Logan County Jail Overview
The official Logan County Detention Center page identifies the facility as the county jail operated through the Logan County Sheriff's Office. It is the local custody point for people booked after arrest in Sterling or elsewhere in Logan County, and it also handles practical jail matters such as video visitation, inmate money, jail payment, phone calls, mail, and bond information. The same county page does not publish a public current-inmate roster, recent booking feed, bed count, housing-unit list, or daily population figure.
The facility should be kept separate from Sterling Correctional Facility. Logan County Detention Center handles county jail custody, including pretrial detainees and local sentenced inmates. Sterling Correctional Facility is a Colorado Department of Corrections prison for sentenced state prisoners. A person may move from the county jail path to CDOC after conviction and sentencing, but the lookup system changes when that happens. Logan County also notes that out-of-county sentenced custody can be arranged by contacting the jail, so not every person housed here necessarily began with a Logan County arrest.
The county's main detention center source is the page that publishes video visitation, JailATM, bond payment, phone, mail, and out-of-county custody details.
That page is also useful for spotting what Logan County does not publish, including a public roster, current count, or official booking-photo gallery.
The county detention navigation page shows the local detention section that connects the jail, fingerprinting, and jail payment resources.
That navigation matters because Logan County spreads jail tasks across the detention page, payment page, records page, and sheriff contact pages instead of offering one all-purpose roster screen.
Logan County Inmate Lookup Steps
No official Logan County public jail roster was located on the county website in the research file. That changes the order of a Logan County inmate search. The first route is the jail phone option listed by the sheriff, not a name-search form. If staff cannot release the information by phone or the caller needs a document, the next route is a sheriff records request. Court records are the better route for filed charges, bond hearings, and case dates. State, federal, immigration, and VINELink searches apply only when the custody system has changed or the person is not in the county jail.
- Gather the full legal name, date of birth or age, arrest date, and arresting agency if known.
- Call the Logan County Sheriff's Office main line and choose option 2 for Logan Jail.
- Ask whether the person is currently in Logan County Detention Center custody and whether bond or court advisement information is available.
- Use the sheriff records request process for a booking record, incident report, jail fee record, or booking-photo request.
- Use Logan County Combined Courts for filed charges, docket dates, and court records after a jail arrest.
- Search CDOC, BOP, ICE ODLS, or VINELink if the person was transferred, sentenced, federally held, in immigration custody, or needs custody-status alerts.
| Lookup channel | Best use | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Jail phone option | Current county jail custody and basic jail information | No public web field list is published. |
| Sheriff records request | Booking records, incident reports, photos, videos, and criminal justice records | Records may be redacted or denied under Colorado law. |
| Logan County Combined Courts | Filed charges, court dates, records requests, and bond-hearing context | Jail intake charges can differ from filed charges. |
| CDOC locator | Sentenced state prisoners | Does not cover unsentenced county jail detainees. |
| BOP and ICE ODLS | Federal prison or immigration detention questions | These are not Logan County jail roster tools. |
For broader county custody lookup guidance, the Logan County jail inmate records page separates the jail phone path from court, CDOC, BOP, ICE, and VINELink records.
Logan County Jail Contact
The strongest published contact route is the sheriff's office phone menu. The Logan County Sheriff's Office contact page names Sheriff Brett Powell, lists the Riverview Road office address, and gives weekday public office hours. The staff directory also labels option 2 through the main number as Logan Jail. Use that option for detention questions instead of calling a court clerk or a state prison switchboard.

Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The sheriff contact source shows the office card, hours, and phone menu used for jail routing.
The published phone menu is important because it is the county's practical substitute for a public Logan County jail roster search form.
Logan County Jail Visitation
Logan County's detention page says all visitation is video visitation. It points users to Inmate Sales and tells them to call the jail option for more information. The county research did not locate a weekly schedule, visit length, attorney-visit procedure, visitor approval checklist, dress-code list, or public in-person social visit window on the official Colorado county page. That means visitors should not assume a walk-in visit is available at the jail lobby.
| Visit type | Published status | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Social visits | Video visitation only | Confirm schedule and account setup through Inmate Sales or the jail. |
| In-person social visits | Not published as available | Do not arrive expecting a walk-in social visit. |
| Attorney visits | Not published on the official page reviewed | Attorneys should contact the facility directly. |
| Visitor hours | Not published by day or time | Confirm current video availability before scheduling. |
Note: Video visitation rules and availability can change faster than static county pages, so confirm the session before making plans.
Logan County Mail and Money
Mail and money rules are published in more detail than the jail roster. Mail must show the sender's full name and return address. It must also show the inmate's full name with the Logan County Detention Center address. The county page says Amazon items are no longer accepted. For inmate money, money orders are no longer accepted for inmates. Deposits go through the jail lobby kiosk or JailATM. Jail-incurred fee payments use the county's separate jail payment page and Advent Financial Systems or Pay My Jailer.
| Service | Published method | Local detail |
|---|---|---|
| Mail address | Inmate full name, Logan County Detention Center, 110 N Riverview Rd, Room 116, Sterling, CO 80751 | Sender full name and return address required. |
| Packages | Amazon items no longer accepted | Call before sending any item beyond a normal letter. |
| Phone calls | Collect-call phones in cell blocks | Jail staff deliver messages only for verifiable emergencies. |
| Inmate money | Jail lobby kiosk or JailATM | Money orders are no longer accepted for inmate funds. |
| Jail-incurred fees | Advent Financial Systems / Pay My Jailer | Used when a statement for jail fees has been issued. |
| Booking fee | $30 | Booking debts do not have to be paid to secure release on money bond. |
The Logan County jail payment page is for fees incurred while incarcerated, not for searching jail custody.
Keeping inmate deposits, jail fees, and bond separate helps avoid a common mistake: paying a jail debt does not replace a court-set bond.
Logan County Booking and Bond
The county's booking and bonding notice gives the local custody flow. At intake, the arresting officer, deputy, or booking deputy tells the person the initial charge. That charge is confirmed at the first court hearing, usually the first working day after intake. The court sets bond and no-bond status. Jail staff do not choose the bond type and cannot recommend a bondsman. Family and friends who assist with bond should use the north side of the jail building for the in-person process.
Bond can be posted around the clock at the jail, but release may be delayed by meals, court hearings, or other high-activity jail operations. The Logan County notice says release is generally within two hours after bond is posted and must occur within six hours after the bond amount is satisfied unless extraordinary circumstances apply. The county also allows online cash bond payment by credit or debit card through its remote bond-payment process. Fees, booking fees, and other debts may be owed after release, but the bond-rights notice says they do not have to be paid to secure release on money bond.
- Booking charge
- The first charge label given at jail intake. It can change after prosecutor and court review.
- Personal recognizance bond
- A court-approved release based on a promise to appear, sometimes with a co-signer.
- No-bond hold
- A court decision that the person cannot bond out at that stage.
- Detainer
- A hold or notice from another agency that can affect release or transfer.
Logan County Jail Records
Because the county does not publish a live roster profile, the sheriff records process is the documented way to request jail-related records. The Civil Process and Records Info page lists a $15 search or retrieval prepayment, photo ID requirements through the form, and fees for copies, photos, videos, flash drives, and staff time when a request takes more than one hour. Requests may be reviewed, redacted, or denied under the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act, juvenile protections, sexual-assault victim protections, and other limits.
A records request is not the same thing as a court records request. Sheriff records can cover incident, booking, and criminal justice agency records. Logan County Combined Courts is the correct place for filed charges, docket dates, court records, and advisement or bond-hearing context. For a person who has left the jail for state prison, CDOC becomes the record holder for custody status. For federal or immigration custody, use federal tools instead of the Logan County jail channel.
Note: Public record means requestable or reviewable under law, not automatically posted online without limits.
