Locate Knox County Community Corrections Records

Knox County Community Corrections Overview

Knox County Community Corrections is listed by Knox County government at 2435 S Old Decker Rd in Vincennes. The county page names Scott Brown as director and gives the office phone, email, and public hours. The program is relevant to inmate-population research because community-corrections supervision can lead to a jail booking when a person is sanctioned, arrested, held, or accused of a work-release or community-corrections violation.

Public county materials do not describe Knox County Community Corrections as the county jail. They do not publish a participant roster, bed count, jail visitation plan, commissary provider, housing-unit list, or detention-security level. The facility belongs in the detention map because the Knox County Jail roster includes entries tied to community-corrections holds and work-release violations. That makes the relationship practical: the supervision office may be the underlying program, while the sheriff-run jail is the locked-custody roster source.

Knox County Community Corrections Capacity

No official source inspected for this build published a bed capacity, average daily participant count, residential count, home-detention count, work-release count, or annual admissions total for Knox County Community Corrections. The absence matters because this page should not imply that the program has the same kind of jail population count as Knox County Jail. If a person is physically booked into jail because of a work-release violation or community-corrections hold, that person is counted in the jail roster, not in a public Community Corrections roster.

Knox Community Corrections Lookup

There is no public Knox County Community Corrections participant roster in the official sources inspected. The lookup path depends on the person's legal and custody status. If a person is in locked custody after a violation, sanction, arrest, warrant, or court order, search the Knox County Jail roster first. If the person is supervised in the community and not booked, call the Community Corrections office for routing. If the person has moved to an Indiana prison sentence, use the Indiana Department of Correction locator.

1. Search the sheriff's Knox County Jail inmate roster for current locked custody.
2. Look for charge or hold text such as work-release violation, community-corrections hold, probation violation, or court hold.
3. Call Community Corrections during office hours for supervision-program questions that are not answered by the jail roster.
4. Call Knox County Jail if the roster shows the person in custody and the question concerns release, bond, visit rules, mail, or commissary.
5. Use the IDOC locator if sentencing or transfer moved the person into state prison custody.

Community corrections

Local correctional supervision that may include work release, home detention, sanctions, or other court-linked programs.

Work release

A supervised status that may allow approved work while the person remains under correctional control.

Hold

A custody reason that can keep a person in jail even when a separate charge line shows no money amount.

Knox Community Corrections Contact

The office contact is the right starting point for non-emergency questions about Community Corrections supervision, appointments, office hours, and program routing. It is not the right line for a full jail inmate-status confirmation unless the person is booked into Knox County Jail. For a current jail roster entry, use the sheriff or jail phone. For court dates, filed charges, and documents, use Indiana MyCase or the Knox County Clerk.

The screenshot source for the official Knox County Community Corrections page shows the county contact block used for the address, hours, director, email, and phone.

The county page is the strongest official source for this facility, but it does not publish a participant list or jail-style housing policy.

Knox Community Corrections Visits

Knox County Community Corrections is not documented as a full-service jail with public social visitation. Official county materials did not publish visit days, remote video visits, social-visit registration, commissary deposits, mail room rules, or a visitor dress code for this office. If a person is booked into Knox County Jail for a community-corrections hold or work-release violation, then the jail's call-to-confirm visit process applies. If the person is only under supervision, office appointments and program instructions should be confirmed with Community Corrections.

Note: Call the office or jail before making travel plans because supervision meetings and jail visits are different processes.

Knox Community Corrections Mail

Official sources did not publish a Community Corrections mail policy, commissary account, money-deposit provider, resident phone system, or video provider for this office. That is expected for a supervision-oriented office. Do not send funds through a jail vendor unless the person is actually booked into Knox County Jail and the jail confirms the current service. For locked custody, the sheriff site links JailATM for commissary and InmateSales for communication, with a GettingOut/Telmate facility page also present for the jail. Those jail channels should not be treated as Community Corrections participant accounts.

Community Corrections Holds

The Knox County Jail roster gives the clearest public link between Community Corrections and locked custody. Research found roster text for a five-day hold placed by community corrections and a work-release violation. These entries show why a person may be connected to Community Corrections but still appear in the sheriff-run jail roster. A sanction, violation, court order, new arrest, or hold can move the immediate custody question from the supervision office to the jail.

The roster can also show probation violations, parole violations, bond revocations, failures to appear, out-of-county holds, and court entries. A zero amount shown in a charge line does not mean release is free or automatic. It may reflect a hold, violation, no-bond status, revocation, or agency decision that must be cleared before release. If the case has formal court activity, search MyCase and compare the booking date, charge type, and court name.

Knox County Supervision Records

Indiana public-records access may support requests for specific jail or government records, but not every supervision file is public in full. Confidential, investigatory, juvenile, sealed, expunged, medical, victim, witness, and security-sensitive records may be withheld or redacted. For jail booking records tied to Community Corrections, the sheriff is the local custody source. For court orders or violation filings, MyCase and the Knox County Clerk are the court-record path. For state prison records, IDOC is separate.

A practical request should identify the person's full name, known booking date, inmate ID if listed, court cause number if known, and the exact record sought. Examples include a jail roster entry as of a date, booking sheet, booking photograph, release or transfer date if available, or a court document. Do not ask Community Corrections to provide legal advice, alter a court date, post bond, or confirm confidential supervision details through a public web search.

Knox Sheriff App Access

The Knox County IN Sheriff's mobile app is part of the same OCV sheriff-app platform that supports the public sheriff site. Store listings describe reporting crimes, submitting tips, receiving public safety information, and using interactive features. The sheriff manifest includes Inmate Search, Submit A Tip, Sex Offenders, Most Wanted, Recent News, Commissary, Court Case, Inmate Communication, Incident Report, and Crash Report modules. No app-only Community Corrections roster was confirmed.

The app may still help when the sheriff's JavaScript inmate route is hard to use in a browser. It should not be used for emergencies. Store listings and sheriff form language direct emergencies and crimes in progress to 911. The app can route users to sheriff tools, but Community Corrections office questions still depend on the county office contact, and locked custody still depends on the Knox County Jail roster or phone line.

The Apple App Store Knox County IN Sheriff's listing documents the app identity and public-safety purpose.

The app listing supports app access as an additional sheriff channel, not as a separate Community Corrections participant roster.

About Knox Community Corrections

Knox County Community Corrections sits near the Knox County Jail on Old Decker Road, but its public role is different. The jail is the county's current public roster facility. Community Corrections is the county office tied to local supervision and work-release matters. The official page gives address, hours, director, phone, and email, but not a housing manual, participant rules, capacity report, or visitation policy. Those gaps should be treated as call-to-confirm items.

For most search needs, the first question is status. If the person is in jail, search the Knox County Jail roster and call the jail for release, visits, mail, and money. If the person is under supervision and not booked, call Community Corrections during its office hours. If the person has been sentenced to IDOC, use the state locator. If the person is in federal or immigration custody, use BOP or ICE instead of Knox County systems.
