Lookup Mifflin County Correctional Facility Inmates

Mifflin County Correctional Facility Overview

Mifflin County Correctional Facility is operated by Mifflin County Government and serves as the practical jail facility for Juniata County prisoners. The official Juniata County prison page states that Juniata County Prison closed on July 25, 2012, and directs prisoners and families to MCCF. The facility page identifies Warden Jason Kormanic and describes MCCF as a detention facility that holds inmates as directed by the courts, provides treatment services, and maintains a safe physical setting for the public, staff, and prisoners.

MCCF also serves as the Central Booking Center for criminal fingerprinting and arraignment, Megan's Law processing, and public fingerprinting. That central booking role matters for Juniata County cases because a local arrest can move through Juniata police, magisterial court, Common Pleas court, and the District Attorney while the jail bed is in Lewistown. MCCF is a regional jail-style facility, not a Pennsylvania state prison and not a federal or ICE facility.

The official MCCF facility homepage in the manifest shows the local facility page where contact information and quick links are published.

The facility page is the starting point for jail operations, while lookup and notification are routed to UJS and VINELink.

Mifflin County Correctional Facility Population

The 2024 PREA Final Audit gives the most current hard facility numbers. It lists a designed facility capacity of 165, a current population of 135 in the facility information section, and an average daily population of 136 for the prior 12 months. The audit states that MCCF had not been over capacity during that period. It also reports nine housing units, 62 staff with inmate contact, 42 contractors authorized to enter, and 37 volunteers with inmate contact.

The audit describes adult males and females, ages 18 to 77, across minimum, medium, maximum, and close custody levels. These are facility-wide MCCF figures. They should not be described as a Juniata-only jail population because the facility also serves Mifflin County and the research did not locate a daily count limited to Juniata prisoners.

Lookup Inmates at MCCF

MCCF does not publish a local public inmate roster with booking photos, housing units, and bond fields. Its official inmate lookup page sends users to Pennsylvania UJS Case Search and VINELink. UJS is the court-record channel for charges, dockets, bail entries, hearings, and dispositions. VINELink is the custody-notification channel for status and release alerts.

1. Call MCCF at 717-248-1130 for custody questions that the public online tools do not answer.
2. Search UJS by participant name, then narrow results to Juniata County or the relevant court type.
3. Use VINELink when custody status or release notification is the main need.
4. Search the Pennsylvania DOC locator if the person has moved from county jail custody to state prison or parole.
5. Use BOP or ICE separately if federal or immigration custody is possible.

MCCF Address and Contact

MCCF is the contact point for current facility operations, but court dates, bail authority, records release, and transport information may belong to another office. The official FAQ says the facility cannot state exactly when an inmate will go to court because only the committing authority can answer that accurately. It also says MCCF cannot release transport information.

Visiting MCCF Inmates

The January 2025 MCCF Family Information Guide sets the visiting rules. Main facility visiting runs Tuesday through Friday and Saturday, with overflow and special visits during weekday morning blocks when approved. Each inmate generally receives one one-hour visit per week and one religious visit per week, although actual time is shorter because changeover is included. RHU inmates receive one half-hour visit per week on Fridays.

Visitors must be on the inmate's approved list, show photo ID unless age 16 or under, arrive five minutes early, sign in and out, dress appropriately, and pass metal-detector screening. Cell phones, cameras, BlackBerrys, and other electronic devices are not allowed in the booth, and lockers are available. Visits may be monitored and recorded except attorney visits.

MCCF Mail, Phone, and Money

Mail must be sent through U.S. Mail to the inmate at the facility address. Incoming mail is opened, checked for contraband, logged, scanned, and delivered digitally on the tablet system. Mail is destroyed after 30 days, while photos are stored in the inmate's property. MCCF limits photo quantity and size, and it bans items such as stickers, tape, glitter, perfume, laminated materials, envelopes, stamps, weapon or drug content, gang material, pornography, medication, hygiene items, and food.

Phone calls use Combined Public Communications and InmateSales. Calls are generally allowed from housing units between 7:00 a.m. and 9:20 p.m. unless rules say otherwise. The October 2023 phone notice lists local, in-state long-distance, out-of-state long-distance, and app calls at $0.18 per minute, with taxes applying to standard calls. MCCF will not disclose inmate account balances to the public.

Confirm custody before sending funds because transfers, release, or a wrong identity can make a deposit hard to correct.

Booking and Bail at MCCF

MCCF serves as the Central Booking Center for criminal fingerprinting and arraignment. A Juniata County arrest may move from law enforcement to booking, preliminary arraignment before an issuing authority, a bail decision, and then MCCF custody if the court commits the person to jail. The family guide also ties visitation to intake because inmates complete an Inmate Visitor Selection Form during the initial booking process and choose available visit times.

Bail is set by the court, not by MCCF. The family guide says a person who wants to post bail should call the proper court authority during normal business hours. After hours, bail may be posted by money order at MCCF if a known bail amount appears in the court documents that detain the inmate. The person posting bail should have photo ID. Release may not be immediate after bail is posted because MCCF must receive and process the correct paperwork.

MCCF Programs and PREA

MCCF's official page says detainees and sentenced inmates have access to programs while housed there, and the facility maintains a PREA zero-tolerance policy for institutional sexual harassment, assault, or abuse. The 2024 PREA audit reported 42 standards met, three exceeded, and zero not met. The audit also described reporting channels and facility contacts tied to PREA compliance.

The Juniata County Human Services Plan adds local reentry detail. Juniata Valley Behavioral and Developmental Services coordinates with law enforcement, probation and parole, courts, and corrections across Huntingdon, Mifflin, and Juniata Counties. An Administrative Management position is embedded at MCCF to help people in jail with psychiatric needs, including psychiatry and medication management, and monthly interdisciplinary reentry planning covers inmates from the tri-county area.
