Where to Look First
Use the type of question to choose the right path before you call or request records.
- For someone who may be in the county jail, use jail inmate records guidance and call Gem County Jail at 208-365-4484.
- For booking-photo access and limits, review jail roster mugshots before making a records request.
- For charges, hearings, copies, or audio after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and contact Gem County Court.
- For facility address, visitation, mail, or deposit context, see Gem County Detention Center.
- For a sentenced Idaho prisoner or a person on IDOC supervision, use the Idaho Department of Correction Resident/Client Search rather than the county jail phone.
- For a federal prisoner or immigration detainee, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
