The Coshocton County Justice Center, constructed in 1973, was designed to accommodate up to 60 inmates. Functioning as a full-service facility, the Coshocton County Jail serves various law enforcement entities including the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office, West Lafayette Police Department, Probation and Parole for local courts, and other federal agencies.

Inmates housed in the Justice Center encompass a wide spectrum, ranging from individuals charged with minor traffic offenses to those facing capital punishment.

Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate.
