The bond shall be based on each charge filed against a Defendant. For example, a Defendant charged with OWI (Class A Misdemeanor) and Resisting Law Enforcement (Class A Misdemeanor) shall post either a bail bond (commonly called a surety bond) in the amount of $13,000.00 or the 10% cash alternative in the amount of $1,300.00.

The Corrections Division of the Gibson County Sheriff’s Office maintains the efficient, safe operation of the Gibson County Jail.
The Gibson County Jail takes security seriously. A total of over 100 video cameras continuously monitor all activity within the jail and work release facilities 24 hours a day. All doors and lights are controlled from within the Communications Center. These are connected to a large diesel-powered generator and a computer UPS power supply system that ensures the safe operation of the jail in the event of a power outage.
The Gibson County Jail is one of only 10 jails in the state of Indiana that is accredited by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. In October 1997, the entire facility became a tobacco product-free facility.
