Monroe County Recent Arrests is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, order a release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record.
Monroe County Sheriff Contact
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office is the first official contact for a current county-jail question or a request for a booking record or photograph. The county does not list a separate records-unit number, so ask the front office to identify the lawful custodian and current submission method.

Choose the Right Record Office
Each system answers a different question. Use the route that matches the person’s custody stage and the record sought.
- For a county booking sheet or photograph, start with the sheriff and the Monroe County records-request path.
- For someone believed to be newly booked, call the sheriff and use Arrested Today.
- For a wider span of reports and court activity, use Arrest Reports.
- For release or transfer alerts, follow the official VINE Arrest Check process.
- For filed charges and dispositions, search Iowa Courts Online or call the Monroe Clerk of District Court at 641-932-5212.
- For state custody or supervision, use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search.
- For federal prison or immigration detention, use the official BOP or ICE locator. Neither is a Monroe County jail roster.
