MigrantUSA is an independent publisher and is not a law firm. Always verify current details directly with the relevant agency before acting.","ero_field_office":"Harlingen Field Office","faqs":[{"answer":"Yes. ICE’s online detention-facility directory lists the Brooks County Detention Center, at 901 County Road 201 in Falfurrias, Texas, under the Harlingen Field Office; the copy we checked on October 8, 2026 showed an update date of October 6, 2026. The facility does not appear in ICE’s FY2026 detention statistics (file dated July 20, 2026 in its name), a list ICE limits to facilities with at least one person held at the time of its data pull.","question":"Does ICE have a facility page for the Brooks County Detention Center?"},{"answer":"Start with the ICE Online Detainee Locator System at locator.ice.gov. ICE’s facility page says you may call (361) 325-3340 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. for information about a detainee, with the person’s names, any aliases, date of birth and country of birth ready. ICE’s page says detainees cannot receive incoming calls, but an urgent message can be left by calling (361) 325-3340 ext. 130 with the detainee’s full name and alien registration number and your name and phone number.","question":"How do I get information about someone held for ICE in Falfurrias?"},{"answer":"ICE’s facility page, checked October 8, 2026, says ICE visitation is on Sunday and Monday between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., that visits are scheduled by calling (361) 325-3340, and that all family or other social visits are non-contact. ICE’s page says each detainee receives two one-hour blocks of visitation time per week, and that each visit counts as one hour however short it is.","question":"When are family visits at the Brooks County Detention Center?"},{"answer":"ICE’s facility page says money is not to be given directly to the detainee. It says money can be placed on the detainee’s account through the accesscorrections.com website, or by a money order sent through the U.S. Postal Service to 901 County Road 201, Falfurrias, Texas, 78355, with the detainee’s name on the money order. ICE’s page cautions detainees not to have cash sent to them in the mail.","question":"How do I send money to someone held for ICE in Falfurrias?"},{"answer":"Yes. As of October 8, 2026, ICE’s Office of Detention Oversight index lists one report for this facility: a compliance inspection from December 6 to 8, 2016. ODO reviewed 15 standards, found the facility compliant with eight, and cited nine deficiencies in the other seven, including suicide-watch cells that it found structurally deficient. ICE’s FOIA library also holds a September 2007 review by ICE’s Harlingen field office.","question":"Has ICE inspected the Brooks County Detention Center?"},{"answer":"ICE’s own documents name different operators over time. A September 2007 ICE review said the facility was owned and operated by L.C.S. Corrections, and ICE’s December 2016 inspection report said it opened in May 2001 and was owned and operated by the GEO Group Inc. ICE’s facility page, checked October 8, 2026, does not name an operator, and Brooks County’s Sheriff’s Office page does not mention the facility.","question":"Who runs the Brooks County Detention Center?"}],"generated":"2026-10-08","isBasedOn":"https://www.ice.gov/detain/detention-facilities/brooks-county-detention-center","language":"en","license":"https://migrantusa.com/terms/","name":"Brooks County Detention Center","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"MigrantUSA","url":"https://migrantusa.com/"},"source_urls":["https://www.ice.gov/detain/detention-facilities/brooks-county-detention-center","https://www.ice.gov/foia/odo-facility-inspections","https://www.ice.gov/doclib/foia/odo-compliance-inspections/2016-brookscounty.pdf","https://www.ice.gov/doclib/foia/dfra-ice-dro/brookscountydetentioncenterfalfurriastx0917212007.pdf","https://www.ice.gov/foia/library","https://www.ice.gov/identify-and-arrest/287g","https://www.ice.gov/doclib/about/offices/ero/287g/participatingAgencies10092026.xlsx","https://www.ice.gov/detain/detention-management","https://www.ice.gov/doclib/detention/FY26_detentionStats07202026.xlsx","https://www.justice.gov/eoir/immigration-court-administrative-control-list","https://www.co.brooks.tx.us/page/brooks.Sheriff","https://www.ice.gov/detain/detention-management/bonds","https://locator.ice.gov/odls/"],"state":"TX","type":"ice-detention-facility","url":"https://migrantusa.com/ice-detention/brooks-county-detention-center/"}
