Owyhee County jail roster — find who is in custody

The Owyhee County Jail roster is published by the Owyhee County Sheriff's Office. It is the official, current list of people in custody — use it directly instead of third-party databases, which lag behind releases.

Official Owyhee County roster

The official jail page posts a "View the Jail Roster" link — a PDF of everyone currently in custody — plus a companion active-warrants list. Open the jail page and use the roster link there (the county replaces the PDF periodically, so the page link is the stable path).

If you can't find someone on the roster

  • The county replaces the roster PDF periodically rather than live-updating it; the adjacent warrants list updates Monday-Friday mornings. If a very recent arrest isn't listed, call (208) 495-1154.
  • Call the jail directly: (208) 495-1154 (Owyhee County Jail, 20381 State Highway 78, Murphy, ID 83650).
  • They may be held in a neighboring county — check the other Treasure Valley rosters.
