Quay County Detention Center

Quay County Detention Center, located in Tucumcari, NM, is a medium-security county jail operated by the Quay County Sheriff's Office. It serves as a holding facility for inmates awaiting trial or sentencing, with most sentenced inmates staying for less than two years. The facility accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, as well as the US Marshal's Service and the Tucumcari Police Department.

Quay County Detention Center provides basic services for inmates, including visitation, mail correspondence, and access to phone calls through a phone program. The facility also offers work release programs for eligible inmates, allowing them to leave the jail during the day for employment purposes. Trustees, who are inmates working in various roles within the jail, receive compensation and may earn time off their sentence. It is important to note that all phone calls are recorded and can be used as evidence, so discussing legal matters is discouraged.
