Lee County Jail Roster
Three Forks Regional Jail serves Lee County inmate and jail roster needs. The official jail URLs located during research included the home page, current inmate list, visitation page, inmate deposits page, administrator page, contact page, directions page, and links page. The server blocked full page inspection during research with 502 Bad Gateway or connection reset responses, so only official URLs and visible search-result snippets should be used. The current inmate list URL exists, but the full roster and inmate-profile fields could not be inspected directly.
County-level source checks include the KCOJ Lee County page, the Lee County elected-officials page, and the Lee County services page. Those sources identify the Lee County Courthouse, Circuit Court Clerk Tyler Phillips, Sheriff Joseph C. Lucas, Jailer Justin Shuler, and Beattyville Police Department contacts.
Search snippets exposed several useful facts. The official jail address is Three Forks Regional Jail, 2221 Fairground Ridge Rd., Beattyville, KY 41311. A public listing gave phone 606-464-2598. The official administrator page snippet names Administrator Jared Pelfrey. The inmate-list snippet says information is for the general public and law enforcement and to contact the facility. Those points support a practical search method: try the official roster URL, then call the jail before relying on a stale or incomplete online result.
Use Lee County Inmate Search
The Three Forks current-inmate page appears to be a roster or list rather than a confirmed searchable form, but that could not be fully verified because the official pages were blocked. If the public list loads, check names, gender markers, and any numeric identifiers carefully. If it does not load, call the facility. Use court records for charge filing and court dates, because a jail roster may show custody without showing the final case outcome.
- Open the official Three Forks Regional Jail current inmate list URL if it is available.
- Search visually or by browser find if the page appears as a list rather than a form.
- Compare name fragments, gender markers, and numeric identifiers before assuming a match.
- Call Three Forks Regional Jail at 606-464-2598 if the roster is unavailable, unclear, or outdated.
- Check KYeCourts or call the Lee County Circuit Court Clerk for court charges, bond entries, and case status.
- Use KOOL only after a person may be in state DOC custody rather than local pretrial jail custody.
Lee County Roster Fields
The required roster field table must reflect what research could verify. The Three Forks page was blocked, so no ordinary last-name, first-name, booking-number, or date-of-birth search form was confirmed. The research did document the current-inmate URL, the blocked inspection status, and the fact that search snippets showed gender and numeric fragments. That means the best field inventory is an inspection-status table rather than an invented search form.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current Inmates page | List/table | N/A | Official URL exists; page fetch was blocked during research. |
| Search fields | Unknown | Unknown | No search input was visible in accessible snippets. |
| Name | List text | N/A | Snippets showed name fragments, but no full profile was opened. |
| Gender marker | List field | N/A | Snippet showed "M" in table fragments. |
| Numeric identifiers | List field | N/A | Snippet showed numeric fragments such as 364272944 and 81761 without accessible labels. |
| Facility contact | Phone/in person | Fallback | Call when the online list does not answer the custody question. |
Lee County Inmate Fields
No full Three Forks inmate profile was accessible during research. Do not claim that mugshots, charges, bond, housing unit, arresting agency, court date, or projected release are shown unless the official roster can be inspected later. The safe record inventory is limited to what snippets exposed and what was not confirmed.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Mugshot | Not confirmed because the official page was blocked. |
| Name | Search snippets showed names in list fragments. |
| Gender | Search snippets showed a gender marker in table fragments. |
| Booking / inmate identifiers | Numeric fragments appeared, but field labels were not accessible. |
| Charges | Not accessible from the blocked official roster page. |
| Bond | Not accessible from the blocked official roster page. |
| Court date | Not accessible from the blocked official roster page; use court records or the clerk. |

Lee County State Inmates
When a person moves from local custody to a Kentucky Department of Corrections sentence, the Kentucky DOC KOOL information page and KOOL portal become the better search path. KOOL is useful for sentenced state inmates, not every person newly booked into Three Forks Regional Jail. DOC says KOOL is provided as a public service and entries or updates are made daily to improve accuracy.
The image manifest assigns the Kentucky DOC KOOL information page to Lee County inmate records.
That statewide source helps distinguish local jail roster questions from post-sentence Kentucky DOC offender lookup.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Offender Type | Dropdown/query parameter | Optional | Example shown in research: incarcerated inmates. |
| Last Name | Text | Optional | Spelling matters; use any known alias checks when appropriate. |
| First Name | Text | Optional | Narrows results when the last name is common. |
| Middle Name | Text | Optional | Useful for identity checks. |
| Search aliases | Checkbox | Optional | Searches aliases if selected. |
| Photos only | Checkbox | Optional | Filters to offender records with photos. |
| Sort order / page size | Dropdown/query | Optional | Controls result display. |
Lee County Booking Process
Booking is the jail intake event after arrest. It can involve identification, intake records, custody classification, property, medical screening, release eligibility, and court routing, but those details were not confirmed from the blocked Three Forks pages. The safe record path is to separate custody from court. The jail can confirm whether a person is held. The court clerk can confirm filed charges, case number, court dates, bond orders, and disposition. The sheriff can answer warrant-service and law-enforcement questions.
For felony matters, Kentucky District Court may handle arraignment and probable-cause steps before the case moves to Circuit Court. For misdemeanors and traffic offenses, District Court may remain the main court. If an inmate search finds a person but no court case appears, the charge may not yet be indexed, may be in another county, may involve a warrant hold, or may require direct facility confirmation.
Lee County Jail Visits
The official Three Forks visitation page was located but blocked during research. Search-result snippets identified it as "Inmate Services - Three Forks Regional Jail" and exposed only part of the on-site visit schedule. The snippet showed male visitation on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and female visitation on Thursdays and Sundays, but the full female time was cut off. Do not infer ID rules, dress code, child rules, visit length, lockdown rules, remote-video pricing, attorney visit rules, or kiosk fees.
| Visitor / Inmate Category | Days | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Male visitation | Wednesday and Saturday | 7 a.m.-2:30 p.m. | Official snippet; confirm with jail before travel. |
| Female visitation | Thursday and Sunday | Time cut off in snippet | Official snippet confirms days but not full time. |
Note: Call Three Forks Regional Jail before travel because the official page could not be fully inspected during research.
Lee County Inmate Contact
Mail rules were not accessible from official sources during the research sweep. Confirm directly with Three Forks Regional Jail before sending mail, money orders, books, photographs, cards, or legal mail. Do not borrow rules from other Kentucky jails because facility rules vary. Attorney visitation is likely handled separately by the facility, but no official Lee or Three Forks rule page was visible.
| Service | Officially Visible Vendor / Channel | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Inmate deposits | CorrectPay.com | Official inmate-deposits snippet lists CorrectPay. |
| Chirps / messaging | InmateSales.com / Inmate Sales | Official snippet lists Chirps and Inmate Sales. |
| Phone/video/tablet | Not fully confirmed | No pricing or full rule page was accessible. |
| Commissary ordering | Not fully confirmed | Use deposit page and phone verification. |
Restricted Lee County Inmates
Jail records have public limits. Juvenile information, medical information, safety-sensitive details, investigative material, and some sealed court information may be withheld. KRS 17.150 can limit law-enforcement investigative records, and general open-record exemptions may apply. A jail roster may also lag behind real custody changes, especially for releases, transfers, court transports, or holds from another county.
Use VINELink for custody notifications when ongoing status matters. Use KOOL for state DOC offenders. Use the Lee County Circuit Court Clerk for filed court charges and dispositions. Use Three Forks Regional Jail for local custody and facility rules. These systems answer different questions, and none should be treated as a full substitute for the others.
