Lookup Kemper County Inmate Records

Kemper County Jail Roster Overview

The official jail roster path begins with the Kemper County inmate roster gateway. The gateway links to current inmates and a 48-hour release view. The current roster page lists names, booking numbers, booking dates, charges, mugshot thumbnails, and profile links. It also has name, date, current, released, newest-to-oldest, oldest-to-newest, and pagination controls. There was no visible text-entry search box on the public roster during the research pass.

Kemper County inmate records on the roster are jail records, not full criminal histories. The sheriff's profile warning tells users to contact detention center staff for the correct bail amount, charges, and case numbers because those details can change after court appearances. Sentenced state prisoners should be searched through the Mississippi Department of Corrections inmate search. Federal sentenced prisoners use the BOP inmate locator, and immigration detainees use the ICE Online Detainee Locator.

Use the Kemper County Inmate Roster

The roster works best when the person's full name or likely booking date is known. Because the Kemper page is browse-based, a common last name may require checking multiple pages and profiles. The 48-hour release option is useful when a person was recently booked, bonded out, or released after a short hold.

1. Open the sheriff's roster gateway and choose current inmates for present custody.
2. Use name or date sort controls and move through pagination when needed.
3. Check the 48-hour release view if the person may have left custody recently.
4. Open "View Profile" for booking number, booking date, mugshot, charges, demographics, and the bond warning.
5. Call 601-743-2255 before posting bond, traveling, or relying on a charge or case number.

The image is useful because it shows the exact browse-and-profile workflow used for Kemper County inmate records.

Kemper County Roster Search Fields

The roster controls are links and tabs instead of a search form. That makes spelling less important than careful browsing. It also means a user may need to check both current and released views before concluding that a person is not listed.

Kemper County Inmate Profile Fields

The sample profile inspected in June 2026 displayed a single booking photo, name, booking number, age, gender, race, city/state address, booking date, and charge list. It did not display housing unit, height, weight, detailed bond type, court date, judge, warrant number, or projected release date. A booking charge is an intake label. It can differ from the charge later filed in court.

The sample booking profile source shows the field layout used in the research pass.

The profile image is limited but important. It shows why bond and case details need confirmation by phone.

Kemper County, State, Federal Search

Kemper County inmate records can live in several systems. The county roster covers local custody and recent releases. MDOC covers sentenced state inmates, including state inmates assigned to regional facilities. BOP covers sentenced federal custody from 1982 to the present. ICE covers current immigration detainee location, not county booking photos or local charges. VINELink can be used for custody search and notification where available.

The MDOC search path is also useful when the county roster still creates confusion. A regional facility can hold state inmates, so the building name alone does not prove that the person is a county pretrial detainee. MDOC profiles focus on sentence and facility assignment. County profiles focus on booking data. BOP and ICE results are narrower still, and neither should be treated as a substitute for the Kemper County jail roster when the case began with a local arrest.

Kemper County Records Request Fallbacks

When the online roster does not answer the question, the fallback chain is phone, in-person contact, then a written public-records request. The sheriff contact page did not show a dedicated public-records form, but the county government sheriff page says the sheriff serves as jailor and keeps a jail docket. Mississippi public-records materials from the Ethics Commission state that public records are open unless exempt, which is the practical basis for asking for a nonexempt booking record, jail-docket entry, or booking photo not shown online.

For a clear request, include the person's full name, any known booking number, approximate booking date, date of birth if known, and the specific record sought. Ask for a jail roster entry, booking sheet, jail docket entry, or photo rather than a broad criminal-history report. For court-filed charges, use the Circuit Clerk or Justice Court rather than the jail. For sentence-credit, release-date, or state prison questions, use MDOC Records instead of the sheriff.

Kemper County Jail Facility

The adult detention facility identified in the research is the Kemper / Neshoba Regional Correctional Facility. It is a regional jail/correctional facility with county, state, and joint county-state capacity. The facility page and MDOC page both identify Byron Walker as warden. The sheriff page names Sheriff James R. Moore and describes staffing, medical access, mail handling, and work-release activity.

Kemper County Booking Process

Official Kemper pages do not publish a minute-by-minute intake timeline. The observed record pattern supports a typical path: arrest, transport, property and identity intake, booking record creation, booking photo, basic demographic entry, charge entry, medical screening or request access, classification, and housing assignment. Classification means the jail's decision about custody level or housing placement. A detainer means another agency may be asking the jail to hold the person.

Bond information should be checked with detention staff. Mississippi bond may involve cash, surety through a licensed bail agent, property bond when allowed, recognizance release, or no-bond status. The roster does not replace the court or jail's current bond file. Court action after first appearance can change the charge, bond, case number, or release authority.

Kemper County Jail Visitation Status

A specific Kemper/Neshoba visitation schedule was not found in official local sources. MDOC's family and friends page says regional facilities are locally operated and may have different practices, so visitors must contact the facility for visitation arrangements before attending. That local exception is important because Kemper/Neshoba holds state inmates but is not a state-operated prison.

Note: Confirm custody, visitation approval, ID rules, and arrival instructions before sending money or driving to the facility.

Contact a Kemper County Inmate

Regular inmate mail uses an out-of-state processing address: Post Office Box 9102, Seminole, FL 33775. The sheriff jail page says all mail must include the offender's booking ID number, and mail is checked for contraband. Legal mail goes to the physical jail address at 374 Stennis Industrial Park Road, DeKalb, MS 39328. For medical needs, the jail page says inmates may request the nurse daily, and a nurse is on call for emergencies.

Kemper County Inmate Funds

Kemper/Neshoba uses Tiger Deposit or Tiger Commissary web deposits for inmate trust funds. The research did not locate local fee amounts, phone vendor details, or video-visit vendor details in official Kemper sources. For state-operated MDOC facilities, money and phone systems may differ, and MDOC notes that regional county prisons are under local administration.

The Tiger Commissary page is the documented deposit channel for this facility.

The deposit screenshot confirms the facility-specific service selector rather than a generic state prison payment route.
