Lookup Butler County Correctional Facility Inmates

Butler County Correctional Facility Overview

Butler County Correctional Facility is treated in the research as the county jail and local detention facility operated by the Butler County Sheriff's Office. The official county page names Sheriff David Scruggs and gives the sheriff's public office address as 801 Walnut Street, Greenville, AL 36037. No separate official jail address was found in the county sources reviewed. Local listings may refer to the jail complex with an 800 or 801 Walnut Street address, but the official public address to use is the sheriff address unless staff confirms a jail-specific address by phone.

The facility holds people arrested in Butler County while they await release, bond, first appearance, court action, transfer, or a local sentence if accepted under county authority. Arrests may begin with the sheriff's office, Greenville Police Department, or another local agency. No official county source located a separate city jail in Greenville, Georgiana, or McKenzie, and no Alabama Department of Corrections major facility, federal BOP prison, or ICE detention center was identified as being physically located in Butler County.

Because no official public browser-based jail roster was located, the Butler County Correctional Facility lookup path is practical rather than portal-first. No official roster refresh policy was found either, so a recent arrest may need phone confirmation even if the app is available. Use the sheriff app if it currently displays inmate tools, then call or visit the sheriff's office for current custody details. For court charges, use the Butler County Circuit Clerk and AlaCourt. For people sentenced to state prison, use ADOC after state intake and transfer.

Butler County Facility Population

Official Butler County jail capacity, current population, average daily population, male/female breakdown, and pretrial/sentenced breakdown were not located in official county or state sources during the research. The research specifically rejects unofficial capacity values unless a later official source verifies them. That gap matters because a facility page should not turn a directory estimate into a county fact.

Statewide ADOC population figures are not Butler County Correctional Facility figures. The research captured ADOC statewide totals from the state inmate search page, including total inmates, male and female totals, and race/sex group counts. Those numbers describe state-prison custody across Alabama, not the Butler County jail in Greenville. Use them only to understand the difference between county custody and sentenced state custody.

Lookup Butler County Jail Inmates

For a person who was just arrested in Butler County, start with the county jail and sheriff access path. The Butler County Sheriff's Office app landing page is linked from the official sheriff page. The Apple App Store listing and user reviews mention inmate or roster features, but field-by-field roster details could not be inspected from browser-accessible official sources. If the app currently exposes an inmate list, use it as the mobile roster channel. If it does not, call the sheriff's office.

1. Search the sheriff app if it currently shows an inmate or roster tool for Butler County Correctional Facility.
2. Call the Butler County Sheriff's Office at (334) 382-6521 with the person's full legal name, date of birth, arrest date, and arresting agency.
3. Ask whether the person is in Butler County custody, released on bond, transferred, held for another agency, or moved to state custody.
4. For formal court charges and hearing dates, check Butler County court information and AlaCourt ACCESS.

Use the ADOC inmate search only after a person is sentenced or otherwise appears in Alabama state-prison custody. ADOC is not the current-county-detainee roster. Use the BOP inmate locator for federal sentenced custody and ICE ODLS for adult immigration detention. Those systems do not create a Butler County jail profile.

Butler County Facility Contact

The sheriff's public office contact is the reliable official contact block found during research. It should be used for current custody questions, booking-record request instructions, jail visitation confirmation, and questions about whether the app is showing a current roster. Public office hours do not guarantee jail intake, booking desk, visitation desk, or bond desk hours.

The official Butler County Sheriff's Office page shows the sheriff's office, contact information, and app access channel.

That page supports the sheriff office address and phone. It does not publish a separate jail roster page, capacity sheet, visitation schedule, or commissary vendor.

Butler County Jail Visits

Official Butler County Correctional Facility visitation rules were not located in the county web sources reviewed. No official schedule, visit type, approval process, visitor ID rule, child-visitor rule, dress code, or attorney-visit policy was found. Do not assume that visits are in person, remote video, weekly, or available without approval. Call the sheriff's office before traveling.

Note: Confirm custody and visitation rules by phone before traveling to Greenville, especially if the person was recently booked or may have bonded out.

Butler County Mail and Money

Mail, phone, video, commissary, and money-deposit rules for Butler County Correctional Facility were not published on the official county sources reviewed. App Store reviews mention commissary access, but the research did not find an official county page naming a vendor, fee schedule, deposit link, tablet program, phone provider, or video provider. Treat those details as phone-confirmation items.

Do not send cash, personal checks, stamps, packages, or Polaroid photos unless the jail gives current written or verbal permission. Jail mail can be returned, rejected, copied, or held if it violates local rules, security limits, court orders, or privacy restrictions.

Booking at Butler County Correctional Facility

Butler County-specific booking steps were not published on the sheriff page. The research supports a careful county-jail workflow: after an arrest, the person may be taken to the sheriff detention facility for intake unless released by citation, taken for medical care, handled through juvenile procedures, or routed under another lawful process. Typical topics to verify include identity, warrants, holds, property, fingerprints, booking photo, charge entry, medical screening, suicide or mental-health screening, bond paperwork, and housing or classification.

First appearance and bond connect the jail to the court record. The Circuit Clerk is the court record keeper for District and Circuit Court proceedings, while the prosecutor decides what formal charges to pursue. A booking charge can differ from the charge later filed in court. For that reason, current custody, bond, and charge questions may require both sheriff contact and court lookup.

Detainers need special care. A detainer is a notice or hold from another agency. It can come from another county, probation or parole, a federal agency, or immigration authorities. A person may appear connected to Butler County Correctional Facility because of a local booking, but the hold may control release or transfer.

Bond and Court Flow

Bond posting rules for Butler County Correctional Facility were not found on the official sheriff page. Before trying to post bond, confirm custody, bond amount, bond type, total charges, and any no-bond or hold status. Ask whether bond must be handled at the sheriff or jail counter, through the clerk or magistrate, in municipal court, or through a licensed Alabama bonding company.

Butler County Records Access

Because no sheriff records-request form was located on the county page, the local fallback is to call or visit the sheriff's office and ask how to request booking records, jail logs, incident reports, or booking photographs under Alabama public-records law. Alabama Code Section 36-12-40 is the core public-records rule cited by Alabama state sources, but jail records may still be redacted or withheld when an exception applies.

Use Circuit Clerk Mattie Gomillion's office and AlaCourt for court records, not jail operational files. Use ADOC public-records instructions and Form 23-A for state-prison records after transfer. Use the Alabama Victim Notification System for qualifying victim or concerned-citizen notification workflows. Each system answers a different custody or record question.

Butler County Jail History

Research found a dated Eleventh Circuit opinion involving 1990s Butler County jail conditions. The opinion described serious conditions in the old jail during 1995 and 1996, including broken cell locks, lack of surveillance on the second floor, lack of headcounts, no classification system, and dangerous mixing of detainee groups. It also described more than 50 inmates at times in that historical facility. Those details are historical litigation background only.

Do not use that 1990s litigation as current evidence about Butler County Correctional Facility housing, staffing, monitoring, classification, medical care, or safety. Current jail programs, medical and mental-health services, grievance procedures, work release, accreditation, and current-condition reports were not located on official Butler County sources during the research. Confirm current conditions and restrictions with the sheriff's office.
