Powell County Detention Center Records

Powell Releases for Menifee

Legislative material specifically describes Powell placement for Menifee misdemeanants. Powell County Detention Center, not a fictional Menifee jail building, creates the booking and physical release or transfer entry for a person it holds. The Menifee clerk separately keeps the criminal case and court orders.

Bond, completion of a county sentence, dismissal, or another court order may produce community release. A movement to another contract jail, KDOC, or another agency continues custody. The 2024 legislative snapshot listed Powell among four Menifee contractors and reported a $33 daily rate on that date. The figure is historical context, not a current charge or placement guarantee.

The actual event should be described with the custodian's wording. A roster miss alone never supplies the date, authority, or destination.

Verify Powell Release Status

The Powell JailTracker shows current custody. It was not verified as a recent-release archive. Search it first, then expand the check if the person does not appear.

1. Check Powell's current JailTracker and compare identifiers.
2. Search Rowan, Montgomery, and Three Forks if the Menifee placement is uncertain.
3. Use Kentucky VINE to review custody status and event wording.
4. Read the Menifee docket through KYeCourts.
5. Request Powell's release or transfer entry.

Powell Records Request Route

Powell stands out because its official site provides a contact and information-request form. Use it to identify a specific existing booking record rather than asking the jail to research or write a new report.

Ask for the booking or commitment record and the entry showing release or transfer date and time, type or authority, destination if recorded, and booking photograph. Include the name, booking range, Menifee case number, and other known identifiers. The form's “FOIA” wording does not replace Kentucky Open Records Act standards.

Powell Contact and Custodian

Powell County Detention Center is at 755 Breckenridge Street, Stanton, Kentucky 40380. Its phone number is 606-663-6400. No verified public release desk hours, routine exit time, waiting location, or property-return policy was found. Call the jail before travel.

The housing jail is the first custodian for its booking entry and photograph. Menifee agencies may separately keep arrest or transport records. The Menifee Circuit Clerk keeps court orders and dispositions. Request each item from the office that created or maintains it.

Powell Open Records Boundaries

KRS 61.872 permits a Kentucky resident to request existing agency records with a signed application that identifies the requester, residency basis, and records. KRS 61.880 ordinarily requires a written agency decision within five days, excluding weekends and legal holidays.

Powell may redact exempt material and charge lawful copy or postage cost. Research found no Powell release-record fee or retention promise. Juvenile, sealed, expunged, investigative, and privacy rules may alter what can be disclosed.

Menifee's Distributed Release Trail

Powell is only one part of Menifee's four-facility custody map. Bed space, classification, cost, and legal authority can shift a person from one contractor to another. Search all four portals and contact Jailer Eddie Maze at 606-359-0861 when the housing location remains unknown.

Current roster

A view of who appears held now, not a log of who left.

Release entry

The facility's record that ends its custody episode.

Transfer

A change of custodian without community release.

Discharge

Completion supported by the controlling state or court record.

If Powell sends a person into state authority, check KOOL. If the person returns to the community, verify Powell's exit and any Menifee court condition. The Menifee County released inmate search provides the full route.

Interpret a Powell Exit

Powell's record describes its custody episode. Bond may return a person to the community while the Menifee case continues. Time served, dismissal, probation, shock probation, or another order may also authorize an exit. A transfer entry points to continued custody with another jail, KDOC, or agency.

The Menifee docket and Powell booking answer separate questions. The docket shows the order, bond, judgment, or disposition. Powell's entry shows when it processed release or transfer. VINE adds status but is not a certified Powell record. Confirm across sources before choosing a release label.

Ask for the booking identifier, commitment, effective exit time, type or authority, destination, and photograph. Not every field is guaranteed. The request form is a delivery channel, not a promise all material is public or retained.

Menifee Court Records for Powell

The Menifee Circuit Clerk keeps the court file even when Powell supplies the jail bed. Clerk Kelly Botts works at 12 Main Street, P.O. Box 172, Frenchburg, KY 40322. The phone is 606-768-2461, fax is 606-768-2462, and hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Request the order, judgment, disposition, or docket through the judicial procedure. A qualifying expungement can reach the jail and arresting agency. Public absence after that process does not prove the booking never happened.

Powell Reentry Contact Limits

KDOC Region 6 names county-jail reentry coordinator Courtlyn King at 606-362-6348 for Powell and Lee. That source does not extend the same coverage to Rowan or Montgomery. Reentry help is distinct from custody confirmation and does not replace Powell's release entry.

No verified Powell release hour, waiting location, property-return practice, or weekend rule was found. Call 606-663-6400 before travel and confirm Powell still holds the person and completed processing.

Audit Powell Release Evidence

When the public roster no longer shows a person, preserve the sequence of evidence. Record the facility searched, name spelling, and date of the check. Then search the other Menifee contract facilities. A move among contractors can close one entry while custody continues elsewhere. Kentucky VINE can bridge local systems, but its event must be read as displayed and confirmed with the office that created the record.

A useful request identifies the person, approximate booking range, Menifee case number when known, and the Powell booking. Ask for the existing booking or commitment record and the entry sufficient to show release or transfer. Include the effective date and time, authority or type, and destination if recorded. An agency need not create a new list, answer a question, or preserve material beyond its schedule.

KRS 61.880 ordinarily calls for a written decision within five days, excluding weekends and legal holidays. A denial should cite and explain the exception. Stored records may take longer when the agency gives a detailed reason and earliest available date. Copy and postage charges may apply. No facility-specific release-record price or retention promise was verified.

Privacy, investigation, juvenile, sealed, expunged, security, and other restrictions can affect production. Ask the office to redact exempt material and supply the remainder. The housing jail keeps its custody event, the Menifee clerk keeps court material, and KDOC keeps state sentence and supervision records.

Powell's online form is a direct contact route. Its wording does not alter Kentucky law or guarantee a photograph. Keep the request and compare the response with court and VINE results.

Cross-Check Powell Record Dates

Compare Powell's booking date, effective exit time, and the Menifee order date. Each may document a separate step. A bond or dismissal order can precede physical processing. A transfer can occur after a court event without placing the person in the community. VINE may update on a different schedule, and its notice is not Powell's certified entry.

Keep every date tied to its source. If records conflict, contact Powell and the clerk instead of choosing one result. A later KDOC appearance may explain a state transfer. Absence from KOOL does not resolve a short county stay. Search the other contractors because the person may have moved within Menifee's custody network.

For a photograph, ask Powell as the agency that created or maintains the booking image. Availability is subject to custody and exemptions. The research found no Powell released-photo archive, guaranteed fee, or retention period, so do not promise that a past image remains available.

Powell Release Language

Use the most precise description available. Say the current roster no longer displays the person when that is all the search shows. Say VINE reports not in custody with a date when that is the VINE result. Say Powell's release entry records an event only after Powell supplies it. Use “transferred” when another custodian received the person and “discharged” only when a controlling state or court record supports completion. This wording preserves the difference between leaving Powell and leaving correctional authority altogether.
