Q: What happens during booking in Kiowa County?

What happens during booking in Kiowa County? 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 Kiowa 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.

Q: What is the booking process like at the Kiowa County Jail?

What is the booking process like at the Kiowa County Jail? 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 Kiowa County and other Oklahoma 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.

Q: What kind of questions are asked during booking?

What kind of questions are asked during booking? 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. What happens with an offender’s personal property during booking? 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. If the offender remains in jail for any length of time, the Kiowa County Jail will allow a friend or family member to pick up the inmate's property if the offender gives written authorization for a named person to do so. To find out the days and times for picking up an inmate's property, and what you will need to bring to verify your identity, call the jail at 580-726-2381 during business hours.

Q: How long does the Kiowa County Jail booking process take?

How long does the Kiowa County Jail booking process take? 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. What happens after an offender is booked into the Kiowa County Jail? 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 Kiowa County Jail 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.

Question 2

About the Kiowa County Jail

Answer

The Kiowi County Sheriff’s Office is responsible for the operations of the Kiowi County Jail. The two share a location for the most efficient operations. An original jail was created in the same area in 1932, but the currently used building has been operational since 1996. To fit the needs of the community, it is a smaller holding facility with beds for 28 detainees. Visitation is permitted for detainees that are held in the location for long enough. All visitors must be approved. JPay.com is the site for adding funds to the account of inmates, and visits can be scheduled by contacting the facility directly. VIsits for family can be booked for weekends between the hours of 9am and 3pm. To determine if someone you know is being detained in this facility, there is an online inmate look up available, or you may call the front desk and request the necessary information. Meals are provided and prescription medication may be provided to the jail for those who need it. They must be in the original package with the correct label and dosage present. Clothing and other items are not allowed to be sent to the jail, but mail can be received by detainees who are still within the facility. Those who are serving long term sentences or who require maximum security may be transferred to larger or more secure facilities to await trial or to serve their sentence. Most of the detainees in this location are awaiting their trial or for their release after a short sentence or making bail.
