Lookup Pend Oreille County Corrections Inmates

Pend Oreille County Corrections Overview

Pend Oreille County Corrections is operated by the Pend Oreille County Sheriff's Office. Official county sources also use name variants such as Pend Oreille County Correctional Facility, Pend Oreille County Jail, and Pend Oreille County Corrections Facility. The facility is a local adult county jail, not a state prison, federal prison, or ICE detention center.

The jail houses male and female inmates who are sentenced or awaiting trial. The county also states that it houses inmates from other agencies and maintains contracts with Washington DOC, Bureau of Indian Affairs, Border Patrol, immigration, and U.S. Customs Enforcement. Those contracts matter for lookup work because a person can pass through local Pend Oreille County Corrections custody before transfer to a state, federal, tribal, or immigration channel.

The county corrections page is the source for the facility description, address, services list, and roster path.

The same county corrections section links outward to bail, court appearances, commissary, mail, phone, property, medical care, and visiting rules.

Pend Oreille Corrections Population

Two official capacity figures need careful wording. The county corrections page describes Pend Oreille County Corrections as a 40-bed facility. WASPC CY2024 jail statistics list 36 facility beds for the Pend Oreille County Sheriff's Office. The same WASPC row reports an average daily population of 15.58, 384 annual admissions, an average length of stay of 17 days, and no reported in-custody deaths for CY2024.

The inspected July 2, 2026 current inmate list showed 19 total housed inmates, and the booking report for the 24-hour reporting window showed two bookings. Those are daily report figures, not a long-term capacity study. The WASPC spreadsheet is the better source for annual population context, while the Daily Press PDFs show local roster status for a specific day.

Lookup Pend Oreille Corrections Inmates

The correct first lookup for Pend Oreille County Corrections is the official Daily Press Box folder. It is a folder of dated PDFs, not a searchable database page. Use the current inmate list for people housed at the jail and use the booking report for new intake events, booking numbers, charge descriptions, statutes, and related incident numbers.

1. Open the county's Daily Press folder from the sheriff or corrections page.
2. Select the newest "Inmate List" PDF to check current local custody at Pend Oreille County Corrections.
3. Use the PDF viewer find tool for a name, booking number, location code, or other visible text.
4. Open the newest "Jail Booking" PDF when the question is about a recent arrest or intake charge.
5. If the person is no longer listed, check jail phone contact, sheriff records requests, Washington DOC, BOP, ICE, or VINE based on the custody path.

The current list can show name, booking number, location, time incarcerated, and scheduled release. The booking report can show booking date and time, name number, age, city, booking type, booked-by field, charge class, statute, description, and related incident. Charges on a booking report should be checked against court records when a formal case has been filed.

Pend Oreille Corrections Contact

Use the main jail phone line for immediate custody, visiting, bail, and release questions. Public-records questions should follow the sheriff records request path when the needed document is not in the Daily Press folder. The county courthouse, District Court, and Superior Court Clerk are nearby in Newport, but court records and jail records remain separate systems.

Sheriff Glenn Blakeslee is listed in the county directory, and the sheriff's office main address matches the corrections address. The county's inmate mail format uses a separate P.O. Box for inmate correspondence, so do not use the sheriff office mailing address for personal jail mail.

Visit Pend Oreille Corrections

Visitation at Pend Oreille County Corrections is in-person and limited to two evenings each week. Visitors sign up in the Sheriff's Office lobby before visits begin, and all members of a visiting party must check in together. Each visitor needs valid government-issued picture identification with full name, date of birth, photo, and current expiration date. Copies and expired IDs are not accepted.

The county visitation page lists the schedule, sign-up rules, visitor identification standards, minor rules, contraband limits, and denial reasons.

The county's visiting rules also control when money may be dropped off for an inmate account.

Weapons, purses, backpacks, cell phones, cameras, lighters, heavy clothing, and items that could conceal contraband are not allowed in the visiting area. Metal detector checks apply. Visiting can also be denied for intoxication, no-contact orders, prior contraband, outstanding warrants, active probation for violent crime or drug offenses, refusal to cooperate, or other safety risks.

Mail Phone and Money

Mail at Pend Oreille County Corrections has a specific inmate address format. Incoming mail is opened and inspected for money and contraband, and it may be scanned. Legal mail may be opened in front of the inmate for contraband review. The jail does not deliver mail on weekends or holidays, and incoming mail is normally distributed within 24 hours after receipt.

Friends and family cannot access the inmate's commissary account online through the county's current commissary provider. Money orders should not be made payable to the inmate. The envelope should identify which inmate the money is meant for. If the inmate is released before commissary is delivered, the county's published rules control pickup, holding, destruction, or distribution.

Booking at Pend Oreille Corrections

Booking at Pend Oreille County Corrections creates the local custody record that later appears in the Daily Press files. The booking report can show booking date and time, booking type, booking number, name number, age, city, booked-by staff, charge class, statute, description, and related incident. The current inmate list then shows where the person is housed or held, using local jail location codes.

The county property and medical pages add practical intake details. Only a limited amount of property is accepted for inmate storage, and property not accepted by the jail may be impounded by the arresting agency. Prescription medication must be in original, current, labeled containers. Medical staff from Newport Community Hospital support an in-house clinic, and medications are normally dispensed four times a day.

First appearances are scheduled each working business day and most Sundays. District Court handles felony first appearances and misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor matters, while Superior Court handles felony docket matters. Once a person is sentenced to state prison and transferred, the Washington DOC locator becomes the correct search source instead of the county jail list.

Pend Oreille Custody Channels

The facility is a county jail with outside-agency contract relationships. That distinction prevents a common search mistake. A person physically held at Pend Oreille County Corrections may appear in the county list. A person transferred to state prison belongs in DOC search. A person in federal or ICE custody may need a national locator or direct agency contact.

Federal and ICE locators are not mugshot galleries. Pend Oreille County's public inmate list and booking PDFs did not show booking photos in the inspected files. Use the Pend Oreille County inmate records page for a fuller roster field breakdown.

About Pend Oreille Corrections

The county corrections page describes jail operations as coordinated with Superior and District Courts. Pend Oreille Counseling Services and the Pend Oreille Sheriff's Chaplain Corp enter the facility regularly. Medical staff from Newport Community Hospital provide in-house clinic support, and inmates can request clinic appointments through medical request forms.

No separate municipal jail, county jail annex, county work-release building, state prison, BOP facility, or ICE detention center was identified in official Pend Oreille County sources. Washington DOC's locations list does not show a state prison in Pend Oreille County, and ICE's Washington facility source points to the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma. For the local jail population, Pend Oreille County Corrections is the core facility.
