This is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot verify custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve a government booking record. Contact the record-holding office directly for those services.
Official Yalobusha Contacts
Start with the jail for a current-custody question and the sheriff for a specific booking or jail-docket request. The sheriff page was unreliable during research, so confirm current office procedures by phone before visiting or mailing a request.
Yalobusha County Sheriff's Department
11803 Hwy 32
Water Valley, MS 38965
Office: (662) 473-3602
Jail and non-emergency: (662) 473-2722

Choose the Record Holder
Different questions lead to different offices. Ask for a precise record and a date range rather than a broad request for photographs.
- For a current booking, jail status, or county jail-docket record, use the sheriff and jail contacts above or the county records path.
- For an arrest report made by Water Valley Police, call (662) 473-2933, then separately use the county channel for the booking record.
- For a case after booking, contact the appropriate Circuit Clerk or use the 17th Circuit MEC route.
- For an MDOC state-custody record, use the MDOC written-request process; MDOC does not accept public-record requests by phone.
- For a federal or immigration detention question, use the responsible BOP, USMS, ICE, or federal-court locator rather than the county jail.
- For a wanted-person tip, use Yalobusha Crime Stoppers at 1-866-933-TIPS (8477), and do not approach the person.
