Find Montgomery County Inmates

Montgomery County Inmate Search

No public web jail roster with searchable fields was located on the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office website. The official incarcerated-detainees page says to call Montgomery County Jail at 573-564-8086 to ask whether a detainee is in custody. The same source directs users to download the MCSO Sheriff Application and use Jail Information, then Weekly Booking Report, to view app PDF booking reports.

The jail is part of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office Jail Division. The sheriff page describes the office as the pre-trial custodial keeper of persons charged with crimes. That means many people in the jail may be awaiting court action, bond, transfer, or release. For formal charges and case outcomes, use court records. For custody, call the jail.

The official jail division source is represented below from the sheriff jail division page.

This source supports the local intake and jail-operation details, including booking, LiveScan, photographs, classification, and housing assignments.

Use Montgomery County Booking Reports

The available local lookup route is app based. The sheriff's incarcerated-detainees page describes the app path rather than a searchable web roster. The weekly booking report is app-only or much easier to access in the app, and the public web page gives the custody inquiry phone for direct status checks.

1. Call the jail at 573-564-8086 for current custody status.
2. Download the Montgomery County Sheriff, MO app from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
3. Open the app and select the Jail Information tab.
4. Select Weekly Booking Report and choose one of the available report options.
5. Use the downloaded PDF report as a booking snapshot, then call the jail for current status.

The sheriff page for incarcerated detainees is the local source for that app workflow.

That workflow should not be read as a live roster with current release status. Weekly reports and current custody calls serve different needs.

Montgomery County Jail Roster Fields

Because no inspected public web roster was located, no official Montgomery County roster search-field table can list last name, booking number, charge, or bond as verified web fields. The official field inventory is limited to the public channels that were documented: jail phone inquiry, sheriff app navigation, and Missouri DOC search for state-supervised offenders.

Montgomery County Inmate Profile Limits

No public individual inmate profile was available from official sources, and the app weekly booking reports could not be opened and inspected during research. Expected fields cannot be invented. Public-facing county information provides a custody phone line and app PDF reports, but not a verified web profile layout.

Montgomery County Jail Facility

The Montgomery County Jail is at 211 East Third Street in Montgomery City. The jail administrator is Captain Eric Foree, and the assistant jail administrator is Sergeant Brian Shahan. The research lists six housing units: four male units, one female unit, and one trustee unit. Capacity was not located in official sources, so no capacity number should be assumed.

The sheriff mobile app is a required local source for weekly booking reports. The official sheriff mobile application page is shown below.

The app page lists jail information, weekly booking reports, tips, press releases, community resources, push notifications, and other sheriff communication tools.

Montgomery County Booking Process

The jail books about 1,500 detainees a year. During intake, each detainee is fingerprinted and photographed. The jail has used LiveScan fingerprints tied directly to the Missouri Highway Patrol fingerprint repository since 2006, and a digital photographic system tying detainee photos to jail documents since 2007. Compliant detainees receive phone access to call family or a bondsman during booking.

If a person is not released, jail staff complete medical and mental-health questions and a classification workup. Detainees are then assigned to housing based on classification and other factors. Once in general population, they have phone access and other communication resources for family, friends, and attorneys. Court charges connected to the arrest are separate from this jail intake process and should be checked through Case.net or the Circuit Clerk.

Booking does not always mean the person will remain in custody. A detainee may post bond, be released after court action, be transferred, or move to another supervision status. That is why the weekly booking report should be treated as a report of recent jail activity, not as a live custody guarantee. The phone line is the direct route for current status. For the court side of the same event, Case.net may show charges, bond orders, next hearings, warrants, and dispositions when public.

County Jail vs State DOC Search

The Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Search is not a Montgomery County jail roster. It covers active DOC-supervised offenders, probationers, and parolees. It does not provide discharged-offender information and may exclude some offenders for safety, security, or confidentiality. It is useful when a person may have moved from local jail to state prison or state supervision.

The Missouri DOC Offender Search is represented in the assigned image below.

Use DOC search for state custody or supervision, then use the local jail phone and sheriff app for Montgomery County detention and booking report questions.

Montgomery County Inmate Visitation

In-person visitation rules require government-issued valid photo ID. Phones, cameras, recording devices, purses, bags, briefcases, coats, and jackets are prohibited in the visitation area. Lockers are provided in the lobby, or visitors may return items to vehicles. Entry means consent to search, and refusal can revoke visitation privileges or lead to removal. Detainee and visitation phones may be monitored or recorded.

Video visitation uses CIDNET by Encartele, Inc. Housing-unit video access is available from 7:00 a.m. to 10:45 p.m., and the lobby has two video visitation systems for family or friends who lack a computer or smartphone.

Montgomery County Sheriff App

The official app name is Montgomery County Sheriff, MO, also described by the sheriff as the MOCO Sheriff's App. The sheriff app page lists OCV and TheSheriffApp.com as the platform. The app is important because the weekly booking report is app-only or much easier in the app, while no equivalent public web roster was located.

The assigned store images come from the Apple App Store listing and the Google Play listing.

The Apple listing advertises reporting crimes, submitting tips, real-time traffic alerts, breaking news, community resources, crime prevention, recent arrests, and more.

The Google Play route supports Android access to the same sheriff communication and jail-information channel.

Mail Money and Bond

Mail should be addressed with the detainee name, Montgomery County Jail, 211 E. Third Street, Montgomery City, MO 63361. Incoming mail must have a return address and the sender's first and last name. Stamps, envelopes, paper, personal checks, money orders, sexually explicit material, and other restricted items are not accepted. General mail may be rejected for security, good order, discipline, public safety, or criminal-activity concerns. Legal mail is opened in front of the inmate and checked for contraband.

Each housing unit has a kiosk for texts, emails, commissary orders, photographs, video calls, requests, and grievances. Money can be deposited at kiosks inside the elevator entrance on the west side of the building, and the kiosks accept credit, debit, and cash. Online deposit links include JailATM and CIDNET registration/current-user options from the sheriff page. Bond calls require detainee name, booking number, and cash bond amount. Court Money payments by Visa, MasterCard, and Discover are available 24/7, with handling fees.

Bond information should be checked for the specific detainee because the jail cannot proceed until Court Money notification is received. If the cash amount or handling fee is wrong, the correction must be handled through Court Money. A family member trying to connect a jail booking to a court case should write down the booking number, the name used by the jail, the charge description, and any court date or bond text from Case.net, then confirm the current status by phone.

Montgomery County Inmate Record Boundaries

Inmate records, arrest records, court charges, and criminal histories answer different questions. A jail record shows local custody or booking activity. An arrest report shows the law-enforcement event. A court charge record shows what the prosecutor filed. A criminal court record shows the case path and outcome. A Missouri DOC result shows state prison, probation, or parole status. Keeping those records separate is the best way to avoid treating a booking report as a conviction or treating a court charge as current custody.

Restricted records can also affect the search. Juvenile material, sealed cases, expunged records, protected personal identifiers, medical information, and some investigative details may not be public. When a public-facing source does not show a name or profile, the gap may be due to release, transfer, data timing, confidentiality, or the fact that the person was never booked into the local jail. The official jail phone remains the strongest local custody check for Montgomery County.
