What This Site Covers
Raleigh County does not run a sheriff-operated county jail. Local bookings are usually routed to Southern Regional Jail in Beaver, a WVDCR regional jail serving Raleigh and six other counties. This site explains how that jail search differs from state-prison records, the BOP locator for Federal Correctional Institution Beckley, and immigration custody tools.
