Sherman County Jail

Offenders arrested for misdemeanors and felonies in this county are brought to the NORCOR Jail for booking and processing, and if their crime requires it, are incarcerated until they either get bail or are released from custody on their own recognizance.

Those who are found guilty and sentenced to a term of less than one year, will do their time in NORCOR. Those sentenced to longer terms will be sent to either the Oregon State Prison System or the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

It's always a good idea to find out and save the inmate's jail ID number or booking number as you may need this for sending mail or other communication needs. If you can't locate it online, you can call NORCOR at 541-298-1576 to get it.

In accordance with Oregon law requiring each sheriff's office to maintain a county jail facility, the Sherman County Sheriff has a small facility used for holding offenders and those who have been arrested. This is the main booking facility for the area and each arrest is processed through this facility then held for their arraignment, until bail can be paid, or they are to be transferred or released. Even though stays are often short, there are both phone calls and visiting hours provided for any inmate to maintain their relationships outside of the jail. Visits are completed with a video call system that is open 8 am until midnight for remote visits that are completed online. For on site video visits it is necessary to arrive early, follow the same dress code as remote and in person visits, and to confirm the day of the visit that the time is available as inmates may lose their phone privileges or times may need to be changed. On site visits are available on Monday and Thursday from 3:30 until 4:30. Personal items are not to be dropped off, but prescription medication that is correctly labelled may be provided to the desk in the lobby for distribution to the appropriate inmate. To contact an inmate an email program has been created and can be accessed at inmatecanteen.com, which is the same site used for the video visits. Commissary items can also be purchased from this website and delivered to the inmate directly.

What is the booking process for the Sherman County Jail?

After being arrested, the offender is brought to the Sherman County Jail for booking, which is the detailed process of identifying, classifying, deciding on charges, and whether the person will either be released on their own recognizance, allowed to be released on bail, or moved into the jail until their court date.

The first thing every newly arrested person must do is close their mouth. Everything an offender says may be used against them, so the best thing to do is remain silent when questioned about the arrest and what led to it.

These are the steps of booking someone into the Sherman County Jail:

  • Personal identification.
  • Mugshot(s).
  • Questions about medical history, mental health, drug and alcohol use, and gang affiliations.
  • Possible DNA.
  • Full body search.
  • Property forfeiture.
  • Free phone call.

If you have any questions about when you can pay an offender's bond and what the cost will be, call the facility at 541-298-1576.

How do you pay bail for someone who has been arrested in Sherman County?

When an offender is arrested and brought to the Sherman County Jail in Moro for booking, there are several outcomes after being processed.

1. The offender will be released with no bail, promising to return on a specific date to appear before a judge in either Municipal or Sherman County Court.
2. The offender is ordered to remain in jail until their court date.
3. The offender is allowed to be released after paying a specified bond or bail.  Call 541-298-1576 to get the exact amount.

The payment of an offender's bail or bond can take many shapes.

  • A cash bond is paid in full at the jail's bonding window or the clerk of court, usually by cash, cashier's check or money order, and many jails also take debit or credit cards through a lobby kiosk or an online bond vendor for an added fee; bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and the jail's number is 541-298-1576.
  • It can be paid using a bail company, licensed to do business in Sherman County.
  • Many courts accept land or a home as bond collateral; the owner shows clear title and equity of at least the bond amount, often double, using a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, and the court that set bail approves the property.
