Garrard County Has No Jail
The controlling local fact is direct: the official Garrard County elected-officials page says Garrard County does not operate a jail. The county still has a constitutional Jailer. The local page lists Kevin Middleton as Jailer, gives the Jailer phone as 859-792-2591, and says the Jailer is primarily responsible for transporting inmates for court appearances. Questions about individual inmates should go to the facility where the person is housed.
That means a "Garrard County jail roster" is not the right expectation. A Garrard arrest may lead to booking at another county detention center or a contract facility, and each facility controls its own visitation, mail, phone, commissary, and release rules. The Sheriff's Office, the Jailer, the arresting agency, and the Circuit Court Clerk can help identify court status, but custody records belong to the housing facility.
The manifest source for the main housing-facility channel is the Boyle County Detention Center homepage, one official/agency detention source located during research.
Use Boyle County sources only when a Garrard County inmate is actually housed there, because Garrard County does not publish its own jail rules.
Start With the Housing Facility
The county's own instruction points users to the facility where the inmate is housed. If the facility is not known, begin with local official contacts. The Garrard County Jailer can help with transport and court-appearance context. The Garrard County Sheriff can answer arrest or warrant questions. The Circuit Court Clerk can confirm court dates, bond orders, and case activity once charges are filed.
- Call the Garrard County Jailer at 859-792-2591 to ask which facility has custody or transport information.
- Call the Garrard County Sheriff at 859-792-3591 for arrest or warrant-related questions.
- Search the identified housing facility roster, such as Boyle County JailTracker if the person is housed in Boyle County.
- Use Kentucky docket search for court dates after charges are filed.
- Use Kentucky Online Offender Lookup for sentenced state offenders, not pretrial jail custody.
No official Garrard sheriff or police mobile app was located in official sources during research. Do not rely on an app-only inmate lookup unless a current official listing is later verified by publisher and feature.
Boyle County Roster For Garrard Inmates
Boyle County Detention Center is a nearby official detention source located in the research. The facility address is 1860 South Danville Bypass, Danville, Kentucky 40422, and the phone is 859-238-1100 x1011. The Boyle site links a current inmate list through JailTracker. Static inspection showed a public Blazor roster app shell, but it did not expose all search fields or sample inmate profiles in the source.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roster app shell | Dynamic app | Unspecified | The public JailTracker roster loads through a browser app. |
| Search or name fields | Dynamic | Unspecified | Field labels were not visible in static source. |
| Result or profile fields | Dynamic | Unspecified | No inmate-specific rows were captured during static inspection. |
A JailTracker result should be treated as a facility custody record, not as the full Garrard County criminal case file. The roster capture did not produce a successful assigned image in the manifest.
Garrard County Inmate Profile Fields
No sample Boyle JailTracker inmate profile was captured in the static source. The research therefore does not verify a local result screen with booking number, photo, charges, bond, housing unit, or release date. Those may appear in many jail roster systems, but they should not be promised as verified Boyle fields unless a current profile is viewed in the live app.
| Possible Field | How to Treat It |
|---|---|
| Name | Use it to distinguish the person, but confirm identity with date of birth or booking details when available. |
| Booking date | May show facility intake date, not the exact arrest time or court filing date. |
| Charges | May list booking charges; formal court charges can change after prosecutor review. |
| Bond | May reflect bond set by court or facility records; Garrard court payment rules say bond requires cash. |
| Housing location | Shows facility custody if displayed; it can change after transport or transfer. |
| Release date | May be estimated, blank, or unavailable for pretrial cases. |
For the court side of a booking, use KYeCourts or the Circuit Court Clerk. Arrest and custody records do not prove a conviction. The full case result belongs in the court file after plea, dismissal, verdict, sentence, or other disposition.
Garrard County Inmate Facilities
The only detailed official/agency detention facility source captured for operational rules was Boyle County Detention Center. The research did not locate an official Garrard page naming every contract housing facility. Do not assume every Garrard County inmate is in Boyle County. Confirm the housing site first, then follow that facility's current rules.

Visitation Depends On Facility
Visitation is controlled by the housing facility. For Boyle County Detention Center, the published visitation page lists daily hours and two free 15-minute visits per seven days for each resident. The same page links instructions for buying phone time and scheduling video visits from home or outside the jail. Those rules should be used only for inmates housed at Boyle.
| Topic | Rule Located | Applies When |
|---|---|---|
| Schedule | Daily, 0700 AM-11:30 PM | Boyle County Detention Center housing. |
| Free visits | Two free 15-minute visits per seven days | Boyle resident account rules. |
| Video visits | Boyle page links scheduling instructions | Boyle video visit system. |
| Facility contact | 859-238-1100 x1011 | Boyle County Detention Center. |
The manifest source for the Boyle visit rules is the Boyle County Detention Center visitation page.
Confirm the housing facility before scheduling a visit because another facility may use different time blocks, vendors, and approval rules.
Mail And Money Rules
Mail, commissary, and money rules are also facility-specific. Boyle County Detention Center says that, as of July 17, 2023, mail must be sent to listed addresses and mail received elsewhere will be rejected. Standard non-legal friends and family mail uses TextBehind with the inmate name and inmate ID, Boyle County Detention Center, PO Box 76550, Highland Heights, KY 41076. Legal mail, legal representation mail, and money orders go to 1860 South Danville Bypass, Danville, KY 40422.
- Incoming mail must include the inmate name, inmate ID, and a return address.
- Mail can be opened, inspected, or read for contraband and rule violations.
- Pictures are the only permitted enclosures, with up to 10 photographs per package if printed on photo paper.
- Money orders may be placed in the lobby money-order box or mailed to the detention center attention Inmate Accounts.
- Online deposits use CorrectPay, and care packages use Kentucky Wholesale Corrections.
The manifest source for the mail policy is the Boyle County Detention Center mail policy.
The manifest source for money deposits is the Boyle County commissary deposit page.
These Boyle County rules are useful only after confirming that the Garrard County inmate is housed there.
Court Dates After Booking
Booking and court records split quickly. Custody records stay with the housing facility. Court records begin when a citation, complaint, indictment, warrant, or other charging document enters the District or Circuit Court file. District Court usually handles misdemeanors, traffic, initial felony steps, bond hearings, and many first appearances. Felony cases can move to Circuit Court after indictment or waiver.
The Garrard County Justice Center page lists District Court sessions Monday at 9 a.m. and Thursday at 1 p.m.; Circuit Criminal is listed for the third Friday at 9 a.m. Court dates can change, so use the docket portal and Circuit Court Clerk for confirmation. Bond must be handled through court or facility instructions. The Garrard court page states that cash is required for bond.
Important: Facility custody status, court charge status, and bond status can update at different times and should be verified separately.
Booking Records Requests
Public custody information may be limited online. For booking records not published by the housing facility, request records from the responsible agency, subject to Kentucky public-record exemptions. For court case records, use KYeCourts public access, the docket portal, or the Circuit Court Clerk. For county government records outside court files, use the Garrard County open-records request process.
State custody is separate. Kentucky Online Offender Lookup is for state offenders and supervision records, usually after sentence or transfer to Kentucky Department of Corrections custody. A person can be absent from KOOL and still be in pretrial local custody, or absent from a county roster after transfer to a state facility.
Note: Juvenile records, sealed cases, expunged matters, and some medical or safety-sensitive custody facts are not ordinary public inmate records.
