Where to Ask for Knott County Custody or Records Help

Use the contact that matches the record type. The Knott County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Dale Richardson, handles sheriff-originated law-enforcement matters from 54 W Main Street, Hindman, KY 41822; phone 606-785-5354; hours Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. Current jail custody for Knott County detainees routes to Kentucky River Regional Jail, 200 Justice Drive, Hazard, KY 41701; administration (606) 436-0622; booking (606) 436-1008; inmate information (606) 436-4032. KRRJ open-records requests go to records custodian Adam Dials at perryjailcd@ky.gov or the Hazard jail address; the policy uses a five-business-day response rule and allows fees for copies or other chargeable work. Court case records after filing route to Knott Circuit Court Clerk Lisa Bolen, 53 W Main St, Hindman, KY 41822; phone 606-785-5021. No official Knott County Sheriff mobile app was found in the research, so do not rely on an app-only roster path.

  • For a person believed to be in the regional jail, start with jail inmate records and KRRJ inmate information at (606) 436-4032.
  • For booking photos or photo limits, use jail roster mugshots and remember Kentucky law restricts certain commercial mugshot uses under KRS 61.8746.
  • For charges, case numbers, dockets, or dispositions filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Knott Circuit Court Clerk.
  • For facility address, phone, mail, and records details, use the Kentucky River Regional Jail page.
  • For a sentenced Kentucky prisoner or statewide supervision record, search the Kentucky DOC KOOL locator.
  • For a federal prisoner or immigration detainee, use the federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System instead of county offices.
