Arrests and Booking

Booking at the Fayette County Correctional Center

Deputies and the police in Oelwein, West Union and the smaller Fayette County towns bring arrests to Industrial Parkway, where intake follows the steps JE describes:

  1. Name and ID checked against the arrest paperwork.
  2. Fingerprint cards and a photograph, which section 690.2 has the Fayette County jailers submit to DCI.
  3. Health and history screening to choose a housing unit.
  4. A DNA swab for qualifying offenses.
  5. Property stored. When an inmate leaves for prison, a designated person may collect it; anything not picked up within 30 days of notice is destroyed.
  6. County fees. Fayette County's sheriff lists two jail charges, for booking and for each day held, that are billed only once a sentence is imposed.
  7. West Union magistrate. An initial appearance follows without needless delay, which section 804.21 demands.

The clerk's certificate and after-hours cash process are on the Fayette County Correctional Center bail page.
