Brad Shutts is Jasper County sheriff, and his deputies and jailers work out of one Newton building at 2300 Law Center Dr., Newton, IA 50208. Wendy Hecox runs the jail as chief jailer, with Jake Clymer as her assistant; the visitation page routes rule questions to them at 641-791-7081. The jail holds adults arrested by Shutts's deputies and by police in Newton, Colfax and the county's other towns while their cases move through the Fifth Judicial District court in Newton. For non-jail sheriff business, dial 641-792-5912.
What families need first: call 641-791-7081 to confirm the person was booked and ask about bond, then open an Access Corrections account (online, 866-345-1884 or the lobby kiosk) so the inmate can buy commissary and pay for calls.
