How to find an inmate
Meigs County has no county jail, so people arrested in the county may be held at the Middleport Jail or at another county's jail under contract. Call the Meigs County Sheriff's Office in Pomeroy with the person's full name and date of birth to find out where they are held. For people sentenced to state prison, use the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction (ODRC) offender search.
Visitation
Visitation rules depend on the facility where the person is held. Ask the Meigs County Sheriff's Office which facility holds the inmate, then contact that facility to confirm its visitation procedures.
Bail and bond
Bond is set by the court handling the case, such as Meigs County Court or Meigs County Common Pleas Court. Call the sheriff's office or the court clerk to confirm the bond amount, payment methods, and where to post it.
Mail and money
Mail and money must go to the facility actually holding the inmate, not the sheriff's office. Confirm the inmate's location with the Meigs County Sheriff's Office, then ask that facility for its mail rules and approved deposit methods.
