Where to Start for Boone County Records
Boone County does not operate a separate county jail roster in the official sources reviewed. Jail custody for Boone County arrestees is handled through Southwestern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, while Sheriff Chad Barker's office remains the local law-enforcement contact for sheriff records and arrest-related questions.

- For a person held in regional jail custody, start with jail inmate records and the WV Regional Jail Offender Search.
- For booking-photo questions, use the context on jail roster mugshots and confirm with WV DCR or the originating agency.
- For charges, case numbers, hearings, and dispositions after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Boone County court contacts.
- For facility-specific phone, location, and visitation details, use the detention facility page linked in the footer.
- For a sentenced West Virginia prisoner, search the WV DCR prison offender locator rather than the regional jail roster.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
