Community Corrections, probation, courts, municipal police, youth, IDOC, BOP and out-of-state sites are separate. CPC, GettingOut, Securus and Tiger are task-specific providers, not facilities. Search the Indiana jail portal, then call 812-446-2535 for the exact identifier. If ICE custody is confirmed, use ICE-specific phone, visit, mail and complaint rules. Call Thrive at 812-232-2675 to confirm a deviation to the public door and reserve both directions.

Different custody systems.
Different places to start.

A Clay County arrest usually means the county jail. A state sentence, a federal case or an immigration hold means a different system with its own locator and rules.

Who holds someone arrested in Clay County?

Usually Clay County Jail, (812) 442-9910. The arresting agency books the person and the jail holds them; ask the jail what holds are on the booking before you act on anything.

Does posting bond mean the person comes home?

Not always. A probation or parole hold, another county\'s warrant, or an immigration detainer can keep someone in custody after bond is posted. Ask the jail what holds are on the booking, and ask the bondsman what happens if there are, before you pay.

What should I confirm before visiting?

Confirm the person\'s current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility guide before you travel.

What if I find something that needs correcting?

Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
