Fax: 803-377-1813
Published office hours were not found in the reviewed local source. Call before traveling for custody, visitation, or record-copy questions.
For a custody question, start with the JailTracker roster or the detention phone number. For copies of booking records, incident records, booking photos, or older records not shown online, use a South Carolina FOIA request to the sheriff or county office that created the record.
- For someone currently held at the county jail, use jail inmate records and the Chester County JailTracker roster.
- For a booking image, start with jail roster mugshots; if no image is posted, South Carolina FOIA is the formal request path.
- For charges, hearings, warrants, and case status after booking, use court records after a jail arrest and the Chester Public Index.
- For the local jail address and detention-specific notes, use the Chester County Detention Center facility page listed in the footer.
- For a person sentenced to South Carolina state prison, search SCDC rather than the county jail roster.
- For federal or immigration custody, use BOP or ICE locator tools. VINELink may help with custody notifications when the relevant agency participates.
