Where to Check First

The official county sheriff page lists Sheriff Jerimaine Gooch and separates the sheriff office phone from the jail phone. The page did not publish public counter hours, so call before visiting or mailing any record request.

For current local custody, start with the jail. For sheriff office questions that are not immediate custody checks, use the office number listed by the county.

• For someone held in the county jail, use the jail phone and the jail inmate records page for the local lookup path.
• For booking photos, use the jail or sheriff records path described on the jail roster mugshots page.
• For charges filed after arrest, use the county courts page, Circuit Clerk, Justice Court routing, and court records after a jail arrest.
• For the local detention facility, use the Yalobusha County Jail page listed in the footer.
• For a sentenced state prisoner, search the Mississippi Department of Corrections inmate locator.
• For custody alerts, check Mississippi VINE.
• For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator or the ICE detainee locator.

Court and Records Routing

Yalobusha County court business can involve Water Valley and Coffeeville addresses. The county's courts page is the official starting point for court office routing, and the Circuit Clerk page explains that the clerk receives and files indictments, motions, lawsuits, and other papers in civil and criminal cases.

For written public-records requests, use the Mississippi Public Records Act framework and identify the record type, person's full name, date of birth if known, arrest date, and agency involved. The sheriff or court office can tell you what delivery method, fee, or redaction rule applies.
