The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office patrols Apollo Beach and Ruskin from its District IV office at 508 33rd Street SE in Ruskin. District IV also covers Wimauma and Gibsonton. People arrested in Hillsborough County are usually booked at the Orient Road Jail in Tampa, HCSO’s primary booking facility.

What Happens After an Arrest

A person who stays in custody generally goes before a judge for a first appearance within 24 hours of arrest, where release conditions such as bond are set. Prosecutors with the 13th Circuit State Attorney’s Office decide what charges to file, but their choices are limited by the evidence, the law and the judges who hear each case. Every case is different.
