Sheriff Robert J. McCabe

Welcome to the official website of the Norfolk Sheriff’s Office. We are a 1,200 inmate facility with a staff of nearly 500 sworn and civilian employees.

As the largest jail in Virginia, we strive to ensure safety and security of our inmates and employees 24/7.

We understand that having a friend or loved one who is incarcerated can be a difficult time, but in most cases, your questions about mail, visitation, phone calls and more can be found here on our website.
