When the call comes that someone you love is in the Tuscola County Jail in Caro, the fear and the questions pile up fast. We are here to take that weight off you. Bail My Tail is a family business, started in 1982 and still run by Gene Butler and his son Justin, and we treat your family the way we would want ours treated. The Tuscola County Jail is located at 420 Court St. STE 1, Caro, MI 48723, and it operates 24 hours a day, which is exactly why we keep our phones on around the clock. Bond amounts in Tuscola County are set by the arraigning judge, and once they are, we step in to post a state-regulated surety bond at Michigan's 10% premium, so you pay a tenth of the bail and we guarantee the rest to the court. You do not need to figure out where or how to post on your own, that is what we handle every day. After the bond goes in, release usually takes two to eight hours, depending on how full the jail is that night. If you would like to confirm the booking or bond amount yourself, the jail's number is 989-673-8161. When you are ready, call Bail My Tail at our 24/7 line 877-869-8245, our Flint office at 810-234-5776, or our Detroit office at 313-345-9255.
