No Kent County Jail Roster Located
No official Kent County online jail roster or inmate-name search was located on the county Detention Center page or Sheriff's Office pages reviewed. That means Kent County should not be presented as having a searchable county inmate portal with mugshots, pod locations, bond amounts, charges, or public booking profiles. The official county detention source directs users to the automated telephone system. Current custody and family-service questions should begin with the Kent County Detention Center phone line.
The Kent County Detention Center is listed at 104 Vickers Drive-Unit A, Chestertown, Maryland 21620, phone 410-778-6025, with administrative hours Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The researched county page names Warden Hilary Siakor-Sirleaf and lists detention command staff for operations, programs, home detention, pre-trial, transportation, audits, and office management. The same county source gives specific mail, money, and phone rules, but it does not publish a full public inmate roster or visitation calendar in the captured material.
The manifest image from the Kent County Detention Center page is the primary local source for inmate contact, mail, money, and phone rules.
That county page is the researched starting point when a Kent County inmate search involves local jail custody rather than state prison custody.
Kent County Detention Center Contact
The Detention Center is the local custody contact for people awaiting trial, convicted inmates housed locally, family service questions, mail rules, and facility procedures. It is separate from the Sheriff's Office public-information address, even though both are on Vickers Drive in different units. For arrest-side records, the Sheriff's Office records request process may apply. For filed court charges, court records are read through Case Search and the District or Circuit Court clerk.

A May 2026 county news release announced Siakor-Sirleaf as Warden and described more than 30 years of correctional leadership experience in Maryland and Liberia. That is useful for identifying current facility leadership, but custody status should still be confirmed by the facility or official state systems.
The manifest image from the Kent County warden announcement records the local leadership update.
The announcement supplements the facility page; it does not create an online inmate search tool.
Search Kent County Inmate Custody
Because Kent County did not publish a located online jail roster, the search process should use the most likely custodian first. Local detainees and family-service issues go to the Detention Center. State prison or covered DPSCS custody goes to the state locator. Custody and criminal case notifications go to Maryland VINE. Police or booking-related records not published online may require a Sheriff's Office records request. Court charges after arrest should be checked in Maryland court records.
- Call Kent County Detention Center at 410-778-6025 and follow the automated prompts for current local custody and facility instructions.
- Use the DPSCS Incarcerated Individual Locator when the person may be committed to Maryland state correctional custody.
- Use Maryland VINE for free confidential custody status and criminal case notification services.
- Request police or booking-related records through the Kent County Sheriff's Office when a public online record is not available.
- Check related charges in Maryland Case Search or with the District Court or Circuit Court clerk.
There is no official Kent County Sheriff's Office mobile app documented in the researched official agency site, footer, or related pages. Do not rely on an app-only Kent inmate lookup unless a future official sheriff or county source confirms it. Likewise, do not assume a person is not in custody just because a state locator or public court summary does not show them.
Note: County detention, state prison custody, court charges, and sheriff reports are separate records with separate custodians.
Kent County Inmate State Tools
The DPSCS Incarcerated Individual Locator is the main state custody search named in the research. It covers people committed to the Commissioner of Correction and housed at Division of Correction facilities, Patuxent Institution, and some short-sentenced people in pretrial or detention facilities. DPSCS warns by scope that it does not list everyone in DPSCS custody and does not list people no longer in custody. It is not a substitute for the Kent County Detention Center phone line when the question is current county jail custody.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| First Name | Text | Optional but useful | Search page shows First Name under "Search For." |
| Last Name | Text | Optional but useful | Search page shows Last Name; use accurate spelling. |
| Search / submit | Button | Not applicable | Returns covered DPSCS custody-location records within the state's stated scope. |
The manifest image from the DPSCS Incarcerated Individual Locator shows the state search channel for covered correctional custody.
The state locator is most useful when the person has moved beyond a local Kent County detention question.
The Maryland VINE portal provides free, secure, confidential custody status and criminal case information notifications. VINE is useful when a victim, family member, or concerned person needs updates, but exact field labels can vary dynamically. Registration fields are used for notification contact methods, while name or identifier searches support custody and case lookup where available.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| State | Selected state portal | Yes | Use the Maryland portal. |
| Name / ID search | Text | Unspecified | VINE commonly supports name or offender/case identifiers; labels may vary. |
| Registration/contact method | Form fields | Optional for notifications | Used for custody and case notification registration. |
The manifest image from Maryland VINE supports the notification channel for Kent County custody and case updates.
VINE is a notification and custody-information tool, not the official Kent County jail roster that was not located.
Kent County Inmate Record Fields
No official Kent County online jail profile could be inspected because no public roster was located. For that reason, public copy should not claim that Kent County publishes mugshots, bond amounts, pod or housing locations, full charge lists, court dates, booking numbers, or projected releases online. The confirmed public fields and channels are narrower: detention phone confirmation for county custody, DPSCS custody location for covered state inmates, and VINE custody or criminal case notification tools.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Custody location | DPSCS may show location for covered state custody, while the Detention Center phone line handles local custody questions. |
| Name | Used in DPSCS, VINE, phone, and records-request channels to identify the person. |
| Case or custody notification | VINE provides free confidential notifications tied to custody status and criminal case information. |
| Booking or police details | May require a Sheriff's Office records request when not published online. |
| Court charges | Maryland Case Search or the court clerk may show public filed charges, subject to remote-display limits. |
The Maryland Sex Offender Registry is another DPSCS public tool, but it is not an inmate roster and should not be confused with jail custody. Registry records serve a separate public-notice purpose and do not prove current Kent County detention status.
The manifest image from the Maryland Sex Offender Registry marks that separate DPSCS record category.
Keeping registry, prison, jail, and court records separate prevents a custody search from turning into an unsupported background claim.
Kent County Inmate Mail Rules
Kent County Detention Center publishes specific mail restrictions. The mail block in the county source gives a detention-center mailing format and warns that all non-legal correspondence is opened and inspected for contraband before delivery. Legal mail is opened by the inmate in the presence of an officer. The research notes one important mailing caution: the printed mail block shows Chestertown, MD 21260, while the facility street address elsewhere is Chestertown, MD 21620. Confirm the ZIP before mailing.
| Mail Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| Sender identity | All mail must have the full name and address of the sender. |
| Address format | Kent County Detention Center, Attention: Inmate Name, 104 Vickers Drive-Unit A, Chestertown, MD 21260 as printed on the county page; confirm ZIP before mailing. |
| Oversized or perfumed items | No oversized postcards, greeting cards, or perfumed letters accepted. |
| Photos | Polaroids and photographs larger than 4x6 are not accepted. |
| Photo count | An inmate may have a maximum of four photos per envelope. |
| Inspection | Non-legal mail is opened and inspected; legal mail is opened by the inmate in an officer's presence. |
Kent County Inmate Money and Phones
The official detention page gives several ways to place money for an inmate and names PAYTEL as the inmate telephone system. Deposit rules require the inmate name and number for online and phone deposits. Money orders sent by U.S. Mail must be filled in completely and written to the inmate. The lobby kiosk accepts cash or credit card. The research did not locate a county-published deposit limit or fee schedule, so those details should be confirmed with Access Corrections or the facility before payment.
| Deposit Method | Detail |
|---|---|
| U.S. Mail | Money order only; money orders must be filled in completely and written to the inmate. |
| Online | Use accesscorrections.com; inmate name and number required. |
| Phone | Access Corrections 866-345-1884; inmate name and number required. |
| In person | Lobby kiosk accepts cash or credit card. |
| Phone Service | Detail |
|---|---|
| Inmate telephone system | PAYTEL |
| Prepay telephone number | 1-800-729-8355 |
These money and phone rules are facility services, not proof of current custody. Confirm the person's status first through the Detention Center, DPSCS if state custody is possible, or VINE for notifications. If the person was recently arrested, court charges may lag behind custody, and custody may change before the court summary updates.
Kent County Inmate Visitation
The official Kent County Detention Center page reviewed for research did not publish a full visitation schedule. No official source located visit days, video provider, visit length, dress code, visitor approval window, or holiday schedule. The correct researched instruction is to call 410-778-6025 and follow automated prompts for current visitation, lockdown, attorney-visit, and family-service instructions. A visitation table should therefore show the lack of located schedule detail rather than invent times.
| Visit Type | Official Schedule Located? | Research Note |
|---|---|---|
| Family/social in-person visits | No | Call Kent County Detention Center 410-778-6025 for current rules and schedule. |
| Attorney/professional visits | No detailed schedule located | Legal mail rules are published; professional visit rules should be confirmed by counsel or the facility. |
| Video visits | No official Kent source located | Do not list GTL, Securus, or HomeWAV unless confirmed by county. |
| Holiday/emergency changes | No official schedule located | Call before travel; facility rules may change during emergencies or lockdowns. |
The DPSCS facility locator is useful when the person is in a Maryland state correctional facility rather than the Kent County Detention Center.
Facility location affects visit rules, mail rules, phone vendors, and the correct custodian for custody questions.
Kent County Booking Records
Booking or police-related records not published online can be requested through the Sheriff's Office public-information channel by writing to or visiting 104 Vickers Drive, Unit B, Chestertown. The Sheriff's Office says proof of identity may be required, entitlement to the record may need review, and some records may cost money. This is different from asking the Detention Center whether someone is currently in custody and different from asking the court for filed charges or certified court copies.
For a typical Kent County arrest, the researched path may include arrest by sheriff, municipal, state, or other law enforcement; transport and booking at the Detention Center if held locally; commissioner or judicial review for release or bond conditions; District Court or Circuit Court case creation depending on the charge; and later release, transfer, sentencing, or continued custody. Home detention, pre-trial, and transportation functions are identified within detention command staff, but a public roster was not located.
Important: Do not treat a missing online jail result as proof that a person was never arrested or is not in custody.
