Webster County Jail Roster Status
No official Webster County, Mississippi online jail roster was located in the research. The Webster County Sheriff's Office page lists Sheriff David Gore, the sheriff's office address, phone number, and email, but it does not publish a live inmate search portal, recent-booking feed, detention division page, booking-desk line, visitation calendar, or public mugshot gallery. That makes the local jail record workflow different from counties with vendor rosters.
The absence of a public roster does not mean Webster County inmate records are unavailable. It means current custody must be verified by phone, in person, or by a Mississippi Public Records Act request for a jail docket or booking record. Do not use similarly named Webster County detention pages from other states for this Mississippi county. The research found Kentucky jail material, Kentucky JailTracker framing, and Kentucky directions in nearby search results, so those sources should not be treated as Webster County, Mississippi records.
Search Webster County Jail Records
The practical search path starts with the sheriff. Use the person's full legal name, date of birth if known, approximate arrest date, arresting agency, and any court or warrant information. Ask whether the person is currently in Webster County Jail, was released, posted bond, moved to another county, transferred to MDOC, or is being held under another agency's detainer. If the arrest just happened, ask whether booking has been completed.
- Call the Webster County Sheriff's Office at (662) 258-7701 for current local custody.
- Ask for the custody status, booking status, release status, bond entry, and any transfer note that can be shared.
- If phone information is not enough, request the jail docket entry or booking record in writing.
- Check the MDOC inmate search if the person has been sentenced to state prison.
- Use court sources for formal charges because booking charges can change after filing.
For custody alerts, use VINELink when available and then confirm urgent information with the originating office. Research did not locate a Webster County Sheriff mobile app, app-only roster, warrant app, most-wanted app, or push-alert tool.
Webster County Roster Fields
A county roster field table is limited here because there is no official public Webster County search form. The table still matters because it prevents users from entering information into the wrong county's jail site. For local Webster County custody, the search fields are the identifying facts you give to the sheriff or include in a public-records request.
| Field or fact | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| County jail roster search | N/A | N/A | No official Webster County, Mississippi public roster located. |
| Full legal name | Text | Strongly helpful | Use the name most likely used at booking. |
| Date of birth or age | Date or number | Helpful | Helps distinguish people with similar names. |
| Approximate arrest date | Date | Helpful | Useful for jail docket and booking-record requests. |
| Arresting agency | Text | Helpful | Sheriff, Eupora Police, Maben Police, Mathiston Police, state patrol, or another agency. |
The official MDOC locator does have fields. It accepts first name, last name, or MDOC ID number for state prisoners.
The image below comes from the legacy MS.GOV inmate search page captured in the manifest.
That search is useful after sentencing or MDOC transfer, not for a new Webster County jail booking.
Webster County Inmate Record Fields
No public Webster County inmate-profile sample was found. The most reliable field inventory comes from Mississippi jail-docket law. A jail docket is not a web profile, but it can identify the legal basis for custody and the way custody ended. These details can be more useful than a simple roster card when the question is whether a person was booked, released, transferred, or held under a court order.
When making a records request, use the field names that match the sheriff's legal record. A request for "all inmate information" is broad and may slow the response. A request for the jail docket entry, booking record, release entry, transfer receipt, or bond notation for a named person and date range is clearer. If the case may be sealed, expunged, juvenile, or tied to an open investigation, expect the sheriff or clerk to review whether any part must be withheld or redacted.
| Field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Warrant or mittimus | The legal paper by which the person was received into the jail. |
| Issuing authority | The court or officer tied to the custody authority. |
| Prisoner name | The name recorded for the person held. |
| Date of arrest and commitment | When the person entered jail custody. |
| Cause or crime | The stated reason for confinement. |
| Length of imprisonment | How long the person remained confined when the entry is complete. |
| Release or transfer | How the person left jail, including transfer to penitentiary custody if applicable. |
A jail record may list a booking charge that later changes. For filed charges, arraignment, indictment, and court status, use Webster County Circuit Court, Justice Court, and MEC/PAMEC sources.
Webster County Jail vs MDOC
Webster County Jail and MDOC cover different parts of the custody path. The county jail is the local starting point for arrests, pretrial detention, short local sentences, and local holds. MDOC covers sentenced state inmates after transfer into the state corrections system. Federal and immigration systems are separate again. A person can move from one system to another, so the right search depends on the case stage.
| Custody type | Where to look | Use when |
|---|---|---|
| Pretrial or local jail custody | Webster County Sheriff's Office | The arrest is local, recent, or pending in county court. |
| Sentenced state prisoner | Mississippi Department of Corrections inmate search | The person has been sentenced to MDOC custody. |
| Federal sentenced prisoner | Federal BOP inmate locator | The case is federal and the person is in BOP custody. |
| Immigration custody | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | The person is in ICE custody or may have been transferred to immigration detention. |
| Custody notification | VINELink | Status alerts are needed for release, transfer, or custody changes. |
The image below comes from VINELink, the custody-notification portal listed in the manifest.
VINELink can support notification needs, but the sheriff remains the first source for a fresh Webster County booking.
Webster County Jail Contact
Only one detention facility appears in the Webster County facility map. The sheriff page does not publish a separate detention-center phone, records-unit line, visitor desk, jail administrator contact, or booking desk. Use the official sheriff contact and ask for the correct staff member or process for the custody question.
Webster County Jail
87 Govt. St
Eupora, MS 39744
(662) 258-7701
Operated by the Webster County Sheriff's Office
Sheriff David Gore is listed on the official county sheriff page. The same page gives dgore@webstercountyms.org and says to dial 911 in an emergency. Use routine contact channels for records and custody checks. Emergency calls should go through emergency dispatch.
Booking in Webster County Jail
Webster County does not publish a local booking-process page. A conservative county-jail sequence is arrest, transport, intake, property inventory, identification, booking photo where agency practice requires, warrant or commitment paperwork, medical and safety screening, bond or hold review, and either housing or release. The sheriff's jail docket is the record that ties the person to the authority for custody.
New-booking visibility is not published. There is no stated refresh rate because no county roster was found. Call the sheriff if the arrest is recent. If the person does not appear through informal contact and the record is still needed, ask for the jail docket entry, booking record, release entry, or transfer record. Formal charges should be checked later through court records because a booking charge is not always the final court charge.
Note: A bond on one Webster County charge may not release a person who has another agency hold.
Webster County Visitation Rules
No official Webster County Jail visitation schedule, video visitation vendor, visitor approval rule, dress code, lobby hours, or attorney-visit schedule was located. Because similarly named Webster County jail pages from Kentucky publish rules that do not apply to Mississippi, those rules should not be imported. Confirm the schedule directly before travel.
| Visit type | Published schedule | Research-safe action |
|---|---|---|
| In-person social visits | Not published | Call sheriff before arriving. |
| Video visits | Not published | No official vendor located. |
| Attorney visits | Not published | Confirm through jail or court. |
| Visitor ID and dress code | Not published | Ask what ID, clothing, and property limits apply. |
Before entering the facility, ask about phones, bags, keys, medicine, paperwork, money, and prohibited property. Also ask whether minors can visit and what adult accompaniment is required.
Webster County Mail and Money
No official inmate-mail format, commissary vendor, phone vendor, money-deposit portal, kiosk rule, book vendor, photo rule, or fee schedule was located for Webster County Jail. Use the official address only after confirming the correct mail format and whether a booking number is required. Sending the wrong item or using a nonapproved vendor can delay or return mail.
| Item | Published rule | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Inmate mail | Not published | Exact name format, booking number, facility address, and banned items. |
| Commissary deposits | Not published | Whether funds are accepted by kiosk, mail, phone, or vendor. |
| Phone deposits | Not published | Vendor, fees, account setup, and refund rules. |
| Books and photos | Not published | Whether items must come from a publisher or approved vendor. |
Funds and mail should not be sent until custody is confirmed. A person may have bonded out, been released by court order, or moved to MDOC before mail or money reaches the jail. Ask whether the jail accepts money orders, cash, kiosk deposits, phone deposits, or online payments, and ask whether any fee applies. If the facility does not accept a deposit method, use the option the jail gives directly rather than a third-party result found in search.
