Floyd County Jail Overview

The Floyd County Jail is operated by the Floyd County Sheriff's Department. It is the only local detention facility identified for a dedicated Floyd County facility page in the research file. The jail shares the sheriff headquarters location at 175 W. Spring Street in New Albany and handles local detention functions tied to arrests, court appearances, transport, and jail security.

The sheriff's jail information page states that the facility houses pretrial detainees, county-sentenced inmates, state offenders, and federal offenders. That custody mix is important. Someone newly arrested in New Albany, Georgetown, unincorporated Floyd County, or by another local agency may be booked into Floyd County Jail, while a person sentenced to Indiana Department of Correction custody may later move out of the county jail and into a statewide DOC facility assignment.

The sheriff's divisions page describes Corrections as responsible for care, custody, control, transportation, court services, and building security. Local sheriff materials also identify Sheriff Steve Bush as the elected sheriff and Captain Gene Perrot as Corrections Commander. Those names are useful for understanding agency responsibility, but custody, bond, and visitation questions should still go through AIS, Corrections, or the jail's published procedures.

Floyd County Jail Capacity and Population

The current official sheriff divisions page describes Floyd County Jail as a 363-bed facility. Older official Indiana criminal-code reform jail inspection data listed Floyd County with 291 inmates, 234 beds, and 124.4% capacity. Those older numbers should be treated as a historical overcrowding and inspection-dataset snapshot, not as the live current jail count. The research did not locate a current sheriff dashboard or daily roster count for Floyd County Jail.

Local reporting helps explain the difference between the older 234-bed figure and the current 363-bed capacity statement. News coverage described a renovation that converted space and increased capacity without a full new building footprint. For current public-facing capacity, the sheriff's 363-bed figure is the stronger local official anchor. For a population snapshot, the older 291-inmate dataset remains useful only when it is clearly labeled as an older official dataset.

How to Look Up an Inmate at Floyd County Jail

Floyd County does not lead with a county-hosted public roster page in the official jail materials reviewed. The local lookup path starts with the jail's automated information system and Corrections number, then expands to MobilePatrol and Indiana SAVIN. The county's sheriff resources and FAQ page is the local support for that phone-and-app route. If a person has moved into sentenced state custody, use the Indiana Department of Correction locator. For filed court charges and hearing dates, search Indiana MyCase or contact the Floyd County Clerk.

1. Call Floyd County Jail AIS at 812-948-5406 and choose option #2 for an incarcerated individual.
2. Call Corrections at 812-948-5404 for inmate information, bond procedures, and jail-related questions.
3. Use MobilePatrol because the sheriff FAQ identifies the app as an inmate-information channel.
4. Search Indiana SAVIN by name, offender ID, or case/cause number for custody status and notifications.
5. Use IDOC, BOP, or ICE only when the custody question has moved outside ordinary Floyd County Jail custody.

The statewide INjail Public Portal exists for participating Indiana counties, but Floyd County was not in the visible participating-county list during the research inspection. Treat INjail as a statewide portal that may change over time, not as the verified main Floyd County lookup channel.

Floyd County Jail Address and Contact

The jail and sheriff headquarters are in downtown New Albany. The sheriff site lists lobby hours as 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Use AIS for current custody information, Corrections for jail and bond questions, and non-emergency dispatch for law-enforcement routing that is not a custody lookup.

Visiting Someone at Floyd County Jail

Floyd County Jail allows one free 30-minute on-site visit per inmate per month, with on-site availability limited to Saturdays and Sundays. Video visitation is available daily through Securus from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. and must be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance. Paid scheduled visits are non-refundable, and non-attorney video visits are recorded and monitored by jail staff.

Visitors must provide required scheduling information, including the inmate's legal name or name number, visitor picture ID information, home address, telephone number, and email address. For an on-site visit, the visitor must present valid state-issued ID and arrive at least 15 minutes before the visit. Everyone and every vehicle on sheriff property is subject to search. The jail prohibits bags, phones, cameras, electronics, medication, food, drinks, and similar items in visitation areas.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Floyd County Jail

Regular non-legal mail for Floyd County Jail goes through the Securus Digital Mail Center. The mail is scanned and screened before it is forwarded to the inmate, and withheld mail triggers notice to the inmate with a reason. Legal and privileged mail from attorneys, courts, or government entities goes directly to the jail's New Albany address. The current inmate-information page is the better source for the legal-mail address because the sheriff resources page contained an older conflicting address.

Money can be deposited online through Tiger Accounting or Tiger Commissary, at the jail front-lobby kiosk, or by mailed money order or cashier's check. The lobby kiosk is available 24/7, accepts cash and cards, and applies a service fee. Mailed money orders or cashier's checks cannot exceed $100.00. Transaction-specific online service fees were not visible until the vendor transaction flow.

Booking and Intake at Floyd County Jail

A Floyd County arrest may begin with the Sheriff's Department, New Albany Police, Georgetown Police, Indiana State Police, or another agency. When jail booking is required, the person is transported to Floyd County Jail, where intake creates the jail record. The research supports a practical intake sequence that includes identity paperwork, search and property inventory, booking photo and fingerprints when required, medical or security screening, charge and bond entry, and housing assignment.

The sheriff FAQ gives two timing details that matter after a new arrest. Court assignments for new arrests are provided by the Floyd County Clerk each morning and posted on TV monitors in the courthouse, and an arrested person attends court on the following business day. Future court dates and filed charges should be checked through MyCase or the Floyd County Clerk, because arrest or booking charges can differ from the charges the prosecutor files later.

Bond and Property Rules

Bond handling depends on the time of day and the type of bond. The Floyd County Clerk's Office is the business-hours location for court cash bond and full cash bond. The jail accepts court cash bond payments only when the Clerk's Office is closed, including after business hours, weekends, and holidays. Jail bond payments require the full amount for the applicable bond type, exact cash, no coins, valid government-issued ID, and all required payee information. A $5.00 Special Death Benefit Bond Fee applies for each criminal case.

Property release has a local rule that is easy to miss. Personal property may be released seven days a week outside normal business hours, before 8:00 a.m. and after 4:00 p.m. No property is released during regular business hours. The person picking up property must present valid state-issued ID, and the inmate may refuse property release unless a court order says otherwise. If an inmate transfers to IDOC, IDOC does not accept inmate property, and the inmate can designate two people to pick it up after transfer.

About Floyd County Jail

The jail sits within the broader Floyd County Sheriff's Department operation. The county/IN.gov sheriff page describes the department as responsible for the county jail and prisoners, court officer duties, civil process, tax collection, prisoner and mental-patient transport, and duties tied to County Council and Commissioner meetings. The sheriff divisions page says the Corrections mission includes reducing recidivism through programs and life-skills courses and working with community resources.

Official and local-source material also points to GED and life-skills opportunities, mental-health and addiction education efforts, clergy volunteers, PREA reporting routes, legal mail, attorney visits, and Community Corrections connections. Those program references should not be read as a guarantee that every inmate qualifies for every service. Eligibility, scheduling, and availability can depend on classification, court status, jail staffing, and program approval.
