Search Washington County Jail Inmates

Washington County Jail is the county adult jail for Washington County, Idaho. To look up inmates at Washington County Jail, use the official current-custody roster first, then call the jail or file a sheriff records request when a public row does not show enough detail. The facility holds local pretrial detainees, short-sentence jail inmates, and some agency holds, but state prison, federal prison, and immigration detention searches may require separate locators.

Washington County Jail Overview

Washington County Jail is operated by the Washington County Sheriff's Office. The PREA audit classifies it as a county jail, not a military, private, municipal, state, or federal facility. Its mission was described as providing a secure place to house adults accused or convicted of criminal acts and civil violations. The jail sits in downtown Weiser near the county courthouse and sheriff's office. It is the primary local custody point for arrests by the sheriff's office, Weiser Police Department, Idaho State Police, and other agencies serving Washington County.

The facility map found no separate Washington County work-release building, annex, municipal jail, IDOC prison, BOP prison, or ICE detention center. That means Washington County Jail is the facility page that matters for local custody. A person who is sentenced to Idaho prison moves out of the county-jail search path and into IDOC records. A person in federal or immigration custody may need BOP or ICE tools even if a Washington County arrest or hold appears in the local history.


Washington County Jail Capacity

The Washington County Jail 2017 PREA audit listed 49 designated beds and 35 people in custody on the audit date. It also listed 549 admissions in the previous 12 months, 295 admissions that lasted 30 days or more, and 253 admissions that lasted 72 hours or more. The adult age range observed was 18 to 73, and youthful inmates under 18 were listed as none. The official Zuercher roster query returned 59 current-inmate records on June 8, 2026, but that roster count should not be treated as certified average daily population.

The roster system includes offsite and agency-hold categories, so a current record count above the old capacity number is a cue to verify, not a final overcrowding finding. Washington County did not publish a current certified ADP or capacity dashboard in the official sources reviewed.


Look Up Washington County Jail Inmates

The correct public lookup for Washington County Jail is the official Zuercher In Custody portal linked by the county jail page. It is current-inmate oriented and defaults to today's custody. The public table shows limited fields, so it should be used as the first step, not the only step. If a search row lacks charges, bond, photo, cell block, or held-for-agency detail, call the jail or use the Sheriff's Records Request Form.

  1. Open the In Custody portal and search by name.
  2. Use race, sex, arrest date, release date, cell block, or held-for-agency filters only if the name search is too broad.
  3. Record the exact name spelling and arrest date where shown.
  4. Call Washington County Jail at 208-414-2124 for current release, bond, or transfer questions.
  5. Use IDOC, BOP, ICE, or VINELink when the person is no longer in local county custody.

The public roster configuration exposes local housing and routing labels, although sampled public rows often returned blank cell-block values. Washington County Jail options include WCJ - BOOKING, WCJ - REC, WCJ - SILD, WCJ - OFF SITE, and WCJ - POD 100 through POD 600. The configuration also includes ACSO Jail blocks and CCJF hold-offsite blocks.

The county sources do not publish which pods hold men, women, medical, protective custody, or classification groups.

Washington County Jail Booking

Booking follows arrest or transfer into local custody. Staff verify identity, paperwork, property, search procedures, intake screening, booking data, and housing placement. The public roster may eventually expose name, race, sex, arrest date, release date, and some internal fields. The PREA audit confirms intake/orientation and PREA education procedures, and the 2021 PREA report says inmates receive multiple ways to report sexual abuse or harassment.

Release can happen by court order, bond, sentence completion, transfer, dismissal, or movement to IDOC, another county, federal custody, or immigration detention. Washington County does not publish a detailed bond desk page, so call the jail and check iCourt before posting money. A hold or detainer can prevent release even if bond exists on the local case.


Washington County Jail PREA Records

The 2017 PREA audit and 2021 PREA coordinator report provide the strongest public detail on jail conditions and reporting. The audit documented zero-tolerance PREA policy, staff and volunteer training, inmate education, and corrective actions for blind spots. It also noted that Rose Advocates was identified as a 24/7 rape crisis center partner in the audit discussion. The 2021 PREA coordinator annual report listed two sexual-abuse allegations, both determined unfounded, and stated that policies and procedures were effective for monitoring, preventing, detecting, and responding.

Note: Confirm custody, visit status, and communication rules with Washington County Jail before traveling or sending funds.
