This is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, schedule jail services, or pull official booking records. Those requests must go to the agency, facility, or court that holds the record.
Where to Look First
Monongalia County uses several official offices for jail, court, and custody questions. North Central Regional Jail is the regional jail facility for most local custody searches. The sheriff's office handles sheriff-generated law-enforcement records and local services. Court copies route to the magistrate or circuit clerk. The key local contacts are:

Choose the route by the type of record or custody question:
- For someone in regional jail custody, start with jail inmate records and the WV Regional Jail search.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and the agency request path described there.
- For charges filed after booking, use court records after a jail arrest, then call Magistrate Court at (304) 291-7296 or the Circuit Clerk at (304) 291-7240.
- For a specific facility, use the North Central, home confinement, or FPC Morgantown pages listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation offender search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or the ICE detainee locator.
