Chesterfield County Jail Roster
Chesterfield County Detention Center custody information is published through Citizen Connect for current confinements and date-range admission searches. The Detention Center address in the research is 319 Goodale Road, Chesterfield, SC, with non-emergency phone 843-623-3385. The Sheriff's Office administrative office is separate, at 203 Watson Street, Chesterfield, SC 29709, phone 843-623-2101. Sheriff Campbell Streater is the current sheriff identified in the research source.
The Detention Center Citizen Connect landing page is assigned in the image manifest from the Chesterfield County Detention Center Citizen Connect page.
That portal is the official county online starting point for current jail confinement information, but it does not replace the Detention Center phone channel for very recent arrests.
Use Chesterfield County Inmate Search
The Citizen Connect inmate-confinements search provides the county roster path. It can show current confinements and admissions within a chosen date range. The research also found filters for charge and arresting agency. Because the Sheriff's booking-record page says booking records are not immediately available online, the online roster should be paired with a phone call when the arrest may have happened in the past 12 hours.
- Open Citizen Connect from the Detention Center agency page.
- Choose Current Confinements for people held now, or Admits by Date Range for recent admissions.
- Use a date range of 31 days or less when using the date-range mode.
- Narrow by charge or arresting agency when those filters are populated.
- Call 843-623-3385 if the person may have been arrested within the past 12 hours or if the roster result is unclear.
The inmate-confinements filters are shown in the assigned image sourced from the Citizen Connect inmate-confinements search.
The filter image supports the practical split between current confinement, admits by date, charge, and arresting-agency searches.
Chesterfield County Inmate Search Fields
Citizen Connect is not described in the research as a detailed jail handbook or a full booking-document download tool. Its captured search controls focus on confinement status, recent admission dates, charges, and arresting agencies. The visible agency examples include local police departments, the Sheriff's Department, SLED, SCHP, DNR, US Marshals, and federal inmate labels.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current Confinements | Tab or filter | Optional | Shows current county jail confinements. |
| Admits by Date Range | Tab or filter | Optional | Shows admission results in a selected date range. |
| Start Date | Date | Optional | Date-range start for admits searches. |
| End Date | Date | Optional | Date-range end; research notes a 31-day limit. |
| Last 24 Hours | Quick filter | Optional | Preset recent admission view. |
| Last 7 Days | Quick filter | Optional | Preset recent admission view. |
| Charge | Text or dropdown | Optional | Charge-based filter if populated. |
| Arresting Agency | Dropdown or list | Optional | Examples include Cheraw, Chesterfield, Pageland, McBee, SLED, SCHP, DNR, and USMS labels. |
Chesterfield County Inmate Record Fields
The research did not capture a reliable static detail page from the county portal. That means local copy should not promise mugshots, pod locations, release dates, magistrate names, warrant numbers, or charge-by-charge bond fields unless they appear during a live search. The safe field inventory is limited to the captured list and search controls, plus custody facts confirmed by phone or in person.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name or list entry | A visible inmate or admission list item when returned by Citizen Connect. |
| Current confinement status | Whether the person appears in the current county jail confinement view. |
| Admission date range | Whether a person appears within the selected 31-day or shorter admit range. |
| Charge filter | A charge category or text filter, not a guaranteed full court disposition. |
| Arresting agency | The agency label tied to the booking or confinement search result when shown. |
| Phone-confirmed custody | Detention Center confirmation for very recent arrests or unclear online records. |
Chesterfield County Booking Records
The Sheriff's booking-record instructions are a separate access channel from the current inmate roster. The research states that booking records are not immediately available online. For possible arrests within the past 12 hours, call the Detention Center at 843-623-3385 with the person's name. For older arrests, the Sheriff's page points to the South Carolina Judicial System Public Records Index, with Bond Court selected and the Charges tab reviewed after opening the case number.
The assigned image comes from the Sheriff's booking-record request instructions.
Those instructions are the reason recent arrests, older Bond Court charge searches, and current Citizen Connect confinement searches are treated as separate steps.
For older arrest-related charges, the court-facing record can overlap with court charge records. A Bond Court charge record may later connect to General Sessions, Magistrate, or Municipal Court depending on offense level and charging decisions. The charge record is not the same thing as the final sentence or a full criminal file.
Chesterfield County Detention Center
The research identifies one county jail facility for local inmate lookup: Chesterfield County Detention Center at 319 Goodale Road. It also identifies the Sheriff's Office administrative office at 203 Watson Street. The Sheriff's Office can help with sheriff-held records, incident reports, and administrative questions, while the Detention Center is the phone and in-person channel for custody checks, very recent arrests, and booking-report access.

An image assigned from the Cheraw Police Department app listing appears in the manifest through the sheriff and jail app-check research source: Cheraw Police Department App Store listing.
The research notes that this is a city police community app with tips, notifications, events, gallery, and social media features, not a county inmate or warrant database.
Chesterfield County Jail Visitation
No official Chesterfield County Detention Center webpage was located that publishes county jail visitation schedules, video visitation vendor, visitor ID rules, dress code, mail format, commissary vendor, inmate money deposit vendor, phone-tablet provider, price schedule, attorney visitation rules, holiday schedule, or emergency visitation policy. The useful county channel is direct confirmation with the Detention Center before travel or before sending mail or money.
| Topic | Official County Information Located | Practical Channel |
|---|---|---|
| In-person visitation schedule | Not located in official county web sources | Call 843-623-3385 |
| Video visitation | Not located | Call 843-623-3385 |
| Visitor ID or dress code | Not located | Call before visit |
| Mail format | Not located | Call 843-623-3385 |

The state prison family-services image is sourced from the SCDC family, visitation, mail, and money page.
That SCDC material applies only after a person is in state prison, not while the person is held in Chesterfield County Detention Center.
South Carolina State Inmates
A person sentenced to and incarcerated in South Carolina Department of Corrections custody is searched through SCDC, not the county jail roster. The research states that SCDC's public search displays inmates currently sentenced to and incarcerated in SCDC as of midnight the previous day. It excludes county detention facility sentences, released offenders, parole or probation cases, community supervision, juvenile offenders, and current SCDC fugitives. SCDC also lists a toll-free inmate information line at 1-866-727-2846 and a data-error email at Ombudsman@doc.sc.gov.
The SCDC inmate search source image comes from the SCDC inmate search disclaimer.
The disclaimer supports the county-to-state custody distinction because SCDC excludes people held only in county detention facilities.
| SCDC Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SCDC ID | Text | State corrections ID. |
| SID | Text | State ID. |
| First Name | Text | State inmate first name. |
| Last Name | Text | State inmate last name. |
| Phonetic Match | Checkbox | Broadens name matching. |
Jail Records and Public Access
South Carolina FOIA provides a general right to inspect, copy, or receive public records unless an exemption or other law applies. The research also notes that Section 30-4-50 includes certain jail and detention confinement documents among public information categories, subject to limits. Fees for search, retrieval, redaction, and copying must be tied to actual costs, and electronic transmission cannot be charged as a copy fee.
The public-records image is sourced from South Carolina FOIA and Public Records Act provisions.
The statute source explains why detention information can be public while still allowing redaction, delay, or exemption when another law applies.
SLED Registry Is Separate
SLED/SORT sex offender registry records are not jail records, arrest records, or full criminal court files. Registry status can show public registrant information and convictions, but it should not be used to infer that a person is currently in Chesterfield County jail. It is a separate statewide registry with its own search tools, caveats, and anti-harassment limits.
The registry source image is assigned from the SLED sex offender registry.
Use the registry for registry questions, then use Citizen Connect, Detention Center phone, Public Index, or SCDC for custody and court-status questions.
Federal Inmate Searches
Federal custody is another separate channel. The research identifies FCI Bennettsville as the nearest federal prison facility source and the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator as the federal name-search channel. These tools do not replace the Chesterfield County jail roster. They are useful when a person may be in federal Bureau of Prisons custody or was transferred after a federal sentence.
The facility image is sourced from the BOP FCI Bennettsville page.
That federal facility source helps separate nearby federal incarceration from Chesterfield County Detention Center custody.
The federal name-search image is sourced from the BOP inmate locator by-name search.
The BOP locator is the federal fallback when county and SCDC searches do not fit the person's custody path.
Custody, Charges, and Warrants
A jail booking can be the start of a court case, but it is not the final record. Bond Court may show early charges and bond entries after arrest. General Sessions, Magistrate Court, or Municipal Court may later show filed charges, pleas, docket actions, and dispositions. A warrant or hold can also lead to booking. When a person appears in custody, check the jail record for current status and then check court records for charge status.
For charge details after booking, use Bond Court and Public Index. For an active warrant concern, use the verified sheriff and court fallback chain described in Chesterfield County warrant records. For the difference between jail booking and formal court charges, use the Chesterfield County arrest records and charges path.
