Jennifer Road Detention Center
The Jennifer Road Detention Center handles all initial bookings for Glen Burnie arrests. It is located at 131 Jennifer Road in Annapolis, MD 21401. This is a maximum-security intake and pre-trial detention facility with a capacity of about 631 inmates. Built in 1966, it serves as the central processing point for everyone arrested in Anne Arundel County. Call (410) 222-7015 to reach the facility directly.
People arrested in Glen Burnie are taken to Jennifer Road first. A commissioner sets bail or decides on release. If the person stays in custody, they remain at Jennifer Road until their case moves through the courts. Those who get convicted and receive sentences of 18 months or less may transfer to the Ordnance Road facility back in Glen Burnie. Longer sentences lead to a transfer to a state facility under the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services.
Visitation at Jennifer Road is more limited than at Ordnance Road. Inmates get two personal visits per week, each lasting up to one hour (or 30 minutes when it is busy). Only two visitors can come at the same time. All visits are non-contact. Attorney visits are allowed around the clock at Jennifer Road.
