George County Facility Overview
George County Regional Correctional Facility is also described in official materials as George County Jail and George/Greene County Correctional Facility. The George County Sheriff's Department and Sheriff's Office operate the local jail function, while the Mississippi Department of Corrections lists the site as a regional facility. That mix matters for an inmate lookup. A recent arrestee, a county detainee, and a state inmate housed regionally can all be tied to the same Lucedale correctional campus, but they may not appear in the same record system for the same reason.
The facility holds adult men and women. Research from the January 16, 2026 PREA final audit describes a minimum to medium custody setting with no youthful inmates. The audit also lists twelve housing units and a facility type of "Prison / Jail." Public roster entries inspected for George County showed arresting or holding agencies that included the George County Sheriff's Office, Mississippi Department of Corrections, and Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics. Those fields help show why a single roster entry may reflect a local arrest, a court order, a parole matter, or state corrections custody.
The MDOC facility listing for George/Greene County Correctional Facility identifies the same regional site used for state correctional placement and provides directory context for the George County facility.
Use the MDOC listing as the state-facility cross-check, not as a replacement for the sheriff roster when the person is a current county jail detainee.
George County Inmate Capacity
The strongest sourced population numbers for George County Regional Correctional Facility come from the PREA final audit published through MDOC. The report gives a designed capacity of 460, a current population of 444 on the first day of the October 2025 onsite audit, and a 427 average daily population for the prior twelve months. The same audit says the facility had not been over capacity during the prior twelve months. Those figures are facility statistics, not a live jail roster count.
| Measure | Figure | Source Context |
|---|---|---|
| Designed capacity | 460 | PREA final audit, January 16, 2026 |
| Population on first audit day | 444 | Onsite audit period in October 2025 |
| Average daily population | 427 | Prior twelve months in PREA audit |
| Housing units | 12 | PREA final audit facility profile |
George County Inmate Lookup
For current county jail custody, start with the official George County inmate search. The sheriff site uses an OCV roster feed that can be searched and sorted, with recent entries listed by booking date by default. A roster item can show the inmate name, inmate ID, age, race, sex, height, weight, hair and eye color, booking date and time, arresting agency, charge descriptions, statute numbers when supplied, and a booking image. Bond amount, court date, housing unit, and release date were not visible in the inspected public feed.
For state custody, use the MDOC inmate search. A person sentenced to MDOC may still be housed at this regional facility, but the statewide DOC locator is the better index for sentenced prisoners and state records. For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator. For immigration detention, use ICE ODLS. Those federal tools do not replace the George County jail roster for a local arrest.
- Open the sheriff inmate search for a current George County jail or regional facility roster check.
- Search by name or browse recent entries sorted by booking date.
- Read the arresting agency and charge text to tell whether the entry is a local arrest, court hold, parole matter, or other agency placement.
- Check MDOC by name or MDOC ID if the person may be sentenced or listed as a state inmate.
For more detail on the roster fields, the broader George County jail inmate records page separates county roster data from court, DOC, federal, and notification channels.
George County Facility Contact
Use the correctional facility contact for custody, booking, visitation-list, jail-call, and facility-arrival questions. Use the sheriff's Cox Street office for records requests, accident reports, fingerprinting, process service, and administrative records. The two locations are separate in official map data, so visitors should not assume the sheriff's administrative suite is the jail entrance.

George County Visitation Schedule
Visitation at George County Regional Correctional Facility is built around approved visitor lists and housing zones. All inmates must complete a visitor application or list before visits are accepted. County inmates may update lists every sixty days after initial entry into the facility. State inmates may update visitation lists once a year on the MDOC custody entry date after Central Mississippi Correctional Facility processing. Visitors should confirm the housing zone before travel because the schedule depends on the inmate's placement.
The official visitation schedule source separates state inmate visits from county inmate visits by weekend, time, and zone.
The schedule should be read with the dress code and visitor-list rules, since a correct time slot does not override approval, identification, or clothing requirements.
| Population | Timing | Housing Zones |
|---|---|---|
| State inmates | 1st and 3rd Saturday, 8:00-11:00 a.m. | A Zone |
| State inmates | 1st and 3rd Saturday, 1:00-4:00 p.m. | B Zone |
| State inmates | 2nd and 4th Saturday, 8:00-11:00 a.m. or 1:00-4:00 p.m. | C and D Zones |
| State inmates | 1st and 3rd Sunday, 8:00-11:00 a.m. or 1:00-4:00 p.m. | E, G, H, and I Zones |
| County inmates | 2nd Sunday, 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. by slot | F, L, K, and holding zones |
| County worker | Any state inmate visitation day | J Zone |
Dress rules include shirts and shoes, no tank tops or bare midriffs, no shorts, skirts, or dresses above the knee, no workout or yoga pants, no see-through clothing, no hats or bandanas, and limited jewelry. The rules apply to children as well.
George County Mail and Money
County inmate mail is handled through electronic delivery. Physical mail is generally not handed to inmates, except legal or approved privileged mail. Letters, legal mail, privileged mail, or outgoing inmate mail with a proper return address use the City Tele Coin processing address in Bossier City, Louisiana. City Tele Coin processes and uploads remote mail within twenty-four hours of receipt, and inmates view digital copies on kiosks or tablets. Mail with a wrong address, wrong postage, or unverifiable inmate can be returned to sender.
Commissary funds for George County Regional Correctional Facility are accepted only through Tiger Deposits, according to the official jail page. Commissary is weekly, and the published weekly spending limit is $150 per offender. City TeleCoin also provides phone, tablet, and video-chat services. Calls are limited to fifteen minutes and are subject to monitoring and recording, with different per-minute rates for state and county inmates.

George County Booking Intake
Booking at George County Regional Correctional Facility begins after arrest, court order, agency transfer, or commitment. The public roster shows a new inmate ID or booking ID, booking date and time, arresting agency, demographics, charge blocks, and a booking image when the entry is available. Mississippi jail docket law also explains why the sheriff keeps deeper custody records beyond the public feed, including warrant or mittimus, prisoner name, cause of imprisonment, time held, and release or discharge information.
Intake can include identification, search and property handling, photo, fingerprints, medical and mental-health screening, classification, housing assignment, phone or tablet access, and the visitor-list process. Classification means the custody and housing decision made after intake. A delay in public display can come from medical screening, data entry, transfer timing, or another agency hold. If a person was just arrested and does not appear online, call the facility before assuming release.
Note: Confirm custody, housing zone, and visitation approval with GCRCF before traveling to Industrial Park Road.
George County Records Context
George County Regional Correctional Facility is the custody point, while the Sheriff's Office handles records requests and many administrative services. The official records page says a completed records request form must be submitted in person, full payment must be made before retrieval, and all records must be retrieved in person by the requester or an authorized law-firm representative. Open or active investigation records are not released until closed or resolved, except through discovery.
That distinction matters for families and researchers. The roster can confirm current custody and basic booking facts, but the court clerk, Justice Court, Circuit Clerk, District Attorney, MDOC, BOP, ICE, or VINELink may be the better source for charges, court status, sentenced custody, federal custody, immigration custody, or notification registration. The George County Sheriff's Office handles the records and administrative role separately from the jail operation.
