Jefferson County Inmate Records

Jefferson County Jail Records

No official Jefferson County online jail roster or inmate search page was located on the county website in the research materials. The official Jefferson County Jail page provides jail contact information, phone extension options, visitation scheduling, deposit methods, property rules, weekender fees, medical-care notes, and restrictions, but it does not publish a searchable county inmate roster in accessible text. Current county custody questions should therefore start with the jail phone system and, where useful, Pennsylvania VINE.

The jail is at 578 Service Center Rd., Brookville, PA 15825. The main number is 814-849-1933 and the fax is 814-849-2144. The phone menu lists General Information as extension 1, Shift Commander's Desk as extension 2, Records as extension 3, Medical Department as extension 4, Training Officer's Desk as extension 5, and Administration as extension 6. For an inmate-record lookup, Records and General Information are the most direct official phone channels.

Jefferson County Jail Contact

The jail mission statement in the research says the facility confines persons committed to custody in a safe, secure facility, provides opportunities for inmates to acquire skills and values needed to become productive law-abiding citizens, and respects crime victims' rights. That local mission language matters because the jail page is more service oriented than roster oriented. It tells the public how to schedule visits, fund accounts, handle property, and ask about custody, but it does not expose booking profiles online.

Jefferson County Inmate Lookup

Use a fallback chain because there is no official county roster. First, call the Jefferson County Jail and choose Records or General Information. Second, use Pennsylvania VINE for custody status and notification records. Third, use the Pennsylvania DOC Inmate/Parolee Locator only if the person may be in state prison or on state parole. Fourth, use the criminal court docket when the question is about charges, bail, hearings, sentence, costs, or court disposition rather than current jail custody.

1. Call Jefferson County Jail at 814-849-1933 and choose Records extension 3 or General Information extension 1.
2. Search Pennsylvania VINE for custody status or register for notifications about release, transfer, escape, or other status changes.
3. Use the Pennsylvania DOC locator only for state-sentenced inmates or parolees.
4. Use UJS Case Search for court dockets, charges, bail, hearings, and sentencing data rather than jail roster data.

That service points users to the DOC locator. It is not a Jefferson County jail roster, and it should not be used to rule out county custody.

Pennsylvania DOC Locator

The Pennsylvania DOC Inmate/Parolee Locator covers state-sentenced inmates and parolees. The research says it updates daily, does not include private information, and cannot find people incarcerated in another state or held only in a county facility. That limit is important for Jefferson County because a person recently arrested, held for a hearing, serving a short county sentence, or awaiting Common Pleas proceedings may not appear in the DOC system.

Use a last name or inmate number for the broadest state search. First name helps with common last names. Additional personal details may appear in state locator records, but the research warns that some self-reported personal information may not be independently verified. Housing location is also not an indication of treatment being received.

Jefferson County VINE Search

Pennsylvania VINE is useful when the goal is custody status and notifications rather than a full jail profile. The research says the Victim Witness page explains PA SAVIN gives free confidential notification about an offender's release, transfer, or escape and covers offenders in county jails, state prisons, and state parole. County-jail notifications include release, escape, and transfer. VINE may be the best public tool when the jail confirms custody but the user also needs future status alerts.

VINE is not a replacement for the Jefferson County Jail Records extension. It is a notification and custody-status tool. Use it with the jail phone channel when the person may be held locally, transferred, released, or moved to state custody.

Inmate Field Inventory

Jefferson County did not publish online county jail roster fields in the research. The public field inventory therefore comes from official DOC and VINE descriptions, plus what the county jail phone records may be able to confirm. Avoid assuming a public booking number, photo, housing unit, bond amount, projected release date, or full charge list will be visible online through the county because the county roster was not located.

Jefferson County Jail Visitation

Jefferson County Jail visits must be scheduled through IC Solutions using a home computer, cell phone, or the computer in the jail vestibule. Visits must be scheduled no sooner than 24 hours before the visit and no later than one week out. Visiting times are 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. The official page does not publish a separate day-by-day table in the research, so the same visiting time window is used for the listed schedule rather than inventing different daily blocks.

IC Solutions is the scheduling provider named by the Jefferson County Jail page. Use the provider for visit scheduling, but direct custody and records questions to the jail phone menu.

Jefferson County Inmate Funds

Money can be placed on an inmate account through a kiosk in the jail front lobby. The kiosk accepts cash and credit cards. Money orders may be mailed to the jail in the inmate's name. The official page says a small charge is assessed with each deposit to cover expenses. Funds are not accepted through the front-desk window, and cash is not accepted through the mail. Telephone-account funds can also be placed through the front-lobby kiosk, by calling 1-866-345-1884, or through Access Corrections.

Access Corrections is the online deposit channel named in the jail research for phone account deposits. For deposit questions, use the jail's published funding rules first, then use the provider for the transaction path that the jail permits.

Property And Medical Rules

Property rules are narrow. On entering the building, an inmate may possess five white T-shirts, five pairs of white socks, and five sets of underwear. Once the inmate has entered, no other personal items may be brought in. Additional personal items are available through the jail commissary system. The research did not find a public commissary menu, tablet pricing, mail scanning rule, dress code, child-visitor rule, holiday schedule, or attorney-visitation schedule in accessible official text.

Jefferson County contracts with a medical provider for inmate medical needs. When someone is incarcerated, the provider contacts outside healthcare providers and pharmacies to document past medical needs. Small co-pays are required for inmate treatment while incarcerated. Medical questions should use the jail Medical Department extension rather than the general record path. The official jail page lists special restrictions as none.

Weekender Fees

Jefferson County publishes a specific rule for weekender fees. If a sentence allows incarceration of less than six days at a time, the court system orders a fee paid by the inmate. Fees are assessed according to weekly income. The inmate must provide copies of the last three paystubs so the jail can calculate the fee. The research did not provide a flat fee amount or schedule, so the correct public statement is that the amount is income-based and calculated by the jail from paystub information.

Inmate Records And Cases

Jail custody and criminal court records answer different questions. The jail can address current custody, Records inquiries, visitation, deposits, property, medical, and weekender rules. UJS Case Search is the channel for court dockets, charges, bail, preliminary hearings, held-for-court status, Common Pleas case movement, pleas, dispositions, sentencing, costs, fines, restitution, and appeals. If a person was recently arrested, the case may first appear through an MDJ docket before moving to the Court of Common Pleas.

PAeDocket, mentioned in the UJS Case Information research, is a court docket app. It is not a sheriff jail-roster app. The official county sheriff and jail pages did not advertise a Jefferson County Sheriff's Office mobile app.
