Jackson Sheriff and Jail
The sheriff's administrative office, detention center, and jail contact are published through different official sources. State which location or record is needed before visiting.

Sheriff-published jail line: (318) 395-6400
Use the jail for a recorded local release or transfer. The home page explains the booking-and-release request and the separate court match. Louisiana DPS&C at (225) 383-4580 handles its automated state locator; (225) 342-0799 is the published automated time-computation line.
Confirm Current Request Details
The sheriff's stored public-records page directs a written mailed request to 150 Old Winnfield Road, but it also carries an earlier sheriff's name and a malformed ZIP line. Use the current 71251 address, identify the addressee as the Public Records Custodian, and call (318) 259-9021 before mailing. This preserves the useful written-request instruction without relying on stale officeholder text.
Court and State Records
Jackson Parish Clerk of Court handles criminal minutes, dispositions, sentences, and the local expungement route. Call before an in-person visit because official hours were not verified in the research.

Choose the Right Office
Different events belong to different agencies:
- A local release date, type, or transfer goes to the sheriff's jail record.
- Probation or parole status uses Louisiana LAVNS and the district office identified by DPS&C.
- A projected state date uses the DPS&C locator and the applicable Records Office or remedy route.
- A federal sentence uses the BOP locator and federal record channels.
- ICE detention uses ODLS and Enforcement and Removal Operations, with a clear question about transfer, release, or removal.
- Juvenile questions belong only to the juvenile court, facility, parent, guardian, attorney, or another authorized party.
