Use the route that matches the question:

  • For one released person or a release record, the home page explains the receiving-jail and records-request path.
  • For state supervision, use District 20 at 125 Union Street, Somerset, KY 42501, 606-677-4024, or its Williamsburg satellite at 965 South Highway 25 W, Units 6A and 6B, Williamsburg, KY 40769, 606-549-0940.
  • For a recent event, use the 24-hour release fallback and ask the receiving jail for its log.
  • For a projected state date or custody alert, use KOOL or Kentucky VINELink.
  • For former KDOC information, write Offender Information Services, P.O. Box 2400, Frankfort, KY 40602-2400.
  • For USP McCreary, contact BOP at 330 Federal Way, Pine Knot, KY 42635, 606-354-7000.
  • For a federal or immigration detainee, use the official BOP or ICE locator rather than a county office.
