Located at 407971 Hwy 62E in Boley, OK, JLCC carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. JLCC offers diverse educational and vocational programs aimed at equipping offenders for successful reintegration into society and reducing recidivism. Through these initiatives, inmates gain skills and confidence, fostering personal growth and resilience.

JLCC, situated just east of Boley on Oklahoma Highway 62, serves as a minimum-security prison for male inmates. Originally established in 1923 as a sanitarium for African-Americans afflicted with tuberculosis, the facility evolved over the years, serving as the State Training School for Negro Boys and later the Boley State School for Boys.

Following the closure of the school by the State Legislature in 1983, the property was transferred to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (ODOC) and repurposed into a prison. Today, JLCC accommodates a significant portion of the state's elderly and physically challenged inmate population, boasting a capacity of over 800 individuals.

The facility pays tribute to its history and legacy by bearing the name of its first superintendent, John H. Lilley. Known for his unwavering dedication and compassion toward the institution's children, Lilley's influence is deeply ingrained in JLCC's ethos. Despite his untimely passing in 1933 due to a car accident, Lilley's legacy lives on, with his final resting place adjacent to the facility's entrance, serving as a poignant reminder of his enduring commitment to those under his care.

Inmate Locator

JLCC maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.

If unable to locate the desired information through free resources, users may opt to use the Arrest Record Search, which requires payment. While this option incurs a small fee, it provides access to the most up-to-date data available.
