Lookup Juab County Jail Inmates

Juab County Jail Overview

Juab County Jail is the primary detention facility serving Juab County. It is operated by the Juab County Sheriff's Office and is listed in official research as the only detention facility physically located in the county. No separate Juab work-release center, city jail, regional jail, state prison, BOP prison, or ICE detention facility was found in the official sources reviewed.

The jail is a county facility, but it also has a Utah Department of Corrections role. The UDC Jail Programs Booklet reports Juab County Jail as part of the Inmate Placement Program, with selected state inmates housed locally for trustee-type internal work such as janitor, food service, laundry, and related jail tasks. That means Juab County Jail records can involve both local jail custody and state corrections custody, and the right lookup path depends on the person's legal status.

The official Juab County Jail page is the source for the jail phone, Visitel video visitation, mail-processing address, attorney and clergy access, and phone-call rules.

The jail screenshot supports the facility-specific service rules. It also shows why the lookup copy relies on phone and records channels: the page does not publish a public roster.

Search Juab County Jail Inmates

No official online Juab County Jail roster was located. The jail phone is the immediate current-custody channel. The sheriff Records Division is the fallback when a written booking record, photograph, report, or recording is needed. If the person is a sentenced state inmate, UDC Offender Search may be the better first search. If the person has formal court charges, Xchange or the courthouse route answers the court-record question.

1. Call Juab County Jail at (435) 623-1344 Option 2 for current custody and local jail questions.
2. Use sheriff Records at (435) 623-1344 Option 3 if a booking record, report, photograph, or recording is needed.
3. Use Utah VINELink for custody status and notifications where available.
4. Search UDC Offender Search for people under Utah state corrections custody or supervision.
5. Use Utah Courts Xchange for filed criminal cases after charges are entered.

UDC states that its locator does not list people awaiting trial or not yet sentenced in county jails. That is the key distinction for Juab County Jail. A recent local arrest belongs in the jail-phone, VINE, Records, and court workflow. A sentenced state prisoner belongs in the UDC workflow, even if that person is physically held at Juab under the placement program.

Juab County Jail Address

The sheriff site lists the sheriff office address as 425 West Sheeplane DR, PO Box 133, Nephi, UT 84648. Jail visitor-application material uses Juab County Jail, 425 W Sheep Ln Dr., Nephi, UT 84648. For visitor directions and mapping, the Sheep Lane version is the best address format because it appears in the jail visitor-application instructions.

Juab County Jail Population

The best current capacity-related source located is the UDC Jail Programs Booklet 2025. It reports Juab County Jail with 58 total jail beds and 15 regular state-inmate beds available for Corrections. It also says Juab regularly houses up to 15 state inmates, many with parole dates or waiting for treatment placement. A separate official county-rated capacity, current daily count, annual booking figure, average length of stay, and demographic table were not located.

State legislative material from 2025 supported a major contract expansion with 205 additional state-inmate beds beyond the current 15, tied to $60 million in facility debt and a 30-year repayment period. That material shows future or planned state-contract direction. It should not be treated as proof that 205 additional people were already housed at the jail.

Juab County Jail Visitation

All ordinary visits are handled through Visitel. The jail page says visiting staff no longer schedule visits, so visitors should create an account at Visitel or use the jail lobby kiosk. A state-issued driver's license or ID is required for registration, and visits must be scheduled 24 hours in advance. Visitors are subject to warrant checks, and visits are monitored.

Restricted items for onsite jail visiting include cell phones, cameras, recorders, weapons, knives, lighters, tobacco, purses, food, and drink. Visitors booked into Juab County Jail within the last two years are not allowed to visit, with possible immediate-family exceptions. Anyone on probation or parole may not visit. Children must be controlled and may not be left unattended in the lobby or on jail grounds.

Juab County Jail Mail

Mail rules are one of the most specific official details published for Juab County Jail. Inmate letters must go to the Highland Heights, Kentucky processing address, not the physical jail in Nephi. The jail page says letters sent to the Nephi jail address will be returned to sender and that no other items are accepted. No official postcard-only rule, photo limit, book rule, legal-mail rule, or scanned-mail vendor name was located.

Do not apply state-prison Access Corrections fees to Juab County Jail unless Juab publishes that vendor for the jail. UDC statewide money rules apply to state-prison accounts, not automatically to a county jail deposit process.

Juab County Jail Records

When no roster is available, the sheriff Records Division becomes the main document channel. Records handles sheriff reports, accident reports, photographs, recordings, and other sheriff records. The GRAMA request form asks the requester to describe records with reasonable specificity and cites a response period of up to 10 business days for the requested record, a denial, or a notice of extended time.

Juab County Jail Context

Juab County is rural and spread out, so visitation and records work often involve travel from communities beyond Nephi, including Mona, Eureka, Levan, Callao, Trout Creek, Fish Springs, Rocky Ridge, Tintic, Mammoth, and Silver City. Readers from western Juab communities should confirm visit status before driving because the official jail page does not publish same-day walk-in visiting, visitor parking details, public transit routes, or an ADA visitor-entry note.

The old Juab County Jail at 45 W. Center in Nephi is a separate historic building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It should not be confused with the current operating jail at 425 W Sheep Ln / Sheeplane Drive. Current custody, visits, mail, and records route through the modern sheriff/jail complex.
