Lookup Coos County Jail Inmates

Coos County Jail Overview

Coos County Jail is operated by the Coos County Sheriff's Office and serves as the primary local jail for Coos County. The county uses the Oregon term adults in custody, or AICs, for people held there. The facility holds people arrested or booked by the sheriff's office and local law-enforcement agencies, including pretrial detainees, local sentenced inmates, probation or parole sanctions, and other local holds shown on the public roster.

The official Coos County Jail page is the source for visitation rules, scheduling limits, the jail image, and links to jail lists. The county's alpha roster page points to the live JusticeConnect roster and gives the Booking Division phone number. For historical booking records, photos, and jail reports, the county uses the sheriff records process rather than a public archive of every past booking.

The county jail is distinct from state prison, federal custody, and immigration detention. No current Oregon Department of Corrections prison, BOP prison, ICE detention facility, or federal detention center was verified in Coos County in the research. People sentenced to state prison move into Oregon Department of Corrections systems. Federal and immigration custody use separate federal lookup paths.

The county jail information page shows the facility source used for local visiting rules and roster access.

That official jail page is the best starting point when visitation rules or roster links need to be checked before a trip to Coquille.

Coos County Jail Capacity

Capacity is a key local fact for Coos County Jail. Official county levy materials document 98 beds as the capacity the county sought to preserve through jail funding. The same materials warned that failure of the local option levy could reduce usable capacity by half, to 49 beds. Later sheriff statements reported in local news described the same staffing and funding cycle: a return to 98 beds in 2024, followed by a cut back to 49 after a levy failure.

Those figures should not be read as a live head count. The research did not capture a current official roster count, annual booking count, average daily population, or published demographic dashboard. The safest current wording is that Coos County Jail's usable capacity has recently shifted between 49 and 98 beds. That local capacity issue affects booking, release, classification, and why a person may be cited, released, or moved even after an arrest.

Search Coos County Jail Roster

Current Coos County Jail inmates are searched through the live JusticeConnect Coos County Jail roster. The county links to that roster from its alpha roster page and describes it as live and up to date. The roster is branded for Coos County Jail and includes a keyword search, a View status dropdown, image column, inmate name, age, sex, booked date, scheduled release date, and row-click details.

1. Open the county alpha roster page or go directly to the JusticeConnect Coos County Jail roster.
2. Use the keyword search box for the person's name or visible roster text.
3. Set View to All Inmates first, then narrow by status if needed.
4. Review the visible grid fields, including image, name, age, sex, booked date, and scheduled release date.
5. Select the row to open the inmate detail window and compare charges, docket, bail amount, and facility data.
6. Call the Booking Division at 541-396-7850 if the roster does not answer a current custody question.

The roster detail template can show name, date of birth, age, sex, hair color, eye color, height, weight, booking date, days served or total days, release date, facility, and a charge information table. The charge table can include offense number, offense description, status, arrested by, docket, and bail amount. For a broader explanation of roster fields, see Coos County jail inmate records.

Coos County Jail Contact

Use the jail address for visitation and booking questions, not only the sheriff administrative address. The sheriff's administrative office is listed separately at 250 N. Baxter in Coquille. The jail phone and Booking Division phone are the same public number in the county materials, and visitation scheduling has its own phone line and call window.

For sheriff records, concealed handgun licensing, fingerprinting, or administrative routing, the sheriff page lists 541-396-7800 and warns callers to choose a prompt or the call may ring directly to voicemail. For non-emergency dispatch, use 541-269-8911 ext. 1. Emergencies go to 911.

Coos County Jail Visitation

Coos County Jail social visits are limited and must be arranged before arrival. The county states that an AIC is allowed one half-hour visit per week unless on disciplinary status. The AIC must be incarcerated at least 72 hours before the first visit and must submit a written request to place the visitor on the visitation list. A visit must be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance.

Visitors should not bring cellphones, purses, unauthorized belongings, food, beverages, weapons, explosives, firearms, ammunition, knives, alcohol, narcotics, dangerous drugs, or items that could compromise safety. Clothing must be conventional, not unduly suggestive, and not similar to jail uniforms. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or approved adult visitor. The jail supervisor may terminate or cancel a visit for rule violations or safety needs.

Note: Confirm approval and scheduling with Coos County Jail before traveling, because unscheduled or unapproved visits may be refused.

Coos County Jail Services

The official Coos County Jail page did not publish a complete inmate mail format, phone vendor, video visitation vendor, tablet vendor, commissary vendor, deposit vendor, or deposit fee table in the research. Those gaps matter. State prison vendors listed by ODOC should not be copied onto a county jail page unless the jail confirms that the same vendor applies. For Coos County Jail, confirm the current rules with the jail before mailing items or sending funds.

Attorney and professional visits are normally handled apart from social visitation, but no separate Coos County attorney-visitation rule was located on the jail page. The county jail menu links a Clergy Visit Application, which suggests a formal clergy process, but the form details were not part of the inspected research. Use the jail phone for the current procedure.

Coos County Jail Booking

The Coos County Jail booking path begins when a person is arrested by the sheriff's office, Coos Bay Police, North Bend Police, Bandon Police, Oregon State Police, or another law-enforcement agency and is transported to the jail unless cited and released or diverted under Oregon pretrial-release rules. At the jail, the person is entered into the jail management system that feeds the roster.

The typical intake path includes custody transfer, identity check, property inventory, search, medical or mental-health screening, fingerprints, booking photo, entry of arresting agency and charges, preliminary status coding, release or bail review, classification, and housing assignment or release. Coos County does not publish a detailed public booking-process manual or exact booking-time averages. The county describes its roster as live and up to date, but no exact refresh interval was located.

Booking charges can change after prosecutor review. A person may show on the roster with a docket or bail amount before the court record fully reflects later amendments, dismissals, or filed charges. For the court side after a booking, use Coos County court records after jail arrest.

Coos County Jail Directions

Coos County Jail is in central Coquille near the courthouse and sheriff's office area. Visitors should use the jail address for visitation and booking questions. The sheriff administrative address is nearby but separate, so using the wrong address can waste the scheduled visit window.

From Coos Bay or North Bend, the main approach is generally south and east toward Coquille on OR-42 or OR-42S corridors, then into downtown Coquille. From Bandon and the south coast, the usual route is north and east toward Coquille by local highway routes. From Myrtle Point or inland Coos County, visitors generally approach west toward Coquille and then follow local downtown streets to E. 2nd Street.

The official jail page does not publish turn-by-turn directions, parking rates, transit-route numbers, or a jail-specific ADA entrance description. Confirm visitor parking, entry location, and any accessibility needs with the jail before leaving, especially because visits must be approved and scheduled in advance.

Coos County Jail Transfers

Coos County Jail is for local custody. It is not the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, or ICE. If a person is sentenced to more than local jail custody and committed to ODOC, the county roster is no longer the authoritative location tool. Use Oregon Offender Search for sentenced state prisoners and VISOR for custody notification.

Oregon DOC prison visiting, mail, phone, and money rules are separate from Coos County Jail rules. ODOC visiting requires application and approval, and ODOC vendor references do not prove what the county jail uses. Federal and ICE locators also have their own limits and do not publish the same local jail fields.

Coos County Jail Records

For records rather than live custody status, use the Coos County Sheriff's Office Records Request Webform. The form includes Booking/Jail Records Reports, photo requests, police reports, CAD reports, and other report types. Requesters should be specific and include full names, incident or booking date, case number if known, victim or suspect names when relevant, and the reason for the request.

Fees may apply before processing. The sheriff records page lists reports, digital photos, print photos, staff research and redaction time, video processing time, county-supplied USB drives, County Counsel review, postage, overtime, and other costs for burdensome requests. Oregon public-records law gives access to non-exempt public records, but Oregon booking-photo law restricts release of many booking photos before conviction except for listed circumstances.
