About the Sullivan County Correctional Facility

The Sullivan County Correctional Facility has a rated capacity of 619 beds, but consistently has over 900 inmates in their custody on any given day, and when the current jail expansion that is underway is completed, they will have a new total capacity of 1179 beds. The jail regularly exceeds its rated capacity by 160%.

Needless to say, that is a massive number of inmates for a county of under 170,000 people, but indicative of three things:  1) The growth rate of the county and state, 2) The high crime rate the county is experiencing, and 3) The 'get tough on crime' approach of the county, in which even low level criminals are detained while they fight their charges in court. The jail was first built in 1987, housing the current rated capacity of 619 beds.

Then there's the cost. Sullivan County spends approximately $42.00 per day to keep some locked up. That comes to $38,000 per day, or over $1.1 million per month. Clearly the taxpayers are paying a high price to keep criminals off the street and in the jail.

The expansion, due to be completed by 2025, calls for a 190,000-square-foot building, costing nearly $95 million, on approximately three acres of land just behind the existing jail. This expansion will add approximately 460 beds, with room to add even more at a later date. The current jail is built on a linear design, meaning long hallways with cells. This creates blind spots and requires more correctional officers to monitor. The new design will create several seperate 'pods', which allow the ability to monitor groups of 50-60 inmates from a single location, and the ability to seperate different classifications of inmates, not to mention rival gang members.

The Sullivan County Correctional Facility is located at 140 Blountville Bypass in Blountville TN 37617. You can reach the jail 24 hours a day be calling 423-279-7500. You can view look up inmates online on the official Jail Inmate Roster which shows you their name, mugshot and date they were booked into jail.

If you want to find further information, such as the status of an offender's court case, including their criminal charges, you can find it online at the Sullivan County Criminal Court Case Lookup website.

Mail can be received every day and is processed and passed to the inmates quickly. Friends and family of inmates in the Sullivan County Correctional Facility can arrange to visit inmates by video, both at the jail and remotely from home. Friends and family can also communicate using an online text/email system, send them money and buy them commissary online, and set up a phone account that allows the inmates to call them during the day and evening seven days a week.

All the information on these inmate services can be found in the sections below.  If you still have questions, you can phone the jail 24 hours a day by calling 423-279-7500.

Recent Bookings & Arrests

What happens during booking at Sullivan County Correctional Facility?

After arrest, individuals are processed at Sullivan County Correctional Facility, where they undergo a series of steps that determine their charges and whether they’ll be released on their own recognizance, allowed to post bail, or held until their court date.

  • Collecting DNA if necessary.
