Mail, photos, messaging, and phone/call options for staying in touch.
Rock County Jail lists Correctional Services Captains Nicholas Brown and Christopher Krahn as facility contacts, with Deputy Anthony Barr serving as the Project Lifesaver liaison. For inmate or jail records (including recordings), call the jail's designated records request phone line. Audio or video requests may require redaction, and the office may charge redaction costs under Wisconsin's 2023 Act 253, though some exemptions apply. Day-to-day communication with inmates, including phone calls, video visits, tablet messaging, and email, typically runs through third-party vendors. All communications are screened or monitored. Inmates generally cannot receive incoming calls directly. Instead, they place calls to approved numbers. To connect, you'll usually need to set up a vendor account and get approved before scheduling or adding funds.

Rock County Sheriff's Office handles requests for a wide range of records, including jail records, incident reports, arrest reports, accident reports, citations, photos, and recorded media like body camera or dash camera footage. One exception: if you need 911 audio, that goes through the Rock County 911 Communications Center—not the Sheriff's Office. Wisconsin's Public Records Law gives you flexibility here. You can make your request verbally or in writing. The main requirement is that it's "reasonably specific" about what you want and the time period involved, so staff can actually find the records.
