This is a private reference, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Direct those questions to the appropriate public office.
County Custody and Records
For a county-custody question, booking record, or a request for a releasable photograph, contact the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office or JCCF. The sheriff’s administrative office and Public Records route are at 350 Portsmouth Street, Jackson, Ohio 45640. The jail uses 372 Portsmouth Street for incarcerated-person mail, so that separate address should not be used as the public-record office address.

Where to Send the Question

- A focused booking sheet or releasable county photo: JCSO Public Records.
- Current county custody: JCCF at 740-288-1338.
- A Municipal Court case, arraignment, or warrant verification: 740-286-2718 or the official court tools.
- A city police incident report: the Jackson, Wellston, or Oak Hill police department that created it.
- A state-sentenced or supervised person: the Ohio DRC offender search.
- A federal or immigration custody question: the BOP or ICE locator that matches the custody system.
