Floyd County Jail Recent Bookings And Arrests
Arrests and Booking
Booking at the Floyd County Jail
Deputies, Charles City officers and Nora Springs police all book arrests into the LEC on South Main Street. The listing describes intake roughly like this:
- Confirming the name. The first job at the Floyd County intake desk is pinning down who has been brought in.
- Ink, or a scanner, and a camera. Prints go to the state under section 690.2 and a mugshot is taken at the LEC.
- Medical screen and record check. What the arrestee says about health and past charges shapes where the person sleeps in the LEC.
- Possible DNA swab. Some offenses call for a sample under Iowa law, per the listing.
- Wallet, keys and phone bagged. Staff list what the person carried and hold it until the day of release.
- The phone at intake. Section 804.20 guarantees that chance; Floyd County records every inmate line except privileged conversations with counsel.
- First appearance upstairs. Section 804.21 requires prompt presentation to a magistrate, which for Charles City arrests means the courthouse next door.
The Charles City bail page covers what release costs after a Floyd County booking.
