Lewis County Jail Roster Status
No official Lewis County Idaho online inmate roster was located on the county site. The official sheriff page gives staff and contact information, but it does not publish a current detention-facility capacity, a live booking list, a housing-location roster, a visitation vendor, or a jail status feed. That means an online search for Lewis County inmates should not rely on roster pages from Lewis County, Washington, Lewis County, Missouri, or other jurisdictions.
The local custody access path starts with the Lewis County Sheriff's Office. Sheriff Jason Davis is listed at jdavis@lewiscountyid.org, Chief Deputy Mark Pagliaro at mpagliaro@lewiscountyid.org, and Lead Dispatch Supervisor Rhonda Beauchamp at rbeauchamp@lewiscountyid.org. The sheriff office is at 510 Oak Street, Room #5, Nezperce, Idaho 83543, phone (208) 937-2447, fax (208) 937-9235. In an emergency, call 911.
The source view from the Lewis County Sheriff's Office page reflects the official local starting point for Lewis County inmate records, custody questions, and sheriff incident-report requests.
Because the county did not publish a web roster, the sheriff contact block carries more weight than a missing inmate search box.
Lewis County Inmate Search Channels
Lewis County inmate lookup has several official channels, but each one answers a different question. The sheriff can answer local custody and booking questions. The sheriff records request form can be used for incident reports and booking-related records not displayed online. The Idaho Department of Correction Resident/Client Search covers people in IDOC custody, probation, or parole. Idaho VINE provides custody and criminal-case notifications. The Idaho State Police sex offender registry is a separate public-safety registry and is not a jail roster.
| Channel | Use It For | What to Know |
|---|---|---|
| Lewis County Sheriff | Local custody, booking, and housing questions | Call (208) 937-2447 or go to Room #5. |
| Sheriff records request | Incident reports and booking-related records | Requests are forwarded to the Prosecutor for review and approval, usually causing a three-business-day wait. |
| IDOC Resident/Client Search | State prison, probation, and parole status | Use when the person may be under IDOC jurisdiction. |
| Idaho VINE | Custody and criminal-case notifications | Free notification service with phone, text, email, and app options. |
| Idaho State Police SOR | Sex offender registry records | Separate from jail custody and not a list of current inmates. |
How to Find Lewis County Inmates
There is no county roster portal to open, so the practical process uses the sheriff first and state databases second. If a person was just arrested, call the sheriff before assuming the person has been booked locally. If the local jail is closed or a person is held elsewhere, the sheriff can identify the housing facility. Once a person is sentenced or transferred to IDOC, county custody rules no longer control the search.
- Call the Lewis County Sheriff's Office at (208) 937-2447 for current local custody or booking status.
- Ask whether the person is held locally, released, transferred, or housed in another facility.
- If an incident report or booking-related record is needed, use the sheriff public records request process.
- Search the IDOC Resident/Client Search for state prison, probation, or parole status.
- Register with Idaho VINE if custody or criminal-case change notifications are needed.
- Use Idaho State Police SOR only for sex offender registry information, not for jail custody status.
If the arrest is tied to an unresolved warrant, the custody question may also require a Lewis County warrant records check through the sheriff or District Court.
Lewis County Inmate Search Fields
The county research did not locate an official Lewis County jail roster field table. The following table renders the official search fields that were documented for the state-level tools used when a person may be in IDOC custody, on probation or parole, registered for VINE notifications, or listed in the state sex offender registry.
| Tool | Field Label | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDOC Resident/Client Search | Last Name / IDOC Number | One search value required | Covers people on court probation or under IDOC jurisdiction. |
| IDOC Resident/Client Search | First Name | Optional | Use to narrow results. |

| Idaho State Police SOR | Adult or Juvenile database | Yes | Search either adult or juvenile database, one at a time. |
Lewis County Inmate Profile Limits
No official Lewis County Idaho inmate profile could be inspected because no official county roster was located. A county-level inmate profile table with booking number, housing unit, projected release, and bond details would be unsupported for Lewis County. The official inventory below shows what the documented channels can confirm and what remains a direct sheriff question.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Local custody status | Not published in a county web roster; call the Lewis County Sheriff. |
| Booking detail | May require sheriff confirmation or a sheriff records request if releasable. |
| Incident report | Requested through the sheriff form and reviewed by the Prosecutor's Office. |
| IDOC status | Can show prison, probation, or parole status for people under IDOC jurisdiction. |
| Felony listing | IDOC may show felonies for which a person is serving time. |
| Released person limitation | IDOC says names of people who served and satisfied sentences may appear, but convictions will not. |
| VINE notification status | Allows notification registration for custody and case changes when supported. |
Lewis County Jail Facility Contacts
The county research did not locate an official detention-facility capacity, average daily population, current housing-location list, or separate jail address for Lewis County. The official custody contact remains the sheriff office in Room #5 at the courthouse. Do not assume a separate inmate-mail address, money-deposit counter, or video-visitation vendor without direct confirmation from the sheriff.

IDOC Lewis County Inmate Lookup
The Idaho Department of Correction Resident/Client Search is the main state-level tool when a person has moved beyond local jail custody. It covers people under IDOC jurisdiction, including state prison, probation, and parole. It is not a substitute for calling the Lewis County Sheriff right after an arrest, but it is useful when a person has been sentenced, transferred, or placed under state supervision.
The source view from the IDOC Resident/Client Search shows the state search channel used after a case moves into Idaho correctional jurisdiction.
Use name or IDOC number in the IDOC search, and remember that county booking details may not appear there.
The source view from the IDOC prisons page supports the distinction between a local Lewis County custody question and state prison placement.
Once a person is in an IDOC facility, visitation, mail, and money rules come from the facility-specific IDOC process rather than Lewis County jail practice.
Lewis County Custody Notifications
Idaho VINE is the documented notification channel for custody and criminal case information. It is free and can provide automated phone, text, and email updates. VINE helps when a person needs status alerts, but it does not replace the sheriff for immediate booking questions, housing location, or records held by Lewis County law enforcement.
The source view from Idaho VINE shows the statewide custody and case notification system available for Idaho users.
VINE is best used for ongoing alerts after the first custody status check has been made through the sheriff or state system.
Note: VINE notification data can lag behind a live sheriff update, so call the originating agency for urgent custody questions.
Lewis County Visitation and Mail
No official Lewis County Idaho jail visitation schedule, mail policy, commissary vendor, phone vendor, video visitation provider, or money-deposit service was located on the county site. The sheriff page focuses on personnel, emergency instruction, employment, and public records. Publishing vendor names or visitation hours without an official source would risk sending families to the wrong place.
| Topic | Officially Located Channel | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Visitation schedule | Not located for Lewis County | Call Sheriff (208) 937-2447. |
| Mail address | Not located as inmate-mail format | Do not assume Room #5 is an inmate-mail address. |
| Commissary / money | Not located | No vendor link found in official county materials. |
| Phone/video calls | Not located | No official Securus, GTL, HomeWAV, or similar vendor found. |
| Attorney visitation | Not located | Call sheriff or court for current instructions. |
| VINE notifications | Idaho VINE | Use for custody and case status alerts. |
| State-prison visitation | IDOC facility pages | Applies after transfer to IDOC, not county jail. |
Lewis County Booking Records Requests
Booking-related records and incident reports are not the same as the live custody status a dispatcher or deputy can confirm. The Lewis County sheriff public records request form is the documented path for sheriff records not displayed online. The sheriff page says incident-report requests are forwarded to the Prosecutor's Office for review and approval, usually causing a three-business-day wait. Some law-enforcement and investigatory records may be withheld under Idaho public-records exemptions.
If the person has court charges after arrest, iCourt and the District Court clerk may show the criminal case events, hearings, and disposition. For the arrest-to-charge path, use the Lewis County arrest records and charges page along with sheriff records.
Note: A sheriff incident report, a jail booking record, an iCourt case, and an IDOC profile are separate records.
Lewis County Sex Offender Registry
The Idaho State Police sex offender registry can be searched by last name, optional first name, city, and county. It also has adult and juvenile database choices, searched one at a time, with results shown in pages. The registry is useful for public-safety checks, but it is not an inmate roster and does not prove that a person is currently in custody.
The source view from the Idaho State Police sex offender registry search shows the statewide registry landing page tied to Lewis County inmate-record research.
Use the county filter for Lewis County when the registry search needs to stay local to Idaho.
