How to Contact an Inmate at Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility (TN)

Start with the Knox County Sheriff's Office online inmate search. It lists booking details and charges, so you can confirm whether the person you're trying to reach is currently in the Knox County system. The search results also show basic information you'll likely be asked about if you call.

The online search confirms two things: booking details with charges, and an Inmate Services phone line for follow-up questions. What it doesn't include are the day-to-day details you'll need for communication, like visitation schedules, mail rules, phone policies, hours, or vendor and fee information. For anything time-sensitive or specific to contacting someone at Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility, use the online search as your starting point, then verify details by phone.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Use the Knox County Sheriff’s Office online inmate search to look up the person and review the booking details and charges listed.
• ✓ If the person is listed and you have questions or need confirmation, call Inmate Services at 865-281-6700.

Once you locate someone in the Knox County inmate search, you'll still need to confirm the practical details that aren't listed there. Ask whether the person is currently housed at Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility and what the current rules are for contacting them. That means the visitation schedule and requirements, mail and package policies, how inmate phone calling works, and how commissary is handled (including any fees that may apply). These details can change, so treat the search results as a reference point and verify contact rules directly.
