The Public Information Office serves as the Sheriff’s Office liaison to the news media and the community. The Office works to establish a positive, professional relationship between the agency and local, state, and national media, and engages citizens to strengthen relationships with the communities we serve and to enhance public safety.
The Public Information Office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The office is closed on county holidays. After hours, emails and phone messages will be returned after 8 a.m. the following business day.
All written records requests, including arrest affidavits and event reports, may be emailed to the Public Information Office at fbcsopio@fortbendcountytx.gov. Records are not available on the weekend and are never disseminated from the Fort Bend County Jail. The Records Division will review and process all requested records.
For the Media
Routine media inquiries and records requests are handled as expeditiously as possible during normal business hours. After business hours and on weekends, a public information officer (PIO) is always on call for emergencies and for major breaking news events. On-call personnel should be contacted only in situations of high importance.
