Walthall County Jail Overview

The official Walthall County Sheriff's Office jail page identifies Walthall County Jail, also called the Walthall County Detention Center in roster context, as the local facility responsible for the care, custody, and control of inmates. It is operated by the Walthall County Sheriff's Office in Tylertown. Sheriff Kyle Breland is listed on the Sheriff's administrative page, and Warden Cherie Bailey is named for jail and corrections questions. The jail page describes a local custody mission rather than a state prison mission. It also says the jail recognizes statutory, judicial, and constitutional rights while enforcing facility rules and law in a fair and impartial way.

The Walthall County Jail page is the right facility page for people booked after local arrests, warrant pickups, or short-term holds in Walthall County, Mississippi. The Sheriff's Office publishes the jail roster and released roster from the same county site, so local custody can be checked without using a state prison database first. Municipal arrests can still appear in the county jail system after booking. The inspected sample roster profile showed Tylertown Police Department as an arresting agency abbreviation, which is a useful reminder that the public jail record may include arrests made by city police as well as the sheriff's office.

Walthall County Jail Contact

Questions that depend on current custody status should go to the jail, not to a court database or a statewide prison search. The Sheriff's contact page lists the main office phone as a 24-hour line and states that administrative office hours are Monday through Friday. It also warns that email is not monitored at all times and should not be used for urgent or sensitive personal information. That matters for jail users because bond, charges, and case numbers can change after court events.

Walthall County Jail Population

Public population figures for Walthall County Jail are narrow. The official county jail page and roster did not publish a rated bed capacity, housing-unit count, annual booking count, or demographic dashboard during the research run. The live roster count can move throughout the day. Research captured 24 current roster entries on June 19, 2026, but the same research also noted that browser examples showed different counts at different times. That figure should be read as an access-date snapshot, not as a fixed jail capacity or daily average.

The strongest outside figure in the research is the Prison Policy Initiative phone-rate appendix, which listed Walthall County Sheriff Jail with an average daily population of 27 in 2022. That is not an official county rated capacity. It is a sourced population measure from a phone-rate appendix, useful for scale but not enough to say whether the jail is full, crowded, or below capacity. No current official overcrowding order, recent jail litigation item, or capacity report was located in the reviewed official sources.

Walthall County Jail Roster Lookup

The official Walthall County current inmate roster is the first public lookup channel for people in local jail custody. The roster has current and released views, a name search box, date and name sorting, result cards, and profile links. The released roster is reached through the Sheriff's released-inmate roster URL and the roster landing page uses 48-hour release wording, although the exact retention rule is not stated. If a person left jail very recently, the released view should be checked before assuming no public jail entry exists.

Use the county roster for Walthall County Jail detainees. Do not use it as the main search for people already sentenced to Mississippi Department of Corrections custody or housed at a regional MDOC facility. Those records move through MDOC channels. A person can pass through the Walthall County Jail after arrest, appear on the county roster, and later become searchable through the state locator after sentencing or transfer. For a broader roster walkthrough, the Walthall County inmate records page explains how booking fields and release entries fit together.

1. Open the Sheriff's current roster, then decide whether to search the current list or the released roster.
2. Use the search box labeled for first or last name. If spelling is uncertain, clear the search with Show All.
3. Sort by name or date when a booking date or last name range is known.
4. Open the profile link to review the booking number, booking date, charges, bond, demographics, mugshot, and arresting agency.
5. Call detention staff at 601-876-3481 before relying on web bond, charges, or case-number details.

Walthall County Jail Record Fields

An inspected Walthall County roster profile shows more than a simple name list. A result card can show a mugshot, booking number, booking date, charge text, and bond information. The profile can add age, gender, race, and arresting agency. Some common fields that people expect from a court or prison file are not visible in the public county profile, including date of birth, Social Security number, home address, housing unit, case number, warrant number, projected release date, and medical data.

Walthall County Jail Visits

The official Walthall County Sheriff's pages reviewed did not publish a dedicated jail visitation schedule, visitor approval process, dress code, child-visitor rule, attorney visit rule, or video visitation vendor. That absence should not be filled with generic jail rules from another county. The practical rule is simple: call the jail before travel and ask staff for the current visiting day, sign-in process, photo ID rule, dress code, and whether the inmate must add visitors to an approved list.

Walthall County Jail Mail

Mail, phone, and money rules are another research gap for the local jail. The Sheriff's site did not publish a mail-address format, commissary vendor, deposit fee table, approved money method, phone vendor, or current video-call rule. The Prison Policy Initiative appendices listed City Tele Coin for the Walthall County Sheriff Jail in the 2022 phone-rate material, but that does not prove the current provider or the current price. Treat it as historical rate context and ask the jail for current instructions.

Walthall County Jail Booking

Booking is the intake process after arrest. In Walthall County, the public result is the Sheriff's roster entry. The research supports a basic flow: arrest or warrant service by the sheriff, Tylertown police, or another lawful agency; transport to Walthall County Jail; intake identification; booking number creation; booking photo creation; entry of arresting agency and charge text; and bond information when available. The exact roster refresh interval is not posted, so a new arrest may not appear right away.

The jail roster is not the final court record. Charge text on the jail profile is tied to booking and can change after prosecutor review or court appearance. The profile warning tells people to contact Detention Center staff for correct bail, charges, and case numbers. If the question is whether a charge has been filed in court, or whether it was reduced, dismissed, or indicted, court records have to be checked separately from jail custody.

Walthall County Jail Conditions

Official program information for Walthall County Jail is limited. The jail page emphasizes care, custody, control, humane and courteous treatment, facility rules, budget limits, public cooperation, and respect for rights. It does not publish a current list of GED classes, substance-abuse programs, religious services, reentry programs, grievance steps, medical services, or mental-health services. Any page that claims those programs exist at the county jail without a local source would go beyond the research.

The jail page does mention video surveillance equipment and says that surveillance helps with safety and tracking the actions of inmates housed at the jail. That is a facility-specific condition fact. For sentenced state or regional custody, use the MDOC path instead. The Marion/Walthall County Correctional Facility page covers the MDOC regional facility in Columbia, which has a different operator, warden, location, and lookup channel.
