St. Louis County, via our Department of Justice Services (Justice Services), is responsible for the overall management, operation, and security of the St. Louis County Jail. Our Community Corrections division works diligently with those that are incarcerated to provide re-entry services. However, St. Louis County also offers a pretrial release program (Pretrial Services). Pretrial Services is an alternative to incarceration and provides persons under supervision, unable to post bail, the opportunity to be interviewed to determine eligibility for release from custody and supervised in the community. Community Corrections Officers utilize validated risk assessments for those charged with bondable felony and misdemeanor offenses.
