Greene County Sheriff and Jail
The Greene County Detention Center is the county jail. It sits with the sheriff's office in Paragould. The jail takes in all Greene County 72 hour booking intake from the sheriff plus arrests made by Paragould Police. The jail runs under Arkansas Jail Standards. Staff take the first mugshot at intake, print the person, and run a name check. The booking sheet goes into the jail management system within an hour of arrival.
The jail holds pretrial inmates, short-sentence inmates, and state holds waiting for a prison bed. Daily count runs moderate for a mid-size rural county. A felony booking moves to Circuit Court. A misdemeanor heads to District Court. Paragould is the main population center in the county, so most bookings come from that city.
Visits at the Greene County Detention Center follow a posted schedule. Mail routes through the jail address. Commissary lets an inmate buy approved items. Phone calls run through a contract phone service. Medical care runs through a contract nurse or clinic. The sheriff's office uses the jail management system to push live inmate data to the online roster, which is rare among small Arkansas counties.
Note: The Greene County Detention Center is the only jail in Greene County, so every Greene County 72 hour booking routes to this site in Paragould.

Note: Juvenile booking files in Greene County are sealed under state law and are not released through a Freedom of Information Act request.
If the sheriff does not reply in three days, or holds back a record without a valid cause, you can appeal. File a civil action in Circuit Court under § 25-19-107. The Attorney General also gives informal FOIA opinions, which can help settle a dispute without a lawsuit.
