Get in Touch About Weakley Records

Start With the Sheriff

For a current local-custody question or a sheriff-held booking record, begin with the Weakley County Sheriff's Department. The county page identifies Sheriff Terry McDade and gives the ordinary office schedule below. The same department number is described on that page as an emergency contact available at all hours, so the listed weekday office hours do not limit emergency service.

A separate detention or booking number, (731) 364-2206, is reported by private directories. The official county contact block does not list it, so verify the number with the sheriff before relying on it. Do not assume that it handles public-record requests or that a directory listing proves a person is currently in custody.

Choose the Office by Record Type

Different offices hold different records. The most useful route depends on whether the question concerns current local detention, an old booking, a case outcome, a state sentence, or federal custody.

• For a local booking record or an inquiry about current county detention, use the sheriff contact above. The home page explains the documented roster limitation and records-request fallback.
• For a court case, docket, or disposition after booking, use the Weakley court case search or the Circuit Court and General Sessions clerk information.
• For a sentenced or supervised state offender, use the TDOC Felony Offender Information Lookup. It is not the local jail roster.
• For a federal detainee or prisoner, consult the appropriate federal locator. For an immigration-detention question, use the official ICE locator rather than a county booking directory.
• For an official city incident report, contact the relevant city police department. An incident report is distinct from the county's booking record.

Local news reports and private jail directories can be historical leads, but they cannot replace an answer from the proper records custodian. Charges at booking are accusations and can change as a court case proceeds.
