Grant County Jail Records Start Locally
No official current online Grant County or Sheridan jail roster was found on the county site, the City of Sheridan police pages, or the official detention center page. The Sheridan Detention Center page gives facility facts and contact information, but it does not publish inmate profiles, a recent booking report, a public mugshot gallery, or a searchable jail roster. That point matters because Grant County inmate records cannot be treated as if a local roster field set exists online. The first live custody question is still local, but the answer usually starts with a phone call or records request.
The primary local facility is the Sheridan Detention Center, a City of Sheridan Police Department operated detention center that serves Sheridan and Grant County custody needs. Grant County Sheriff Pete Roberts is the county sheriff, but the official facility source describes the detention center through the city police department. Police Chief Jason Teague is listed on the Sheridan police page. The facility holds male and female inmates for local, state, and federal agencies, so a Grant County arrest, a Sheridan city arrest, and some agency holds may all route through the same building.
Local roster status: Official local sources reviewed did not publish a Grant County current inmate roster. Use the detention phone, VINELink, Search ARCourts, Arkansas DOC, BOP, ICE, or a written records request based on the custody type.
Search Grant County Jail Records
The best Grant County inmate lookup path depends on what happened to the person after arrest. A new arrest may not have a filed court case yet. A sentenced person may have moved into Arkansas DOC custody. A federal or immigration hold may be tracked outside the county. Use the local jail first only when the question is current local custody or a requestable booking record. Then move outward to VINE, court, state prison, federal, and immigration systems.
- Call Sheridan Detention Center at (870) 942-5512 with the person's full name and date of birth if known. Ask only for current custody and release or transfer status.
- For city-police or detention-building questions, use the Sheridan Police Department non-emergency line at (870) 942-4642. Use 911 only for emergencies.
- Check VINELink Arkansas for custody notification coverage when a person may be in county jail or state custody.
- Search Search ARCourts after charges are filed. Court records can show parties, filings, charges, dispositions, future events, judgments, and some documents.
- Use Arkansas DOC Inmate Search for sentenced state prisoners, Grant County Waiting List records, Sheridan City 309-In Jail labels, and Sheridan City Jail labels.
- Use the BOP inmate locator for federal sentenced custody and ICE ODLS for current immigration detention.
- If the record is not online, make a specific written Arkansas FOIA request to the records custodian for the booking sheet, arrest report, booking photo if releasable, bond status, or release record.
No official Grant County Sheriff or Sheridan Police mobile app with an inmate roster or warrant lookup was located in the sources reviewed; use the detention center phone, VINE, Search ARCourts, Arkansas DOC, BOP, and ICE as appropriate.
Grant County Inmate Search Fields
Because no official local roster form was found, Grant County inmate records need a fallback search-field table. The fields below show what a caller or requester should gather for the local detention channel and what the main statewide tools accept. The Arkansas DOC table is especially important because the public DOC search includes Grant County as a county filter and includes facility labels tied to Sheridan and Grant County custody status.
| Lookup Channel | Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sheridan Detention Center | Full name | Needed for phone inquiry | Use the detention center for current local custody, release, transfer, and bond-status questions. |
| Sheridan Detention Center | Date of birth or arrest date | Helpful | Helps staff separate people with similar names. Do not send sensitive details through casual web forms. |
| Arkansas DOC | ADC Number | Optional | Most precise DOC search field when the state number is known. |
| Arkansas DOC | County | Optional | The county dropdown includes Grant. It is useful for Grant-origin state custody records. |
| Arkansas DOC | Facility | Optional | Relevant options observed include Grant County Waiting List, Sheridan City 309-In Jail, and Sheridan City Jail. |
| Arkansas DOC | Name, age, race, offense category | Optional | DOC also has last name, first name, age with comparator, race, offense category, and an agreement checkbox. |
| Search ARCourts | Participant or case number | Path dependent | Use after a court case is filed. The court portal is not a jail booking roster. |
| BOP | Register number or name | Path dependent | BOP covers federal inmates from 1982 to present, not local Grant County jail bookings. |
| ICE ODLS | A-number/country or biographical details | Path dependent | ICE ODLS locates people detained by ICE. It is not a mugshot or county jail search. |
The Arkansas DOC search form is the best documented search screen in the research. It includes ADC number, county, last name, first name, facility, offense category, age, race, an agreement checkbox, and a full database download link. A DOC result may be useful when a person has left Sheridan Detention Center or is waiting for a state bed, but it should not be used as proof that a new pretrial booking is absent from local custody.
Grant County Inmate Record Fields
A true Grant County public jail profile could not be inspected because no local public roster was located. Local booking-record material may still be requestable from the agency that made or holds the record. A request may seek the booking name, arresting agency, booking date and time, listed charges, bond, release or transfer status, and booking photo where release is lawful. Those are requestable record categories, not fields shown on an official Grant County online roster.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking name | The name used when the person was booked into local custody. |
| Arresting agency | The agency that brought the person to jail, such as Sheridan Police, the sheriff, state police, or another authority. |
| Booking date and time | The intake time if it is included in the releasable booking record. |
| Charges | Initial custody or arrest labels. Formal court charges may differ after prosecutor review. |
| Bond or hold status | Whether a listed bond, no-bond hold, detainer, or court appearance issue affects release. |
| Release or transfer status | Whether the person remains held, was released, moved to DOC, or transferred to another agency. |
| Booking photo | A law-enforcement booking image when it exists and is not exempt, sealed, juvenile, medical, or investigation-sensitive. |
DOC profiles are different. Arkansas DOC public profiles can show a photo, ADC number, name, race, sex, hair, eyes, height, weight, birth date, initial receipt date, current facility, facility address, mailing address, custody classification, Good Time Class, PE/TE date, Total Time, ADC incarcerations, aliases, scars or tattoos, sentence history, VINE, print, trust payment, and phone payment links. That is a prison record, not a Sheridan Detention Center booking sheet.
The Arkansas DOC inmate search page is shown in the captured source image below. It is useful when a Grant County case has moved into state custody or a state waiting-list label, but it does not create a local Grant County booking roster.
Use the DOC photo and sentence fields only for state custody. For local jail booking records, contact the custodian that holds the Sheridan or Grant County arrest record.
Grant County Jail Contact Card
The official city detention page makes the Sheridan Detention Center the strongest local custody contact. The building is separate from the Grant County courthouse, so visitors should not route to the courthouse for jail visiting, jail phone questions, or custody confirmation. Court and clerk tasks use other Sheridan addresses. Custody and detention questions start with the police/detention building.
Sheridan Detention Center

The official Sheridan detention source says the center was built in 1998, opened with 36 beds, expanded in 2000, and now has capacity for approximately 100 inmates. It also says the facility has sixteen employees and houses male and female inmates for local, state, and federal agencies. Those details support custody routing, but they do not replace a roster.
Grant County Custody Search Differences
A Grant County jail record, an Arkansas DOC profile, a federal BOP locator result, and an ICE ODLS record answer different questions. A person booked after arrest may be held locally before court. A person sentenced to prison may show in DOC. A federal defendant may be under U.S. Marshals custody before BOP designation. An immigration detainee may appear in ICE ODLS. These systems can overlap in time, so a failed search in one place is not a final answer.
| Custody Type | Where to Look | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Current local jail custody | Sheridan Detention Center phone | New arrests, release status, bondability, agency holds, and transfer questions. |
| Filed court case | Search ARCourts or local clerk | Charges, dispositions, court dates, judgments, and public court documents. |
| State prison or ADC waiting list | Arkansas DOC Inmate Search | Sentenced state custody, Grant County Waiting List, Sheridan City 309-In Jail, and Sheridan City Jail labels. |
| Federal sentenced custody | BOP inmate locator | Federal records from 1982 to present, release date, location, and register number. |
| Immigration detention | ICE ODLS | Current ICE custody searches by A-number/country or biographical details. |
A detainer is a hold or notice from another agency that may affect release. Act 309 is an Arkansas DOC-related jail or work label that can appear in state search contexts. Classification is the custody or security assessment used by a jail or prison to decide placement. These terms are common in inmate records, but the deciding agency and record system matter more than the label alone.
Grant County Jail Visit Records
Official Sheridan and Grant County sources did not publish a local visitation schedule, mail policy, phone vendor, video-visit vendor, commissary vendor, or money-deposit fee table. Do not assume a statewide prison rule applies to Sheridan Detention Center. Arkansas DOC family and friends rules apply to state prison custody after a person enters DOC, not to every new Grant County jail booking.
| Topic | Official Local Source Found | What to Confirm by Phone |
|---|---|---|
| In-person visits | Not published | Eligibility, day, time, visitor list, photo ID, dress rules, children, and prohibited items. |
| Video visits | Not published | Whether onsite or remote video exists and whether an account is required. |
| Not published | Exact mailing format, booking number need, postcard or envelope rules, photos, books, and legal mail. | |
| Commissary | Not published | Whether commissary is available, order cutoff, spending limit, and transfer handling. |
| Money deposits | Not published | Accepted payment channels, fees, refund rules, cash rules, and vendor name if any. |
| Phone calls | Not published | Provider, account setup, blocked-number rules, rates, and call restrictions. |
Note: Confirm custody and facility rules before sending mail, money, or planning travel, because official local policies were not posted online.
Grant County Bond Records
Sheridan publishes an official bond sheet under the police department section. The linked document lists offense-specific amounts and states that highlighted items indicate mandatory court appearance, but text extraction did not preserve the highlights. The sheet is a local reference, not a release guarantee. Jail or court staff must confirm whether the person is bondable, whether a hold or detainer blocks release, where payment is accepted, and whether court appearance is required.
| Example Item | Amount Shown |
|---|---|
| Assault 1st | $840 |
| Battery 3rd | $565 |
| Disorderly Conduct | $340 |
| DWI #1 Alcohol | $1,120 |
| Possession Controlled Substance #1 | $965 |
| Public Intoxication | $340 |
| Resisting Arrest | $540 |
For court records after a booking, use Search ARCourts and the local clerk rather than relying only on a jail charge label. Booking charges can change when the prosecutor files, amends, or declines charges in court.
Request Grant County Booking Records
Arkansas FOIA is the formal fallback when Grant County inmate records are not posted online. Ark. Code § 25-19-103 defines public records broadly. Ark. Code § 25-19-105 provides inspection and copying access unless an exemption applies. Law-enforcement investigation records, juvenile information, medical details, sealed records, security-sensitive details, and court-rule limits may restrict access.
A useful request identifies the person, date of arrest or booking, arresting agency, case number if known, and the exact record sought. Ask for the booking sheet, booking photograph if releasable, arrest or incident report, bond status, and release or transfer status. Keep the request narrow enough for the custodian to locate the record. If current custody is the main question, call the detention center first rather than sending sensitive personal details through a general web form.
Sealed records follow a different path. Ark. Code § 16-90-1409 addresses petitions to seal certain arrest records. Ark. Code § 16-90-1413 covers sealing procedure and access limits after sealing. A sealed record may be restricted from general public access even when the old booking or case once existed.
