Official Owen County Contacts
The correct contact depends on whether the question concerns the arrest, jail intake, current custody, or a filed court case. Owen County arrest reports may begin with the sheriff, Owenton Police, or Kentucky State Police. The strongest documented detention contact for many Owen-related bookings is in Carroll County.

103 W. Perry StreetOwenton, KY 40359
Phone: 502-484-3363
Hours: Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The sheriff’s official page lists this address. Another Kentucky directory lists 102 N. Madison Street with the same telephone number, so call before an in-person visit.
Carroll County Detention Center
800 Clay StreetCarrollton, KY 41008
Phone: 502-732-9499

Ask whether the person was booked, released, transferred, or routed elsewhere. For a booking sheet or photo, ask who is the current official custodian and how requests are accepted.

This is the county’s general written open-records route. It does not establish that the office holds a Carroll jail record or an arrest report created by another agency.
Use the following routes to narrow the request:
- For a booking record or mugshot, start with the arresting agency and the detention center that processed intake.
- For a same-day question, use 24 Hour Arrests to follow the official Carroll, agency, and VINE sequence.
- For several prior days, check the Arrest Log process and submit a request with exact start and end dates.
- For a filed case or disposition, contact the Owen Circuit Court Clerk at 401 S. Main Street, Owenton, or call 502-484-2232.
- For state custody or supervision, use the Kentucky Department of Corrections offender lookup rather than a county booking source.
- For federal prison custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator; immigration detention uses the separate ICE locator.
- For urgent danger or an emergency, call 911 rather than a records office or automated alert service.
Owen County’s official request instructions call for a written, signed, specific description with the requester’s name, mailing address, and phone number. Include the person, date range, location, agency, and exact record type. If the office does not hold the record, ask it to identify the likely custodian. Do not send sensitive personal data unless the official process requires it.
