The Mount Vernon Jail is a city jail located at 526 Main St in Mount Vernon, IN. It serves as the holding facility for the Mount Vernon Police Department or agencies within the judicial district of Posey County. City jails are locally operated short-term facilities that hold inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both, and inmates sentenced to a term of less than one year, typically misdemeanants or repeat nuisance criminals. Most inmates not condemned to penalty or punishment could qualify for bail. If you would like information regarding a release, please call 812-838-8705.

Inmates scheduled for longer-term sentences will get transferred to a Federal or State Prisons run by either the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) or Indiana Department of Corrections. There is no time frame given for the transfer, the factors include bed space and logistic timing for the sheriff or marshals to transport the inmate securely.
