What This Site Covers
Mississippi law recognizes public access to many government records, including records requested under the Mississippi Public Records Act, Miss. Code Section 25-61-1. The difficult part for many readers is understanding that local jail custody, sentenced state custody, federal custody, immigration custody, and notification systems are not the same thing. This site brings those jail, court, mugshot, facility, and locator topics into one local Perry County reference.
What You Can Read Here
The main pages explain the record types most people look for after a Perry County arrest or custody transfer.
- Guidance for jail inmate records, jail roster mugshots, and court records after a jail arrest.
- A facility page for the Perry County Jail / Perry Co MS Detention Center with the documented sheriff address, phone number, and local detention context.
- Plain-language help for situations where no official Perry County online jail roster was located and another lookup path may be needed.
- Background on booking records, mugshot access, court records, public-records limits, and the difference between county jail custody and sentenced state custody.
What This Site Cannot Do

- We cannot release, hold, transport, or transfer a person in custody.
