This is a private reference site, not a Hart County government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record directly.
Official Hart County Contacts
Choose the contact by the kind of answer needed. The jail handles current local custody and booking questions. The arresting police agency handles its incident report. The court clerk handles case files and dispositions. Hart County's sheriff and jailer are separate offices, so one call may not answer every part of an arrest inquiry.

For city incidents, Munfordville City Police is at 111 Main Street and can be reached at 270-524-5359. Horse Cave City Police is at 121 Woodlawn Avenue and can be reached at 270-786-4357; non-emergency dispatch is 270-524-0011. Use 911 for an emergency. Neither city police directory entry offered a public arrest-log or dedicated records email during the research review, so ask the office for its current custodian and request method.
Use the source that matches the request:
- For a mugshot or booking intake record, begin with the jail and use the Hart County source map for the official request sequence.
- For state custody or supervision, use the Kentucky Department of Corrections KOOL search, not the county jail.
- For someone arrested within the same-day window, call Hart County Jail because no verified public live feed was available in the research snapshot.
- For a release or transfer alert, use Kentucky VINE and verify an urgent status directly with the jail.
- For charges, hearings, dismissals, pleas, or judgments, use CourtNet or contact the Hart Circuit Court Clerk.
- For a federal prisoner, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator; for immigration custody, use the ICE detainee locator.
- For a narrow public-record request, first identify whether police, the sheriff, jailer, or clerk is the official custodian.
