How to Find an Inmate at Jackson County Regional Correctional Center
Members of the public can look for someone in custody by using the official inmate search link provided on this page for the facility’s roster. County jail rosters typically list the person’s name, booking date, charges, bond information when available, and current custody status. Records are usually entered after the booking and intake process, which can take several hours, so a newly arrested person may not appear right away.

Information can change as court hearings occur, charges are updated, bond is posted, or the person is released or transferred.
