If you want to search for an inmate or someone recently arrested, check out the online search tool.
If you were to ask any sheriff's deputy that works in this county what the one thing that most of these inmates have in common, they would tell you "illegal drugs", and specifically "meth".
The Canyon County Detention Center allows video visitations from 8-10:30am, 12-4:30 pm, and 7-11:00 pm every day of the week. Inmates are responsible for communicating their allowed visit times to prospective visitors. Canyon County Jail in Idaho has been the subject of several lawsuits and investigations. In 2010, a lawsuit was settled with a consent decree that required the jail to eliminate overcrowding problems. More recently, there have been reports of illegal censorship of inmate mail, as well as an investigation into an inmate's death. The jail's website provides information on restrictions and conditions for receiving books and magazines. The Canyon County Jail in Idaho is unique because it has a system of inmate classifications that determines appropriate housing assignments based on interviews and records checks. It is also a medium-security jail managed by the Caldwell Sheriff's Office. The jail has recently opened a new pod for female inmates called Pod 6, which can house up to 122 people. They constructed it by welding 28 tractor trailers together.
Overcrowding continues to be an issue for Canyon County, and even with the new addition they call 'Pod 6', they still have to send overflow to neighboring counties. This cost the county $75.00 per day per inmate they have to send out... plus the manpower to transport the inmates back and forth.
The Canyon County Detention Center is broken down into different security levels: Maximum, Medium, Minimum, Disciplinary, Protective Custody, and Work Release. The Work Release Center handles approximately 60 inmates, two-thirds of them being male. Work Release inmates are generally gainfully employed and not a threat to society. They don't require as much security and therefore cost less to incarcerate. They also have to pay a daily fee to the county, alleviating evn more of the overhead. Most work at the Canyon County Landfill. They also get four hours of free tim on Sunday for personal business.
Below this section there are answers to all of your questions regarding bail, mail, texting, phoning, visiting and sending an inmate money for commissary.
To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Canyon County Detention Center, call the jail’s booking line at 208-454-7541.
There may be an automated method of looking them up by their name over the phone, or you may be directed to speak to someone at the jail. Sometimes the jail staff may ask you the offender’s date of birth to ensure privacy of the offender’s status.
Keep in mind that after an arrest, the information on an offender may not be publicly available for several hours.
If you don’t want to check up on an offender by calling the jail, you can also try looking up people recently booked online.
Canyon County Detention Center Booking Roster
After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Canyon County for booking.
Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.
Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Canyon County and other Idaho and USA jurisdictions.
If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.
It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.
The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.
During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.
Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.
At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.
If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Canyon County Detention Center will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.
Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.
Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.
If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.
Call 208-454-7541 to find out the exact bond (plus other fees) amount, or look it up online by looking up the information on the Canyon County inmate locator.
Because Canyon County and Idaho can change their bail bond procedures, it is always best to call either the Canyon County Detention Center at 208-454-7541, or the court in the jurisdiction (i.e. Municipal Court, District Court, etc.) where the offender was charged, and do this right after an arrestee has been booked.
Ask the staff at the Canyon County Detention Center or the Canyon County Court Clerk these specific questions:
If you feel the bail is too high and you wish to get it reduced, contact a lawyer or the defendant's public defender and get them to look into what they can do to get a bail reduction. The sooner you get working on this the quicker you will get your loved one released.
This entire process will go smoother and faster with a criminal attorney or bail agent handling it for you.
