The Coshocton County Justice Center, constructed in 1973, was designed to accommodate up to 60 inmates. Functioning as a full-service facility, the Coshocton County Jail serves various law enforcement entities including the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office, West Lafayette Police Department, Probation and Parole for local courts, and other federal agencies.

Inmates housed in the Justice Center encompass a wide spectrum, ranging from individuals charged with minor traffic offenses to those facing capital punishment. This includes pre-trial detainees, sentenced offenders, individuals awaiting transfer to state penal facilities, fugitives from other jurisdictions, and inmates undergoing probation or parole revocation proceedings.

The jail offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Alternatively, setting up an account through a third-party phone company may entail high fees per minute of usage.

Books and magazines ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate.

The operations of the Coshocton County Jail are overseen by one Jail Administrator, assisted by one Jail Sergeant and one Jail Corporal. The jail is staffed by a total of eight full-time Corrections Officers, who work across four different shifts. At any given time, there are two full-time Corrections Officers on duty to ensure the safety and security of the facility and its occupants.

Visitation Information

With the implementation of the video visitation system here, the facility no longer adheres to a fixed visitation schedule, granting families greater flexibility in scheduling visits. This system allows family and friends to arrange visitation at times that are most convenient for them through the vendor's website, eliminating the need for correctional staff to be involved in the scheduling process.

Individuals wishing to visit inmates must set up an account through IC Solutions. All visitation activities, including scheduling and communication, are managed through the IC Solutions website or by calling 888-506-8407 from 7:00 AM until 11:40 PM. These visits can be scheduled up to 24 hours in advance, ensuring inmates are notified and prepared for their visit. Each off-site visit is conducted for $5.00 for a 20-minute session. Inmates are permitted to have an unlimited number of off-site visits per week, providing ample opportunity for maintaining connections with family and friends.

On-Site Visitation - For those preferring to visit in person, on-site visitation can be conducted using two kiosk units located in the facility's lobby. Inmates are allowed two on-site visits per week at no cost. The hours of operation for on-site visits are as follows:

  • Saturday and Sunday: 7:00 AM to 11:40 PM
  • Monday through Friday: 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 11:40 PM

This system enhances the accessibility of visitation while ensuring that inmates remain connected with their loved ones, contributing to their well-being and rehabilitation. The use of video technology provides a streamlined, user-friendly approach to visitation, accommodating the needs of both the inmates and their visitors.
