Where To Look

For a current Lawrence County jail question, start with the Lawrence County Sheriff's Office or Jail Division. The main jail is the Lawrence County Security Center, 1420 I Street, Bedford, IN 47421. The sheriff's main phone is 812-275-3316, the fax is 812-277-2007, the tipline is 812-277-2020, and the direct Jail Division phone is 812-277-2014. Communications can be reached at 812-275-3316 Ext. 1. Jail Commander Andrew Lynn is listed through the Jail Division, and Sheriff Greg Day is listed on the county sheriff page.

Court and clerk records are separate from jail custody records. The Lawrence County Clerk is at 916 15th Street, Room 31, Bedford, IN 47421, phone 812-275-7543, with posted hours of 8 am to 4 pm. The court phone numbers published for local routing are Circuit Court 812-275-2421, Superior Court I 812-275-3124, and Superior Court II 812-275-4161. Prosecutor Samuel C. Arp III's office is at 918 16th Street, Suite 500, Bedford, IN 47421, phone 812-275-4439.

Use the record type to choose the right path:

  • For someone in the county jail, use the sheriff app, call the Jail Division, and review jail inmate records for the local lookup path.
  • For booking photos, start with the sheriff app or Jail Division and review jail roster mugshots before making a public-records request.
  • For filed charges, court dates, case numbers, or dispositions after booking, search MyCase and review court records after a jail arrest.
  • For a facility contact, use the Lawrence County Security Center page or call the Jail Division.
  • For a sentenced Indiana state prisoner, use the Indiana Department of Correction incarcerated locator rather than the county jail.
  • For federal custody or immigration detention, use the BOP inmate locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
  • For custody notifications, use Indiana SAVIN or VINELink where the person and agency are covered.
