Find Eastern Regional Jail Bookings Through the Correct West Virginia Record
If you are looking for Eastern Regional Jail mugshots or inmate information in Martinsburg, start with the West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Its official systems separate recent incarcerations, individual jail searches and prison records.
Records Search
Court, Criminal, Marriage, Divorce, Property
A booking photograph, jail entry or arrest charge reflects an arrest or custody event. It does not establish guilt, a conviction or the final outcome of a criminal case. Use the West Virginia court system when you need to know what happened after booking.
Which Eastern Regional Jail Search Answers Your Question?
West Virginia does not use one page for every type of inmate or criminal record. Recent jail admissions, current jail custody, prison custody and court cases require different searches.
Is the person currently in a West Virginia regional jail?
Use WV DCR’s Offender Search (Jails). This is the appropriate starting point when you already know the person you are trying to locate.
Official jail offender search →Looking for a recent Eastern Regional Jail admission?
Use the official Daily Incarcerations system. This route is designed around recent regional-jail admissions rather than a permanent mugshot archive.
WV Daily Incarcerations →Need charges, hearings or case disposition?
Use West Virginia Judiciary after identifying the county where the criminal case was filed. A jail booking is not the court record.
WV Court Record Access →Was the person transferred from jail to prison?
WV DCR operates a separate prison offender search. Someone missing from the jail search may have moved to another custody setting.
WV Prison Offender Search →Need the underlying police or sheriff report?
The regional jail maintains custody information. The incident or arrest report usually belongs to the law-enforcement agency that made or investigated the arrest.

Our statewide WVRJA guide explains the current WV DCR system and how the regional-jail network fits together.
West Virginia regional jail guide →How to Search for an Eastern Regional Jail Inmate
Use the official WV DCR jail-search route when you already know the person’s identity and want to confirm regional-jail custody.
Open the WV DCR offender-search hub
Choose Offender Search (Jails). Do not use the prison option unless you have reason to believe the person has moved into state-prison custody.
Enter the identifying information requested by the state system
Use accurate identifying information and compare available details. Do not assume that people with similar names are the same person.
Confirm Eastern Regional Jail
Check that the record points to Eastern Regional Jail in Martinsburg when that is the facility you intend to search.
Review the available booking and custody information
Use booking details, dates and other available identifiers to confirm the match. Treat the record as time-sensitive because custody can change after release or transfer.
Follow the criminal case separately
If you need filed charges, future court dates or the outcome, use the appropriate magistrate or circuit court record rather than relying only on the jail entry.
How to Check Recent Eastern Regional Jail Bookings
The state’s Daily Incarcerations system is the more appropriate official source when your intent is a recent booking rather than the present status of one known person.
| What you need | Best starting source | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Very recent regional-jail admission | WV Daily Incarcerations | Use the recent-admissions route and confirm the institution. |
| One known person currently jailed | Offender Search (Jails) | Verify the person and current facility. |
| Person no longer showing in jail | Court search + appropriate records | Check for release, transfer or later case activity. |
| Possible state-prison transfer | Offender Search (Prisons) | Use the separate prison custody database. |
| Final or later criminal-case information | WV Judiciary | Search the county and court where the case was filed. |
Where Eastern Regional Jail Mugshots Fit Into the Search
People often use “Eastern Regional Jail mugshots” to mean the booking image attached to a recent custody record. The important first step is to identify the correct official inmate or booking record rather than relying on an image copied to another website.
Use WV DCR as the starting point
Search the official jail system or Daily Incarcerations for the underlying record. The information displayed can vary, and the absence of a public photo should not be treated as proof that no arrest occurred.
Use the court when legal outcome matters
A booking photograph reflects one stage of the process. The criminal docket provides later information about the case and should be checked before describing someone’s current legal status.
Which Counties Does Eastern Regional Jail Serve?
WV DCR’s current facility page lists Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties. The county associated with the arrest helps determine which court and local records may be relevant after the jail search.
Martinsburg and surrounding Berkeley County
Eastern Regional Jail itself is located in Berkeley County. Criminal cases arising there may be searchable through Berkeley County magistrate or circuit court records.
Charles Town and Jefferson County cases
WV DCR lists Jefferson County among the counties served by Eastern Regional Jail. Follow the court case through Jefferson County when that is where it was filed.
Berkeley Springs and Morgan County cases
Morgan County is also included in the facility’s service area. The jail may be in Martinsburg while the criminal case remains a Morgan County matter.
Eastern Regional Jail and Martinsburg Correctional Center Are Not the Same Facility
Both facilities are on Grapevine Road, which makes the distinction important when searching an inmate, mailing information or checking an address.
| Facility | Address | Primary role | Phone |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eastern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility | 94 Grapevine Road, Martinsburg, WV 25405 | Regional jail serving Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties | 304-267-0045 |
| Martinsburg Correctional Center and Jail | 38 Grapevine Road, Martinsburg, WV 25401 | 120-bed male intake and classification unit | 304-267-0156 |
The current WV DCR page for Martinsburg Correctional Center says that location originally opened as the original Eastern Regional Jail in 1989, but it now serves a different correctional function.
Check West Virginia Court Records for Charges and Case Outcome
The jail record tells you about custody. The court record is the correct source for the criminal case itself.
Magistrate Record Search
West Virginia Judiciary provides a free statewide magistrate search. Users can search by first or last name or by case number, and the system can return up to 30 records.
The Judiciary says court documents themselves are not available through that online search. Contact the magistrate clerk in the county where the case was filed when you need copies.
Circuit Court Search
West Virginia Judiciary also provides statewide circuit-court record access for all 55 counties. Use this route when the case is in circuit court.
| County | Magistrate clerk | Phone | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Berkeley | Berkeley County Magistrate Clerk | 304-264-1957 | 380 West South Street, Martinsburg, WV 25401 |
| Jefferson | Jefferson County Magistrate Clerk | 304-728-3233, ext. 342 | 110 North George Street, Charles Town, WV 25414 |
| Morgan | Morgan County Magistrate Clerk | 304-258-8631 | 77 Fairfax Street, Room 202, Berkeley Springs, WV 25411 |
Eastern Regional Jail Visitation Information
The current Eastern Regional Jail facility page links to an official WV DCR visitation document. Because schedules can change, call the facility before traveling even when you have reviewed the published schedule.

Visitation numbers: 304-267-0045 or 304-267-0048.

How to Send a Letter to an Eastern Regional Jail Inmate
WV DCR currently uses a centralized address for offender letters. Do not simply mail a personal letter to the physical Martinsburg facility address.
Current WV DCR letter format
Inmate First and Last Name + OID NumberEastern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility
PO Box 336
Phoenix, MD 21131
The sender must include a complete first and last name and full return address. WV DCR says initials are not sufficient.
Current WV DCR Calling and Video Visit Provider
WV DCR currently states that it contracts with GettingOut to provide offender calling and video visits.
Calling
Use the WV DCR service page to reach the current provider and support information. Avoid relying on an old phone-vendor link because correctional service vendors can change.
Video visits
WV DCR directs users to GettingOut’s website or mobile app for its current calling and video-visit service. Review the facility-specific visitation rules as well.
Why You May Not Find Someone in Eastern Regional Jail
A missing result does not automatically mean there was no arrest. Check the stage of custody and the type of record you need.
Processing may not be complete
A very recent arrest may not appear immediately where you expect. Recheck the official jail search or Daily Incarcerations rather than relying on a third-party result.
The person may no longer be in custody
After release, the current jail search may be less useful. Move to the appropriate court record if you need to follow the criminal case.
The person may be in another facility
Use the statewide jail search again. If the person moved into state-prison custody, switch to WV DCR’s separate prison search.
Check 94 vs. 38 Grapevine Road
Eastern Regional Jail and Martinsburg Correctional Center are separate facilities even though both are on Grapevine Road.
The case may continue without jail custody
A person can have an active criminal case after leaving jail. Use the magistrate or circuit-court search for later case information.
Verify the person carefully
Compare available identifiers and spelling. Do not identify someone from a similar name or booking photograph alone.
Eastern Regional Jail Address and Phone Number
The current WV DCR facility page lists the following contact information for Eastern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility.
Physical location
Eastern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility94 Grapevine Road
Martinsburg, WV 25405
Berkeley County
The physical jail address is not automatically the correct destination for inmate letters. WV DCR currently routes personal inmate letters through its centralized Phoenix, Maryland mailing address.
WV VINE Notifications for Victims
WV DCR operates Victim Information and Notification Everyday (VINE) for custody-status information and automatic notifications of qualifying offender-status changes.
Telephone access
Victims can call 1-866-WV4-VINE to obtain custody-status information or register for automated telephone notification.
Email and online registration
WV DCR also directs users to VINELink for online notification registration. The DCR notes that facility transfers are handled differently from some other status notifications.
Use Eastern Regional Jail Booking Information Carefully
Arrest and jail data can cause real harm when a person is misidentified or when an old booking record is presented as a current conviction. Verify the source and later court history before repeating a claim.
Before relying on a record
- Confirm the person using more than a similar name.
- Recheck current custody through WV DCR.
- Confirm whether Eastern Regional Jail is the correct facility.
- Use the proper county court for later case information.
- Do not describe a charge as a conviction.
Use the correct authority
- WV DCR: regional jail and prison custody.
- Arresting agency: police or sheriff incident records.
- WV Judiciary: magistrate and circuit court records.
- WV VINE: eligible victim custody notifications.
