About the Sherman County Sheriff
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.

Sherman County Sheriff Booking Roster

What happens during booking in Sherman County?

After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Sherman County for booking.

Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.

What is the booking process like at the Sherman County Sheriff?

Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Sherman County and other Oregon and USA jurisdictions.

If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.

It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.

What kind of questions are asked during booking?

The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.

What happens to an offender’s personal property during booking?

During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.

Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.

What happens after booking?

At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.

If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Sherman County Sheriff will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.

Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.

How long does the Sherman County Sheriff Booking process take?

Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.

If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.
