Questions about a current inmate, release, bond, booking record, photograph, warrant, or court case must go to the government office that holds the record. General questions about this private reference resource may be sent through its published contact channel. Please do not submit private identifying documents or urgent safety reports.

This is a private reference site, not a Guthrie County office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, obtain an official record, change a government file, or provide emergency help.


Choose the Right Record Source

Guthrie County does not publish an online jail roster, recent-booking feed, or booking-photo search. For present local custody, call the sheriff and jail directly. The office can also identify the correct custodian for a focused Iowa Chapter 22 request. No separate records-unit number, booking-photo email, public request form, fixed photo fee, or response deadline is posted.

  • For a mugshot or booking record, use the Home page request checklist, then contact the Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office.
  • For who was recently arrested, call the jail; the weekly news report is not a roster or booking log.
  • For a possible warrant, use the safe agency-and-court route on Wanted Fugitives.
  • For a filed charge or final result, search Iowa Courts Online or contact the appropriate clerk.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP or ICE locator.
