Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility Overview
Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility is listed in the research at 19351 US Hwy 49 North, Tutwiler, MS 38963, with phone (662) 345-6567. The operator is CoreCivic / Tallahatchie County. HCSO location codes for Harris County overflow inmates are CT55 and CT56.
This is a contract correctional facility used in the Harris County custody network. It should not be treated as the county jail's primary intake location or as a TDCJ prison page. HCSO search controls whether a Harris County inmate is currently assigned to CT55 or CT56.
Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility Capacity and Population
The Harris County research did not locate an official current capacity or Harris County headcount for Tallahatchie. TCJS counted Harris County's local, contract, and housed-elsewhere population together in the June 1, 2026 snapshot, but did not break out this facility in the extracted research. Use CT55 or CT56 in the roster as the person-specific confirmation.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility

Deposits are through Western Union / Send2Corrections and require the commissary number plus first and last name.

Transfer and Intake at Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility
A Harris County inmate housed at Tallahatchie has already gone through HCSO booking, medical and mental-health screening, classification, and records entry. The key public question is whether HCSO still lists the person under CT55 or CT56, because vendor, mail, and attorney-video procedures depend on the current location.
About Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility
Tallahatchie is included here because Harris County official materials identify it as a contract destination for overflow inmates. Recent Harris County reporting has discussed ongoing outsourcing, but this page uses HCSO roster location and published facility rules rather than assuming a fixed population or long-term assignment.
Note: Confirm CT55 or CT56 and current mail rules before sending anything to Mississippi.
Tallahatchie Records and Movement
Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility is in Mississippi, but the people described here are Harris County overflow inmates when HCSO assigns CT55 or CT56. The Harris County roster remains the starting point for identity, SPN, and location. Court activity, bond, release timing, and charge status remain connected to Harris County agencies and courts unless another jurisdiction has taken custody.
The researched service rules are different from downtown Houston. HCSO mail material says Tallahatchie inmate mail is photocopied, originals are stored for 30 days, and hard-copy publications, books, and packages are not accepted. Deposits use Western Union or Send2Corrections and require the commissary number plus first and last name. Attorney video visits are listed Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with no visits at 10 a.m. or 2 p.m., and must be requested on official letterhead.
Because this is an out-of-state contract placement, verify the location code before each action. A move back to Harris County or to another contract facility can change the mail path, phone system, deposit instructions, and visit availability. The safest workflow is HCSO search, facility confirmation, then vendor or travel planning.
Mail rules are the biggest difference for Tallahatchie. Do not send books, publications, or packages based on Harris County Jail assumptions. Use the current CoreCivic or HCSO instructions tied to CT55 or CT56. For older custody records, request the Harris County jail record and use the Mississippi facility only for local housing or service confirmation. If the question is about court, bond, or disposition, use Harris County court and offense inquiry channels. For services, confirm the commissary number before using Western Union or Send2Corrections. Keep the CT code with any notes because it explains why a Harris County inmate is outside Texas. That code should be included in any follow-up call or written request. It also helps distinguish Tallahatchie from LaSalle and Natchitoches contract placements. Do not mix the mail rules between them. Confirm before sending funds. Recheck HCSO before attorney video requests. Recheck before sending mail.
The access chain is Harris County roster, Tallahatchie facility confirmation, then the mail, attorney visit, or deposit step. That order avoids stale transfer information. Save the confirmation details for later calls. Check again before travel.
