Lookup Hodgeman County Jail Inmates

Hodgeman County Jail Overview

Hodgeman County Jail is operated by the Hodgeman County Sheriff's Office. The facility is listed at 500 Main Street, 3rd Floor, Jetmore, KS 67854, the same courthouse-related location used for several county offices on the official Hodgeman County site. The available official and high-authority sources describe a small local jail or short-term detention facility, not a separate large detention center. The Kansas Sheriffs' Association profile lists Sheriff Jared Walker and gives the office phone, jail administration phone, and sheriff phone as (620) 357-8391.

The facility holds local pretrial defendants, sentenced misdemeanants if held locally, municipal or city prisoners, out-of-county prisoners if accepted, and possibly federal, city, state, or DOC prisoners as allowed by Kansas county-jail law. Because the directory lists 0 female beds, female arrestees may be handled through temporary holding or transfer, but no official transfer agreement was located. Do not assume a specific destination for female prisoners without confirmation from the jail.

Hodgeman County Jail Capacity

The best sourced capacity figures come from the Kansas Sheriffs' Association Hodgeman County page. It lists 8 male beds, 0 female beds, 8 sworn staff, 6 support staff, a $35.00 daily board, and a $35.00 out-of-county inmate board. The Prison Policy Initiative correctional population dataset lists Hodgeman County Jail as a local facility with 3 persons in Census 2020 vintage data from 12/31/2013. No current daily jail count was located.

How to Search Hodgeman County Jail

No official online Hodgeman County Jail roster was located. That means the lookup method is direct contact plus public-record and downstream agency searches. Start with the jail for current local custody. If the person was released or transferred, ask for the release or transfer status. If the person has a filed court case, use Kansas CaseSearch. If the person was sentenced to KDOC, use KASPER. Federal and immigration custody use federal tools.

1. Call Hodgeman County Jail at (620) 357-8391 and ask for jail administration or custody status.
2. Give the full legal name, date of birth or age, arrest date, and arresting agency if known.
3. Ask whether the person is held locally, released, transferred, or held for another agency.
4. Submit a KORA request if a jail-book entry, booking sheet, bond line, or booking photo is needed.
5. Use Kansas CaseSearch, KASPER, BOP, or ICE ODLS only when the custody stage points there.

Hodgeman County Jail Contact

The sheriff's office is the practical contact for jail custody, records routing, visitation questions, mail questions, bond-status checks, and booking-photo requests. The county directory lists the sheriff email, fax, and phone. The Kansas Sheriffs' Association page lists the street and mailing addresses and uses the same phone number for office, jail administration, and sheriff contact.

Visiting Hodgeman County Jail

No official Hodgeman County Jail visitation schedule, video visitation vendor, lobby hours, dress code, or visitor entrance instruction was located. Call before traveling. The available directions place the jail and sheriff at the courthouse address in Jetmore, and the research notes that public entrance, parking, ADA entrance, elevator access, and after-hours intercom instructions were not published in the sources reviewed.

Mail and Money at Hodgeman Jail

No official inmate mailing format, commissary vendor, phone provider, tablet program, video vendor, kiosk, or online deposit link was located for Hodgeman County Jail. The page should not name a vendor without a local source. Call the jail before mailing letters, sending money, paying for phone time, or trying to schedule a video visit. Small jails often reject mail or funds that do not follow current local instructions.

Booking at Hodgeman County Jail

No local booking handbook was located. A Hodgeman County arrest normally leads to transport to the sheriff or an approved holding facility, identity confirmation, search, property inventory, paperwork, fingerprints, photographs if required, medical or mental-health screening, and a custody record. New bookings may not appear online because no public roster was located.

K.S.A. 19-1930 explains why medical screening can affect jail acceptance. A sheriff or jail keeper is not required to receive a person who appears unconscious, seriously ill, seriously injured, or seriously impaired until examination by a medical facility or health-care provider. The arresting agency remains responsible during that exam except as otherwise provided.

Hodgeman County Jail Records

Jail records should be requested from the sheriff when the needed information concerns custody, booking, arresting agency, bond as booked, release, transfer, or booking photos. Court records should be checked through Kansas CaseSearch or the district court clerk once a case is filed, and the Hodgeman County courthouse page is the local court source for address and hours. This split matters because a booking charge can change when the prosecutor files a complaint or information.

Directions to Hodgeman County Jail

The jail and sheriff's office are listed at 500 Main Street, 3rd Floor, Jetmore, KS 67854. Visitors approaching from the north or south generally use U.S. 283 into Jetmore. Visitors approaching from the west or east commonly use K-156, which intersects U.S. 283 in Jetmore, then proceed toward the courthouse block. Confirm the exact public entrance before arrival because no separate visitor entrance was published.

The official Hodgeman County site is useful for the local office directory and county context.

The county directory screenshot supports the local contact cluster used for jail, sheriff, court, and county office routing.

State and Federal Transfer Paths

No state prison, federal BOP institution, ICE detention center, or regional jail was found inside Hodgeman County. A person sentenced to KDOC custody will leave the local jail and appear in KASPER once the state record applies. A federal sentenced inmate appears in BOP systems. An immigration detainee is searched through ICE ODLS. A local detainer can still affect release from Hodgeman County Jail before the person moves to another agency.
