Fort Bend County Jail Inmate Communication Overview
The Fort Bend County Jail in Richmond, Texas, is the detention facility for Fort Bend County, operated by the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office at 1410 Ransom Road. County contracting records name Securus Technologies as the inmate telephone provider for the detention facility.
Phone calls go through Securus: families create a prepaid AdvanceConnect account or accept collect calls. Video visitation is handled separately through videovisitanywhere.com, where visitors register, schedule and pay for both on-site and from-home visits at least 24 hours in advance.
