The Dalhart Unit is a Texas Department of Criminal Justice prison for men located in unincorporated Hartley County, Texas.[1] The unit is along Farm to Market Road 998 and near U.S. Highway 54, Шаблон:Convert west and Шаблон:Convert south of Dalhart.[2] It is located next to Dalhart Municipal Airport. As of 2000 Dalhart serves minimum and medium security inmates.[3]
History
The unit opened in February 1995.[2] The unit was named in memory of R.C. Johnson, a longtime sheriff of Dallam County, and Steve Booth, a Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) trooper who was killed.[4] In September 2007 62% of the prison's job positions were filled, making the Dalhart Unit among the most under-staffed units in the state. In October 2007 an entire wing of the prison was closed because there were too few officers to properly monitor the wing.[5] Staffing is a constant problem, press reports indicated that in 2018, the facility was at 51% staffing.[6]
