Search the Live Stutsman County Jail Roster, Then Verify Bail, Court and Release Separately

Start with the Stutsman County Correctional Center’s live in-custody roster. The county also publishes separate 72-hour booking and 72-hour release pages, while bail, court records, visits, mail, inmate money, PREA reporting and state-custody searches use different official routes.

A roster entry is not a conviction or a certified background check. Stutsman County says its roster displays arrest information only, may contain identification errors, and cannot be certified for accuracy or authenticity. Court records control the filed case and legal disposition.

Quick Answer: Which Stutsman County Page Should You Open?

Use the county’s Inmate Roster – In Custody for current local custody. The list is live data sorted alphabetically by last name, and rows highlighted in green identify people booked within the last 24 hours.

If the arrest or release happened recently, use the county’s separate Recently Booked or Recently Released page. Each covers a 72-hour window and can display high-resolution booking photographs for media purposes.

Need current custody?

Use the live in-custody roster, then call 701-252-7436 when same-day confirmation matters.

Need a legal case or hearing?

Use North Dakota Courts Records Inquiry and the Stutsman County Clerk of District Court.

Need bail, a visit or inmate money?

Use the Correctional Center’s dedicated bail, visitation and communication pages rather than assuming roster information is enough.

What Is Distinctive About the Stutsman County Correctional Center?

The county identifies SCCC as a Grade 1 facility on the second floor of the Law Enforcement Center. It opened in 1986 with 44 beds and now has a published maximum capacity of 92. It houses sentenced and non-sentenced adult men and women from Stutsman County and surrounding communities and also maintains a U.S. Marshals boarding arrangement.

The official North Dakota DOCR inspection PDF available during this review is dated May 20, 2025. It recorded 69 inmates on that inspection date, a maximum rated capacity of 92 and a compliance calculation of 107 compliant standards, zero non-compliant standards and one non-applicable standard. The 69-person count is a historical inspection snapshot, not the current jail population.

2025 inspection detailWhat it means for a visitor
Grade 1; rated capacity 92Describes the state inspection classification and rated capacity, not today’s occupied beds.
Booking, observation, property, treatment and medical areas documentedConfirms separate operational areas exist; it does not create public access to those areas.

Electronic law library on kiosksThe inspection documents legal-research access inside the facility.
Multiple outside-agency boarding arrangementsPhysical housing at SCCC does not always mean Stutsman County is the arresting agency or ultimate custodian.

Stutsman County Bail: Cash, Card and Bail-Bond Routes Are Different

SCCC publishes unusually specific bail instructions. These options are for bail, not ordinary commissary or communication funding.

Cash bail

Cash bail can be posted 24 hours a day at the first-floor lobby kiosk. After the deposit, notify staff using the call button near the second-floor door or call 701-252-7436 extension 6106.

Credit / debit card

Cards can be used 24 hours a day at the lobby kiosk or through the county-linked Inmate Canteen service. District Court can also handle card payments during its normal business hours.

Bail bond company

The court determines whether an offense is eligible for a bail-bond agency, typically at the initial appearance. SCCC does not advertise or recommend a particular company.

Refund detail many directories omit: SCCC says bail deposits are forwarded to the court that set bail. Courts treat bail funds as the defendant’s property after posting, so any refund is returned to the defendant—not to the person who supplied the money.
  • Confirm the person is still in custody.
  • Identify every current case and hold.
  • Confirm the current bail amount and bond type.
  • Ask whether another warrant, detainer or agency hold can prevent release.
  • Confirm the payment method before sending money.
  • Do not assume payment guarantees a specific release time.

Stutsman County Court Router: District Court vs. Jamestown Municipal Court

North Dakota Courts Records Inquiry is the public case-search route for criminal, traffic and civil cases. The system states that its data is current through the end of the previous business day and that restricted information may not appear online.

What about warrants?

No public Stutsman County Sheriff warrant-search page was located during this review, and North Dakota’s eWarrant portal is restricted to authorized law-enforcement and judicial users. For public verification, use North Dakota court records for case context and contact the Sheriff’s Office when direct warrant guidance is needed. A warrant result or court record does not prove current jail custody.

Current Stutsman County Video Visitation Rules

SCCC uses Turnkey Corrections / Inmate Canteen for video visitation. Visitors must submit an application before their first visit. The county says applicants must be at least 18 and must have a current, unexpired government photo ID.

Visit typeCurrent published hoursCost / access
Online / remote videoEvery day: 8–10 a.m., 12–4 p.m., 6–10 p.m. CentralAvailable from a personal device for a nominal provider fee.
Onsite videoMonday–Friday: 8–10 a.m. and 12–4 p.m. CentralFree lobby kiosks; first-come, first-served. Not available weekends or government holidays falling Monday–Friday.
  • Applications may take up to five business days for approval or denial.
  • Visits are limited to 45 minutes.
  • Children at the facility must be supervised.
  • Visits are monitored and recorded.
  • Improper equipment use, nudity, excessive profanity, illegal activity or creating a disturbance can lead to suspended visiting privileges.

Phone, SMS, Email and Inmate Money

For inmate phone, SMS or email communication, Stutsman County directs family and friends to create an account through Inmate Canteen. The 2025 state inspection also documented telephone and texting devices in housing units, but current fees and individual access should be confirmed through the provider and facility.

General inmate account deposits

The visitation page says money can be deposited online through Inmate Canteen or at the kiosk in the Law Enforcement Center lobby. The current communication/property page also says cash may be delivered in person and cashier’s checks or official bank checks can be accepted through the mail.

Keep four money routes separate: ordinary inmate account funds, communication credits, commissary purchases and court bail are not the same payment. Before paying, confirm the purpose, account and person.

Mail, Publications, Photos and Personal Property

Current inmate mail format
[Inmate Full Name]
c/o Stutsman County Correctional Center
205 6th St SE Suite 201
Jamestown, ND 58401
  • Incoming and outgoing mail must include the sender’s full first and last name and full return address.
  • Mail must be sent through a postal delivery service; personal hand delivery on behalf of an inmate is not allowed.
  • The county says mail that is wholly or partly in a language other than English may be denied unless the inmate has previously been approved to the facility’s limited-English-proficiency list.
  • Mail may be held for investigation when it appears to violate facility rules; the inmate and sender receive a violation notice explaining the investigation.

Books, magazines and newspapers

Publications may be sent through a vendor such as a retailer or publisher. The facility lists possession limits of five books, three days of newspapers and five magazines. Vendor-shipped books must be paperback or softcover; hardcover books are not allowed. Publications cannot contain metal or other materials the facility considers a safety or sanitation concern.

Photos

Photos may be sent electronically through Inmate Canteen or through the mail. Mailed photographs must be 4×6 inches or smaller, and the facility lists a maximum possession limit of 30 photos.

Personal property

SCCC supplies necessary clothing and says personal property cannot be dropped off for an inmate without prior authorization from the Administrative Officer. For mail or property questions, the county lists 701-252-7436 extension 6102.

Medical, Mental-Health and PREA Safety Routing

Health care

The county identifies a Health Care Administrator as part of SCCC administration. The 2025 DOCR inspection documented a medical treatment area and found the facility compliant with state intake-screening requirements covering current illness, medications, substance use, mental health, self-harm or suicide risk, pregnancy and other health concerns.

The current public pages reviewed do not provide a detailed family medication-drop procedure. For urgent medication or medical information, contact SCCC directly and ask how to route the information to health staff. For an immediate life-safety emergency, use 911.

PREA third-party reporting

Stutsman County states that third-party reports of sexual abuse or sexual harassment are accepted and handled like reports from a victim. Current published routes include:

  • SCCC verbal report: 701-252-7436.
  • Written report: SCCC, 205 6th St SE Suite 201, Jamestown, ND 58401.
  • Email: sccc@stutsmancounty.gov.
  • Stutsman County Sheriff general inquiries: 701-251-6200.
  • The county PREA page also provides an online reporting form.

Local Programs Most Generic Jail Directories Miss

Cooperative Treatment Release (CTR)

Stutsman County’s CTR program combines SCCC, the State’s Attorney, District Court and South Central Human Service Center to allow eligible sentenced participants to attend addiction treatment while serving a jail sentence. It is not ordinary work release and it is not automatic.

  • The District Court sentence must include CTR consideration.
  • The individual must request participation through the SCCC Administrative Officer.
  • SCCC reviews the court order and determines eligibility for release from the facility.
  • South Central Human Service Center must screen and approve treatment suitability.
  • The first program chemical test costs $15; subsequent negative tests are not charged, while a positive test carries another $15 charge under the published rules.
  • Only the sentencing judge may change the court-ordered report date.

24/7 Sobriety Program

Stutsman County also administers North Dakota’s 24/7 Sobriety Program. The county says second or subsequent DUI arrests occurring on or after January 1, 2008 can result in a bond order requiring alcohol abstinence and twice-daily breath testing. The published fee is $1 per test, or $2 per day. A failed test can result in immediate custody, and a missed test can revoke bond.

These programs apply only when the court and program requirements fit the individual case. A roster entry alone does not establish eligibility.

Booking Photos, Jail Records, Police Reports and Public Records

The official Stutsman County recent-booking and recent-release pages can display high-resolution booking photos for records inside their 72-hour windows. A photograph is an identity clue, not proof of guilt or final case outcome.

Stutsman County Correctional Center Location

SCCC is on the second floor of the Stutsman County Law Enforcement Center at 205 6th Street SE in Jamestown. The Sheriff, Jamestown Police and Municipal Court are also in the Law Enforcement Center, while District Court is at the separate Stutsman County Courthouse on 2nd Avenue SE.

Use Jail Roster Information Responsibly

  • Do not treat an arrest, booking, charge or photo as a conviction.
  • Do not use the roster as a complete criminal-background check.
  • Do not treat a warrant or open court case as proof of current incarceration.
  • Do not assume a displayed bond amount guarantees release.
  • Do not rely on an old screenshot after custody may have changed.
  • Do not use booking data to harass, threaten, stalk, shame or unlawfully screen a person.
  • Use court records for filed charges, hearings and legal outcomes.
  • Recheck the live facility source before paying bail, scheduling a visit, mailing unusual items or arranging transportation.

Stutsman County Jail Roster FAQs

Where is the official Stutsman County jail roster?

Use the Stutsman County Correctional Center’s Inmate Roster – In Custody page. The county describes it as live data sorted alphabetically by last name.

What do green rows mean on the Stutsman County roster?

Green-highlighted rows identify individuals booked within the last 24 hours. The highlight is a timing marker, not a statement about charge severity or release eligibility.

How far back do Stutsman County recent bookings and releases go?

The county’s separate Recently Booked and Recently Released pages each cover the previous 72 hours and can include high-resolution booking photos.

How can I post bail at Stutsman County Correctional Center?

SCCC publishes cash and card routes through the first-floor lobby kiosk, card options through Inmate Canteen, and District Court card processing during business hours. Bail-bond agency eligibility depends on the court. Call 701-252-7436 extension 6106 to verify the current case and eligibility before paying.

Who gets a Stutsman County bail refund?

SCCC says bail funds are treated by the court as the defendant’s property once posted. Any bail refund therefore goes to the defendant rather than the person who supplied the bail money.

What are the current Stutsman County video visitation hours?

Online visits are available daily from 8–10 a.m., 12–4 p.m. and 6–10 p.m. Central. Onsite free video kiosks are available Monday through Friday from 8–10 a.m. and 12–4 p.m., excluding government holidays. Visits are limited to 45 minutes.

Where do I send mail to a Stutsman County inmate?

Address mail to the inmate’s full name, c/o Stutsman County Correctional Center, 205 6th St SE Suite 201, Jamestown, ND 58401. Include the sender’s full name and return address and use a postal delivery service.

How do I send money or communicate with an inmate?

Stutsman County links Inmate Canteen for online deposits and for phone, SMS and email accounts. A lobby kiosk is also available for deposits. Keep ordinary inmate funds separate from court bail.

Where do I check a Stutsman County criminal case or court date?

Use North Dakota Courts Records Inquiry for public case information, then contact the Stutsman County Clerk of District Court at 701-253-6243 when the online record is incomplete or an official court record is needed.

What should I do if a person is missing from the Stutsman County roster?

Check spelling, the 72-hour booking and release pages, and North Dakota court records. If a transfer is possible, use ND DOCR for state custody or the confirmed receiving county. For time-sensitive local custody, call SCCC at 701-252-7436.
