Official Blaine County Jail Roster
The official Blaine County detention roster is reached from the county's Detention Roster page and from the county-linked full roster at blainesheriff.cleanwebdesign.com. The iframe host is not a county domain, but it is embedded by Blaine County and is treated here as the official current list. The roster is a live public list, not a database with a search form. The inspected roster showed a visible timestamp, a result count, mugshot thumbnails, names, offense text, arresting agencies, booking dates, and status fields.
That design matters. A person cannot type a name into a roster form, pick a facility, or open a detailed profile page. The practical method is to read the timestamp, scroll the list, and use the browser's find command for a last name, agency, charge term, warrant text, "IDOC," "ICE Hold," or "Pre-Sentenced." The current roster is best for the present Blaine County Detention Center population. It does not replace the court docket, sheriff records request process, state prison locator, federal prison locator, or immigration detainee locator.

The image shows why Blaine County inmate records need a manual review: the roster presents stacked booking entries rather than a form-driven search result.
Search Blaine County Inmate Records
The best starting point is the county roster, followed by the separate recent-arrests feed if the person may have been booked and released. Recent arrests are posted through the official Recent Arrests page and the direct county-linked feed at blainesheriff.cleanwebdesign.com/arrest.php. On inspection, the recent-arrests feed used the same basic entry format as the full roster and added release dates when a person had left custody.
- Open the current Blaine County Detention Roster and read the timestamp before relying on the custody result.
- Use browser find for the last name. If the name is common, repeat the search with a first name, hometown, charge term, or arresting agency.
- Check the Recent Arrests feed when a quick booking and release is possible, because a released person may no longer appear on the current jail population list.
- Compare the roster offense text with court records before treating an arrest charge as the filed court charge.
- Call the detention line or use sheriff records when the online roster does not answer an older booking, release, jacket-number, bond, or records question.
For a person moved out of local jail custody, the right next tool depends on who now holds the person. IDOC covers Idaho prison, probation, and parole records. BOP covers federal sentenced custody. ICE ODLS covers immigration detention. VINELink adds custody notification and release-alert functions. Idaho Sheriff Connect advertises jail information for Idaho sheriff offices, but the research did not verify any Blaine app-only roster.
Blaine County Roster Fields
Blaine County inmate records are unusual because the roster has no visible search fields. The field table below records what a user actually sees on the county-linked roster and recent-arrests pages. The absence of a search box is not a missing step. It is how the public interface is built, so manual review and browser find are part of the lookup process.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search input | None | n/a | No search fields are visible; the roster is a scrollable current list. |
| Timestamp | Page text | n/a | Shows when the roster or recent-arrests list was current. |
| Results | Page text | n/a | Shows the number of entries in the current roster or recent-arrests window. |
| Mugshot | Image | n/a | Public booking-photo thumbnail with alt text observed as "mugshot." |
| Name | Roster text | n/a | Uppercase, last-name-first format. |
| Offenses | Text block | n/a | Can show charges, warrants, sentence notes, work release, IDOC, other-county holds, or ICE holds. |
| Buttons | None | n/a | No search, reset, advanced search, export, or print button was visible. |
Note: If the roster will not load in an embedded county page, try the direct iframe URL and then call detention if the custody question is urgent.
Blaine County Inmate Profile Details
A Blaine County roster entry is not a full jail file. It is a public booking snapshot. The full roster and recent-arrests feed showed the same core fields, while recent arrests also showed release dates when applicable. The sheriff records process remains the route for older booking records, media, reports, or details that do not appear online.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Mugshot | Single front-facing booking-photo thumbnail while the entry is public. |
| Name | Public roster name, usually uppercase and last name first. |
| Age and hometown | Age in years and city/state/ZIP when populated; date of birth is not displayed. |
| Offenses | Charges, warrant text, sentence notes, work release, IDOC, other-county holds, or ICE holds. |
| Arresting agency | The agency tied to the arrest or hold, such as the Sheriff's Office, Hailey PD, Ketchum PD, Bellevue Marshal's Office, IDOC, or another county. |
| Booking date | Jail intake date and time in MM/DD/YY HH:MM format. |
| Release date | Shown on recent-arrests entries when the person has been released. |
| Status | Observed values include Pre-Sentenced, Sentenced, or blank. |
The roster does not show bond, housing unit, court date, case link, full address, full physical description, booking number, or date of birth. For an inmate jacket number needed for mail, the detention FAQ directs callers to the Detention Center at 208-788-5564. Court charges and hearing dates are found through Idaho's court tools, not inside the Blaine County jail roster.
Request Older Blaine County Jail Records
Online roster data is only one access channel. The Blaine County Sheriff's records page explains that citizens may examine and copy public records in the Sheriff's Office possession when the record is not exempt. Written requests go to the office that keeps the record. Accident and offense reports from the Sheriff's Office should not be routed through the general county form if the request is for a sheriff accident, incident, or case report.
The official Blaine County Sheriff's records page is the proper fallback for accident/offense requests, FOIA-style public information, older booking records, and jail details not shown by the roster. The page states accident reports generally take 7 to 12 days to complete, involved parties can request accident/offense reports free of charge, insurance company report requests cost $5, and discs with photographs, audio, or video cost $5. If public information research and processing exceeds two hours or 100 copies, a fee may apply.

That records page is the important backup when the public roster lacks an older booking, media item, report, or release detail.
Blaine County Jail vs IDOC
The Blaine County Detention Center handles local jail custody: new arrests, pretrial detainees, short county sentences, work release, juveniles up to short holding limits, other-jurisdiction holds, and people awaiting Idaho Department of Correction transfer. A roster entry can mention IDOC, but that does not make the county roster the prison locator. Once the person is under IDOC jurisdiction for prison, probation, or parole records, use the IDOC resident/client search.
| Custody Question | Where to Look | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Current county jail custody | Blaine County Detention Roster | Local arrests, pretrial custody, short sentences, work release, warrants, county holds. |
| Recent booking or release | Blaine County Recent Arrests | Recent date-window bookings, including people already released. |
| Sentenced Idaho custody | IDOC resident/client search | Prison, probation, parole, and people under IDOC jurisdiction. |
| Federal sentenced custody | BOP inmate locator | Federal sentenced custody and prior BOP custody records. |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator | Immigration detainees searched by A-number or biographical data. |
| Custody alerts | VINELink Idaho | Offender search and notification registration for custody changes. |
Use the federal and ICE tools only for the custody systems they actually cover. Federal and immigration locators generally will not show Blaine County mugshots, local jail bond, county booking charges, or Blaine release dates. Those details start with the county roster, recent arrests, or sheriff records.
Blaine County Jail Contact
The Blaine County Detention Center is the only detention facility identified in official local sources for Blaine County. It is operated by the Blaine County Sheriff's Office and is the facility tied to the detention roster, recent-arrests feed, jail visitation, bond questions, inmate mail, and lobby kiosk functions. It holds people arrested by agencies across the county and can also show IDOC, ICE, and other-county holds.
Blaine County Detention Center
1650 Aviation Drive
Hailey, ID 83333
208-788-5555 main
208-788-5564 detention, visitation, and bond questions
County jail operated by the Blaine County Sheriff's Office.
People who need a jacket number for mail, bond guidance, or a custody check should use the detention number. For public records, older booking data, reports, photographs, audio, or video, use the sheriff records process. For general county public records not held by the sheriff, the county also provides a public-records form, but the county warns that sheriff accident, incident, and case reports should go directly to the Sheriff's Office to avoid delay.
Blaine County Booking Process
Official sources describe the working parts of booking even though they do not publish a single booking timeline. A person arrested by the Sheriff's Office, Hailey Police Department, Ketchum Police Department, Bellevue Marshal's Office, Idaho State Police, IDOC, or another agency may be transported to the Blaine County Detention Center. Detention deputies book and release inmates, process legal and financial papers, assess security classification, manage property and hygiene exchange, and coordinate medical, dental, and mental-health screening through licensed providers.
After intake, the public roster may show the mugshot, name, age, hometown, offense text, arresting agency, booking date, and status. The timing is not promised, so the roster timestamp matters. The county prosecutor's criminal-process page explains that arraignment is the first court appearance, where the person is advised of rights, can plead, is notified of charges and penalties, and receives bail and release conditions from the judge. Video arraignment is one of the duties connected to the detention facility.
- Booking
- Jail intake after arrest, including photo, paperwork, screening, and custody entry.
- Classification
- Risk and housing review used to place a person safely in the jail.
- Detainer
- A request from another agency to hold the person, such as IDOC, another county, or ICE.
- PR bond
- Release on a promise to appear, when allowed by the court.
Blaine County Visitation Records
After locating a person in custody, visitation uses the county's tablet-based system. The official Blaine County visitation page directs users to GettingOut for video visits, messages, photos, and scheduling. The county gives inmates 60 free online tablet-visitation minutes per week and lists extra visit time at $0.25 per minute. Visits can be done from home, a mobile phone, or the jail lobby visiting consoles.
| Visit Type | Schedule / Limit | Rules |
|---|---|---|
| Online tablet visitation | 60 free minutes per week; added time $0.25 per minute | Use GettingOut or call 866-516-0115 for account and scheduling help. |
| Daily visiting hours | 7:00-11:15 a.m.; noon-5:45 p.m.; 6:30-9:00 p.m. | Hours can change. Confirm before relying on a visit window. |
| Special out-of-town visit | Advance notice required for visitors traveling more than 60 miles | Call 208-788-5564, bring proof of residency, show ID, and check in with Control Booth. |
| Inmate worker glass visit | One 20-minute glass visit per day when classified as eligible | Applies to inmate workers under handbook rules. |

The same custody check used for inmate records should be made before scheduling a visit, because releases and transfers can make a visit account or lobby trip unhelpful.
Blaine County Mail and Money
Personal mail is routed through a digital-delivery process rather than sent straight to the Hailey jail address. The official rule lists Blaine County Detention Center, Idaho; the inmate's name; the inmate jacket number; P.O. Box 247; Phoenix, MD 21131. Legal mail and cashier-check or money-order payments go to the physical detention center address in Hailey. Call 208-788-5564 if the jacket number is not known.
Money and commissary rules also depend on custody status. The lobby kiosk accepts cash, credit, and debit for trust accounts, prepaid phone accounts, housing fees, fingerprint fees, medical fees, and civil fees. Remote deposits are handled through GettingOut or 866-516-0115. Commissary is ordered on tablets, with a Tuesday 9:00 p.m. cutoff and Thursday delivery except holiday weeks. Work release is a distinct program for eligible low-risk sentenced people and has separate weekly fees published by the county.
Note: Confirm the person is still in Blaine County jail custody before sending money, scheduling visits, or mailing nonlegal items.
Blaine County App and VINELink
VINELink is the verified notification channel for Idaho custody alerts. It is useful when a victim, family member, or witness needs release or custody-change notices rather than a one-time roster check. Search the Idaho VINELink service by name or ID and register for alerts when the service offers a matching record.
Idaho Sheriff Connect was found in the Apple App Store and advertises jail information, news, events, crime prevention, recruiting, and sheriff-office information for Idaho sheriff communication. No official Blaine County page was found that documents a Blaine-specific app-only inmate roster, warrant search, mugshot tool, or records request feature. Treat the county roster, recent arrests, detention phone line, sheriff records, IDOC, BOP, ICE, and VINELink as the verified access chain for Blaine County inmate records.
