Latah County Jail Roster Overview

The Latah County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Richard Skiles, operates the county detention function from the Latah County Courthouse. The county jail is an adult male and female holding facility for adults charged with crimes awaiting trial, adults sentenced to local jail time, adults awaiting transport to the Idaho Department of Corrections, and other due process holds. The detention research says new bookings and releases occur 24 hours a day.

The official Latah sheriff page links to a jail roster PDF hosted by Nez Perce County. The inspected copy was a static list rather than a searchable profile database. It displayed a total count, report timestamp, page numbers, list numbers, and inmate names. It did not show mugshots, dates of birth, booking dates, charges, bond, court dates, housing, or release dates.

That narrow roster format matters. If a name appears, use the jail or court channels to confirm why the person is held. If a name does not appear, the person may have been released, transferred, booked under a different name, moved to state custody, or held outside the local roster.

Use the Latah County Inmate Roster

The roster is a PDF list, so it works differently from many jail search portals. There are no online search boxes, filters, profile pages, or clickable booking records in the inspected roster. A practical Latah County inmate search means opening the PDF, using the browser or PDF viewer's find function, then calling the jail if the list does not provide enough detail.

1. Open the official jail roster PDF linked from the Latah County Sheriff's Office.
2. Use the PDF viewer's find tool to search the last name, first name, or partial name.
3. Check the report timestamp, total count, page number, list number, and name format.
4. Call the jail at 208-882-2216 for current custody, charge, bond, or release questions.
5. Search iCourt when the question concerns filed charges, hearings, warrants, or case disposition.

Note: The roster is a custody snapshot, not a full booking packet, case file, or criminal-history record.

Latah County Jail Roster Fields

The Phase B instructions call for a search-field table when a portal has fields. Latah County's inspected roster does not have online fields, so the table below states the actual PDF access fields and limits found in the research. That is more accurate than inventing a search form the county does not provide.

What Latah County Inmate Records Show

The inspected roster has a minimal field set. It confirms that a name was listed in the PDF at the report time, but it does not provide the full details many users expect from a jail roster. For charge and hearing details, use iCourt. For custody notification, use VINE. For state prison, probation, or parole jurisdiction, use IDOC.

Latah County Jail Contact Card

The Latah County Jail, also described as the Latah County Detention Center, is in the courthouse basement. The detention page says the facility was built in 1972 and has a maximum holding capacity of 38 individuals. It houses people for the Latah County Sheriff's Office, Moscow Police Department, Idaho State Police, U.S. Marshals Service, Bureau of Prisons, Idaho Department of Corrections, various counties, and other agencies identified in the research.

IDOC Latah County Inmate Search

The Idaho Department of Correction resident/client search is separate from the Latah County jail roster. Use it when a person may be under IDOC jurisdiction, including prison, probation, or parole populations. The research notes that IDOC updates the database daily, but information can change quickly and may not show current content, location, status, scheduled termination date, or every detail.

IDOC is useful after transfer or sentencing, but it does not replace a Latah County jail roster check for current local custody.

Latah County VINE Notifications

Idaho VINE provides free and confidential custody-status and case-notification access. The Idaho Sheriffs' Association also describes VINE as a statewide jail and prison custody status and court-appearance notification service. Use VINE when the main need is notification rather than a static roster check.

VINE can help track custody changes after a roster check, especially when release or transfer timing is the main concern.

The Idaho Sheriffs' Association VINE service page is another official path explaining Idaho custody and court notification coverage.

The association source reinforces that VINE is statewide and should be used beside, not instead of, Latah County jail contact.

Latah County Booking and Bond

People held in the Latah County Jail may be awaiting trial, serving local jail time, awaiting transport to IDOC, or held for another due process reason. The detention page lists staffing for the facility and notes adult male and female custody. The research also states that booking takes roughly 30 minutes to an hour in ordinary circumstances. Release after bond paperwork can take another 30 minutes, depending on conditions at the jail and court.

Bond is handled through a court-to-sheriff process. Bring bail to the Court Clerk's Office first. The clerk gives a receipt to bring to the Sheriff's Office. After hours, bond can be posted at the Sheriff's Office front window. If cash is not available, a bondsman may be contacted. After court closes or on weekends, the research notes a $10 additional processing fee separate from the bond.

For filed charges and court dates, check iCourt or call the District Court clerk. For current custody and release timing, call the jail. Those are linked but separate records.

Latah County Jail Visitation Schedule

Visitation is appointment only. Visits last 20 minutes and are non-contact in a special visiting room. Adults must bring valid picture ID. Juveniles must be with a parent or legal guardian. A visitor must not have been incarcerated within the last 30 days, and a visitor on probation must have prior approval through the visitor's probation officer.

Latah County Inmate Mail Rules

Inmate mail must use the detention center address format. Write the inmate's name, Latah County Detention Center, 522 S Adams St., Suite 99, Moscow, Idaho 83843. The jail mail rules prohibit illegal items, contraband, food, medication, sexually explicit material, photographs of unclothed persons, paper clips, rubber bands, binder clips, stickers, and material that threatens witnesses, law enforcement, victims, or others.

Soft-bound books may be received through the mail if they come directly from a bookstore, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell's, Goodreads, or a similar source, and have not been altered. Inmates housed in another jail facility must have prior approval from both facilities before correspondence is allowed, and the correspondence must involve immediate family or a shared child.

Latah County Commissary and Phones

Inmates have access to telephones for outgoing collect calls only. The jail uses Telmate and GettingOut for phone or commissary account deposits. Accounts can be managed through GettingOut, by phone at 1-866-516-0115, or through the facility kiosk in the lobby of the Latah County Sheriff's Office. Money orders can be mailed if made out to the inmate. Personal checks are not allowed.

The detention research says inmates have access to telephones and a tablet within housing assignments and the library. Inmates can order extra food and toiletries from a commissary provider. Programs include Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, church services, and a GED program. Medical staff visit twice a week for sick call, while dental, eye exams, lab work, X-rays, and other procedures that cannot be handled inside the facility are handled by local providers.
