Jefferson County Jail Roster Overview
The official Jefferson County inmate search is operated through the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office inmate search. It covers people currently in custody at the Jefferson County Detention Center, the sheriff-run county jail in Hillsboro. The roster states that in-custody inmates are listed with booking dates, charges, and added information, and the results are sorted by booking date. A name filter lets a user narrow the booking cards without logging in or paying a search fee.
The same sheriff roster points to a separate released-inmates page for people released within the last 72 hours. That short release window matters. A person who bonded out, completed a short sentence, transferred to another agency, or moved into state custody may stop appearing on the current roster even though a court case or arrest report still exists. The roster is a custody tool first. It is not a full criminal-history file, a final court docket, or a statewide prison list.
The sheriff roster should be read beside the other Jefferson County record channels. Sheriff Dave Marshak's office lists the jail information line as 636-797-5081. Sheriff records requests for reports use the records process at 400 First Street, and Sunshine Law questions go to the listed custodian. Missouri VINE supplies custody notification. Sentenced state prisoners are searched through the Missouri Department of Corrections, while federal and immigration custody use separate federal locators.
The sheriff roster screenshot at the official inmate search page shows the name filter, VINE notice, released-inmates link, and booking-card layout used for Jefferson County inmate records.
The image matches the main access point for current county custody, not state, federal, or immigration detention records.
Use the Jefferson County Roster
A basic Jefferson County inmate record search needs a name. The public form has one visible text field labeled "Filter by Name," so spelling and name order can affect results. If the person uses a middle name, alias, or shortened first name, try the broadest version first. The roster cards are dynamic, and the public API behind the page uses pagination, so a missing result should be checked again with fewer letters before moving to another system.
- Open the sheriff's in-custody roster and confirm that it is the current custody page, not the 72-hour release page or a court portal.
- Enter part or all of the first or last name in "Filter by Name." The displayed booking cards narrow as the text changes.
- Review each matching card by name, booking photo when one is present, and booked date. Newer bookings are sorted by booking date.
- Open the inmate profile for the detail record. The profile may show sex, race, year of birth, booked date, charges, case number, next court date, status, bond amount when greater than zero, and action buttons.
- If the person is not listed, check the sheriff's released page, Missouri VINE, MODOC Offender Search, BOP, ICE, or the Jefferson County records request channel based on the case stage.
The profile action buttons are useful only when the person is in the right custody status. "Web Deposit" routes to Access Corrections for commissary funds, and "Phone Cards" routes toward IC Solutions. Before money is sent, confirm that the person is still in the Jefferson County Detention Center and has not been released, transferred, or moved to Missouri DOC custody.
Jefferson County Roster Fields
The Jefferson County sheriff search page is simpler than many jail systems. It does not publish a public advanced-search form for booking number, facility, charge type, age range, or date range. The detail profile uses an internal ID in the URL, and the released page has its own page limit in the data feed, but those are not ordinary user search fields. The practical search path is name first, then profile detail, then fallback channels.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Filter by Name | Text input | Optional | Single visible filter on the sheriff page; filters booking cards by name. |
| Released page limit | API parameter | Optional/internal | The released feed uses a limit value in the page source; the public page lists releases within the last 72 hours. |
| Page offset/limit | API pagination | Optional/internal | The current roster feed returns offset, limit, total, and next or previous page offsets behind the visible card list. |
| Inmate ID | URL/API parameter | Required for profile | Detail pages use inmate.php?id= and the public profile API uses an id value. |
When the name search does not find a record, do not assume the person was never booked. Recent releases, misspellings, aliases, state sentences, medical refusal at intake, municipal filing delays, federal custody, and sealed or juvenile limits can all change where the record appears. The sheriff's MobilePatrol app page describes safety information, news, and critical alerts, but the researched page did not verify an app-only inmate roster or mugshot search.
Jefferson County Inmate Profile Fields
The inmate profile is the most detailed public custody record tied to the Jefferson County roster. It is still a jail record, so it carries intake and custody data rather than a full court history. Missouri Case.net is the better place for filed court events once the prosecutor or municipal division has opened the case. The roster may show a case number such as a Jefferson County criminal case reference, but court status can lag behind booking.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| ID | Internal roster and profile identifier used in the detail page URL and public API. |
| Name | First, middle, and last name fields, with the profile heading using public name data. |
| Mugshot / Pic | Booking photo file when one exists; otherwise the profile can show a no-image placeholder. |
| Sex and race | Public demographic values displayed on the profile. |
| Year of birth | The inspected roster field showed year only, not full date of birth. |
| Arrest or booking date | The intake date and time shown as the booked date on the profile. |
| Release date | Current detainees may show an in-custody value in the data feed rather than a past release date. |
| Charges and case number | Charge table entries with charge text, case number, next court date when populated, and status. |
| Bond amount | Total bond amount displayed only when the amount is greater than zero in the profile data. |
| Not shown | Housing unit, full DOB, fingerprints, arresting agency, height, weight, and detailed court minutes were not visible in the public profile template. |
The sheriff's sample inmate profile format shows how Jefferson County inmate records place the photo area beside demographic, booking, charge, bond, and action-button fields.
The profile layout helps separate jail custody data from court data, because the charge table can point to a case number while the final docket remains in Case.net.
County, State, Federal Custody
Jefferson County inmate records split by custody system. The county roster covers people held at the Jefferson County Detention Center, including pretrial detainees, warrant or capias detainees, sentenced county-correctional-facility prisoners, and people awaiting transfer or release. A person sentenced to Missouri state prison moves into the Missouri Department of Corrections system and should be searched through MODOC Offender Search, not the sheriff roster. Federal sentenced prisoners use the BOP inmate locator, and immigration custody uses ICE's Online Detainee Locator System.
| Custody Type | Where to Search | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Jefferson County jail custody | Jefferson County sheriff roster | Current county detainees, local sentences, warrant holds, and people recently booked. |
| Released within 72 hours | Jefferson County released page | Recent releases that no longer appear in current custody results. |
| State prison or supervision | Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Search | Active offenders, probationers, parolees, and sentenced state prisoners. |
| Federal prison | Federal Bureau of Prisons locator | Federal prisoners in BOP custody and many federal records after 1982. |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | ICE custody searched by A-number and country or biographical information. |
| Custody notification | Missouri VINE | Victim and custody-status notification, also available by phone at 877-654-8463. |
Custody distinction: A county jail booking is not proof that the person is in state prison, and a state prison locator result is not a current Jefferson County jail booking.
Jefferson County Jail Facility
Official facility research resolves to one local detention facility for this county. The Jefferson County Detention Center is operated by the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and is the county jail tied to the public roster. No separate county annex, work-release building, Missouri DOC adult institution, BOP institution, or ICE detention facility was located inside Jefferson County in the official facility lists checked.
Jefferson County Detention Center
510 First Street
Hillsboro, MO 63050
636-797-5081
Video visits may be scheduled daily from 7 AM to 9 PM, with blocked times noted by the sheriff.
The sheriff and Justice Center public address is 400 First Street in Hillsboro, phone 636-797-5000. Jail mail and facility routing use the detention center address. For facility-level rules, capacity history, and visitor arrival details, the Jefferson County Detention Center page is the local facility reference.
Jefferson County Booking Records
After an arrest by deputies or a municipal police agency, the person may be transported to the Jefferson County Detention Center if accepted for county custody. Intake creates the booking record. The roster fields show the kind of information captured at that stage: name, year of birth, race, sex, arrest or booking time, release or incarcerated status, mugshot when available, charge text, case number, next court date, and status. Missouri law also matters at intake. RSMo 221.040 allows the sheriff or jailer to require medical examination before accepting a person who appears seriously ill, seriously injured, unconscious, or medically unsafe for jail admission.
Booking comes before many court events. A roster charge may be based on an arrest, warrant, or initial booking entry, while the filed court case may appear later in Case.net after prosecutor review. The Jefferson County Municipal Court page states that a case appears in Show-Me Courts or Case.net after the prosecutor has reviewed and filed charges. That is why a jail profile may exist before a court docket is easy to find.
- Booking
- The jail intake record created when a person is processed into custody.
- Capias warrant
- A court order directing that a person be taken into custody.
- Bond
- Money or security set for release when the court allows it.
- Detainer
- A hold or request from another agency that can affect release.
- DOC
- The Missouri Department of Corrections, the state prison and supervision agency.
Jefferson County Visitation Rules
Jefferson County uses The Visitor video visitation system through ICSolutions. The sheriff page says all adult visitors must register at no cost. Visits may be onsite at video terminals in the facility visitation center or offsite by computer, Android device, or iOS device. The ICSolutions facility page notes that offsite visits can involve device testing, mobile apps, and fees, and that internet connectivity problems during offsite visits are not refunded.
| Visit Rule | Jefferson County Detail | Source Context |
|---|---|---|
| Onsite video | Uses video terminals in the facility visitation center. | ICSolutions facility page. |
| Offsite video | Uses a personal Windows computer, Android, or iOS device. | ICSolutions and sheriff visitation pages. |

The sheriff visitation page shows the daily schedule, attorney visit rules, blocked visit windows, and ICSolutions routing for Jefferson County detainees.
Visit access is tied to current custody, so a roster check should come before scheduling or paying for an offsite session.
Mail, Money, Records Requests
Mail, money, and phone access are handled through separate jail service rules. Incoming non-privileged mail must be postcards, with the detained person's legal name, detainee number, housing unit, institution name and address, and a complete sender return address.
