This is a private reference site, not an Ellsworth County government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, pull an official booking record, or answer for a court clerk. Use the official contacts below for those actions.
Official Offices to Contact
For a recent arrest or current jail custody question, start with the sheriff's office and jail. For charges filed after arrest, court dates, and case records, use the district court. Prosecutor questions tied to a filed Ellsworth County criminal case route through the county attorney.

Use the guide below to match the question to the correct record path.
- For someone who may be held in the county jail, see jail inmate records and then call 785-472-4416 when the online path is not enough.
- For booking photos or photo-release questions, read the jail roster mugshots page before making a Kansas Open Records Act request.
- For charges, hearings, case numbers, and filings after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the district court contact above.
- For facility-specific details, use the Ellsworth County Jail and Ellsworth Correctional Facility pages listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced Kansas prisoner, use the Kansas Department of Corrections KASPER locator rather than the county jail.
- For a federal or immigration detainee, check the federal Bureau of Prisons locator, U.S. Marshals contacts, or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
