Person County Jail Roster Status
No official Person County jail roster or live inmate-search page was located on the county or sheriff website. That is the first fact to use when checking Person County inmate records. The Person County Detention Center page gives support rules for bond, mail, commissary, phone service, and video visits, but it does not publish a searchable custody list. The facility is operated by the Person County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Jason "Skeet" Wilborn, and it is the local jail for people held after arrests by the Sheriff's Office, Roxboro Police Department, and other agencies in Person County.
Because the county does not publish a jail roster, Person County inmate records have to be checked by purpose. Current custody and bond questions go to the jail phone channel. Arrest information from Roxboro Police may appear on the city P2C feed, but that feed is not jail custody status. Filed charges and hearings belong in NC eCourts. Sentenced North Carolina prison records belong to NCDAC. Federal and immigration custody use separate locators. A person can pass from one system to another, so a failed search in one place does not mean there is no record.
Roster gap: Person County did not publish an official county inmate roster during the research pass. Treat any current custody question as a jail phone or VINE confirmation task.
Search Person County Inmates
The best Person County inmate lookup method is a fallback chain rather than one form. Start local, then move outward. If the person was just arrested, the Person County Detention Center is the strongest channel for current custody. If the arrest was handled by Roxboro Police, the Roxboro P2C Recent Arrests page can show a recent arrest entry with a photo and charge text, but it does not confirm the person is still in jail. For formal court case data, use the NC eCourts Portal and filter to Person County when possible.
- Call the Person County Detention Center at 336-597-0525 for current custody or bond stipulations. Use the person's full name, date of birth if known, and arrest date.
- Check Roxboro P2C only if Roxboro Police may have made the arrest. Read it as a recent arrest feed, not as the Person County jail roster.
- Search NC eCourts for charges, case number, hearing dates, and case status after the arrest is filed in court.
- Use Person County NextRequest for non-urgent public-records requests, such as a booking sheet or releasable jail record.
- Search the NCDAC Offender Public Information locator only after a state prison, probation, parole, or post-release status is possible.
- Register through North Carolina VINE / NC SAVAN when notification is the goal rather than a one-time lookup.
- Use the BOP Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator only for federal prison or immigration custody.
Person County Roster Search Fields
The county jail roster field inventory is short because no official Person County inmate roster form was found. That absence matters. A site that asks for last name, booking number, housing unit, or bond field as if those are official Person County roster filters is not matching the county's published system. The available official search fields come from adjacent systems: Roxboro P2C for recent city arrests, NCDAC for state correction status, eCourts for case data, BOP for federal custody, and ICE for immigration detention.
| Channel | Field Type | Required | Person County Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Official Person County jail roster | n/a | n/a | No official public roster form located. Call the jail, use NextRequest, or use VINE as applicable. |
| Roxboro P2C Recent Arrests | Page/feed | n/a | Shows recent city police arrest entries, photos, demographics, charge text, and disclaimer. Not custody status. |
| NC eCourts Smart Search | Name, case number, advanced filters | Basic search needs a name or record number | Use for filed charges, hearings, and case status in Person County court records. |
| NCDAC Offender Public Information | Name, offender number, status, race, sex, age, birth date | At least one valid criterion | Use for state prison, probation, parole, post-release, and historical state records, not county jail detainees. |
| BOP Inmate Locator | Federal number or name fields | Search criterion required | Use for federal inmates from 1982 to present. It is not a Person County jail tool. |
| ICE Online Detainee Locator | A-number or biographical fields | Required by search path | Use for current ICE detention. The public interface requires JavaScript. |
Person County Inmate Record Fields
Person County does not publish a county jail profile format, so field comparisons should be read as an inventory of official alternatives. The county jail can confirm custody and bond by phone, but the public web does not expose a booking number, housing unit, bond amount, or release date table. Roxboro P2C may show a police arrest photo and charge. NCDAC may show a state offender photo, offender number, state custody location, conviction history, sentence dates, and projected release details for sentenced state cases.
| Field | Person County Jail | Roxboro P2C | NCDAC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Confirm by phone or records request | Full name on arrest entry | Committed name plus aliases |
| Photo | No county roster photo page found | Booking-style image appears in sample entry | State offender photo may appear |
| Booking number | Not published online | Not shown in sample | Not applicable |
| Charges | Call jail, request records, or search court | Arrest charge shown | Conviction and offense history |
| Bond | Call 336-597-0525 for stipulations | Not shown in sample | Not a bond system |
| Housing | Not published online | Not shown | Current or prior state correction location |
| Status | Call jail or use VINE | Arrest entry only, not in-custody status | Inmate, probation, parole, or inactive status |
Request Person County Jail Records
Person County's public-records page directs requesters to submit requests online, and the official portal is NextRequest. Use it for non-urgent records, not for release, bond, or same-day custody confirmation. A clear request should identify the person, the approximate arrest or booking date, the arresting agency, and the record sought. Ask for a booking record, booking sheet, arrest report, jail record, or booking photograph only if that is the record actually needed. North Carolina law allows exceptions and redactions, especially for criminal investigation records, so a request may not return every field.
The Person County NextRequest portal has Search and Make Request options for public-record routing.
NextRequest is useful when Person County inmate records are not available through a live roster, but it should not be used as a substitute for the jail phone line when custody timing matters.
Person County Jail Contact
The primary local facility is the Person County Detention Center. It is on the second floor of the Sheriff's Office building, reached by the elevator or stairs from the main entrance. The county page publishes the jail phone number for bond questions, and the same channel is the practical first stop when a person may be in current custody. Do not treat the courthouse, state prison locator, or police P2C feed as a substitute for current jail confirmation.
Person County Detention Center
Operated by Person County Sheriff's Office
120 Court Street
Roxboro, NC 27573
336-597-0525
Current custody, bond stipulations, and jail-support questions.
Person County Booking Records
A Person County booking record begins after arrest and intake at the detention center. Local detention officer materials describe inmate intake and release, supervision, safety checks, escorts, transports to court or medical appointments, and required documentation. The public cannot watch this process through an online county roster, so the record trail may be split between the jail, the arresting agency, the court, and later state or federal systems.
In practical terms, arrest and transport are followed by identity checks, property inventory, booking record creation, photo or fingerprint steps, screening, bond or release review, housing classification, and later court transport, transfer, or release. Money in an inmate's possession during processing is automatically applied to the commissary account according to the county detention page. Formal court charges may differ from the arrest charge after prosecutor review, so check NC eCourts before treating an arrest charge as the final case charge.
- Booking
- Jail intake after arrest, including identity, property, charge, and custody processing.
- Detainer
- A hold from another agency or jurisdiction that may delay release.
- PR bond
- A promise-based release condition with no cash paid up front when ordered by the court.
- Classification
- Jail or prison review used to assign custody level and housing.
Person County Visitation Records
Person County uses video visitation only. Friends and family must register and schedule visits through InmateSales.com. The county page says one free online visit is allowed per inmate and that additional remote visits may be purchased and scheduled online. A day-by-day public visitation schedule was not published in the research, so visitors should confirm restrictions before relying on a vendor screen or old information. If the person has just been booked, call the jail before scheduling.
| Topic | Person County Rule | Source or Gap |
|---|---|---|
| Visit type | Video visitation only | Official detention page |
| Scheduling | Register and schedule through InmateSales.com | Official detention page |
| Free visit | One free online visit per inmate | Official detention page |
| Additional visits | Remote visits may be purchased and scheduled online | Official detention page |
| On-site schedule | Not published | Confirm with jail or vendor |
| Visitor ID and dress code | Not published in detail | Confirm before scheduling |
Person County Inmate Support
Mail, commissary, phone time, and video visits are separate from the Person County inmate records lookup. Mail should be addressed to Person County Detention Center, Inmate Name, P.O. Box 1156, Roxboro, NC 27573. Books, magazines, and newspapers must come directly from the publisher or an online store, and mail will be searched. Commissary money may be added at the detention lobby kiosk or online through Team3 / Inmate Canteen. Phone service is through Combined Public Communications, with phone time available through InmateSales.com or 877-998-5678.
Note: Confirm custody with the jail before sending funds, mailing items, or scheduling a video visit for a newly booked person.
Person County Custody Comparison
Person County inmate records often get confused with state and federal records because the same person may move through more than one system. The county jail handles local pretrial custody, short local sentences, court holds, and custody pending transfer. NCDAC handles state prison, probation, parole, and post-release supervision. BOP handles federal sentenced inmates. ICE handles immigration detention. VINE can notify across county jail and state correction statuses, but it is a notification channel rather than a full public profile system.
The NCDAC Offender Public Information search accepts name, offender number, status, race, sex, age, and birth-date criteria for state records.
NCDAC is the right official path after a Person County case results in state custody, but it does not list current local jail detainees who have not entered the state correction system.
| Custody Type | Best Search Channel | What It Does Not Do |
|---|---|---|
| County jail pretrial or short sentence | Person County Detention Center phone, VINE, NextRequest for non-urgent records | No public county roster was found |
| City police recent arrest | Roxboro P2C Recent Arrests | Does not prove current jail custody |
| Court charges and hearings | NC eCourts and Person County Courthouse | Not a jail roster or release line |
| State prison, probation, parole | NCDAC Offender Public Information | Does not include local county jail records |
| Federal prison | BOP Inmate Locator | Not for county jail or public mugshots |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator | Not a booking-photo gallery |
Person County Sheriff App
The Person County Sheriff, NC mobile app is published by OCV, LLC and was listed with public-safety news, tips, reporting, and interactive features. The listing warns that it is not for emergency reporting. It did not confirm an inmate roster, active warrant search, or mugshot gallery. Use the app as a communication channel, not as the official Person County inmate records lookup. For emergency help, call 911. For custody, call the jail. For public records, use NextRequest.
