Bolivar County Jail Roster Status
No official Bolivar County sheriff jail roster, current-inmate list, booking report, or public inmate search page was located on the official county or sheriff website. The county correctional facility page lists the regional facility, warden, phone, programs, state-inmate description, and visitation link, but it does not publish a searchable custody roster. That absence changes the search process. The best first step for a recent arrest is direct contact with the Bolivar County Regional Correctional Facility or the Bolivar County Sheriff's Office.
Bolivar County inmate records also have a state-custody layer. The same facility is listed by MDOC as Bolivar County Correctional Facility, and MDOC fact sheets show a current regional-facility population count. That means a sentenced state inmate may be visible through the MDOC inmate search even when a newly booked county inmate is not searchable online. Court-filed charges are separate again. Those records belong with the Circuit Clerk, County Court, MEC, and prosecutor path.
How to Search Bolivar County Inmates
A Bolivar County inmate records search should begin with the kind of custody question being asked. If the person was just arrested by the sheriff or a municipal police department, use the facility and sheriff channels first. If the person was sentenced to Mississippi state custody, use MDOC. If the goal is notice of release or transfer, use Mississippi VINE. If the goal is the charge filed in court, use Circuit Clerk and MEC records rather than relying only on booking information.
- Call Bolivar County Regional Correctional Facility at 662-843-7478 for current custody and visit-routing questions.
- Call Bolivar County Sheriff's Office at 662-843-5378 for sheriff records, arresting-agency questions, or the jail records request path.
- For in-person or mail contact, use 2792 MS Hwy 8 West, Cleveland, MS 38732, and include the person's full name, date of birth if known, and arrest date.
- Search MDOC by name or MDOC ID for sentenced state inmates or state offenders housed in a regional facility.
- Use Mississippi VINE for custody status notification, then use court records to confirm filed charges and case events.
Note: No official Bolivar County sheriff app or app-only roster was found during the required app sweep.
Bolivar County Inmate Search Fields
Since no county roster form was located, there is no confirmed Bolivar County jail roster search-field table. The available official field table comes from the MDOC locator, which matters for Bolivar County because the regional facility houses state inmates. Name search is useful when the MDOC ID is not known. ID search is better when paperwork, family records, or court material includes the number.
| Field label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search Criteria | Radio | Yes | Select Name or ID Number. |
| Last Name | Text | Required for name search | No wildcard guidance was located on the form. |
| First Name | Text | Optional with last name | Helps narrow common names. |
| MDOC ID Number | Text | Required for ID search | Use the numeric MDOC ID if known. |
| SEARCH | Button | Yes | Submit after entering name or ID number. |
The federal and immigration tools use different fields. The BOP by-name locator includes first, middle, and last name plus race, sex, and age. USAGov describes ICE ODLS searches by A-number or by name, country of birth, and birth date.
What Bolivar County Jail Records Show
Because an official online Bolivar County inmate profile was not found, do not assume a web page will show a mugshot, bond amount, housing unit, or court date. Mississippi jail docket law gives a more reliable view of what a sheriff custody record is built to track. Miss. Code Section 19-25-63 requires the sheriff to keep a jail docket with the warrant or mittimus, prisoner name, receipt and commitment dates, cause of imprisonment, custody authority, custody duration, and release or discharge information.
| Field | What it can show |
|---|---|
| Name | The person received or placed in jail. |
| Warrant or mittimus | The writ, warrant, or court commitment that authorized custody. |
| Received, arrest, or commitment date | Key dates tied to jail entry and custody authority. |
| Cause of imprisonment | The legal reason for jail custody, not always the final court charge. |
| Release or discharge | How the person left jail, transferred, or was sent onward. |
| MDOC location or ID | State-custody identifiers when the person is an MDOC offender. |
Bolivar County Jail Contact Card
The main contact point for local custody is the Bolivar County Regional Correctional Facility. The sheriff office uses the same highway address, but a different phone number. Use the facility line for custody, visiting, and jail routing questions. Use the sheriff line for sheriff records, arresting-agency questions, and public-record request routing when no public online roster answers the question.

Bolivar County Inmate Visitation Schedule
The county publishes a dormitory and zone-based visitation schedule for the regional correctional facility. It is one of the strongest local details in the research because it shows actual housing labels such as C1, C2, C3, Intake, County Holding, C4, County Female C5, Green/White, S dorms, and Joint County-State. The schedule is useful, but it is not a public housing roster. Confirm the person's custody and current visit status before traveling.
| Housing or zone | Visit day | Visit time |
|---|---|---|
| Dormitories C1, C2, C3, and Intake, County Men | 1st and 3rd Tuesdays | 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. |

Bolivar County Jail and State Locator
Bolivar County inmate records can move from one system to another. A person arrested by Cleveland Police, Merigold Police, Mound Bayou Police, Rosedale Police, Shaw Police, Shelby Police, or sheriff deputies may start in local custody. After sentencing, the MDOC locator becomes the better route. If a federal case is involved, the BOP inmate locator covers sentenced federal inmates from 1982 to present, while U.S. Marshals may handle pretrial federal custody logistics. ICE uses its own locator for immigration detention.
| Question | Start here | Do not confuse it with |
|---|---|---|
| Was someone just booked locally? | Facility or sheriff phone route | MDOC state sentence search |
| Is someone sentenced to state custody? | MDOC inmate search | County booking records |
| Do victims need release notice? | Mississippi VINE or MS SAVIN | A court docket alone |
| Are formal charges filed? | Circuit Clerk or MEC | Initial booking charge |
| Is it federal or immigration custody? | BOP, U.S. Marshals, or ICE | Bolivar County roster tools |
Bolivar County Booking and Intake
No official Bolivar County booking handbook was located, so the safest intake description comes from the local custody contacts and Mississippi jail docket rules. A person may be arrested by the sheriff or by a municipal police department, transported to the regional correctional facility for county custody, and processed through intake. Identity, property, custody authority, arrest or commitment date, and reason for custody should be documented through the jail record process. The county visitation schedule shows that housing can involve County Men, County Holding, County Female, Intake, Green/White, S dormitories, and Joint County-State.
Medical and mental-health details are limited in local public sources. Mississippi law requires sheriff action when a prisoner needs medical or surgical aid, and MDOC FAQ material says state inmates are evaluated at intake and housed where services can meet the person's needs. Booking visibility is separate from court filing. To track what happens after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest through Circuit Clerk, MEC, County Court, and DA channels.
Bolivar County Inmate Mail and Funds
Official local pages did not publish a full mail handbook, phone vendor rule page, commissary fee table, or Bolivar-specific deposit limit. For state inmates, MDOC says inmate banking money transfers are accepted online through Premier Services and in person through Western Union agent locations. MDOC FAQ material also warns that commissary access can be restricted during classification or discipline. Confirm custody and eligibility before sending money.
MDOC Family and Friends material identifies regular U.S. mail and telephone as communication methods for state inmates, with outgoing-only inmate phones and monitored or recorded personal calls. The research found vendor support references for phone services, but the official county page did not link a vendor rule page in readable text. Treat vendor pages as support tools, not as the controlling Bolivar County jail policy.
Note: Call 662-843-7478 before sending funds, mail, or visit requests because custody status and housing restrictions can change.
Request Bolivar County Booking Records
When no online roster answers the question, use a specific public-records request. Ask for non-sealed adult booking, jail docket, or custody records, and route the request to the sheriff or correctional facility unless the question concerns court-filed charges. Include the person's full name, date of birth if known, date of arrest or booking, arresting agency, case number if known, and the record type requested. Mississippi public bodies may redact or withhold juvenile, sealed, expunged, medical, security, active investigative, or protected personal information.
For court records, use the Bolivar County Circuit Clerk and MEC path instead of asking the jail to explain the full case. Circuit Clerk Judith D. Thompson's office serves Circuit, County, and Youth court record custody, with offices in Cleveland and Rosedale. The online payment and searchable-records path asks users to choose District 1 or District 2. That district detail is important in Bolivar County because the county has two courthouse anchors.
