Where To Ask In Lawrence County
The Lawrence County Sheriff is the first official contact for a county-jail status, release entry, or booking record. The office’s published administrative hours differ from round-the-clock dispatch and jail intake. Records staff may not be available merely because the jail is operating. Call during the office window to confirm the current custodian, accepted request method, and any fee estimate before mailing or visiting.
Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office and Jail1565 F. E. Sellers Highway
Monticello, MS 39654
Phone: 601-587-2961
Administrative hours: Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Dispatch and jail intake: 24 hours
The physical address is supported by current governmental and facility references, but older sources use P.O. Box 816. Confirm the address before a visit or mailing. The Sheriff has no verified public 24-hour or 72-hour release feed, so ask for the booking or release record and whether the person went to the community or another custodian.
- For a released person or release record, begin with the full Lawrence County search and request route.
- For supervision after state release, use the parole and probation page.
- For a recent county-jail event, follow the one-day release-log request.
- For a tentative date or alert, check projected release dates and VINELink notifications.
- For a city arrest, contact Monticello Police at 601-587-7732 and ask whether a county booking occurred.
- For a state prisoner, use MDOC Inmate Search or Parolee Search and the current written records procedure.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator and the responsible agency’s contact channel.
