About the Leflore County Jail

Located within the Leflore County Justice Center, and with both the Justice Court and the Sheriff’s Department, the 180-bed Leflore County Jail provides short term housing for offenders arrested in the county on felony or misdemeanor charges. The single story, red brick facility with an attached white and blue series of buildings surrounded by razor wire, is located on Baldwin Road in Sidon, Mississippi.

Recently renamed the Fredrick L “Ricky” Banks Justice Center, it houses inmates only during their booking and pretrial period, with those who are sentenced being transported to the Delta Correctional Facility which is located directly next to the Leflore County Jail.

Upon intake, the booking process is completed, which includes a medical screening, fingerprinting and mugshots, DNA sample, along with an assessment to determine security needs, medical needs, mental health requirements, and housing assignment. 

Staff is available to transport all inmates to court dates and any medical appointments or emergency needs, as well as inspecting all mail for contraband, receiving commissary funds and other money for inmates, maintaining the safety of the community and the security of the facility, and other tasks. 

The Leflore County Jail also provides several other services to inmates including basic needs in meals, laundry, and hygiene items, and programs including AA, counseling, religious programs, education, recreation, and opportunities to grow social and life skills. 

To determine if an offender is located at the jail, contact the office by calling 662-451-7294.

During their stay at the jail, all offenders will be provided with meals and recreation, opportunities for developing life and social skills, and both medical and mental health care.

Mail is able to be delivered by the Post Office only, and must have full return address to be accepted, then will be checked and have all contraband removed, or it will be refused. Not until it is clear of contraband and declared safe to enter the building will it be provided to the inmate it is addressed to.

Phones are found in housing units, which allows inmates to make collect calls to their family, and their friends.

Inmate Money Accounts

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Leflore County Jail?

How Do I put Money on an Inmate's Commissary Account in the Leflore County Jail to Purchase Phone Cards?

There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:

Option 1 - Dropping Money at the Leflore County Jail
Bring money to the jail in person. 
Either the jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment or you will use the NCIC self-serve kiosk in the lobbies that accepts cash, debit or credit cards.

Option 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Leflore County Jail uses NCIC to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. NCIC charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.



Option 3 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail
Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union.
Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.  Mail it to the Leflore County Jail address on this page, or to the address below if it is different than the facility address.
