Leavenworth County Jail Inmate Roster and Mugshots, Leavenworth, KS

To search for an inmate here, open the sheriff's inmate roster, accept the short disclaimer, and search by name or sort by booking date. Each entry gives the booking number, age, booking date, every charge with its Kansas statute and level, and the bond with its type, and View Profile shows the mugshot. A Released tab covers people who have left the jail in the Justice Center at 601 S. Third St. The sheriff answers at 913-682-5724 or 913-682-1313 around the clock, VINELink adds release alerts, and filed cases are on Kansas CaseSearch.

↑ Back to the question list

2. Who is held in the county jail?

The jail holds people charged and awaiting trial, people arrested on warrants, people serving sentences from the district and city courts, people on parole or probation holds, people sentenced to state prison who are waiting for a KDOC bed or a community corrections slot, and people held for other agencies. A roster line marked "Extradition" is someone held for another state.

↑ Back to the question list

3. How do I read the roster's bond column?

Bond is listed as an amount plus a type. "No Bond - $0.00 - Warrant" means the person is held on a warrant whose bond has not been set or which carries no bond, and "No Bond - Statute" means the law requires a judge to see the person before release. The roster is long, often six pages, and the newest bookings come first. If a name does not show, try the Released tab or call 913-682-5724.

4. Can I see booking photos?

Yes. View Profile on a roster entry brings up the booking photo next to the charges, for current inmates and recent releases. For an older photo or a full booking record, file a Kansas Open Records Act request (K.S.A. 45-215) using the sheriff's open records request form; the sheriff's KORA FAQ explains fees. ICE booking photos require an ICE FOIA request, and federal booking photos are released only for fugitives the U.S. Marshals publish.

5. Finding out about a warrant in Leavenworth

The Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office serves warrants countywide, and deputies will check a name at 913-682-5724. Kansas doesn't let the public search warrants statewide, but cases from the courthouse in Leavenworth are on Kansas CaseSearch, where a bench warrant appears. Most people put a warrant behind them with a surrender at the Leavenworth County Jail, timed by their lawyer. After a missed hearing, Suite 3051 at 601 S. 3rd St., Leavenworth, is the district court clerk's office, reachable at 913-684-0700.

6. Where is bond paid, and in what form?

Bonds are posted in the Bonding Room, reached from Second Street behind the sally port loop (no parking in that loop). Bring the exact amount if paying cash, because jail staff do not make change, or pay by card online or at 877-392-2455. The sheriff posts the authorized bonding companies for the district court and the four city courts; some are approved for city cases only. By K.S.A. 22-2809b an agent's minimum premium is 10% of the bond, and the agent signs the bond in person at the jail. Our bail page has more.

7. Can a bond come with rules?

When the charge is a person felony or person misdemeanor, contact with the alleged victim is barred for 72 hours or more unless the judge finds otherwise.
