Campbell County Detention Center Overview
Campbell County Adult Detention Center, often shortened to CCADC in jail materials, is a regional jail facility operated by the Blue Ridge Regional Jail Authority. It is not a standalone Campbell County Sheriff-run jail, even though many arrests begin with the Sheriff's Office, Altavista Police, Brookneal Police, Virginia State Police, or another local law-enforcement agency. BRRJA manages the custody side, the Campbell inmate roster link, inmate mail rules, inmate phone services, commissary access, and jail records for the facility.
The official facility page lists Campbell County Adult Detention Center at 90 Courthouse Lane, Rustburg, VA 24588, with mailing address P.O. Box 770, Rustburg, VA 24588. The listed phone number is 434-332-9583 and the fax number is 434-332-5187. The site administrator named on the inspected BRRJA page is Captain J. Lambert. BRRJA central administration is in Lynchburg, and some records or authority-wide questions may route there rather than to the Rustburg facility.

Campbell County Jail Capacity
Official capacity reporting for Campbell County Adult Detention Center must be read carefully because some state reports aggregate Campbell into the larger Blue Ridge Regional Jail Authority. A BRRJA planning-study request for proposal from 2022 said the Campbell facility was built in the 1950s and expanded in the early 2000s. It cited a Virginia Department of Corrections rated capacity of 77, while also stating that the facility had 137 available beds and 34 total staff.
The same planning material described the Campbell jail as a facility with operations resembling older jail procedures, insufficient inmate-cell space, and systems past serviceable life. It also said the building did not accommodate modern jail standards. Those are facility-condition findings from BRRJA planning materials, not a current daily population count. A 2020 PREA audit source reported 2019 average daily population at 121 and 2019 year-end confined population at 124, while the 2023 Virginia Jail Capacity Report listed Blue Ridge Regional Jail at the authority level with 692 permanent beds, 70 special-purpose beds, rated capacity 340, and annualized ADP 451.04.
State reporting noted maintenance refurbishment at the Bedford and Campbell facilities and said inmates from those jails were moved to Halifax, Amherst, and Lynchburg Adult Detention Centers during the reporting period. For that reason, a person tied to a Campbell County arrest may still need a BRRJA-wide custody check if the online Campbell roster is not enough.
Look Up CCADC Inmates
The correct starting point for a Campbell County Adult Detention Center inmate search is the official Campbell JailTracker roster linked from the BRRJA facility page. It is a public roster for local and regional jail custody. It is not the right system for every person with a Campbell County case. Sentenced state prisoners may appear in the Virginia Department of Corrections inmate and supervisee locator, while federal or immigration custody requires federal or ICE channels.
- Start at the BRRJA Campbell facility page and choose the inmate search link for CCADC.
- Search the JailTracker roster by last name, then add first name if the system prompts for a narrower search.
- Confirm that the matching person is connected to Campbell County Adult Detention Center or another BRRJA location.
- Review any visible booking number, charges, bond fields, facility field, court date, status, or release information.
- If the person does not appear, call CCADC at 434-332-9583, especially for recent arrests, transfers, or spelling uncertainty.
- For records not shown online, use BRRJA FOIA. For sheriff-created arrest or incident records, use the Campbell County Sheriff FOIA process.
JailTracker metadata found during research showed controls for name search, current-inmate status, released-since filtering, booking-number display, facility display, charges, warrant numbers, bond fields, and image hiding unless logged on. Those fields show what the roster software can support, but public profile display depends on BRRJA configuration and the status of the record.
Visit Campbell County Inmates
BRRJA visitation rules apply to Campbell County Adult Detention Center unless the facility posts a separate Campbell schedule. The public visitation page visible during research listed general BRRJA rules and schedules for some facilities, but a Campbell-specific schedule block was not located in the visible text. Visitors should confirm the current Campbell schedule directly with CCADC before travel. Visits can be delayed or canceled without notice because of operational needs.
| Facility or Rule | Schedule or Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Campbell County Adult Detention Center | Public Campbell schedule not located | Confirm with CCADC at 434-332-9583 before traveling. |
| Visitor list | Required | Name on ID must match the inmate visitation list. |
| Picture ID | Required | ID must not be damaged, torn, taped, or altered. |
| Visit frequency | Once per week | No more than three adult visitors at one time. |
| Former inmates | Six-month waiting period | Applies before visiting any BRRJA inmate. |

Visitors are subject to search. Cell phones, recording devices, and other electronics are not allowed in the visitation area unless approved by the Site Administrator. Personal belongings should be left in the vehicle. Clothing rules bar see-through clothing, tank tops, halter tops, tube tops, sleeveless tops or dresses, bathing suits, mini skirts, hats, headgear, hooded clothing, and jackets except for religious or medical head coverings that may require added security steps. Dresses, skirts, and shorts must be no shorter than three inches above the knee.
CCADC Mail Money Phone
Campbell County Adult Detention Center uses BRRJA's authority-wide mail, phone, commissary, and deposit systems. The most important mail rule is that personal letters do not go to the Rustburg jail address. Personal mail is sent to the Phoenix, Maryland scanning address, then delivered electronically to inmates through the tablet system. Legal mail, checks, and money orders do not use that Phoenix address.
| Service | Provider or Address | Rules and Fees |
|---|---|---|
| Personal mail | Facility Name / Inmate Name, Inmate # / P.O. Box 247 / Phoenix, MD 21131 | Scanned offsite and delivered electronically. Envelope must include facility name and state, inmate full name and identifier, and sender full name and physical address. |
| Legal mail | Handled separately from personal mail | Copied with the inmate witnessing, then copies are given to the inmate under BRRJA rules. |
| Phone calls | ViaPath / ConnectNetwork | Calls last up to 15 minutes. BRRJA lists collect, prepaid, and debit at $0.16 per minute and international at $0.50 per minute. |
| Funding fees | ConnectNetwork funding | BRRJA lists $5.95 by live agent and $2.95 by IVR or website. |
| Commissary | Oasis / JailCanteen | Food, drink, snacks, hygiene, clothing, postal, seasonal, and basket categories were documented. |
| Account deposits | JailATM | Official CCADC page links to JailATM. Specific JailATM fees were not located in BRRJA text. |
| Money orders | Mailed alone to the facility | Payable to BRRJA with inmate name after purchaser name. No cash, certified checks, personal checks, drop-offs, or letters enclosing money orders. |
BRRJA mail rules also limit pictures and paper items. Inmates may not receive or possess more than 10 pictures at one time. Pictures may not be Polaroids, framed, nude, revealing, or larger than 4 by 6 inches. Books, magazines, newspapers, pamphlets, mechanical greeting cards, stickers, glitter, crayons, envelopes, stamps, credit cards, phone cards, and calling cards are not accepted through personal mail.
Campbell County Booking Intake
A local arrest in Campbell County can begin with the Sheriff's Office, a town police department, Virginia State Police, or another agency, then move into BRRJA custody for intake at Campbell County Adult Detention Center or within the authority system. Intake generally creates or updates the jail-management record, verifies identity, inventories property, screens for medical and behavioral-health issues, classifies the person for housing and safety needs, and adds charges, warrants, bond details, or court dates as information becomes available.
The roster is most useful after staff have entered the person into JailTracker. A search soon after arrest may fail if the person is still with a magistrate, receiving medical attention, being fingerprinted, waiting for classification, or listed under a different spelling. A bond field on a roster profile, when visible, should still be confirmed through the jail, magistrate, or court because outside holds and no-bond orders can block release even when a money amount is shown.
Campbell County Jail Programs
BRRJA publishes an inmate programs page describing education, substance abuse, life skills, religious programs, DMV Connect, library services, pre-release, progressive release, re-entry, HEM, weekender, work release, and workforce programs. Program availability depends on eligibility, classification, conduct, staffing, and the facility's operational status. The programs are meant to support academic growth, self-awareness, responsibility, interpersonal skills, and reentry planning during custody.
Work release is described as a transition program for low-risk nonviolent offenders. BRRJA excludes people with sex crimes, gang affiliations, or active protective orders. Participants pay room and board and make payments toward child support, fines, court costs, or restitution. Workforce crews can support participating localities with landscaping, maintenance, snow removal, grounds keeping, janitorial work, painting, trash pickup, and similar work, with eligibility and good standing required.
Note: Confirm custody, visit approval, and the current Campbell schedule with CCADC before traveling to Rustburg.
Campbell County Jail Records
Public records for Campbell County Adult Detention Center are split by agency. BRRJA should be the first records route for jail custody, jail booking, JailTracker, inmate profile, and routine booking-photo questions because it operates the facility. The official BRRJA FOIA page names Patricia Stevens as FOIA Officer, lists 434-847-3100 ext. 1224, and gives foiarequest@brrja.state.va.us for requests.
Sheriff-created law-enforcement records route separately. The Campbell County Sheriff's Office handles law-enforcement service, warrants, civil process, courtroom security, community policing, and related local police functions, but it does not operate CCADC as a standalone jail. The Sheriff public records page names Rhonda Mason and lists 434-332-9580 for FOIA requests to the Sheriff's Office. Formal charges and dispositions belong with Virginia courts, not the jail roster. For current and past custody context, the main Campbell County jail inmate records page explains how the local roster, records request, VADOC, federal, and ICE channels fit together.
