This is a private reference, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible public office directly for those actions.
Jail and Sheriff Records
The sheriff is the official starting point for an Amite County Jail custody question, a jail-docket request, or a request for a booking photograph if it is maintained and releasable. The county has not published a separate records-unit extension, public counter hours, booking-photo fee, or turnaround promise. Call first and ask for the current custodian and written procedure.
Amite County Sheriff's Office
P.O. Box 208
Liberty, MS 39645-0208
Phone: 601-657-8057
Email: amiteso@yahoo.com
Jail physical address: 243 South Broad Street, Liberty, MS 39645
Jailers and dispatchers are reported to be on duty around the clock, but that is not a published records-office schedule. Ask whether the matter requires a written request and what delivery method the office currently accepts.
Match the Office to the Record
Different records sit with different custodians. Starting with the correct office prevents a county-jail request from being mistaken for a city incident report or a court disposition request.
- For a county booking, custody question, jail docket, or releasable photo, begin with the Amite County Sheriff's Office.
- For an initial appearance, affidavit trail, or Justice Court matter, contact the Justice Court Clerk at P.O. Box 362, Liberty, MS 39645, 601-657-4527.
- For a Circuit Court case, docket, or certified court copy, contact the Circuit Clerk at 243 West Main Street, Liberty, MS 39645, 601-657-8932.
- For a person in state custody, use the MDOC inmate locator or contact the MDOC Records Department at 601-933-2889. MDOC requests must be in writing.
- For a federal or immigration custody question, use the separate BOP locator or ICE detainee locator; neither is a county booking database.
City Arrest Reports
A city police department may hold the incident or arrest report even when the person was booked into the county jail. Gloster Police can be reached through the municipal contact at 601-225-4771. The available Liberty Police directory listing gives 136 Clinic Street, Liberty, MS 39645 and 601-657-8021, but callers should confirm that contact and the records custodian before mailing a request.
For the county-wide explanation of custody, request, and court routes, use the Amite booking records page. The sheriff's wanted and warrant information is addressed separately on the Sheriff's Most Wanted page.
