Why This Guide Exists
Alabama law recognizes public access to many public writings, including Alabama Code 36-12-40, but a jail search is still practical only when you know which agency has the record. Butler County Correctional Facility is run by the Butler County Sheriff's Office for local arrests and county jail custody. Sentenced state prisoners move through the Alabama Department of Corrections, federal prisoners are searched through the Bureau of Prisons, and immigration custody uses ICE ODLS. This site organizes those rosters, locators, contact points, and request steps in one Butler County-focused place.
What You Can Use Here
The pages focus on the questions people usually have after an arrest or custody transfer in Butler County.
- Guidance for jail inmate records, jail roster mugshots, and court records after a jail arrest.
- A facility page for Butler County Correctional Facility, including the sheriff contact address and phone number.
- Plain-language steps for checking the sheriff app channel, calling the sheriff's office, and using the ADOC inmate search for sentenced state custody.
- Records-request context for booking records or photos when a public web roster is not available.
What This Site Cannot Handle
This is a privately run reference site. It is not connected to the Butler County Sheriff's Office, Butler County Correctional Facility, ADOC, ICE, BOP, AlaCourt, or any Alabama government agency.
- We cannot release, hold, move, or transfer anyone in custody.
- We cannot post bond, schedule jail visits, or send commissary money for you.
- We cannot provide legal advice about charges, warrants, bond, plea decisions, or expungement.
- We cannot promise that every phone number, office hour, fee, link, or address remains current.
For current custody status, charges, release information, or official records, verify directly with the Butler County Sheriff's Office, the Butler County Circuit Clerk, ADOC, BOP, ICE, or the issuing agency.
Search Partner Disclosure
Some pages include search boxes or links operated by third-party providers. Those providers set their own pricing, terms, and result rules. If a visitor chooses a paid signup or paid search through one of those tools, this site may receive a referral fee. That support helps keep the guide available, but it does not give this site control over partner prices, reports, or data coverage.
Keeping Details Current
Jail rosters, app features, visitation rules, phone vendors, public hours, and record request practices can change without much public notice. Butler County's official sheriff page lists Sheriff David Scruggs, 801 Walnut Street in Greenville, phone (334) 382-6521, and weekday public hours, but readers should call before relying on those details for a trip or time-sensitive request.
