Find Hinds County Joint County and State Work Facility Inmates

Work Facility Overview

Hinds County Sheriff's Office lists the Joint County and State Work Facility as a detention contact with phone 601-857-8058 and fax 601-857-8371. The current sheriff page does not publish a separate street address or capacity for this facility. Research suggests it is associated with the Raymond area and the larger county jail system, but the street address should not be published as a fact without official confirmation from Hinds County staff.

The facility should be described as a work-release or work-center style component, not as a full state prison. Federal court materials refer to a Hinds County Work Center and note that the county transformed the Work Center into a functional jail while Raymond remained a central conditions focus. That description supports a lower-security or work-facility framing, but it does not establish the current housing units, eligibility rules, or population count.

Work Facility Lookup

For a current county detainee assigned to the Hinds County Joint County and State Work Facility, use the Hinds County Inmate Query first. The roster covers current Hinds County inmates and displays current inmate information and photos. The inspected sample did not show a guaranteed facility or housing-location field, so a roster hit should be followed by a phone call when the question is whether the person is at the work facility rather than Raymond or Jackson.

1. Search the Hinds County Inmate Query by last name, comma, first name, or by the first letter of the last name.
2. Open the linked inmate profile and review the arrest date, arresting agency, charges, indictment fields, and warrant fields.
3. Call the work facility at 601-857-8058 to confirm placement, visit status, and any work-facility restrictions.
4. If the person has been sentenced to state custody, search Mississippi Department of Corrections by name or MDOC ID number.
5. If the person was released or transferred, use Hinds County records requests, VINELink, or court contacts instead of assuming the roster is complete.

The county inmate query shown below is the public source for current Hinds County adult custody. The screenshot comes from the official Hinds County roster search form.

For this facility in particular, the online result should be paired with the direct phone line because placement details were not visible in the inspected roster sample.

Work Facility Contact

The verified contact details are the facility phone and fax published in the detention contact table. The exact current street address was not located in the current sheriff source. If a family member, attorney, employer, or records requester needs to send documents, visit, or confirm pickup, the first call should be to the facility number rather than to an assumed Raymond street address.

County and State Custody

The facility name creates a common search problem. A person may still be in county jail-system custody even if the facility name includes "State Work Facility." That means the Hinds roster and sheriff contacts may control current placement. A person sentenced to MDOC custody, however, may leave the county roster and appear in the statewide MDOC locator. If both systems seem plausible, search both and call the work facility to confirm whether Hinds County still has custody.

MDOC's own search page instructs users to enter a name or ID number. It does not replace the county roster for pretrial Hinds County custody. The split matters most after sentencing, when a person can move from a county facility to a state prison outside Hinds County.

Work Facility Visits

No separate official visitation schedule for the Hinds County Joint County and State Work Facility was located. Adult Hinds County detention visitation is vendor-supported through the county's online scheduling history and ConnectNetwork/GTL/ViaPath services, but the work facility may have separate eligibility or movement limits. A work-assignment facility can have different daily timing than a general jail pod, so visitors should not assume Raymond or Jackson schedules apply.

The vendor screenshot below is from the ConnectNetwork Hinds County MS page, which lists adult phone, visitation scheduling, and video visitation for the county detention system.

Because this work facility has less public operating detail than Raymond, direct confirmation is more important before using a vendor account.

Work Facility Mail

The research did not locate mail or commissary rules published only for the work facility. Hinds County adult detention mail rules route mail to a processing address with the inmate name and number, and the sheriff page names NCIC for messages, documents, and photos. Those general rules are the most documented path, but a person assigned to a work facility should be confirmed by phone before mail, commissary, or documents are sent.

Work Facility Records

Records for the Joint County and State Work Facility may sit in more than one system. If the person is in county custody, the Hinds County jail roster and sheriff records unit are the starting points. If the person has a state sentence and has moved into MDOC custody, the MDOC locator and MDOC records channels become more useful. If the question involves formal charges, indictment, or court dates, the jail record must be paired with court records from the proper Hinds County court office.

For non-current records, use the Hinds County public-records request form. Ask for a specific record, such as booking sheet, jail docket entry, release date, transfer record, or work-facility placement record. Include full name, approximate date, and arresting agency if known. The county form says fees may apply for lawful copying or research time and asks requesters to allow seven working days.

Work Facility Context

Federal litigation context is relevant but must be handled carefully. DOJ and court materials discuss Hinds County detention facilities and refer to a Work Center, including language that the county transformed the Work Center into a functional jail. Those materials do not provide a current public visitation calendar, capacity, or population count for this specific facility. They do show that the work facility belongs in the broader Hinds County jail operations story, not outside it.

The most reliable page language is therefore restrained. The facility is a named Hinds County detention contact. Its direct phone and fax are published. Its address, capacity, and current count are research gaps. Its lookup path starts with the county roster and shifts to MDOC when custody has become state custody. That is more useful than treating the work facility like a standard jail with a fully published visitor schedule.
