Troup County Jail Overview
Troup County Jail is operated by the Troup County Sheriff's Office. The jail and sheriff's office are listed at 130 Sam Walker Drive in LaGrange, with official sources using both GA 30240 and GA 30241 as the ZIP code. Sheriff James Woodruff is the elected sheriff identified on the county page, and the Sheriff's Office describes its law-enforcement work as covering unincorporated Troup County and often the city limits of LaGrange, Hogansville, and West Point.
The sheriff's jail information explains that the facility houses people awaiting State Court or Superior Court and also houses people for all three municipalities in Troup County. That makes Troup County Jail the central local jail search point after arrests by sheriff's deputies, LaGrange Police Department, Hogansville Police Department, West Point Police Department, Georgia State Patrol, probation or parole entities, and other agencies that appear in the county's Tyler search filters.
The county's jail page reports 24-hour jail operation, 58 jail officers, and sergeant-supervised shifts. It also names meal services, medical, dental, and commissary as areas inside the jail that benefit inmates. An official rated bed capacity for the main jail was not located in the research file, so this page does not assign a capacity number to the Sam Walker Drive building.
The official county sheriff page is the source for the sheriff office contact block shown below.
The screenshot is included because custody calls, public counter questions, and records routing often begin with the sheriff's office rather than the online roster alone.
Troup County Jail Capacity and Population
Official Troup County sources publish several dated jail population figures, but they do not publish a verified rated capacity for the main jail. The sheriff's jail page, inspected in 2026, says more than 3,000 people are processed through the Jail Division each year and lists an average daily population of 380. A county State of the County presentation reported 3,323 bookings and a 540 average daily inmate population for 2021. A 2023 jail health-care procurement addendum stated an average daily population of 600 in that procurement context.
Those figures should not be merged into a single "current population." They came from different dates and documents. The 2023 food-service RFP also covered both the jail and the jail annex/work-release operation, so its 500 to 600 range is not a main-jail-only number.
| Measure | Figure | Source Context |
|---|---|---|
| People processed yearly | More than 3,000 | Sheriff Jail Division page, inspected 2026 |
| Average daily population | 380 | Sheriff Jail Division page, undated page inspected 2026 |
| 2021 bookings | 3,323 | County State of the County presentation |
| 2021 average daily inmate population | 540 | County State of the County presentation |
| Health-care procurement ADP | 600 | 2023 county jail health-care addendum |
How to Look Up an Inmate at Troup County Jail
The current public lookup path is the sheriff-linked Troup County Corrections Records Search portal. Research found that the old WebJail hostname is not the reliable current path, so the Tyler portal should be used first. The public configuration hides mugshots and date of birth while allowing charge information, which means the roster is useful for custody, charge, bond, arrest, and release-status review but is not a mugshot gallery. No current official Troup County Sheriff inmate lookup app was verified, so use the web portal, phone, and open-records fallback.
The official search portal is the right first stop for people in county custody at Troup County Jail. It is not the correct search for sentenced state prisoners in Georgia Department of Corrections custody, federal prisoners, or immigration detainees.
The screenshot below comes from the Corrections Records Search portal captured for this project.
The portal image shows the county search interface rather than a live inmate profile, which keeps the page focused on lookup process and source routing.
- Open the Troup County Corrections Records Search portal.
- Search by last name, full name, or a known ID number.
- Use arrest-date or arresting-agency filters if a common name returns too many records.
- Open the result and review available booking, arrest, charge, bond, physical-description, SO number, and release-status fields.
- If the person is not found, call the jail or sheriff's office, check whether the person moved to GDC custody, or submit a targeted open-records request.
Troup County Jail Address and Contact
Use the jail or sheriff's office for custody confirmation, recent booking questions, holds, release status, and basic facility routing. Use Troup County's open-records process for records not visible online, such as a booking log, arrest report, jail record, bond information, or incident report. Troup County says open-records requests are handled through JustFOIA, with a response or notice within three business days and possible costs after the first 15 minutes of search or retrieval work.

Visiting Someone at Troup County Jail
Troup County Jail visitation is conducted by live video through Securus Technologies. The sheriff's jail page says every visitor must be preapproved for each inmate, same-day and walk-in visits are not accepted, and appointments are not accepted by telephone. Visits must be arranged in person or through SecurusTech.net. Confirm the current visitor approval status before traveling to the Sam Walker Drive facility.
| Visit Type | Hours / Timing | Type |
|---|---|---|
| On-site video visit | Monday-Friday by pre-made appointment; Visitation Center listed as 9:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. | Free 20-minute video visit |
| Remote video visit | Seven days a week up until 9:40 p.m. | Securus remote video, price listed as starting at $7.99 |
| Attorney visit | Professional rules not published in the jail page | Confirm with jail staff |
The county's 2021 State of the County presentation reported 3,023 on-site inmate visitations, 4,857 remote inmate visitations, 303 attorney visits, and 8,183 total visitations. Those figures show that both on-site and remote visitation were active channels, but they do not replace the current scheduling rules.
Mail, Phone, and Money at Troup County Jail
The sheriff's jail page confirms that commissary exists inside Troup County Jail, and a county detention-officer posting referenced commissary duties, inmate accounts, and cash handling. The research did not locate an official public deposit vendor, kiosk address, online deposit URL, commissary fee table, weekly order limit, jail mail format, or phone pricing. Do not assume that a vendor used in another Georgia jail applies here.
| Service | Provider / Detail |
|---|---|
| Mail Address | No official public mail format was located; confirm the format with the jail before sending anything. |
| Phone / Video | Securus is verified for video visitation. Official phone pricing was not located. |
| Money Deposit | Commissary is confirmed, but no official public deposit vendor or fee schedule was located. |
Bond is separate from commissary, phone, or video funds. A bond amount visible in the inmate search does not prove that the person is eligible for immediate release, that all holds are cleared, or that a specific payment method is accepted. Confirm bond questions directly with jail staff or the court.
Booking and Intake at Troup County Jail
After a Troup County arrest, the jail is the local booking and housing point for people awaiting State Court or Superior Court and for people arrested by the county's municipalities. Booking records can include arresting agency, arrest date, charges, bond information, physical description, name, SO number, and release-status data. Some fields can be blank or delayed, and the public portal hides mugshots and dates of birth.
A person may leave the jail search after release, transfer, sentencing, or movement into another custody system. If a Troup County defendant is sentenced to state custody, the Georgia Department of Corrections locator becomes the correct system. Federal and immigration custody use separate federal tools, and VINELink can be used as a notification channel where Georgia coverage is available.
About Troup County Jail
The jail sits within the county public-safety structure on Sam Walker Drive in LaGrange. The sheriff's materials describe the jail's work as safe and healthy housing while court cases are pending. County research also shows that the broader local custody system includes a jail annex and work-release/work-detail operation at Hamilton Road, while Charles D. Hudson Transitional Center is a separate Georgia Department of Corrections facility.
Recent official operational material is strongest around health care and food service. A 2023 inmate health-care addendum named WECARE Corrections TLC as the then-current provider and noted a procurement interest in electronic medical record pricing and mental-health services. A 2023 food-service RFP covered both the jail and the jail annex/work-release/work-detail operation.
Note: Confirm custody status, visitation approval, bond conditions, and mail or deposit instructions with the jail before traveling or sending funds.
