How to find an inmate
Bath County has no county jail, so people arrested there are held under contract at another county's jail, often the Montgomery County Regional Jail in Mount Sterling. Call that facility or the Bath County Sheriff's Office in Owingsville and give the person's full name and date of birth. For people sentenced to state prison, use the Kentucky Department of Corrections KOOL (Kentucky Online Offender Lookup).
Visitation
Visitation follows the rules of the jail where the person is actually housed, not Bath County. After you confirm the location, call that facility to ask about scheduling, approved visitor requirements, ID rules, and whether visits are in person or by video.
Bail and bond
In Kentucky, bail is set by a judge, and pretrial release is screened by Kentucky Pretrial Services. Commercial bail bondsmen are not permitted in Kentucky, so bail is paid directly to the jail holding the person or to the Bath County Circuit Court Clerk. Confirm the bail amount and accepted payment forms with the holding facility or the clerk.
Mail and money
Mail and deposits must go to the facility where the person is held, addressed with the inmate's full name and any booking number. Call that jail to confirm the mailing address, mail restrictions, and current methods for adding money to an inmate account.
