Bingham County Jail Roster Overview
Bingham County has had an official roster path in the past, but direct inspection on June 8, 2026 found the old official URL redirecting to a current county page that returned a 404. Do not rely on stale roster snippets as proof that a person is currently in the Bingham County Jail.
The Bingham County Sheriff's Office operates the jail. County jail records cover adult local arrests, local charges lodged by other agencies, booking status, and related jail records. Sentenced felony custody belongs to the Idaho Department of Correction, federal sentenced custody belongs to BOP, immigration detention belongs to ICE, and Fort Hall-area tribal custody may require direct tribal-police confirmation.
How to Find Someone in the Bingham County Jail
Use the phone and records chain in the order that matches the situation. For a current custody question, the inmate information line is more direct than a public-records request. For copies, photos, or reports, use the records process.
The sheriff department list at binghamid.gov/departments/sheriff/sheriff-departments publishes the detention booking, command, inmate information, dispatch, and records numbers used in this lookup path.
Those separate phone lines matter because Bingham County did not have a working public roster available during the research inspection.
- Call Detention Inmate Information at (208) 782-3057 for current custody status.
- Call Detention Booking at (208) 782-3055 if the arrest just happened or intake may still be underway.
- Call Detention Command at (208) 782-3076 for jail-administration questions that the information line cannot answer.
- Call Records at (208) 782-3082 or submit the sheriff/Blackfoot Police records form for booking records, reports, or photos.
- Search IDOC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, or Fort Hall/tribal police if the person is not in county custody.
Bingham County Roster Search Fields
No live official roster form was available to inspect, so no current field labels should be represented as official. The table below shows the practical information to gather before calling detention or filing a records request.
| Information | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full name | Caller/request detail | Strongly recommended | Include aliases or prior names when known. |
| Date of birth | Caller/request detail | Recommended | Helps avoid false matches. |

| Arresting agency | Caller/request detail | Optional | Important for Shelley, Aberdeen, Blackfoot, tribal, or state-police cases. |
What a Bingham County Inmate Profile Shows
Because the current public profile could not be inspected, request specific record components rather than assuming an online profile has every detail.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking sheet | Administrative intake record, subject to disclosure limits. |
| Booking date/time | When the person was entered into jail custody. |
| Arresting agency | The sheriff, city police, state police, tribal, federal, or other agency connected to the arrest. |
| Charges or holds | Booking charges, warrants, detainers, or holds that may differ from court charges. |
| Bond or release status | Information the jail or court can disclose about bond, release, transfer, or no-bond holds. |
| Booking photograph | Request as a specific photo record if no official online photo is available. |
Finding County, State, and Federal Inmates
Bingham County Jail is the starting point for new local arrests. The IDOC Resident/Client Search is the correct tool for people under Idaho correctional jurisdiction, including incarcerated, probation, parole, and some discharged records. The BOP locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to present, while ICE detainee resources cover immigration custody.
The BOP locator is a separate federal search tool and does not replace the county detention phone lines for a local arrest.
If BOP shows no federal custody, the person may still be in county, state, tribal, immigration, supervised-release, or another law-enforcement system.
| Custody | Where to Look |
|---|---|
| Pretrial or local Bingham County custody | Bingham County Detention Inmate Information and sheriff records |
| Sentenced state custody | Idaho Department of Correction Resident/Client Search |
| Federal sentenced custody | Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator |
| Immigration detention | ICE detainee resources and ICE contact center |

Booking Process in Bingham County
The sheriff's detention page says the jail division books and houses adults arrested within Bingham County or by other agencies on local charges. Intake usually involves identification, paperwork, property handling, screening, and classification. Idaho Code section 20-602 requires objective inmate classification tied to safety and facility security.
Formal court charges may lag behind booking. A jail booking charge can be based on arrest paperwork, a warrant, or a hold; the prosecutor later decides what charges to file in court.
Visitation Hours and Rules
No current Bingham County Jail visitation schedule, video-visitation vendor, mail format, commissary vendor, or money-deposit system was published in the official sources located. Call before scheduling a visit or sending money.

| Video visits | Vendor not published | Call detention before paying any vendor |
| Mail format | Not published | Ask for current name and booking-number format |
| Attorney visits | Not published | Call command or jail administration |
How to Contact a Bingham County Inmate
Ask the jail before sending mail, books, property, funds, or scheduling calls. The inspected sources did not identify a phone provider, tablet provider, publisher-only book rule, or deposit vendor. If the person has transferred to IDOC, use IDOC mail, phone, and visiting policies instead of county jail assumptions.
Commissary and Inmate Funds
No official Bingham County commissary or deposit vendor was found. Confirm custody, eligibility, accepted payment methods, and fees directly with detention before sending money.
Note: Verify the person is still in Bingham County Jail before paying a vendor or traveling for a visit.
