Elliott County Recent Arrests is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the government office that maintains the record.


Find the Right Record Office

The official Elliott County directory lists the same published phone number for the Sheriff and Jailer. It does not identify a separate records-unit or non-emergency line. State whether the request concerns an arrest report, intake record, custody status, release or transfer, or booking photograph, then ask for the open-records custodian or the facility holding the person.

Different questions belong with different custodians:

  • For an arrest report or releasable booking photo, begin with the county arrest-record path and ask the Sheriff or Jailer which office holds the item.
  • For a person just booked, use the Daily Arrest Report route, then confirm the accepting facility with the Jailer because no official Elliott same-day feed was verified.
  • For current custody or release and transfer alerts, search Kentucky VINE and confirm an important result with the facility.
  • For a criminal case, amended charge, dismissal, plea, or disposition, contact the Elliott Circuit Clerk at 100 Main Street, Sandy Hook, KY 41171, (606) 738-5232 or (606) 738-5238.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner's profile or photo, use the Kentucky Department of Corrections offender lookup or its written open-records process.
  • For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator. Immigration detention uses the separate ICE detainee locator.

Little Sandy Correctional Complex is a state prison in Sandy Hook, not a county intake jail. Historical reporting identifies Big Sandy Regional Detention Center as an Elliott booking destination in older cases, but the current housing contract must be confirmed with the Jailer.
