This privately run reference is not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. The office that created or holds the record must handle those requests.


Choose the Record Holder

Pendleton County has no separately operated adult county jail in the official directories reviewed. The Sheriff holds local arrest and transport records. Potomac Highlands Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, operated by WVDCR, holds regional-jail booking and movement records.

The right next step depends on whether the question concerns release, supervision, a court order, or a different custody system.

  • For a released person or release record, the home page provides the complete verification and request path.
  • For community supervision, use the official contacts explained under Parole / Probation.
  • For the recent-release window, start with Released Last 24 Hours and its records fallback.
  • For timing or alerts, compare the Inmate Release Date route with the VINELink Release Check.
  • For PHRJCF custody, use the facility page listed in the footer and contact the jail directly. For the order behind the movement, use the Pendleton County Judiciary contacts.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the WVDCR prison offender search and DCR Records.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator rather than a West Virginia jail search.
