The Holmes County FL Jail and Work Camp is a medium-security detention center located at 3207 Lonny Lindsey Dr Bonifay, FL which is operated locally by the Holmes County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Holmes County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Bonifay Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.

Most men and women incarcerated here have not been tried by the Courts and so it must be presumed innocent until such time as guilt has been determined by the law. Some of the inmates here have been tried and are sentenced to County and/or State inmates. This county jail is a multi-faceted environment. Not only jail, but they also have a full kitchen facility which prepares in excess of 50,000 meals per year; we have a work-release center that helps local agencies, a 12 step drug program, and medical staff. Our corrections officers are here to facilitate an inmate's stay and are tasked with not only security but providing transport services, mail delivery, visitation coordination, intake, food delivery, and general care.
