Woodson County Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, free anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the government office that holds the requested record or controls the custody decision.

Official Offices by Record

For a recent Woodson jail release, older booking record, booking photograph, or transfer question, contact the Woodson County Sheriff's Office and Woodson Detention Center:

Woodson County Sheriff / Detention Center
105 West Rutledge Street
Yates Center, KS 66783
Phone: 620-625-8640, published as available 24 hours
Fax: 620-625-8672
Administrative hours: Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

No local fee schedule for booking or release records was found. Ask for an estimate before chargeable work. The sheriff's online contact form is not monitored around the clock, and plain-text messages are not secure, so do not send sensitive personal details through it. The following routes help match the question to its proper source:

  • For a released person or release record, the home page gives the full official search route and focused records-request steps.
  • For supervision after release, use Probation & Parole. Woodson community corrections is within the 31st Judicial District.
  • For the latest county events, narrow the sheriff's official 48-hour feed through Jail Releases: 24 Hours.
  • For a future date or custody notice, use Projected Release or VINELink Inmate Search. Kansas VINE can also be reached at 866-574-8463.
  • For the local facility, see the Woodson Detention Center page linked in the footer.
  • For a sentenced Kansas prisoner, begin with KASPER. Sentence-computation questions go to KDOC at 785-296-3317.
  • For a federal sentence, use the Bureau of Prisons locator. Use the ICE locator only when immigration custody is specifically at issue.

Court records have a different custodian even though the Woodson County District Court uses the same street location. For disposition, sentence, bond order, dismissal, probation, or discharge entries, call the district court at 620-625-8600 extension 7. Published hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Ask the sheriff for the physical booking-release record and the court for the legal order.
