Bayou Dorcheat Jail Overview

Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center is operated by the Webster Parish Sheriff's Office Corrections Division. The sheriff's corrections page identifies the facility as the correctional center at 1455 Bravo Boulevard in Minden and names Warden Scott Tucker. Louisiana DPS&C also lists the same Bravo Boulevard location as Webster Detention Center, also known as Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center. For most current local custody questions, this is the Webster Parish jail destination rather than the courthouse-area sheriff administration address.

The held population is broader than a single city jail. Research for Webster Parish shows pretrial parish detainees, sentenced parish inmates, Louisiana DPS&C local jail prisoners, municipal arrestees, fugitive holds, probation and parole holds, and other-agency holds in the public roster data. A person arrested by Minden Police, Springhill Police, Louisiana State Police, or another local agency can still appear in the Webster Parish sheriff roster once entered into sheriff custody. That point matters because a city arrest does not always create a city jail record.

Classification

Jail assessment used to decide housing, security, program, and custody level.

Detainer

A hold or request from another agency that may block release even when a Webster charge has bond.

DOC transfer

A state-corrections custody status for a sentenced person or a person awaiting state placement.

Bayou Dorcheat Inmate Population

Bayou Dorcheat is the only Webster Parish facility in the research file with sourced capacity and current roster figures. A public facility profile tied to the sheriff-linked 2019 PREA material reports 440 maximum capacity, about 400 average population, and 71 full-time staff. The sheriff's live corrections page does not itself publish a capacity figure or an official average daily population, so those numbers should be read as profile and PREA-context figures, not as a live 2026 bed audit.

The Kologik public roster returned 526 ALL/current records on June 16, 2026, and 24 records under RECENT BOOKINGS. That 526 figure is a roster count from the public jail roster API, not an audited average daily population and not a certified count of occupied beds. It is still useful because it shows the scale of people tracked in Webster Parish custody and because it includes arresting-agency labels. The largest group in the count was Webster Parish Sheriff Office, followed by Minden PD, Springhill PD, Probation and Parole, and smaller agencies.

Bayou Dorcheat Inmate Lookup

The correct public lookup for Bayou Dorcheat is the Kologik Public Jail Roster linked by the sheriff as Current Inmate Search. The browser roster needs JavaScript, but the inspected system identified the agency as Webster Parish Sheriff's Office and displayed current roster cards. For notification registration, use Louisiana VINELink, because the generic Kologik VINE link handling was not visible for Webster in the public roster settings.

1. Open the Kologik roster from the sheriff corrections page.
2. Use Name Filter for any part of the first, middle, or last name.
3. Use RECENT BOOKINGS, ALL, or A-Z buttons to change the roster group.
4. Check the arresting agency, arrest date, charge table, warrant number, and bond field on the card.
5. Call Bayou Dorcheat if a record is missing, stale, or unclear.

The roster is strongest for current Webster Parish jail custody. Sentenced state-prison lookup is different. DPS&C routes public location checks to VINELink, and DPS&C records are limited by state confidentiality law. Federal custody is also separate, so a federal defendant may need the BOP locator, U.S. Marshals contact, or ICE ODLS instead of the parish jail roster.

Bayou Dorcheat Contact

Use the jail phone for current custody, visit confirmation, mail questions, and vendor routing. The sheriff main office at 410 Main Street handles broader sheriff administration and public-records routing, but the correctional campus is on Bravo Boulevard. Research did not locate a separate records desk phone, booking desk phone, lobby schedule, visitor entrance detail, or parking rule for this facility.

Bayou Dorcheat Visitation

The sheriff corrections page links City Tele Coin for video visitation and inmate phones, but the official research did not locate a Webster-specific social visit schedule, local video rate, visit length, approval rule, dress code, child visitor rule, or on-site versus remote visit distinction. Because the source gap is real, the safest visitor plan is to confirm scheduling and ID rules with Bayou Dorcheat before travel or before paying for a remote video account.

Attorney visits are not the same as social visits. The research did not locate a local attorney-entry policy, but legal visits are usually handled under separate jail rules and should be scheduled through the facility. Family visitors should not assume that City Tele Coin access means same-day approval. Jail status, discipline, court transport, medical status, or classification can affect visit access.

Bayou Dorcheat Mail Money

For jail services, the sheriff corrections page links CommissaryDeposit for inmate commissary and City Tele Coin for video visitation and inmate phones. No Webster-specific fee table, delivery day, deposit limit, phone rate, or mail format was located in the official source review. Do not send cash, packages, or personal property without first confirming the current jail rule.

Bayou Dorcheat Booking

A Webster Parish booking can begin with the sheriff, Minden PD, Springhill PD, Louisiana State Police, Probation and Parole, or another agency. The usual jail flow is arrest, transport, identity entry, search, property inventory, booking photo, fingerprints, health screening, entry of charges and holds, bond review, and classification. The sheriff does not publish a precise refresh interval, but the June 16, 2026 roster review showed same-day records with booking and arrest times.

Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure article 228 requires a booking book when a person is brought to a jail or police station for booking, and the public summary of booking information is open for inspection. In Webster Parish, the Kologik roster is the public online expression of that booking summary for current custody. It should not be confused with the formal court case. Prosecutors may later file, amend, reduce, or decline charges after intake.

About Bayou Dorcheat

Bayou Dorcheat sits in the broader Webster Parish correctional system that includes the separately listed Webster Parish Jail and the Webster Parish Transitional Work Program. The sheriff corrections page links a 2019 PREA audit, which is the best public facility-condition source located during research. Local public pages did not publish a grievance procedure, medical request process, religious services schedule, accreditation status, visitor parking fee, or ADA entrance detail.

For programs and reentry, Louisiana DPS&C materials matter because state prisoners can be housed in local jails and transitional work programs. DPS&C describes education, job skills, substance abuse programming, faith-based programming, pre-release curriculum, and transitional work as parts of the state reentry system. Those state-level descriptions should not be read as a guarantee that every program is available to every person at Bayou Dorcheat on a given date.
