Inmate Search in West Virginia - The Ultimate Guide 2023

About West Virginia State

West Virginia was born at the start of the American Civil War. Many people in Virginia wanted to join the confederacy, but others did not. They tried to resolve this but couldn’t. Therefore, it was decided that West Virginia would break off and remain part of the union while the remaining part of the state would become part of the Confederacy. 

Mountains and rolling hills make up most of the geography of West Virginia. Logging and coal mining have been the major industries for decades. Nowadays, though, tourism is growing with rock climbing and hunting being particularly popular. The capital city has gone back and forth between Wheeling and Charleston multiple times and at the moment is Charleston.

West Virginia DOC Inmate Search

Step 1: To get started visit the West Virginia inmate search page. Read the disclaimer carefully. They make no claims or warranties that the information will be correct, current, or accurate. Keep that in mind when you eventually get your results.

Step 2: Now you have to search by name. There is no ability to search by an inmate ID number. Since this is how most people search anyway this makes sense.

Step 3: After you type in the name, you will get a list that matches your search. This list will include mugshots. That way you can be sure you have found the correct inmate and can get the information on them that you need.

Step 4: Click on the inmate you want information about. You will get your results which will include the name and location of the facility where they have been incarcerated.

You also have the chance to search the West Virginia sex offender registry. The state makes it very clear you cannot harass anyone on the list and makes you agree to that before you can search.

Then you can search by name or geographic location.

It will then provide you with a list of sex offenders that match your search. If you search by name, it will show all relevant names organized by city.

If you’d like, you can also lookup West Virginia escapees and absconders. These are people who either broke out of jail or prison or did not show up in court when served with a bench warrant. When possible your results will include a mugshot. That is not always possible however so many of the results do not have any picture.
