Page County Sheriff Inmate Roster

The Page County Sheriff's Office is the lead agency for jail records in the county. Sheriff Chadwick W. "Chad" Cubbage runs the office from 108 S. Court Street in Luray. The phone is 540-743-6571. Hours run Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Page County Jail sits on the same campus. Most short-term Page County released inmates were once held here. The roster is not posted on a slick web tool, so a phone call is often the fastest way to check who is in or out.

Booking sheets list the full name, the booking date, the charges, the bond, and the next court date. Mugshots are kept on file. Mail sent to inmates must use this format: Inmate name and ID, Page County Jail, Luray, VA 22835. Do not send cash. Use a money order to add funds. The records desk also takes walk-in requests for jail logs and arrest reports.

For a deeper roster check, families also use third-party guides. The lead-in image below comes from the Page County Jail VA inmate guide, which lays out the steps for a public roster check by phone.

The page above is a good first stop when you do not know the booking number. It walks you through phone, mail, and online options for a Page County released inmate.

Page Circuit Court Released Inmates Records

Felony case files for Page County released inmates live with the Clerk of Circuit Court in Luray. The Circuit Court is part of Virginia's 26th Judicial Circuit. The state-run case lookup is the best place to start when you only have a name. Use the Virginia Circuit Court case information system and pick Page County from the list. You can search by name, case number, or hearing date. Criminal cases use the prefix CR. The data is real time and free.

For misdemeanor or traffic charges that did not get bumped up to Circuit, use the General District Court case search. Many short jail terms end in General District Court and never make it to the state offender locator. Court files often hold the sentence length, the conviction date, and any probation terms. That info is the key to picking a release date for a Page County released inmate.

The Clerk's Office handles criminal records, civil claims, deeds, wills, and marriage records. In-person and mail requests are both accepted.

State Prison Cases for Page County Released Inmates

If a person from Page County was sent to state prison, the case moves to the Virginia Department of Corrections. The VADOC offender locator covers about 24,000 state inmates in 26 facilities. Type the first letter of the first name and the full last name, or use the seven-digit Offender ID. The tool gives the facility, the projected release date, and the offender status. It is free and updates each day. VADOC does not list jail or juvenile cases, so a Page County jail check is still needed for short terms.

The rules for state time live in Virginia Code Title 53.1. Section 53.1-24 makes the Director keep a register of every prisoner with the term, the offense, and the date received. Good conduct credit can cut time too.
