Henry County Jail Roster Basics
The official Henry County jail roster is run through the Henry County Sheriff's Office inmate search and an OCV feed used by the sheriff's website and mobile app. The roster is for the Henry County Jail / Henry County Detention Center in Clinton. It lists current public entries for people held by the sheriff's office, Clinton Police Department, Missouri State Highway Patrol, and other agencies that lodge or house detainees there. Research found no separate public municipal jail roster for Clinton or smaller Henry County communities, so local arrests normally route back to the Henry County jail roster.
The roster is not a full criminal history. It is a current custody tool. It can show people booked on new allegations, people held on warrants, court commits, probation or parole detainers, out-of-state matters, and housing entries for other counties. A person sentenced to the Missouri Department of Corrections should be checked in the MODOC offender search instead. Federal sentenced prisoners use the Bureau of Prisons locator, and immigration custody uses ICE ODLS. Missouri VINELink is separate from the roster and is useful for custody notifications.
Use the Henry County Inmate Roster
The roster can be searched by name or text that appears in the public feed. Results display as cards, with the title formatted as last name first. Open the card to read the booking fields and charge rows. The sheriff route does not require a public login in the research, and the OCV configuration showed search and sort controls with a date-descending default.
- Open the official sheriff inmate search page or the OCV inmate feed used by Henry County.
- Use the search box when it appears. Last name, first name, or charge text may help narrow the feed.
- Read the card title and booking date before assuming the person is the right match.
- Open the inmate card and compare Inmate ID, age, sex, arresting agency, charges, bond text, and any listed court date.
- If the person is missing after a recent arrest, call the jail or Central Dispatch, then check Case.net for filed court charges.
The roster may publish same-day bookings, but the sheriff did not publish a fixed refresh schedule or a rule for how long released people remain visible. For that reason, a missing result should not be read as proof that no arrest occurred. New bookings, transfers, releases, court holds, and records restrictions can change what the public feed shows.
Henry County Roster Search Fields
The Henry County feed is compact. It exposes a search control and sort option rather than a long advanced-search form. The useful work happens after a card is opened, because the public card combines custody fields, charge lines, bond amounts, and sometimes a court date. The field list below reflects the official OCV configuration and inspected roster behavior.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search | Text | No | Search is enabled in the OCV feed and likely filters names or text shown in inmate cards. |
| Sort | Dropdown or control | No | The manifest shows sorting enabled with date-descending as the default. |
| Inmate list card | Result item | Not applicable | The title is the inmate name in last-name-first format. |
| Open item | Card action | Not applicable | Opening or expanding the card displays inmate data, photo, charges, bond text, and any listed court date. |
The official sheriff inmate search interface is shown in the captured roster screenshot.
That interface is the county-level starting point for local jail custody, while the linked feed supplies the current inmate cards behind it.
Henry County Inmate Record Fields
A Henry County inmate record is brief but useful. It does not publish a full public profile with date of birth, address, height, weight, hair color, eye color, housing pod, booking officer, or release calculation. It does publish enough detail to compare a possible match against a known arrest date, agency, and charge. Bond is embedded in the charge row, and a value of 0.00 should not be treated as proof of release eligibility.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Title / Name | Name in all caps, last name first. |
| Inmate ID | Numeric jail or booking identifier assigned to the person. |
| Age, Race, Sex | Public age plus race and sex values or codes; full date of birth is not shown. |
| Booking Date | Booking date and time in month/day/year and time format. |
| Arresting Agency | Agency that arrested, booked, or lodged the person, such as the sheriff, Clinton police, MSHP, St. Clair County, or OTHER. |
| Charges and Bond | Charge text followed by bond amount and, on some rows, a court date and time. |
| Mugshot | One booking image per card when the photo is available through the OCV image path. |
| Release or Housing | Not shown as a separate public field in the inspected feed. |
The OCV inmate feed screenshot shows the card style and the way charge snippets and booking photos appear together.
The same card format explains why a court record search is still needed after booking: roster charge text can differ from the prosecutor's later filing.
Henry County Custody Lookup Paths
Henry County inmate records split by custody type. The county roster is for local detention, including pretrial detainees and local sentenced detainees. The Missouri Department of Corrections search covers active state offenders, including probationers and parolees, and it searches first and last names including aliases. It excludes discharged offenders and can omit certain records for safety, security, or confidentiality. Federal and immigration systems are separate.
| Custody question | Where to look | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| Current county jail custody | Henry County jail roster | Recent arrests, local holds, court commits, and other-agency housing at the county jail. |
| Sentenced Missouri prison or supervision | MODOC Offender Search | Active state offenders, probationers, parolees, and alias searches. |
| Federal sentenced custody | BOP Inmate Locator | Federal prisoners and BOP release records covered by the locator. |
| Immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | Search by A-number and country of birth or biographical fields. |
| Custody notification | Missouri VINELink | Custody status and notification registration where available. |
County versus state: Henry County jail records are not the same as Missouri prison records. Once a sentenced person transfers to DOC custody, MODOC becomes the better locator.
Henry County Jail Contact Card
Only one public detention facility was identified inside Henry County from the project research. The Henry County Jail / Henry County Detention Center is operated by the sheriff's office and is the place to check for current local custody. The same location is used in research for inmate mail, property pickup, sheriff business, and records requests. Visitor parking, entry door details, and accessibility specifics were not published, so those details should be confirmed before arrival.
Henry County Jail / Henry County Detention Center
200 N. Main Street
Clinton, MO 64735
660-885-7300
Central Dispatch / jail information: 660-885-5587
On-site video visitation: Monday-Friday, 9 AM-4 PM
The sheriff's official contact card also lists the jail and sheriff's office as open 24 hours, while business-hour FAQ material gives weekday office hours for sheriff office business. For a custody question, use the jail line first. For a report copy or closed record issue, route the request to the records custodian.
Henry County Booking Records
Booking starts after an arrest by the sheriff, Clinton Police Department, Missouri State Highway Patrol, or another agency that lodges the person at the jail. The public roster shows the products of that intake process: Inmate ID, booking date and time, booking photo, age, race, sex, arresting agency, charges, bond amounts, and sometimes a court date. Property may be held by the jail. Later property pickup requires the inmate to designate the recipient, and the recipient must bring a valid physical photo ID. Digital copies or phone photos of an ID are not accepted.
Booking data is not the same as a filed court case. After arrest, the Henry County Prosecuting Attorney decides whether formal charges are filed, changed, reduced, or dismissed. Case.net and the Henry County Circuit Clerk are the better sources for the court case that follows a booking. A roster charge may be a holding label, warrant label, detainer, or initial booking allegation. That is why a roster row should be paired with court and jail confirmation before bond, travel, or court-date plans are made.
Henry County Visitation Schedule
Henry County uses on-site video visitation through Inmate Canteen. The official visitation page says visitors need a photo ID and an email address that can be used to sign up for an account. If already registered, visitors should bring login information. The kiosk is in the glass-doored lobby of the sheriff's office, in the corner to the left after entry. Visits are short, so the inmate's current custody status should be confirmed before travel.
| Visit type | Schedule | Length and frequency | Registration | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| On-site video kiosk | Monday-Friday, 9 AM-4 PM | 15 minutes, once weekly per inmate | Inmate Canteen | Bring photo ID and email or account login; kiosk is in the left corner of the glass-doored lobby. |
The official visitation information source is captured in the visitation screenshot.
The published visit window applies to both male and female inmates in the source reviewed, with no separate weekend schedule listed.
Henry County Inmate Contact Rules
Mail should be addressed to the inmate's full name at Henry County Jail, 200 N Main St, Clinton, MO 64735. The official jail FAQ did not publish postcard-only rules, mail-scanning details, banned-item lists, book-ordering rules, legal-mail handling, or photo limits in the sources inspected. Because mail rules can change faster than page text, the jail should be called before sending anything with photos, books, money, or third-party packaging.
Inmate phones are handled through CIDNET. Commissary deposits are handled through Inmate Canteen online, in person at the jail or sheriff's office by cash or debit card, or by mailed money order. No official fee table or call-rate table was located. The jail FAQ also states that the jail does not accept messages for inmates, so urgent family information may not be relayed through staff.
Henry County Records Request Fallback
When the roster does not answer the question, the official records path is the Henry County Sheriff's Office Custodian of Records. Sheriff Aaron Brown has designated Captain Rob Hills as custodian under Missouri Sunshine Law. Written requests go to Henry County Sheriff's Office, Attention: Custodian of Records, C/O Captain Rob Hills, 200 North Main Street, Clinton, MO 64735. The research also lists rhills@henrymosheriff.gov and 660-885-7300 for this records channel.
The sheriff's General Info page says written requests are addressed as quickly as possible and no later than the third business day after receipt. If more time is needed because of the request's size or complexity, the requester receives a written explanation and the earliest available date. If the request is denied, the denial should include a written legal basis within the same timeline. The app's report-copy form also states that report-copy processing may take up to seven business days.
Note: Confirm custody with the jail before sending money, visiting, or treating a roster bond value as final release authority.
Henry County Sheriff App
The official Henry Co. Sheriff's Office, MO app is part of the local access chain. It includes Inmate Search, Visitation Info, Money On Books, Accepted Bond Companies, Jail FAQs, General Info, Submit Request, staff directory, Most Wanted, Sex Offenders, Submit a Tip, news, and Monthly Brief. The Apple app listing identifies the app as Henry Co. Sheriff's Office, MO, and the Google Play listing uses package com.ocv.a1456. The app is not for emergencies; the listing says to call 911 for emergencies.
The app matters because it brings several jail-record functions into one place. The roster, records request form, staff directory, visitation source, bond-company list, and monthly population reports are tied to the same OCV app system used by the sheriff's website. The Most Wanted feature was present, but the feed was empty when inspected. For Clinton Police Department arrests, the Henry County roster remains the custody lookup path because those arrests can appear under the arresting agency field on the county jail feed.
