How to Find Someone at Montgomery County Regional Jail (KY) Using KOOL — Step-by-Step

Trying to find someone who may be at Montgomery County Regional Jail? KOOL (Kentucky Offender Online Lookup) is a good place to start. It lets you search offender information using a few different fields. One thing worth knowing before you begin: KOOL's own advice is to enter as little information as needed to get a match. That way, you avoid narrowing your search too much and accidentally missing the person you're looking for.

Start broad. Even if you know the person's full name and other details, try entering just one field at first (like a last name). KOOL's own tip is to enter as little offender information as needed to get a match. Once results come back, you can narrow things down from there. Going too specific too early is one of the most common reasons people come up empty.

No results? Follow the on-screen guidance. KOOL tells you to check your spelling when nothing comes back. Even a small typo can block a match. Before you assume the person isn't in the system, double-check what you entered in each field.

1. Check spelling in every field you used - Fix typos and try a simpler entry if you can.
2. Click RESET DATA - KOOL directs you to use the RESET DATA button when a search returns no results.
3. Redo your search - Run the search again after resetting, using minimal information to widen your chances of a match.

Not sure what a field is asking for? Use the built-in help. KOOL instructs you to hover your mouse over the question-mark icons (?) for additional instructions or information. Those little pop-up hints clear up common confusion, like whether a field expects an alias, a specific ID number, or a certain format. If your search isn't working the way you expect, the question marks are often the fastest way to confirm you're using the fields correctly.

Troubleshooting Checklist

• ✓ Try again using as little information as needed to get a match (start broad).
• ✓ If you get no results, re-check spelling.
• ✓ Click RESET DATA, then redo your search.
• ✓ Hover over the question-mark icons (?) to see field-specific instructions or information.

Use KOOL results responsibly. KOOL warns that misusing information from the site to harass an offender is a criminal offense punishable by law.
