This is a private reference site, not a sheriff's office or court clerk. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, pull an official booking file, or answer case-specific legal questions. Contact the agency that keeps the record for official action.
Where to Look First
The main Newton County jail and records contact is the Newton County Sheriff's Office, operated by Sheriff Glenn Wheeler. The sheriff's office and jail are at 300 North Spring Street, Jasper, AR 72641. Mail can be sent to P.O. Box 312, Jasper, AR 72641. The public phone number for non-emergency calls, jail questions, dispatch, and FOIA routing is 870-446-5124. The report-a-crime line is 870-446-5113. The sheriff site footer lists administrative office hours as Monday-Friday, 8:00am-2:00pm, while the FAQ lists report and FOIA calls during 8:00am-4:30pm, Monday-Friday. Call before visiting because both hour ranges appear in official sheriff material.
Use the list below to match the request to the office or search tool most likely to hold the record.
- For someone held in the county jail, start with jail inmate records and the Newton County RPS roster.
- For booking photos shown with current or recent entries, use jail roster mugshots.
- For charges filed after an arrest, search court records after a jail arrest and the Arkansas court portal.
- For the local detention facility, use the Newton County Jail page linked in the footer.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Arkansas Department of Corrections inmate locator.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
