Yazoo Regional Facility Overview
Yazoo County Regional Correctional Facility, also listed by MDOC as Yazoo Regional Correctional Facility, is the primary local custody facility in Yazoo County. The Mississippi Department of Corrections identifies it as a regional facility, while the PREA audit identifies the operating agency as the Yazoo County Sheriff's Office. That dual role matters for an inmate search. The facility appears in MDOC population reports because it houses MDOC regional inmates, but the public current-custody path for Yazoo County is the local Yazoo RCF site that links into Public Safety Cloud and JailTracker.
The facility holds adult male inmates in medium and minimum custody. The PREA audit found no youthful inmates in the population reviewed. It also describes the regional population as medically stable and as not needing mental-health supervision beyond what the facility can manage. If a person can no longer be managed at this regional level, the audit notes that transfer back to MDOC custody is possible. For routine public lookup, that means the Yazoo roster may show regional custody while the MDOC locator remains the right tool after a state transfer.
The MDOC facility page for Yazoo Regional Correctional Facility is the source image match for the facility listing.
The MDOC listing is useful for the address, phone, regional classification, and warden name, while the local roster path remains the better place to check current public custody.

Yazoo Facility Roster Lookup
Current public custody for Yazoo County Regional Correctional Facility starts at the official Yazoo RCF landing page. That page links to a current-inmate page, which loads the Public Safety Cloud JailTracker roster for Yazoo County. This is the correct place to begin for the regional facility. Do not use the BOP locator for this facility, because the BOP locator covers the separate federal prison complex in Yazoo City. Do not rely on the MDOC locator first unless the person has been moved into sentenced state custody outside the local regional roster path.
- Open the Yazoo RCF landing page and follow the current-inmate link to the JailTracker roster.
- Search by last name, first name, or other available JailTracker options shown in the public application.
- Check whether the person is listed as current or released, since the model supports current-only and released-since logic.
- Review the available fields for facility, booking date, charges, bond, court data, release date, and image status.
- If the person is not listed, call Yazoo RCF or check MDOC, BOP, or ICE based on the custody type.
The roster application model includes name fields, original booking date and time, final release date and time, arresting agency, charge descriptions, bond type and amount, court dates, warrant number fields, and image fields. A live public profile was not captured during research, so any image or mugshot availability should be confirmed on the live entry. For a fuller explanation of roster fields, the Yazoo County jail inmate records page follows the same JailTracker path.
Yazoo Facility Contact Card
The facility phone is the first contact for current custody, visit status, and local mail or money questions that are not published online. The sheriff's office is the fallback for local jail records, jail-docket questions, or public-records routing when the matter is a sheriff or county record rather than an MDOC record.

Yazoo Facility Visitation Search
Official Yazoo-specific visitation hours were not found in the source set. MDOC family material says regional facilities may use local phone systems and local arrangements, so visitors should contact the facility before travel. That is important because the PREA and MDOC materials describe Yazoo as a regional facility, but they do not publish a day-by-day visitor schedule, video schedule, dress code page, parking rule, or entry-point instruction for Yazoo RCF.
| Facility | Published Schedule | What to Do |
|---|---|---|
| Yazoo County Regional Correctional Facility | Not published in official sources | Call 662-751-8484 before travel. |
| In-person visits | Not confirmed | Ask about approval, ID, dress code, and arrival time. |
| Video visits | Not confirmed | Ask whether a local vendor or facility kiosk is used. |
| Special restrictions | Not published | Confirm lockdowns, transfers, and visit suspension before driving. |
Note: A roster match does not guarantee a visit will be allowed that day, so call the facility before travel.
Yazoo Mail Phone Money
Yazoo-specific mail, phone, and commissary rules were not published in the reviewed official pages. MDOC general family guidance says mail should include the inmate's name, MDOC number, current housing unit, institution or facility name, address, and the sender's full return address. It also says inmates cannot receive money through the mail. MDOC names Premier Services for inmate banking, but the research flags that applicability should be confirmed for Yazoo RCF because regional facilities may use local arrangements.
| Service | Provider or Detail | Verification Point |
|---|---|---|
| Use inmate name, MDOC number if known, housing, facility name, and full return address. | Confirm format with Yazoo RCF. | |
| Phone | MDOC says regional facilities may use local phone systems. | Call 662-751-8484. |
| Money | MDOC general guide names Premier Services, but Yazoo RCF use was not confirmed. | Confirm before sending funds. |
| Fees | No Yazoo-specific fee schedule was found. | Ask the facility or vendor before payment. |
Yazoo Facility Intake Records
Booking at Yazoo County Regional Correctional Facility creates the custody record that feeds the roster. The JailTracker model supports original booking date and time, arrest date, arresting agency, charge data, bond, court fields, facility fields, status fields, image fields, and release date data. Mississippi law also requires the sheriff to keep a jail docket with prisoner identity and commitment or discharge facts. That docket duty helps explain why the sheriff's office remains an important fallback when the public roster does not answer a record question.
- Regional facility
- A Mississippi facility that may house MDOC regional inmates while still serving as a local public roster source.
- Jail docket
- The sheriff-maintained record of county prisoners and key commitment, sentence, fee, and discharge facts.
- Detainer
- A hold request from another agency that may affect release even when local bond information appears.
- Classification
- The custody and housing review used to place a person in a safe security level.
About Yazoo Facility Programs
The PREA audit lists Adult Education, Alcohol and Drug treatment, Anger Management, Basic Computer Skills, Bible Study, Parenting, and Pre Release or Smart Start among programs documented at the facility. MDOC also announced in May 2026 that Yazoo County Regional Correctional Facility earned American Correctional Association reaccreditation after a May 11 through May 13 audit, with 100 percent compliance on mandatory and non-mandatory Adult Correctional Institution standards. Yazoo County Board minutes from May 18, 2026 recorded Warden Jacqueline Morton and consultant Jerry Williams reporting the reaccreditation result to the board.
Recent news should be read as dated event reporting, not as a standing condition claim. Research noted an August 2024 local report about an inmate death investigation and a March 2024 report about an escape. The 2026 reaccreditation notice is the more current official facility-quality source in the research set. Custody, visits, and housing can still change on short notice.
Note: Confirm custody, transfer status, and visitation directly with Yazoo RCF before sending mail, money, or visitors.
