Leslie County Jail Contacts
Leslie County jail records are handled through the county detention center and jailer contacts, not through the state court portal alone. The official county elected-officials page lists County Jailer Danny Clark with a county jailer phone number, and it lists Sheriff Delano Huff at the Leslie County Courthouse. The Leslie County KY Jail about page lists direct jail administration, medical, work release, Class D, business-hours, and commissary contacts. Those direct lines matter because the jail site publishes vendor and mail details, but the live inmate roster fields were not fully accessible from the official sources reviewed.
The Leslie County KY Jail about page is the source for the jailer contact, business hours, medical contact, work-release contact, Class D contact, and commissary phone.
That source is useful for custody questions because it separates jail administration from medical, commissary, work-release, and Class D contacts.

The Leslie County elected-officials page is the county source for the sheriff, jailer, Circuit Clerk Carmolitta Morgan-Pace, and other local office contacts.
Leslie County Inmate Lookup Channels
The county jail navigation includes an Inmates link that routes to an external roster portal. Because the live county roster fields and a sample profile were not fully inspected from the reviewed official sources, the safest Leslie County inmate search pattern is to start with the jail link when it is available, then call the jail if the online result is missing, stale, or unclear. For court-driven release, bond, and hearing questions, the jail roster should be paired with the Kentucky Court of Justice public case and docket tools.
The county jail is the local-custody source. Kentucky Online Offender Lookup, often called KOOL, is for people in state prison or Department of Corrections supervision. Kentucky VINELink is a custody-notification channel where agency data is available. Federal custody is checked through the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator, not through Leslie County.
- Open the county jail site and use the Inmates navigation link if it is available.
- Search by the most exact name available. Use alternate spellings if the first search fails.
- Review booking, charge, bond, and custody-status details if the roster displays them.
- Call jail administration at 606-672-1167 when the roster is down, unclear, or missing a recent booking.
- Use court portals or the Circuit Court Clerk for bond orders, court dates, and case dispositions.
Note: No official Leslie County sheriff or jail mobile app was found in the official county, sheriff, or jail sources reviewed.
Leslie County Jail Roster Fields
The county jail roster could not be fully opened for a field-by-field capture, so the table keeps the distinction clear. It lists the county channel and documented alternatives rather than presenting unverified roster controls as facts. For a recent arrest, the county jail and jailer contacts are the first fallback. For a sentenced person, KOOL may be the better fit.
| Channel | Search Field or Method | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| County jail Inmates link | Name search if portal is available | Unknown | Official jail navigation points to an inmate portal, but live fields were not fully inspected. |
| Jail phone fallback | Name, booking date, or case details | Yes for useful help | Call 606-672-1167 for custody status and jail administration routing. |
| KOOL | Last name, first name, PID, location, gender, offender type | At least one identifier | State DOC lookup for sentenced or supervised offenders, not a county pretrial roster. |
| VINELink Kentucky | Name and custody-notification search | Varies | Used for notification where agency data is available. |
| BOP inmate locator | Number search or name search | Yes | Federal custody only, separate from Leslie County jail custody. |
Leslie County Booking Record Details
No live Leslie County sample inmate profile was confirmed from the official sources reviewed. The inventory below lists fields that should be checked when the roster can be opened. Missing information in a public view should not be read as proof that the detail does not exist. Medical, mental-health, protective-custody, juvenile, sealed-warrant, and safety-sensitive facts can be withheld from a public roster.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name and photo | Identifies the person in custody if the public roster displays a booking image. |
| Booking date or time | Shows when the person entered local custody. |
| Booking number | Gives the jail's internal custody reference if displayed. |
| Charges | Lists alleged offenses at booking, which may differ from later court filings. |
| Bond amount or type | Shows posted release terms if the jail view publishes them. |
| Court date or case number | Connects the custody entry to District or Circuit Court records when available. |
| Holds or detainers | May show another agency or jurisdiction has a custody interest. |
| Release date | May appear if the person has left custody and the roster keeps released records. |
Leslie County Inmate Mail Rules
Leslie County KY Jail publishes detailed mail rules. Mail is distributed Monday through Friday. Inmates may correspond with people outside the facility as long as the correspondence does not violate law or a court-ordered injunction from any jurisdiction. If a person receives mail from an inmate while being a direct party to an injunction, the jail asks that person to contact the detention center immediately.
The Leslie County KY Jail mail policy is the source for the envelope, card, photo, package, and writing-material limits.
Those rules are unusually specific, so mail should be prepared exactly as the jail states before it is sent to P.O. Box 1893 in Hyden.
- Use a plain envelope with a clear return address and the correct recipient name and address.
- Do not draw or place artwork on the outside of the envelope.
- Send only one plain greeting card for a holiday or birthday, with no glitter, ribbons, or appliques.
- Do not mail packages, including packages from third-party retail sellers.
- Write with pencil, blue ink, or black ink only.
- Do not use crayons, magic markers, Sharpies, stickers, perfume, lipstick, or whiteout.
Phone, Funds, and Medical Vendors
The jail common-links page points users to separate vendors for inmate phone service, inmate funds, and medical services. Those vendor links are not the same as a court record search. They are practical custody services used after someone is in the jail or after family members need to set up phone access or deposit funds.
The Leslie County KY Jail common links page lists CPC for phone service, CorrectPay for inmate funds, and Southern Health Partners for medical service.
This vendor split helps explain why a jail question may have to go to a service provider while a bond or court-date question goes to the clerk or docket.
| Service | Provider or Contact | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Inmate phone | CPC | Phone account service linked by the jail. |
| Inmate funds | CorrectPay | Deposits and inmate funds service linked by the jail. |
| Medical | Southern Health Partners | Jail medical vendor; jail lists 7743@shpjailmedical.com and 606-672-1164. |
| Commissary | 606-672-1165 | Commissary questions for Leslie County KY Jail. |
| Work release | workrelease.lcdc@outlook.com / 606-672-1167 | Work-release contact listed on the jail about page. |
The Leslie County KY Jail homepage is the central source for the jail site itself.
Use the jail homepage as the starting point when the roster, mail page, and common-links page need to be reached from one official county jail source.
Leslie County Inmate Services
The jail's phone-service source is CPC, which the jail lists as the inmate phone provider.
Phone access is a custody-service issue, so a public case search will not show account balances, call rules, or vendor support details.
The jail's inmate-funds source is CorrectPay, which the jail links for deposits.
Deposit questions should be kept separate from court fines, court costs, and bond questions, which may require the clerk or ePay depending on the case.
Leslie County Visitation Status
No official visitation day-and-time schedule, dress code, child visitor rule, visitor approval form, or video-visitation price was located in the official jail pages reviewed. That gap should shape planning. Call before traveling, especially when a visit depends on an attorney visit window, a religious visit, a child visitor, a holiday schedule, lockdown status, or remote scheduling.
| Visit Topic | Published Status | Best Contact |
|---|---|---|
| In-person visitation schedule | Not located in official jail pages reviewed | 606-672-1167 or 606-672-2637 |
| Video visitation | Price and schedule not located | Call jail administration before using any vendor link. |
| Attorney access | Procedure not located | Call jail administration and coordinate with counsel. |
| Holiday or lockdown changes | Not published in reviewed sources | Confirm the same day before traveling. |
Jail Records and Court Dates
Booking records and court records answer different questions. Jail records address custody, mail, commissary, phone service, housing, and release status. Court records address charges as filed, bond orders, arraignment, pleas, disposition, sentence, and payment obligations. A person arrested in Leslie County may appear first in District Court for arraignment or a probable-cause step, while felony matters can later move to Circuit Court after indictment.
For a court date tied to custody, use the KCOJ docket search with Leslie County and the proper division, then verify important information with Leslie Circuit Court Clerk Carmolitta Morgan-Pace. The KCOJ Leslie County courthouse page places the clerk office at the Leslie County Courthouse, 22010 Main St. Unit 1, Box 7, Hyden, KY 41749, phone 606-672-2505 or 606-672-2503. The docket is a scheduling tool, not the full case file.
Important: A jail booking charge may change after prosecutors and the court act. Verify case status with the clerk.
Restricted Leslie County Inmate Details
Not every custody detail is public. Medical information, mental-health information, protective-custody status, safety-sensitive housing data, juvenile details, sealed-warrant information, and expunged or sealed case facts may be withheld or absent from public tools. A missing roster field may mean the data is restricted, not that the jail has no record.
Open-records requests should be specific and directed to the office that keeps the record. Booking and jail operational records route to jail or sheriff contacts. Court orders, bond terms, dispositions, and case-file copies route to the Circuit Court Clerk. State prison status routes to KOOL, and federal custody routes to BOP.
