Lafayette County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a public office. We cannot verify custody, arrange a release, post bond, or obtain an official booking record. Contact the responsible government office below for those matters.
Official Lafayette County Contacts
Use the office that holds the record or status at issue. Lafayette County does not have a located current public online jail roster, so a current custody question should begin with the Sheriff or Detention Center. The county’s posted public-record procedure is the written route for a specific jail-docket or booking-record request. Confirm office availability before an in-person visit.
Sheriff and Detention Center
Lafayette County Sheriff’s Department and the Lafayette County Detention Center
711 Jackson Avenue East
Oxford, MS 38655
Phone: 662-234-6421
Fax: 662-232-8062
The research did not identify published Sheriff or detention-center office hours. Call the public number for current custody, release, transfer, and visit-availability questions. The county identifies Johnny McDonald as Jail Administrator, but the office page should control for current staff information.
County Administrator and Public Records

Chancery Courthouse, 300 North Lamar Boulevard
Oxford, MS 38655
Mail: PO Box 1240, Oxford, MS 38655
Hours: Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The county says requests may be submitted in person, by mail, or by email, with seven days to respond. Its posted charge is $0.25 per page plus the hourly rate of the person completing the request. Request a defined jail-docket or booking-record entry rather than a broad photo collection, and identify a booking date or other useful detail when known.
Court Record Follow-Up
Lafayette County Circuit Clerk
1 Courthouse Square, Suite 101
Oxford, MS 38655

For a later outcome, use the clerk or court rather than treating a booking entry as a result. The Delta criminal case index has a posted freshness caveat, so recent cases and name matches should be confirmed with the clerk.
Oxford and Small-Town Routes
Oxford Police lists 715 Molly Barr Road, Oxford, MS 38655, phone 662-232-2400, and says involved parties may retrieve reports at the station with identification. Non-involved requesters use the City Clerk public-record route. The Oxford City Clerk lists Leslie McCormick at 107 Courthouse Square, phone 662-232-2350.
For Abbeville, the official directory lists Police Commissioner Lynn Klepzig, 662-832-1770; Police Chief Timmy Pruitt, 662-832-1557; and Clerk Ginger Kesler, 662-816-5425. No online Abbeville request form or arrest log was located. Taylor has no located official police records portal; for a jail-held matter, use the county route and ask the village’s current clerk or governing office to identify a municipal custodian.
State, Federal, and Immigration Custody
For state-system custody, use the Mississippi Department of Corrections inmate search. MDOC public-record requests must be in writing and can be submitted through MDOC GovQA; its Records Department lists 601-933-2889 and PO Box 24388, Jackson, MS 39225. Federal custody is handled through the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator; immigration custody uses the ICE Online Detainee Locator, which lists 1-888-351-4024 for its reporting and information line.
