This is a private reference site, not a Caldwell County office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release anyone, post bond, accept inmate deposits, schedule visits, or retrieve official booking records. Use the official office that controls the record or custody decision.
Where to Start for Caldwell County Records
Use the official channels below based on the type of record or custody question. Caldwell County's local jail, sheriff, court clerk, and Princeton Police offices are separate, even though several are clustered near downtown Princeton.
- County jail custody, booking, bond, release, inmate accounts, and jail records: Caldwell County Detention Center, 111 E. Market St., Princeton, KY 42445, (270) 365-6790.
- Non-emergency dispatch: Caldwell County dispatch line listed by the official jail site, (270) 365-3787.
- Sheriff arrest reports, warrants, court process, and sheriff-held records: Caldwell County Sheriff's Office, 100 E. Market St., Room 25, Princeton, KY 42445, (270) 365-2088.
- Filed court charges, court dates, case copies, and bond payment questions: Caldwell Circuit Court Clerk, Caldwell County Courthouse Annex, 105 W. Court Square, Princeton, KY 42445, 270-365-6884, Monday-Friday 8 a.m.-4 p.m.
- Princeton city police records or city arrest questions: Princeton Police Department, 206 N. Jefferson St., Princeton, KY 42445, 270-365-4657.
For online record paths, start with the page that matches the question:
- For a person believed to be in local jail custody, use jail inmate records and then call the detention center if the public view does not show the person.
- For a booking photo question, use jail roster mugshots and remember that Caldwell mugshot display was not verified in static official sources.
- For charges after booking, use court records after a jail arrest and the Kentucky Court of Justice docket or clerk's office.
- For the local facility profile, use the Caldwell County Detention Center page listed in the footer.
- For sentenced state offenders, search Kentucky DOC KOOL at kool.corrections.ky.gov.
- For custody notifications, use Kentucky VINELink at vinelink.vineapps.com/state/KY.
- For federal prisoners, use the BOP locator at bop.gov/inmateloc; for immigration detention, use ICE at ice.gov/detain/detainee-locator.
No official Caldwell County, Kentucky sheriff, jail, or Princeton Police mobile app was confirmed in the research. The official jail site operates as a web app, so use that site and the phone numbers above rather than apps for other Caldwell counties or other Princeton police departments.
