This is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office responsible for the record.
Letcher Release Record Contacts
For a county booking, release entry, property question, or jail record, start with the elected jailer’s office. The jail is at 156 Main Street, Whitesburg, KY 41858, and its public number is 606-633-5163. The official site says the public jail entrance is at the rear southeast corner of the courthouse complex. It does not publish records-unit hours, a request email, or standard costs, so confirm those details by phone before visiting.
- Use the home page for the full named-person and release-record path.
- Use Probation & Parole after KOOL shows active state supervision.
- For a recent release, use the jail, court, and VINE fallback described on Jail Releases: 24 Hours.
- Check Projected Release for a scheduled date or VINELink Inmate Search for an alert.
- For a state discharge record, use the KDOC Open Records channel.
- For a court outcome, use the Letcher court and circuit clerk page.
- For a federal or immigration case, use the BOP locator or ICE locator, not the county jail roster.
Kentucky VINE also accepts custody and release-alert inquiries at 1-800-511-1670. A locator result is not a substitute for an issuing office’s certified record.
