Labette County Jail Roster Overview
The Labette County inmate roster is the official local source for current jail custody. It is hosted on the Labette County Sheriff's Office website, costs nothing to view, and does not require a login. The public roster has current and released inmate views. The inspected roster also used booking-time sorting in the public URLs, which helps when the main issue is a new booking or a release that happened recently.
The county roster does not replace every other records system. It is for Labette County Jail custody, not a full Kansas criminal-history report, a court docket, a state prison population list, or a federal detainee search. If a person has been sentenced to KDOC custody, search KASPER. If the issue is federal prison, use the BOP inmate locator. If immigration detention is possible, use ICE ODLS and call the jail when a local hold is suspected.
Use the Labette County Inmate Roster
A roster search is most useful when the name is spelled correctly and the custody stage is known. Very recent arrests may not appear until booking data has been entered and approved for public display. The sheriff's site does not publish the roster refresh interval, so a phone check is appropriate when the arrest is new, the name is uncertain, or a release decision is urgent.
- Open the sheriff's current inmate roster and scan the listed entries.
- If the person is not current, open the released roster sorted by booking time.
- Open the inmate profile instead of relying only on the list row.
- Compare the profile's booking number, booking date, arresting agency, charges, and bond fields.
- Call 620-795-2565 if custody status, bond, or a possible hold needs confirmation.
The sheriff's current inmate roster is shown in the capture below. It is the best first stop for current Labette County jail records.
The roster page is a custody tool, so profile data should be checked against the court portal before treating a booking charge as a filed court charge.
Labette County Roster Search Fields
The inspected Labette County roster did not show a separate text search field in the public HTML. Instead, it presented current and released lists, sort/filter URLs, and profile links. That difference matters. A user may need to review the list and open the profile rather than expecting a last-name search box.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current Inmates | Tab/filter | No | Shows people now in Labette County custody. |
| Released Inmates | Tab/filter | No | Shows released entries. The retention window was not published. |
| Sort by Booking Time | URL/filter | No | Useful for recent bookings and recent releases. |
| Inmate Profile Link | Roster link | No | Opens a detailed record for a named person. |
| Name Search Field | Not visible | Not applicable | The inspected page used lists and filters, not a separate text box. |
What a Labette County Inmate Profile Shows
A Labette County inmate profile can include both identifying and case-lead details. Some fields may be absent, delayed, or limited by Kansas law, agency policy, juvenile confidentiality, medical privacy, sealing, expungement, or safety issues. Bond amounts also can change after court review or be affected by a hold from another agency.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking Number | The booking identifier tied to the jail entry. |
| Booking Date | The date, or date and time, of intake when posted. |
| Name and Demographics | Name, age, gender or sex, and race when shown on the profile. |
| Mugshot | Booking photo when the public roster displays one. |
| Charges | Booking charge descriptions. Filed court charges may differ later. |
| Bond | Bond amount or hold information when entered by the jail. |
| Arresting Agency | The agency tied to the arrest or booking record. |
| Release / Status | Current or released roster placement, and release details when supplied. |
For booking photos and photo access limits, see the Labette County jail mugshots page.
Labette County Records Fallbacks
When the roster does not answer a custody question, use a sequence that matches the type of record needed. For a current custody question, call the jail and sheriff at 620-795-2565. For an older booking record, booking photo, incident report, or corrected jail record, use the county open-records request process under the Kansas Open Records Act. For a court charge, hearing, disposition, or warrant tied to a case, use the Kansas district court portal or the Labette County District Court Clerk.
Record path: Roster for custody, jail phone for same-day status, KORA request for older jail records, court portal for filed charges.
Records requests should be narrow. A useful request names the person, gives the booking date if known, lists the booking number if the roster showed one, and states the exact record sought. Labette County's official open-records request PDF is the local county channel, while K.S.A. 45-216, 45-217, 45-220, and 45-221 provide the Kansas law behind access and exemptions. Broad requests can take longer, cost more, or be limited if they include protected information.
County, State, Federal Custody
Each lookup system covers a different custody stage. The county jail roster covers pretrial detainees, local sentenced jail time, trustees, and people held for local or agency reasons when accepted. KASPER covers Kansas Adult Supervised Population Electronic Repository records for KDOC-funded or KDOC-operated programs. BOP and ICE searches are separate because federal prison and immigration detention are not ordinary Labette County jail records.
| Custody Question | Where to Look | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Current county jail custody | Labette County sheriff roster | Local booking and jail status |
| Recent release | Released roster, then jail phone | Release entries may be posted after current custody ends |
| Sentenced Kansas prison custody | KASPER | KDOC custody starts after transfer into the state system |
| Federal sentence | BOP inmate locator | Federal prison records are not county jail records |
| Immigration detention | ICE ODLS | ICE search uses A-number or biographical data |
| Notifications | VINELink | Custody and release alerts where data is available |
The Kansas KASPER search is shown below. It is the right place to move when a Labette County defendant has been sentenced into Kansas Department of Corrections custody rather than remaining in the county jail.
KASPER can show prison and supervision records, but its disclaimer says it is not a substitute for a KBI criminal-history record search.

Booking Process in Labette County
Labette County's official source gives facility layout and booking volume rather than a minute-by-minute intake manual. A defensible local sequence is arrest by a deputy, city officer, state officer, or outside agency; transport through the jail's Sally port; handoff to jail staff; identification; search; property inventory; booking photo; fingerprints; medical or mental-health screening; entry into the jail system; charge and bond entry when available; classification; and housing assignment.
The jail's physical layout supports that intake work. The sheriff identifies male and female areas, patrol holding cells, contract rooms, trustee rooms, a padded cell, isolation cells, a detox room, a KBI/SANE room, a Sally port, a video visitation room, and an exercise room. New bookings may not post online until the record is entered and cleared for public display.
Booking volume gives that process real scale. The sheriff reported 983 people brought into the jail in 2024, an average population of 64 inmates, 836 transports, and 102,509 transport miles. Those figures show that inmate records are not just static list entries. A Labette County jail record may sit inside a larger chain of arrest, medical screening, court movement, transport, bond review, release, transfer, or sentence.
Labette County Visitation Records
Labette County uses NCIC for video visitation scheduling. The sheriff's visitation page should be treated as the controlling source for current limits. Both remote and on-site video visits are documented in the research, and visits can be limited or denied for rule violations, lockdown, classification, discipline, or operational needs.
| Visit Type | Scheduling | Rule / Note |
|---|---|---|
| On-site video visit | NCIC Labette scheduling portal | Verify current slots through NCIC before travel. |
| Remote video visit | NCIC account and schedule | Vendor-set fees may apply. |
| Attorney or professional visit | Call the jail | Professional visits may use separate handling from social visits. |
The sheriff's Facility Visitation page is shown below. It is the local source to check before scheduling video visitation.
The image reinforces that Labette County routes visitation through official sheriff and NCIC channels, not through unofficial search pages.
Mail, Phone, and Commissary
Mail, phone, and money tools are related to jail records because the wrong custody status can lead to wrong-facility deposits or failed contact attempts. Use the sheriff's inmate mail page for the current mail format and prohibited item rules. Use the sheriff's NCIC phone and video links for communication. For commissary and account funds, use the sheriff's commissary and account funds page and the official Tiger Commissary Labette County portal.
| Service | Channel | Practical Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sheriff inmate-mail page | Use the inmate's full name and official jail mail rules. | |
| Phone and video | NCIC | Use sheriff-linked vendor pages to avoid wrong accounts. |
| Commissary | Tiger Commissary | Labette County, Kansas is preselected in the official portal URL. |
| Account funds | NCIC and sheriff-linked options | Confirm current custody before sending money. |
Note: Confirm custody with the jail before sending funds, because release or transfer can make an online deposit hard to correct.
