Current adult jail
Warren County publishes one Sheriff-operated adult jail at 29 E. 2nd Street, Williamsport, IN 47993, 765-764-4367. The Jail Division is open 24 hours; the Monday-Friday 8 a.m.-4 p.m. hours describe the public office, not a visiting schedule.

Sheriff and jail scope
The county says the Sheriff keeps the jail and its prisoners. Sheriff Anthony Pruitt and the current staff roster are published, but the page does not name a separate jail commander, rated capacity or housing units. Ask 765-764-4367 for the current duty supervisor when the task requires one.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County contact directory
Do not adopt an unofficial bed count
No current county or Sheriff page reviewed publishes rated or operational capacity. Historical population tables, directory claims and neighboring same-name jails do not establish today's Warren County, Indiana capacity. Request the current inspection or capacity record if the number matters.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County public-records ordinance index · IDOC consultation and inspection of county jail operations
Confirm custody by phone and official records
No live Warren roster was established on the reviewed operator page. Call 765-764-4367 with the exact legal name and date of birth; use MyCase for the case and hearing location, and test VINE for status/notifications without treating an absent result as proof of release.

No result or changed custody
Retry spelling, aliases and hyphenation; compare the arresting agency, case number and hearing court; then call the jail. A missing result can mean booking delay, release, hospital care, youth placement or transfer. Use IDOC only for state custody, BOP for federal custody and ICE only when immigration custody is plausible.

Save the identifiers that move every task forward
Record the displayed name, date of birth, booking or jail identifier if supplied, case number, court, housing/unit if staff provides it, and the time and name of the confirming office. Reconfirm before travel, mail, deposits, bond or release pickup.

Visits and communication
Use these 11 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Current visiting mode and schedule are unpublished
The Sheriff page publishes no family visiting mode, days, hours, housing schedule, check-in cutoff, duration, frequency or lead time. Its office hours must not be converted into visit hours. Call 765-764-4367 before creating an account or driving.
Approval and booking
No current local page states whether visitors need an approved list, background screen, account, appointment or resident request. Ask which person initiates the visit, what identifier is required, how far ahead to book and what confirmation to bring.
ID, minors and guardianship
Accepted photo ID, alternatives, minimum age, parent/legal-guardian proof, birth-certificate rules and adult-to-minor ratios are unpublished. Confirm each item for the exact child and adult before travel; do not import another Indiana jail's rules.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · U.S. DOJ Title II primer
Dress, belongings and exceptions
Current dress, footwear, locker/vehicle, infant-supply, medical-device, interpreter, disability, religious, long-distance and special-visit rules are unpublished. Ask about entrance screening and exceptions and retain the staff answer.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County accessibility feedback · U.S. DOJ Title II primer
Failed, cancelled or refused visit
Save the appointment time, confirmation, device, error and any payment reference. Ask whether custody, housing, approval, discipline, staffing, equipment or a vendor account caused the failure. No local cancellation, refund, reschedule or no-show rule is published.
Attorney and professional access
The public jail page does not state confidential attorney-visit, legal-call, document-exchange, interpreter or emergency-deadline procedures. Counsel should call the jail and court, identify the case and retain written confirmation; family visiting is not a substitute.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren Circuit Court · Indiana public-defense directory
Video provider is not verified
No operator source confirms onsite video, remote video or a current visit vendor. Do not infer InmateSales, HomeWAV, Securus or ViaPath from another county or a commercial listing. Ask the jail for the exact product and facility selection before paying.
Prepare and troubleshoot video only after provider confirmation
Once the jail names a platform, verify browser/app, camera, microphone, connection, identity match and time zone. Save error screens and transaction IDs. Send billing/account problems to the confirmed provider and housing, approval or local-equipment problems to the jail.
Voice provider and account types are unpublished
No current Sheriff page identifies the resident telephone provider, prepaid/collect products, rates, international access, blocked-number process, recording rules or balance handling. Ask 765-764-4367 to name the active voice product before funding an account.
Troubleshoot calls without guessing the vendor
Confirm custody and ask whether the resident can place calls from the current unit. Record destination number, date, time, exact error and payment. The jail handles local blocks, discipline and housing; only the named provider can resolve account or billing failures.
Messages, tablets and photo products
No current local source confirms electronic messaging, tablets, Chirps, voicemail, video messages or photo attachments. A vendor product catalog is not local enrollment. Confirm product, allowed content, fees, delivery and unused-balance policy before purchase.
Mail, money and property
Use these 5 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Personal-mail destination is not verified
The jail's street address is verified for travel, but the operator does not publish a current personal-mail format, resident/booking identifiers, return-address rule or whether mail is scanned offsite. Do not use third-party 29 E. Second Street instructions until the jail confirms them.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County public-records ordinance index
Legal mail must stay separate
No current public source states the legal-mail address, addressee language, attorney marking, verification, opening or document-exchange process. Counsel should obtain instructions directly from 765-764-4367 and preserve the confirmation; do not send privileged material through an unverified personal-mail route.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren Circuit Court
Books, photos, cards and packages
Publisher-only rules, paperback limits, photo size/count, greeting-card construction, printouts, stamps, packages, rejection notice and original-item handling are unpublished. Confirm each item before purchase or shipment; never use another Warren County jail's rules.
Trust deposits and identifiers
No county source reviewed names a current kiosk, website, telephone, cash, money-order or card path, required identifier, fee, limit, hold or refund rule. Ask the jail to name the active channel and exact account type; a commissary account mentioned in medical rules does not prove a deposit vendor.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County Code · Warren County government document center
Commissary and packages are separate questions
County rules show that a commissary account exists for some charges, but do not publish the current ordering vendor, schedule, spending limits, indigent supplies or package program. Verify each task separately before sending money or ordering goods.
Sources: Warren County Code · Warren County government document center · Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail
Care, grievances and rights
Use these 6 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Medical requests, emergencies and current copays
County code says residents obtain and complete a medical-request form from jail officers; emergencies go immediately to the Sheriff or jail nurse and emergency care is available at all times. Ordinance 2026-0803H, adopted August 3, 2026, sets a $30 copay for a medical, dentist, optometrist or non-emergency hospital visit and for each prescription. Copays come from the commissary account; inability to pay cannot be used to refuse treatment, and an unpaid amount may remain as a negative balance for 180 days. Confirm the current contractor, how to submit the form and how a charge is explained or challenged.
Sources: Warren County Code · Warren County government document center · Ordinance 95-2 — Warren County Jail inmate medical policy · Ordinance 2026-0803H — County Jail Inmate Medical Copays
Medication, glasses, dental and assistive devices
County code describes emergency dental care, eye care and glasses repair, but does not publish current medication intake, pharmacy, family delivery, dentures, hearing aids or mobility-device steps. Call the jail before bringing any item; urgent symptoms go to the jail/911, not email.
Sources: Warren County Code · Ordinance 95-2 — Warren County Jail inmate medical policy · Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail
Family health communication and privacy
The jail does not publish a family medical-message line or authorization form. Families can give time-sensitive factual information to 765-764-4367, but privacy law may limit what staff returns. Ask how to document medications, suicide risk, pregnancy, disability or continuity-of-care concerns.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · HHS health-information privacy · Indiana 988
Resident grievance and appeal steps are unpublished
No public jail page states how a resident files, appeals or preserves an emergency grievance, or the response deadlines. Ask the duty supervisor for the current written policy and record the request; public-record and court routes do not replace internal exhaustion requirements.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Indiana Jail Standards · Warren County public-records ordinance index
Disability accommodation route
Warren County publishes a countywide accessibility contact at 765-764-5880 and hr@warrencounty.in.gov, but no jail-specific ADA coordinator, request form, visit accommodation or appeal. For jail operations, contact 765-764-4367 first and escalate confirmed county access barriers through the published county route.
Sources: Warren County accessibility feedback · U.S. DOJ Title II primer · Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Indiana Civil Rights Commission
PREA reporting remains a local gap
No operator page publishes a third-party sexual-abuse report phone, email, mailing address, anonymity rule or external investigator. For immediate danger call the jail/911; ask the jail for its PREA reporting route and use the national directory only to identify the responsible local channel.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · National PREA Resource Center reporting directory · Indiana Jail Standards
Court, bond and release
Use these 7 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Court, case and hearing location
Use MyCase for the case, charges, judge, filings and hearing location. Warren Circuit Court and the Clerk are at 125 N. Monroe Street, not at the jail. Confirm deadline-sensitive information with the Clerk at 765-764-5888; the jail cannot change a court order.
Sources: Indiana MyCase · Warren Circuit Court · Warren County Clerk
Public defender and private counsel
Public-defense appointment is controlled by the court, not the jail. Check MyCase and the court file, contact the Clerk/court, and use the state directory for local appointed-defense information. Do not ask jail staff to select counsel or give legal advice.
Sources: Indiana MyCase · Indiana public-defense directory · Indiana public-defender appointment FAQ · Warren Circuit Court
Bond and pretrial release are case-specific
Local rules allow assessed defendants to be approved for recognizance release within the court's pretrial matrix and also preserve case-specific bail. The Clerk, court order and counsel control amount and form. Call the jail for custody/release processing and the Clerk for the filed order; do not assume a universal cash or percentage option.
Sources: Warren Circuit Court local rules · Warren County Pretrial Release Program · Warren County Clerk · Indiana MyCase
Cash bond may later be applied by the Clerk
Local rule LR86-CR2.6-251 says a cash bond can be applied to infraction-deferral or pretrial-diversion costs when the defendant enters those programs. This is not a jail deposit rule. Ask the Clerk about payee, accepted instrument, receipt and eventual disposition for the exact case.
Sources: Warren Circuit Court local rules · Warren County Clerk · Warren County Prosecuting Attorney
Personal-property release is unpublished
No current local page states authorization, eligible recipient, ID, pickup entrance, hours, deadline, stored property or disposal. Confirm custody first, then ask 765-764-4367 for the exact resident authorization and pickup sequence before driving.
Release time and pickup point are not promised
No published local rule promises a time, door, curb or notification. Court action, holds, transport, records and medication/property processing can delay departure. Confirm the court order separately, wait for the jail to say processing is complete and use a flexible pickup plan.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Indiana MyCase · Warren Circuit Court local rules
Supervision and reentry boundaries
Probation/Pretrial, the Bi-County Accountability Court and West Central Regional Community Corrections are separate systems. A person is not enrolled merely by leaving jail. Use the written release order and assigned officer; for food, shelter, treatment or identification referrals use the named program and Indiana 211.
Sources: Warren County Probation and Pretrial · Warren/Fountain Bi-County Accountability Court · West Central Regional Community Corrections · Indiana 211
Arrival and local planning
Use these 7 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Arrival and public entrance
Navigate to 29 E. 2nd Street, not the county courthouse at 125 N. Monroe or prosecutor at 223 E. 2nd. The operator does not publish the public entrance, screening sequence, accessible entrance or after-hours visitor door. Call before leaving the vehicle.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County Clerk · Warren County Prosecuting Attorney
Parking and waiting boundaries
No official jail page designates visitor parking, accessible spaces, tow restrictions or a release waiting area. Do not treat nearby courthouse or private spaces as jail parking. Ask the jail where to park and whether waiting in a vehicle is permitted.
Sources: Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County accessibility feedback
No current general-public transit operator is verified
INDOT's current public-transit list does not name a Warren County provider. A dated resource guide and court Free Lift references do not establish general visitor or release service. No service dates, fixed jail stop, fare, final pedestrian path or guaranteed release pickup are asserted.
Sources: INDOT Indiana public transit systems · INDOT Region 6 coordinated transportation plan · Warren and Fountain area community resources · Warren Circuit Court Free Lift Program
Rural travel and final approach
Warren County describes itself as rural. Check road conditions, weather, fuel and return transportation before departure. Because no official final pedestrian path or parking plan is published, travelers with mobility needs should confirm door, curb and assistance directly.
Sources: Warren County government · Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail · Warren County accessibility feedback
Food and basic-needs contacts
The county publishes local pantry contacts and a business directory; Warren County Common Grounds is a direct local food/coffee option. Verify current address, hours, eligibility and stock before relying on any stop. Indiana 211 can identify broader food or emergency resources.
Sources: Warren County food assistance · Warren County business directory · Warren County Common Grounds · Indiana 211
Lodging requires live confirmation
No jail-endorsed lodging or guaranteed Williamsport room was found in current operator sources. Use the county business directory and Indiana 211, call properties directly and confirm address, late arrival, accessibility, taxes, cancellation and availability; do not rely on search-result pricing.
Sources: Warren County business directory · Indiana 211
Local information and document access
Williamsport-Washington Township Public Library can support local information, computer and printing needs during posted hours. It cannot confirm custody or jail rules. Keep booking/court documents private on shared devices and use the jail, court or Clerk for authoritative answers.

Verification and next action
Use these 3 locally researched topics in sequence and confirm every exception.
Request the current written policy
When a procedure is unpublished, ask the Sheriff for the current visitor, mail, money, grievance, ADA, PREA, property or release policy. Indiana's inspection policy says jail inspection reports become public records after the prescribed review period. A records request is not a live-custody or emergency channel.
Sources: Warren County public-records ordinance index · IDOC consultation and inspection of county jail operations · Warren County Sheriff Department / Jail
Use evidence by task and date
Use the live Sheriff page for identity and 24-hour jail operation; the court/Clerk sources for cases and release orders; county code for the local medical-request process; and Ordinance 2026-0803H for the current published copay amounts and collection rule. Unpublished details remain questions.

One call before each irreversible step
Before travel, payment or shipment, confirm current custody, exact task, destination or platform, required identifier, deadline, fee and exception with 765-764-4367 or the responsible court/provider. Record date, time, staff office and instructions; ask for written policy when the answer conflicts.

Facility record / Indiana
Warren County Jail is a county or city jail in Williamsport, Warren County, Indiana.
Jail411 does not hold custody records. A listing here does not mean anyone is held at this address. Confirm the person’s location with the responsible agency before you travel, send money, or pay for a service.
Where this record came from. The contact, status and security fields, with capacity and population, come from the HIFLD and Federal Bureau of Prisons directory release refreshed February 2026. They describe the record, not today’s population. Check the facility’s current official website.

Before you travel, pay, or mail anything
Get two things first: which facility the person is actually in, and their booking or ID number. Almost nothing works without them. Then check this facility’s current instructions — rules and service providers change.
Clear information.
Clear boundaries.
Jail411 is an independent information resource for families and friends. We are not a government agency, jail operator, law firm or live custody-records service.
Can Jail411 tell me if someone is in custody right now?
No. Jail411 does not hold live custody records. Use the official locator for the county, state, federal or ICE system that has the person; start here if you do not know which.
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 before you pay.
What should I confirm before visiting?
The person's current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility page and its official sources before you travel.
What if I find something that needs correcting?
Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Include the official source when you have one. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
