Jail and Sheriff Contacts
Knott County arrests may involve a city police department, the sheriff, or Kentucky State Police. People lodged in the regional jail are taken to Kentucky River Regional Jail in Hazard. Use the booking line for intake questions and the inmate-information line for current custody. A formal jail record or booking-photo request belongs with KRRJ's named records custodian.
