Arizona County Jail Inmate Lookup & Roster Search 2026

Independent Henrico custody search guide

Henrico County Jail Inmate Search: Find Jail West or Jail East

The Henrico County Sheriff’s Office operates the official county-jail inmate lookup. Search there first for a person believed to be held in Henrico County Jail West or Henrico County Regional Jail East.

The jail lookup answers a custody question. Use Virginia court records separately for case status and disposition, and use the Virginia Department of Corrections locator when the person has moved into VADOC custody.

Independent guide: JailInmateSearches.org is not the Henrico County Sheriff’s Office, Henrico County Jail, Virginia Judicial System, Virginia Department of Corrections, VINE or another government agency. Custody status, bond, facility assignment, projected release information and jail rules can change. Verify current information through the linked official source before paying, mailing, visiting or travelling. An arrest, booking, charge or jail listing does not establish guilt or conviction.

Fast Answer

Use the Henrico County Sheriff’s official inmate search for current Henrico jail information. The search supports last-name lookup and browsing by the starting letter of the last name. The Sheriff’s Office states that juvenile offenders are not included.

Once you find the correct person, check the listed facility because Henrico operates Jail West in Henrico and Regional Jail East in Barhamsville, New Kent County. For the criminal case itself, use the appropriate Virginia court rather than treating the jail entry as the final court record.

Which Henrico Inmate Source Should You Use?

This helper does not search a jail, court, VADOC or VINE database itself. It points you to the official system that matches the task.

Select a task above

The matching official route will appear here.

  1. Open the Sheriff’s inmate search. Use the Henrico County Sheriff’s official inmate-information page rather than a copied roster or third-party inmate directory.
  2. Search by last name. The current search page supports a last-name search. You can also browse by the first letter of the last name.
  3. Open the matching inmate record carefully. Do not identify someone from a common name alone. Compare the inmate ID, full name, booking date, facility and other displayed details.
  4. Check the facility field. The result can identify Jail West, Jail East or another Henrico booking/housing description. Facility assignment can change.
  5. Use the court separately. The Sheriff warns users not to rely on inmate-search information for legal action and directs case-disposition questions to the charging agency or appropriate court clerk.
  6. Verify again before acting. Call the jail or recheck the official record before travelling, paying, mailing, scheduling visitation or making another time-sensitive decision.

What the Henrico Inmate Record Can Show

Individual Henrico inmate-detail records can display several practical custody fields. Treat each field as current jail information rather than a complete criminal-history or final-court record.

Field What it helps answer Important caution
Inmate ID Helps distinguish one Henrico inmate record from another. Do not confuse it with a Virginia court case number or VADOC number.
Full name Identifies the name attached to the custody record. A common name alone is not enough for identity matching.
Booking date Shows when the listed Henrico booking was entered. It is not a conviction date.
Projected release date May show a projected date when one exists in the system. Do not treat a projected date as a guaranteed release date or time.
Facility Helps determine whether the person is associated with Jail West, Jail East or another local housing/booking designation. Housing can change after the record is viewed.
Next court date / location May provide a convenient court-related reference when populated. Confirm through the Virginia court system before relying on it.
Bond amount May display a bond-related dollar field. A displayed amount alone does not prove the person is immediately releasable.
Charge description May identify charges associated with the custody record. A charge is an allegation, not proof of guilt or final case disposition.

Henrico Jail West and Regional Jail East

Henrico County Sheriff’s Office operates two separate jail facilities. Confirm which one appears in the current inmate record before calling, mailing or travelling.

Henrico

Henrico County Regional Jail West

Jail West is a maximum-security facility that houses both pretrial and post-trial inmates. It is also the headquarters of the Henrico County Sheriff’s Office.

Do not assume “Henrico inmate” means the jail is physically inside Henrico County. Regional Jail East is located in Barhamsville in New Kent County but is operated by the Henrico County Sheriff’s Office.

What to Do if the Henrico Inmate Search Shows No Result

Name

Use Fewer Search Terms

Recheck spelling and search the last name again. Common formatting, suffix or name differences can prevent an immediate match.

Timing

Recent Booking

A newly arrested person may still be moving through identification, booking, medical screening or other intake steps before the public record is easy to locate.

Transfer

Check VADOC

If the person has been transferred into Virginia Department of Corrections custody, use the VADOC Inmate & Supervisee Locator.

Other system

Check Federal / ICE if Relevant

A federal or immigration matter may require BOP, ICE or another responsible agency rather than the Henrico county-jail search.

No search result does not prove release. The person may be in intake, transferred, held under another system, listed under a different name variation or no longer in Henrico County Sheriff’s custody.

Henrico Court Records: Check the Case Separately

The inmate record and the court record serve different purposes. The jail lookup is useful for current custody and housing. Virginia court systems should be used for the criminal case, hearing information and disposition.

14th Judicial District

Henrico General District Court

The General District Court handles misdemeanors, traffic matters and preliminary hearings in felony cases.

4309 East Parham Road Henrico, VA 23273-0775 Criminal / Traffic: 804-501-4723 Clerk’s office: Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.

Open Virginia Court Case Information ↗

Virginia court-search limitation: court access differs by court type. Virginia’s court system explains that General District information is available online and that Circuit Court online availability can vary by locality. Juvenile and Domestic Relations case information is subject to additional confidentiality restrictions.

Bond, Bail and the Henrico Magistrate

A bond field in the inmate search is not enough by itself to determine whether a person can be released. Another case, warrant, detainer, court condition or processing requirement can affect release.

24/7

Henrico Magistrate’s Office

Virginia magistrates conduct bail hearings after arrests to determine the conditions under which an arrested person may be released before trial.

Before payment

Verify the Entire Release Situation

  • Confirm the correct person.
  • Confirm every active case.
  • Check the latest bond order.
  • Ask about warrants or detainers.
  • Confirm where and how payment is accepted.
  • Ask whether additional processing is required.
Warrant-payment scam warning: Henrico Police states that police officers and sheriff’s deputies will not call demanding payment to resolve an arrest warrant. Court fines and costs are handled through the courts, and the Magistrate’s Office determines bond information.

Pretrial Services After Release

If a person is released on bond and specifically ordered to report to Henrico Community Corrections Pretrial Services, Henrico’s current intake instructions require reporting that day before 4:00 p.m. If release occurs after that time, the person must report the next business day during intake hours.

Pretrial Services: 804-501-5245, Human Services Building, 8600 Dixon Powers Drive, Henrico, VA 23228. Follow the person’s actual court order; not every release includes the same supervision requirement.

Henrico Jail Video Visitation

Virtual visitation is available for both Jail West and Jail East. Henrico currently uses the GettingOut / ViaPath visitation system.

  1. Create and verify the visitor account. GettingOut requires account setup and verification of the visitor’s email address and phone number.
  2. Use the supported mobile visitation app. Henrico’s current instructions refer visitors to the GettingOut/GoVisits mobile process for video visits.
  3. Use Visit Now when available. Henrico explains that Visit Now can allow an inmate-initiated visit without advance scheduling when the feature is available.
  4. Follow facility rules. Scheduled visits remain subject to jail rules, housing moves and restrictions. Late arrival can result in cancellation of a reservation.
Video visitation technical support: 866-516-0115.

Money Released From an Inmate Account

An inmate who wants funds released from a personal account must submit Henrico’s “Authorization to Release Money/Property” request. The Sheriff currently requires that request at least five working days before the desired pickup.

Money-release checks are issued Monday-Friday, except holidays, from 8:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m., and the payee must present picture identification.

Deposit scam check: verify the inmate’s current facility and open payment providers from Henrico County’s own page. Do not send gift cards, cryptocurrency or money through a payment link supplied only by an unknown caller, text message or social-media account.

Henrico Inmate Phone and Tablet Services

The Sheriff’s Office currently contracts inmate telephone services through ViaPath. Inmates can make collect calls, although not every telephone carrier accepts them.

Telephone

Advance Pay

ViaPath’s Advance Pay option allows family or friends to establish a prepaid account for receiving inmate calls.

Calling Cards and Tablets

Henrico says inmates can purchase prepaid calling cards through their canteen account and can transfer eligible personal funds into ViaPath for phone, tablet and video time.

Care Packages and Hot Meals

Henrico currently provides two separate official purchase routes for approved inmate items.

Securepak

Food, Hygiene and Clothing

Family and friends can order approved snack/food, hygiene and clothing items through Access Securepak by Keefe Group.

iCare

Hot Meals

Henrico also links an iCaregifts service for approved hot-meal purchases.

Personal Property and Clothing Exchange

When someone is committed to the Henrico jails, deputies inventory personal clothing, jewelry and items from pockets or bags. Approved stored property can later be mailed or released to an authorized family member or friend after the required authorization process.

Henrico generally does not accept personal property from outside sources unless specifically approved. For a clothing exchange needed for court or release, the inmate must submit an inmate request to the facility quartermaster at least five working days before the requested exchange.

Henrico states that clothing will not be accepted on the day of release or on the court date. Plan ahead when an approved clothing exchange is necessary.

How to Send an Emergency Message to an Inmate

Henrico jail staff route qualifying emergency messages to the shift supervisor, who verifies the information before delivering it to the inmate. Routine messages are not guaranteed to be delivered.

Examples Henrico Treats as Emergency Messages

  • Death of a relative or close friend
  • Birth where the inmate is the father
  • Serious injury or hospitalization of a relative
  • Another situation the supervising officer determines qualifies as an emergency

Virginia Jail VINE Notifications

Virginia distinguishes local-jail VINE from Virginia Department of Corrections VINE. For people housed in local and regional jails, Virginia Jail VINE provides custody-status search and notification functions.

Henrico Victim/Witness Notifications

Henrico Victim/Witness staff can also provide case-status information, court-date notice, prisoner-release information and bond-status information for eligible victims and witnesses.

Henrico Victim/Witness notifications ↗

VINE is a notification service, not an emergency-protection system. For immediate danger, use the appropriate emergency or law-enforcement channel.

When to Check the Virginia DOC Locator

Use the Virginia Department of Corrections Inmate & Supervisee Locator when the person is under VADOC custody or supervision rather than ordinary Henrico county-jail custody.

VADOC says its locator is updated daily and includes people in state correctional institutions, probationers and parolees, institutional-hospital assignments, and some individuals housed in local or regional jails under VADOC authority.

Custody overlap can happen. Someone can physically be housed in a local or regional jail while appearing in the VADOC system because they are under VADOC authority. Use the facility and supervising authority shown by the official records rather than assuming one database automatically replaces the other.

  • Verify the Virginia court case separately when charges or disposition matter.
  • Confirm the latest bond situation and all active holds before paying.
  • Use Henrico’s current page for money, phone, mail and visitation vendors.
  • Do not assume a projected release date is guaranteed.
  • Do not treat an arrest or charge as proof of guilt.
