Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex

The Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex opened in January 2019. It sits at 952 Hwy 3185 in Thibodaux. This is a modern facility that replaced the older parish jail. The complex holds inmates from across Lafourche Parish, including those booked from Thibodaux, Lockport, and Golden Meadow. It also processes arrests from Port Fourchon, State Police, and federal agencies. The phone number for the jail is (985) 449-4458.

The LPCC is the main booking point for the parish. When someone gets arrested in Lafourche Parish, they are brought here for processing. Each booking creates a record that includes the person's name, date of birth, charges, and bond amount. These records feed into the online lookup systems that the public can use. Inmates held here are part of the Lafourche Parish inmate population count that gets reported to the state each month.

Note: The old parish jail is no longer in use for general population housing since the LPCC opened.

Search Lafourche Parish Inmate Population Online

There are two main ways to search the Lafourche Parish inmate population online. The first is through the LA VINE system, which is the statewide roster tool used by most Louisiana parishes. The second is through the Zuercher Portal, which is a more detailed search tool run by the sheriff's office. Both are free. No account is needed for either one.

The Lafourche Parish LA VINE roster updates throughout the day. You can search by name or booking number. Results show current charges, bond amounts, and booking dates. If you want to track a specific inmate over time, you can sign up for alerts through VINE Link. The alert system sends a call, text, or email when an inmate's status changes. That could mean a release, transfer, or court event.

Visiting Inmates in Lafourche Parish

Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex has rules for visiting inmates. Visits last 15 minutes. A max of two visitors can go in at once. You must be at least 17 years old to visit. Bring a valid photo ID. Former inmates must wait 120 days after their own release before they can visit someone else at the facility.

The jail also offers video visitation through ICSolutions.com. This lets you talk to an inmate by video from home or from a kiosk at the facility. Video visits are popular because they cut down on travel time, especially for families who live far from Thibodaux. Check with the jail for the current video visit schedule and any fees that apply.

Commissary deposits can be made through the LPSO app or the sheriff's office website. Inmates use commissary funds to buy snacks, hygiene items, and other goods from the jail store. The funds go into the inmate's account and they can spend them at set times each week.
