Concordia Parish Jail Roster
The official online roster channel for Concordia Parish inmate records is the Concordia Parish LA VINE roster. The Louisiana Commission on Law Enforcement identifies the Concordia roster as part of the LA VINE Rosters system. LCLE describes those rosters as live jail-management feeds that list incarcerated offenders and refresh on a 30-minute cycle. The source description says roster entries include the offender, date of birth, gender, and race, and that users can move from an entry into VINE registration for custody notices.
The roster is the right first stop for current parish jail custody. It is not the only stop. Concordia Parish has a multi-site detention system, so a person may be connected to the courthouse jail at 4001 Carter Street in Vidalia, Concordia Parish Correctional Facility on Highway 15 in Ferriday, Concordia Parish Correctional Facility II on Highway 84 in Vidalia, or the female transitional work program. River Correctional Center in Ferriday is different because research identifies it as an ICE detention facility, not an ordinary parish roster population.
Use careful custody language. A current jail roster entry is a custody record, not proof of conviction. Booking charges can change after the District Attorney or court acts. A person serving Louisiana DPS&C time in a local facility may still be searched through VINE or the DPS&C locator path. A federal inmate belongs in the BOP locator, and an immigration detainee belongs in the ICE detainee locator. Note: if an arrest just happened, the phone route may be faster than waiting for the roster feed.
The sheriff's corrections page is a useful companion source for facility names, wardens, addresses, and phone numbers. The Concordia Parish Sheriff's Office corrections page lists the courthouse jail, Concordia Parish Correctional Facility, and Concordia Parish Correctional Facility II. The page helps explain why a family member may hear "Concordia jail" while the actual location is a Vidalia jail office, a Ferriday correctional facility, or a women's facility in Vidalia.
The sheriff's corrections page is shown below because it documents the local facility network behind Concordia Parish inmate records.
That facility split matters when a roster search returns no result, because the next step may be a jail call, a DPS&C/VINE search, or an ICE search rather than a repeated name search.
Use Concordia Parish Inmate Search
A practical Concordia Parish inmate search starts with the live roster and then works through the fallback channels documented by the research. The official roster is free, but the static capture did not expose every form field. That means the safer approach is to treat it as a current custody list and verify any missing detail with the jail. Use exact spelling when possible. If the spelling is uncertain, try fewer name parts and compare date of birth or other profile data if displayed.
- Open the Concordia Parish LA VINE roster and search the current list for the person's name.
- Compare any displayed date of birth, gender, race, custody status, or VINE registration option before assuming the match is correct.
- If the person was just arrested, call the courthouse jail at (318) 336-5231 or the correctional facility at (318) 757-1865.
- If the person may be serving a state sentence, use Louisiana VINE or the DPS&C phone locator at 225-383-4580 with the DPS&C number or name and date of birth.
- If the person may be in federal or immigration custody, search BOP or ICE instead of relying on the parish roster.
Phone confirmation is important in Concordia Parish because the local system is not one building. The courthouse jail is the primary public jail contact, while the Ferriday correctional facility and the women's facility hold different mixes of local, DOC, and program populations. Jail staff can also tell a caller whether a recent booking has not yet reached the public feed, whether a person was transferred, or whether the question belongs with another agency.
Concordia Parish Roster Fields
The roster search interface itself could not be fully extracted from the static research pass, so unsupported fields should not be added to Concordia Parish inmate records. LCLE's roster description is the reliable source. It says LA VINE Rosters list offenders in custody with date of birth, gender, and race, and it describes a live feed drawn from jail-management data. A search result may contain more if the live application exposes it, but charges, bond amounts, housing units, release dates, and mugshots were not verified in the Concordia capture.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roster search fields | JavaScript roster interface | Unspecified | The static fetch did not expose the full Concordia form, so use the live roster and jail phone fallback. |
| Offender listing | Roster result | Not applicable | LCLE says LA VINE Rosters list incarcerated offenders. |
| Date of birth | Profile or result field | Not applicable | LCLE identifies DOB as a displayed roster data point. |
| Gender and race | Profile or result field | Not applicable | LCLE identifies gender and race as displayed roster data points. |
| VINE registration | Notification action | Optional | LCLE says users can register against an offender from the roster path. |
Concordia Parish Inmate Profiles
A Concordia Parish inmate profile should be read as a current public custody summary. It can help confirm that a person is in custody and may provide basic identity data. It should not be treated as a complete court file or a full criminal-history report. The research did not verify that Concordia roster profiles display bond, charge statutes, housing unit, photo, or release data. When a field is absent, call the jail, contact the court for case filings, or make a public-records request under Louisiana law.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name or offender listing | The current incarcerated offender in the Concordia Parish roster. |
| Date of birth | A key identifier for separating people with similar names. |
| Gender | A roster demographic field identified by LCLE. |
| Race | A roster demographic field identified by LCLE. |
| VINE registration | A way to request release or transfer status notices when available. |
| Mugshot | Not verified for Concordia, and Louisiana booking-photo law may restrict release. |
| Charges, bond, housing | Not verified in the static capture; call the jail or use court records for missing detail. |
Louisiana public-records law still matters when a roster is thin. Louisiana R.S. 44:1 broadly defines public records, and R.S. 44:32 requires custodians to permit inspection and provide copies subject to lawful exceptions and fees. Concordia research did not locate a sheriff-specific online records form, so a requester should call (318) 336-5231 or write to the sheriff's records custodian at 4001 Carter Street, Room 7, Vidalia, LA 71373, before sending a request.
County State Federal Custody
Concordia Parish inmate records split by custody system. The parish roster is for current parish jail custody. Louisiana VINE and DPS&C handle state prison and state-sentenced people who may be housed in local facilities or transitional work programs. The Federal Bureau of Prisons locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to the present. ICE's Online Detainee Locator System is the correct route for immigration detention, including River Correctional Center when a person is housed there as an ICE detainee.
| Custody Type | Where to Look | Concordia Parish Note |
|---|---|---|
| Pretrial parish custody | Concordia LA VINE roster and jail phone line | Use for recent local arrests and current jail custody. |
| State-sentenced custody | Louisiana VINE or DPS&C locator phone line | DPS&C lists Concordia local jail and program locations. |
| Federal custody | BOP inmate locator | BOP records are federal-only and may include release-date recalculations. |
| Immigration detention | ICE detainee locator | River Correctional Center is the local ICE-related facility in the research. |
The Louisiana VINE search portal is a key statewide path for Concordia Parish inmate records when the person may have moved into state custody.
Use VINE as a custody-status and notification tool, then confirm detailed booking, court, or bond questions with the agency that holds the record.
Concordia Parish Jail Facilities
Facility names are more than directory entries in Concordia Parish. They affect search strategy. The courthouse jail is tied to the main jail number and property-bond workflow. Concordia Parish Correctional Facility in Ferriday is a larger local correctional facility with documented DOC local-jail population and transitional work program counts in the 2021 DPS&C report. Concordia Parish Correctional Facility II and the female transitional work program are tied to the Highway 84 address and female DOC/TWP population. River Correctional Center is routed through ICE channels for immigration custody.

Concordia Parish Booking Records
Booking begins after arrest by a sheriff's deputy, city officer, state trooper, or another agency. The person is taken to the appropriate Concordia Parish intake location. Identity, warrant, hold, and charge information are entered into jail systems. Louisiana Minimum Jail Standards add important safeguards. A person who is unconscious, seriously injured, or violently disturbed should not be received for booking without written authorization from a licensed physician. New arrivals are also kept separate from the general population while intake steps are completed.
Property is inventoried during admission, and state standards call for a written itemized receipt. Concordia adds a local rule: the sheriff's jail page says CPSO does not accept property for inmates. Booking photos and fingerprints may be created for identification, but the release of booking photographs is controlled by Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure art. 234. Intake can also include classification, which is the risk and needs review that guides housing and custody level. Standards describe a maximum 48-hour intake holding period before classification and transfer to suitable housing.
- Booking
- The administrative intake record made after arrest.
- Classification
- The jail's housing and custody-level decision after intake.
- Detainer
- A hold or request from another agency that may prevent release.
- DPS&C
- Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections.
Concordia Parish Visits Money
The sheriff's jail information page states that in-person visitation has been suspended until further notice at Concordia Parish Jail, Concordia Parish Corrections Facility, and the Concordia Parish Women's Facility. The same research did not locate a restored public visit schedule, mail rule sheet, dress code, child-visitor policy, visit duration, or tablet pricing. Do not borrow those rules from another parish. Confirm with the specific facility before travel, mail, or deposits.
| Facility | Public Visits | Attorney Visits |
|---|---|---|
| Concordia Parish Jail | Suspended until further notice on the sheriff jail page. | Schedule in-person or Zoom 24 hours ahead, 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM, at 318-414-0231. |
| Concordia Parish Correctional Facility | Suspended until further notice on the sheriff jail page. | Same attorney scheduling instruction. |
| Concordia Parish Women's Facility / CPCF II | Suspended until further notice on the sheriff jail page. | Same attorney scheduling instruction. |
| River Correctional Center | Use ICE or facility-specific rules. | Call the facility or ICE line for detainee-specific instructions. |
Money and video-call setup are more concrete. The sheriff's homepage points users to deposits.jailATM.com for video calls or inmate account deposits. The jail page also lists inmatefinancial.com, the facility code CPCF, a lobby kiosk that accepts cash or credit cards Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, and a phone payment line at 855-700-0077 for credit or debit cards.
Note: confirm the person is still in the correct Concordia facility before sending funds or trying to schedule any visit.
Concordia Parish App Limits
The Concordia Parish Sheriff's Office has a mobile app named Concordia Parish SO on Google Play and the Apple App Store. The store descriptions found in the research describe reporting crimes, submitting tips, public-safety news, and other interactive communication features. They did not state that the app has an inmate roster, warrant lookup, most-wanted list, records-request portal, or booking-photo feed. Treat the app as a sheriff communication channel unless a feature is verified inside the app.
For jail inmate records, the primary access chain remains roster, jail phone, in-person or written public-records request, Louisiana VINE/DPS&C, BOP, and ICE. That order matches the custody question instead of forcing every search through one tool.
