Tygart Valley Regional Jail Mugshots: Search WV Bookings, Confirm Custody and Take the Right Next Step

If you searched for Tygart Valley Regional Jail mugshots, you probably need one of three things: a current inmate lookup, a recent booking report, or instructions for what to do after you find the jail record.

This guide starts with the official WV jail search, then walks you through daily incarcerations, facility confirmation, court lookup, visitation, inmate mail, money deposits, calls/video visits, WV VINE notifications, PREA reporting and reentry resources.

Presumption of innocence: a mugshot, arrest, booking entry or charge is not a conviction. Use WV jail records for custody checks, WV court tools for case status, and the correct clerk/facility for time-sensitive confirmation.
Do this first

Open WV Offender Search and verify the result says Tygart Valley Regional Jail

Tygart Valley Regional Jail and Correctional Facility is operated by the West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The official facility page lists 400 Abbey Road, Belington, WV 26250 and phone 304-637-0382.

How to Check Today’s TVRJ Bookings or Recent Incarcerations

Daily Incarcerations is useful when the arrest is fresh, the normal name search is not showing the person, or you want to check a date-based list.

Open WV Daily Incarcerations. Go to WV Daily Incarcerations.
Select or review the relevant date. If the arrest happened late at night, check the next day too.
Look for the institution/facility clue. Confirm the entry connects to Tygart Valley.
Compare the identity details. For common names, do not rely on name alone.
Return to the normal offender search. Use the normal jail result for later custody checks.
Timing tip: a very recent arrest may not show immediately. Intake, transport and posting can create a delay. For urgent custody confirmation, call TVRJ.

How to Read a TVRJ Mugshot Record Correctly

A mugshot is only one clue. The useful part is knowing what action the official record supports.

TVRJ record decoder
Record detail What it helps answer What to do next
Mugshot / booking photo A visual clue for a possible booking match. Verify identity and facility before sharing or acting on it.
Facility Whether the person is connected to TVRJ. Use TVRJ-specific visit/travel rules only if the facility matches.
Booking / incarceration date When the custody record was created. Use Daily Incarcerations for fresh entries.
Charge wording The allegation or public booking label. Use WV court search for case status and disposition.
Bond / hold clue Why someone may still be in custody. Confirm with court/facility before assuming release eligibility.
County / case clue Which court clerk may have the file. Search the correct county and call the clerk for copies.
Do not treat a charge as a conviction. Charges can be amended, dismissed, bound over, resolved or sealed later.

No TVRJ Result Found? Use This Decision Path

Name spelling

Try last name only, partial surname, hyphenated spelling, maiden name, middle initial or fewer filters.

Fresh arrest

Check Daily Incarcerations and recheck later because new bookings may not appear instantly.

Released

The person may have bonded out or been released. Use court records or VINE if status still matters.

Wrong WV facility

Check whether the person is at Northern, North Central, Eastern, Potomac Highlands, Western or another WV facility.

Prison transfer

If the person moved from jail to prison, use WV Offender Search – Prisons from the DCR search hub.

Court-only issue

A summons, warrant or case can exist without a current TVRJ booking. Use WV court search.

Restricted record

Juvenile, sealed, expunged, protected or incomplete records may not appear in public search tools.

Before you travel

Route 33 / Elkins-area planning

WV DCR says TVRJ is off the Coalton/Norton exit of Route 33, seven miles west of Elkins. The official visitation rules say there is no local transportation or bus service, and the nearest taxi is in Elkins.

Before leaving home Confirm the inmate is still at TVRJ → confirm the visit is approved → check weather and Route 33 travel time → bring ID → leave prohibited items in your vehicle → call the facility if the visit is near a holiday.

Counties Served by Tygart Valley Regional Jail

WV DCR lists the counties below for TVRJ. Use the county as a clue for court follow-up, not as proof of current custody.

TVRJ county-routing guide
County How it helps the user
Barbour County Belington / Philippi-area arrests may route through TVRJ; verify facility and court county.
Pocahontas County Use Daily Incarcerations for fresh arrests, then confirm the filing court.
Preston County Check the WV facility line because Preston-area custody may change by transfer/release.
Randolph County TVRJ is in Randolph County; Elkins-area searches still require name/facility verification.
Taylor County Use the county clue to find the correct magistrate or circuit court record.
Tucker County Check both TVRJ custody and Tucker County court records when needed.
Upshur County Buckhannon-area cases may require TVRJ lookup plus Upshur court follow-up.
Common mistake: TVRJ is a WV regional jail facility, not a county sheriff-only jail page. Start with WV DCR tools, then move to the correct county court.

How TVRJ Visitation Works: No Walk-In Guessing

Tygart Valley visitation is non-contact, scheduled in advance, and started by the inmate’s request. The official PDF gives the rules that visitors usually need before driving to Belington.

TVRJ non-contact visitation schedule
Day Visit window Important practical note
Monday No regular visitation Request window opens Monday 8:00 a.m. for the following week.
Tuesday 3:00 p.m.–8:00 p.m. No appointments after 7:30 p.m.
Wednesday No regular visitation Do not travel unless you have special/professional confirmation.
Thursday No regular visitation Request window closes Thursday at noon for the following week.
Friday No regular visitation No regular social visitation listed.
Saturday 8:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. No appointments after 12:30 p.m.
Sunday 1:00 p.m.–6:00 p.m. No appointments after 5:30 p.m.
Visit length

30 minutes

Visits are non-contact and one half-hour long unless prior approval is granted.

Monthly limit

One visit per month

Each inmate is generally allotted one monthly visit, subject to classification/security limits.

Visitor limit

2 adults or 1 adult + 2 minors

Anyone not listed on the inmate’s approved request is not eligible to visit.

Visitor micro-guide

Have the inmate submit TVRJ Form 5-0029. The inmate must request the visit between Monday 8:00 a.m. and Thursday noon for the following week.
Make sure every visitor is named. Visitors who arrive but are not listed on the approved request cannot visit.
Bring valid government photo ID. The PDF lists examples such as driver’s license, government non-driver photo ID, U.S. passport/passport card and U.S. military ID.
Prepare child documents before travel. Minor children need proper adult supervision and may require a notarized juvenile visitation form plus birth certificate. Facility notaries cannot notarize the form.
Leave personal items in the vehicle. Do not bring purses, pocketknives, cell phones, diaper bags, watches or similar items into the visitation area.
Dress for the metal detector and dress code. The PDF prohibits shorts, headwear, tight clothing, sleeveless clothing, see-through clothing, low-cut/short tops and other restricted clothing.
Arrive on time. Visitors more than 15 minutes late can be denied unless they called ahead with a valid reason and informed staff.
Contraband warning: the visitation rules state that introducing illegal drugs, alcohol or weapons into an institution or onto state property is a felony and can result in arrest and prosecution.
After opening the visitation PDF Confirm schedule → check request window → review visitor limits → review minor-child requirements → review ID and clothing rules → check prohibited items → call TVRJ if visiting near a holiday.

How to Send Mail to a Tygart Valley Regional Jail Inmate

For personal letters, WV DCR uses a centralized scanning address. This is one of the most important practical details because people often mail letters to the facility street address by mistake.

WV DCR letter format
Inmate’s First and Last Name and OID Number
Tygart Valley Regional Jail and Correctional Facility
PO Box 336
Phoenix, MD 21131

The sender must include a full return address with complete first and last name. WV DCR says no initials.

Do this Use the inmate’s full name, OID if available, full facility name and Phoenix MD scanning address.
Do not do this Do not include photos, enclosures, attachments or multiple offenders in one envelope.
Before mailing Recheck the current WV DCR mail page because mail-processing rules can change.
After opening the WV DCR mail page Copy the address format → confirm full facility name with no abbreviations → find OID if shown in the jail search → write only a handwritten or typed letter → remove photos/enclosures → add full sender name and return address.

How to Set Up TVRJ Inmate Calls or Video Visits

WV DCR says it has contracted with GettingOut for inmate calling and video visits. This is separate from in-person non-contact visitation.

Official route

WV DCR Calling and Video Visits

Open WV DCR Calling and Video Visits

Use the DCR page to reach the current GettingOut web/app route.

Before funding account

Confirm custody and facility

If the person was released or transferred, the calling/video route can change. Verify the TVRJ record before adding funds.

How to Find the Court Case After a TVRJ Booking

The jail result tells you custody. The court record helps explain filing, hearings, disposition, and whether the case is magistrate or circuit level.

Magistrate route

WV Magistrate Record Search

WV Judiciary says users can search magistrate records by first name, last name or case number. The search can show case details, but court documents themselves are not provided online through that search.

Circuit route

WV Court Records Access

Use WV Court Records Access when the case is in circuit court or has moved beyond the initial magistrate level.

Save the jail record details. Keep name, booking/incarceration date, charge text, county clue and any case/citation number.
Open WV Magistrate Record Search. Search by case number if available; otherwise search by exact name.
Match the county carefully. TVRJ serves Barbour, Pocahontas, Preston, Randolph, Taylor, Tucker and Upshur counties.
Use circuit search when appropriate. Later-stage felony or circuit matters may not be fully answered by a magistrate-only search.
Contact the correct clerk for documents. WV Judiciary says users should call or visit the magistrate court clerk in the county where the case was filed to obtain copies of specific court records.

WV Magistrate Record Search Instructions · Open Magistrate Case Search · WV Court Records Access

Jail and court systems may update at different speeds. For urgent hearing, bond or release questions, confirm with the facility or the correct court clerk.

Save the exact name, facility, booking/incarceration date, charge wording, county clue, case number if shown, and the date you checked the official source. That is more useful than a mugshot alone.
