Grady County Jail Roster Status
No official Grady County Georgia web jail roster with searchable current inmates was located in the inspected official county or sheriff sources. The county sheriff page links sex offender resources, not a jail roster. The newer sheriff site advertises the MySheriff mobile app and public news or alerts, but the research did not confirm an inmate roster feature or capture App Store and Google Play URLs.
For a current local inmate search, use the Grady County Sheriff's Office and jail contact route. The sheriff is Earl Prince, also shown by the sheriff site as Martin "Earl" Prince. The sheriff office and jail are listed at 115 16th Ave NE in Cairo, with phone (229) 377-5200. The jail page identifies Major John I. Walton as jail administrator and says the facility processes over 2,000 people per year.
A county jail inquiry should stay separate from a court-record search. Jail staff may be able to confirm custody, release, transfer, or hold status, while the Clerk of Court keeps the filed criminal case record after charges move into court. A person can be booked without a final court disposition, and a case can remain active after the person is released on bond.
The jail source image comes from the official jail information page: Grady County Detention Facility jail information.
That jail page is the source for visitation, commissary, property, and bonding guidance, but it does not provide a searchable public inmate list.
Search Grady County Inmate Records
Since the research found no public Grady County inmate roster portal, the best search method is a direct official inquiry. Be ready with the person's full name, date of birth if known, arresting agency if known, and the approximate booking date. If the person may have been sentenced to state prison or moved into federal custody, use the state or federal locator instead of the county jail.
- Call the Grady County Sheriff's Office and Detention Facility at (229) 377-5200.
- Ask whether the person is currently booked, recently released, transferred, or held on another agency's warrant.
- If the jail cannot confirm local custody, search the Georgia Department of Corrections offender query for sentenced state offenders.
- If the case is federal, search the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator or contact the federal court or U.S. Attorney records path.
- For court charges after booking, check the court record path through the Clerk of Court or the related criminal case file.
| Search Channel | Best For | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Grady County Sheriff's Office | Recent bookings, local jail custody, warrant holds, release questions | No public roster fields located |
| Georgia DOC offender query | Sentenced adult offenders in state custody | Not a county jail roster |
| BOP inmate locator | Federal inmates from 1982 to present | Not for Grady County jail detainees |
| Clerk of Court | Charges, case filings, pleas, disposition, sentence | Court case files are separate from jail custody |
Grady County Inmate Search Fields
The local jail roster field inventory is intentionally limited because no official public Grady Georgia roster screen was found. Do not infer mugshot, booking number, cell, bond, court date, or release-date fields from another county's site. For local custody, the available "fields" are the identifying details needed when calling or visiting the sheriff.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| No public Grady Georgia roster found | N/A | N/A | Use sheriff phone, in-person, or confirmed app fallback. |
| Full name | Inquiry detail | Recommended | Needed to check recent local bookings. |
| Date of birth | Inquiry detail | Recommended if known | Helps separate people with similar names. |
| Booking or arrest date | Inquiry detail | Optional | Useful when asking about recent intake or release. |
For state prison records, Georgia.gov says adult offenders can be searched by name, ID or case number, age, and identifying information. The Georgia Department of Corrections offender query carries a disclaimer and should be verified through written correspondence when an official result is needed.
The Georgia DOC source image shows the statewide offender search channel: Georgia DOC offender query.
Use that state system only after separating state prison custody from Grady County jail custody.
What Grady County Inmate Records Show
No official Grady Georgia inmate profile was opened in a local public system, so there is no local sample profile inventory to copy. Jail staff may be able to confirm limited custody facts, but the public page should not promise a mugshot, booking number, housing unit, bond amount, or projected release date. Those details may exist internally without being published online.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Local Grady public profile | No official public profile located during research. |
| Custody status | Ask the sheriff or jail whether the person is booked, released, transferred, or held. |
| Charge information | May require the court case record or booking confirmation, not a public roster. |
| Bond information | Ask the jail or the issuing court, especially if the person is held on a warrant. |
| State DOC profile | May show state-offender information if the person is in GDC custody. |
| Federal BOP profile | May show federal custody and release-date data for federal inmates. |
The Georgia.gov offender-search guidance reinforces the split between state and county custody: Georgia.gov find an offender.
That state guidance is useful when a Grady County arrest later becomes a state prison sentence.
Grady County Jail Facility
The researched local detention facility is the Grady County Detention Facility, also listed as the Grady County Sheriff's Department and Jail. Capacity was not found in official Grady or GDC sources, so no capacity figure should be stated. The jail is for recent arrestees, pretrial detainees, short local sentences, and people held on warrants or transfers.
Grady County Detention Facility
115 16th Ave NE
Cairo, GA 39828
(229) 377-5200
Sheriff office hours: Monday-Thursday 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
Mailing information in the sheriff sources uses P.O. Box 690, Cairo, Georgia 39828. The jail page does not publish a full inmate-mail format, inmate ID rule, scanned-mail policy, or money-deposit fee schedule, so call before sending mail or funds.
The jail page also gives practical local details that do not appear in state prison searches. Detainees receive two hot meals per day and may order from A & S Commissary for snack food, personal hygiene, stamps, and prepaid phone cards up to $50.00 at a given order. Indigent detainees with a continuous zero balance receive basic hygiene and may request a stamp and envelope once a week.
Grady County Booking and Bond
A local booking can follow an arrest by the sheriff, Cairo Police, Georgia State Patrol, or another agency. Intake commonly includes identity checks, property handling, a booking photo, charge entry, warrant checks, medical or security screening, and housing assignment. The exact initial-appearance schedule for Grady County was not located, so ask the jail or court when a first appearance or bond hearing will occur.
The jail page lists two bonding companies: M & M Bonding at 229-377-5090 and S & S Bonding at 229-377-7992. The jail states the office does not promote any bonding company. Sheriff's personnel are not allowed to recommend bonding companies, give advice, or become involved with bonding decisions.
Note: For the charges and court outcome after booking, use the court case file rather than the jail custody record.
Grady County Jail Visitation
Grady County jail visitation is published by inmate group and the first letter of the inmate's last name. Visits listed on the jail page are short. Rules include no provocative or revealing clothing, no T-shirts with profanity, and no pocketbooks, cell phones, or cameras. Visitor ID rules, child visitor rules, video visitation, attorney visitation, background checks, and holiday changes were not located, so call the jail before travel.
| Inmate Group | Day | Time | Visit Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Male inmates last name A-M | Saturday | 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | 15 minutes |
| Male inmates last name N-Z | Sunday | 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | 15 minutes |
| Female inmates, all | Saturday | 8:00 a.m.-9:00 a.m. | 15 minutes |
| Trustees, all | Saturday | 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | 15 minutes |

Commissary and Property Rules
The jail page says detainees receive two hot meals per day and may order from A & S Commissary for snack food, personal hygiene, stamps, and prepaid phone cards. The published order cap is up to $50.00 at any given order. Detainees with a continuous zero balance who are deemed indigent receive basic hygiene, and they may receive a stamp and envelope once a week upon request to write family or friends.
Within 24 hours of arrest or booking, family or friends may bring only certain new-in-package property listed by the jail: white T-shirts, boxers, white bras without underwire, white underwear, white socks, a small flexible comb without sharp ends, a softback Bible, and white winter thermal underwear. The page does not publish online deposit channels, kiosk rules, phone provider, call rates, or tablet details.
State and Federal Inmate Records
State and federal inmate records are separate from Grady County jail records. The Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to present. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Georgia handles federal prosecutions, which are separate from Grady County prosecutions in state courts.
The BOP source image shows the federal inmate locator: BOP inmate locator.
A federal locator result does not confirm a current Grady County jail booking; it confirms federal custody or federal release information.
The federal prosecution source image comes from the Middle District of Georgia U.S. Attorney page: U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Georgia.
Use federal sources only when the custody or case is federal, not when the person was booked into the local Grady County jail.
