People waiting for trial on Scott charges, state inmates serving time, and some federal prisoners. The jail's number is 502-863-7880. Use the full name given at booking on every letter and deposit, or it may be returned.

The roster lists current inmates and charges. VINELink tells you if someone is still held and alerts you when they leave. Court dates show on KYeCourts public access. Very recent arrests may not appear yet.

Visits are held Wednesday and Saturday and last 30 minutes. Schedule one day ahead by calling the jail Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. Two visitors may be in the room at once. Bring photo ID and follow the dress code. See our visitation guide.

Cash bonds up to $10,000 are accepted at the jail 24 hours a day. Larger or property bonds go through the circuit clerk at 502-863-0474 on weekdays, so a bond over $10,000 set on a Friday night may have to wait for Monday. Our bail guide has details.

Send a money order, use the kiosk in the jail lobby, or deposit online through the jail's payment service, up to $1,000. Commissary orders are filled within 7 days. Remember the $50 booking fee may be taken from the account. See our money guide and commissary guide.

Inmates make outgoing calls only. Family can set up a prepaid account with the jail's phone company at 800-844-6591. Calls are recorded and may be used in court, so avoid talking about the case. See our phone guide and messaging guide.

The Marshals decide which federal prisoners stay here. A federal arrestee first appears for a detention hearing at the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Kentucky, 101 Barr Street, Lexington, KY 40507, 859-233-2503. After sentencing, search the federal prison locator.

1. ICE delivers Form I-247A to the jail.
2. When Scott charges no longer keep the person in, staff may hold them up to 48 hours past release.

Release paperwork takes some time after the bond is posted or the judge signs the order. Property, clothing and any account balance are returned, minus fees the jail is allowed to collect. Plan a ride from North Court Street and call 502-863-7880 to ask about timing.

Corrections chooses a prison after an intake review. Some Class D inmates stay in county jails for their whole sentence, and some are moved between jails. Use the KOOL lookup to search by name, or see our prisons in Kentucky for prison addresses and phone numbers.
