Who to Call About Hill-Finklea: Main Line, Deposit Help, and Inmate Lookup Tips

For most urgent questions, call the Hill-Finklea Detention Center main line at 843-719-4546. It's staffed 24 hours, making it your best bet for time-sensitive issues - checking on a detainee's status, asking about release, or raising a concern that can't wait until morning. Even for general questions you can't find answers to elsewhere, this is the number to call.

• ✓ Call 843-719-4546 when you need detention center staff for a time-sensitive question.
• ✓ Use the main line for general information you can’t find through other resources.
• ✓ If you’re worried about someone’s immediate wellbeing or a situation that needs quick attention, start with the 24-hour main line.

Hit a snag with a deposit? Call (912) 427-9022. This is the dedicated line for deposit issues - payments that won't process, transactions that look off, that kind of thing. It's faster than calling the jail and hoping someone can help.

• ✓ Your name (the depositor name) and a callback number
• ✓ The payment method you used (card type or other method)
• ✓ Any transaction ID/confirmation number you received (or the approximate time and date you attempted the deposit)
• ✓ The inmate’s name and ID number (if you have it)

The inmate lookup tool handles quick, basic checks. Enter a name, and results display key details: Charges, Arresting Agency, and Date Range of Arrest. If you just need to confirm someone's listed and see their booking basics, this gets you there.

On the same inmate lookup page, you’ll also see a “current inmate population” snapshot. The page lists Males: 429 and Females: 67 as the displayed counts.

• ✓ Start with the full name when you can; if you don’t get a match, try a shorter version of the name.
• ✓ If the results look too broad, use what you know about the Date Range of Arrest to narrow it down.
• ✓ When you find a record, use the fields shown - Charges and Arresting Agency - to confirm you’re looking at the right person.
• ✓ If you’re checking the site regularly, note that the page also displays current population counts (Males and Females), which can help you confirm you’re viewing the correct lookup page.

Use the inmate lookup for basic checks - searching a name and reviewing Charges, Arresting Agency, and Date Range of Arrest. Pick up the phone when something's urgent or the website can't help. For time-sensitive detention center questions, the 24-hour main line (843-719-4546) is where to start. For deposit problems, skip the jail and call (912) 427-9022 directly - it's the number specifically for deposit troubleshooting.

• ✓ Deposit didn’t go through or looks wrong → call (912) 427-9022.
• ✓ Urgent detention center question (release timing, immediate concern) → call 843-719-4546 (24 hours).
• ✓ You just need basic booking details like charges/arresting agency/date range → use the inmate lookup search by name.
