Fayette County Jail Roster

Reading a Fayette County Booking Record

The jail serves as Fayette County's pretrial detention center and also houses people serving sentences of up to 12 months or awaiting transfer to a state facility.

Enter a full or partial name, a booking number or a word from a listed charge in the search box above. Select View Details to see the charges attached to a booking.

Bond amounts belong to individual charge entries. Repeated figures are not added together here, and an unavailable amount does not establish that someone is being held without bond. Call 770-716-4720 to confirm custody and the amount required for release.

The Sheriff's current inmate lookup provides access to the county's own roster. An arrest or charge does not establish guilt.

Fayette County Jail Visitation

The Sheriff's posted visiting schedule offers regular visits on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. There are no scheduled visits on Monday or Friday.

The regular appointment windows are 9–9:45 a.m., 10–10:45 a.m., 1–1:45 p.m. and 2–2:45 p.m. The published rule requires the person in custody to arrange a 45-minute slot one day ahead and limits regular visits to two per week. Do not arrive without a scheduled visit.

Bring a valid state-issued ID or driver's license. Before arranging a visit with children, call 770-716-4720 to confirm age, guardian and group-size requirements. Check the available appointment before making the trip; the jail says visiting days and times may change.

Visits for Inmate Workers

The jail lists separate inmate-worker windows of 7–8 p.m. and 8–9 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Ask the jail which schedule applies to the person you plan to visit.

What to Wear and What to Leave Behind

Wear clothing that is not revealing or provocative. For onsite visits, the jail prohibits purses, packages, cell phones and other electronic devices inside the facility. Paid lockers are available in the lobby. Food and drinks are prohibited.

Visitors are subject to search. Refusing a search can result in denied entry.

Phone Calls and Video Visits

The jail FAQ says people in custody may make collect calls daily, with the recipient responsible for the cost. Ask the jail for the current calling service and account instructions before adding money.

Family video visits are monitored by a third-party provider, which can warn visitors or end a session. Do not conduct a remote visit while driving.

Ask the jail which service handles remote-video registration and check the available appointments and prices. Review the service's payment and cancellation terms before booking.

Adding Money and Buying Commissary

Posting Bond at Fayette County Jail

The Sheriff's bonding information says bond may be posted 24 hours a day. Call 770-716-4720 about the person's bond conditions and the documents or payment needed before going to the jail.

For a cash bond, the jail requires the full bond amount in exact cash or a bank-issued certified check. A supervisor must verify the certified check before approving the bond. The person posting bond must be 18 or older and have a state-issued ID or driver's license.

For a property bond involving real estate outside Fayette County, begin with the Sheriff's Office in the county where the property is located. Its paperwork must reach Fayette in a sealed, untampered envelope.

Ask the bonding officer for the full amount due, accepted payment method and any property requirements. Confirm the jail's current list of authorized professional bonding companies before hiring one.

Medications, Glasses and Personal Property

The jail's item-delivery FAQ allows eyeglasses and reading glasses. Current medications require clearance from medical staff. Call 770-716-4720 before bringing medicine to ask about approval, packaging and delivery arrangements.

The property policy allows white undergarments at admission and says colored undergarments are seized. Clothing can be purchased through commissary. Call before bringing clothing; the admission rule does not establish a general family drop-off service.

Collecting Stored Property

The published policy requires a person in custody to complete a property-release form and arrange release to a designated recipient within 30 days of admission. For someone transferred or released, it gives 10 days to arrange property release. The jail warns that property is disposed of after those periods.

Ask the jail what identification, authorization and pickup arrangements the recipient needs before traveling.
