Benton County Official Contacts

Benton County Sheriff’s Office and Detention Facility

1620 E. Main St.
Warsaw, MO 65355

Detention Facility: 660-438-6135
24-hour non-emergency line: 660-438-5252
Administrative hours: Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The official BCSO contact page includes a form, but email is not monitored around the clock. Call 911 for an emergency.

Choose the office or locator that matches the person’s custody stage and the record you need:

  • For a county booking record or releasable photo, start with the Benton County records guide, then ask the BCSO or detention-facility records custodian. No dedicated form, local photo fee, or guaranteed turnaround was found.
  • For warrant status, call BCSO at 660-438-5252. For court filings or disposition, contact the Benton County Circuit Clerk at 660-438-7712 or use Missouri Case.net.
  • For someone recently arrested, check the official BCSO current roster first. Call the facility at 660-438-6135 if processing lag or a transfer may explain an absent entry.
  • For release or transfer alerts, use the official Missouri MOVANS process. A roster entry is not a promise about a future release date.
  • For visitation, mail, inmate accounts, or facility rules, contact the Benton County Detention Facility directly.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Search or DOC Constituent Services.
  • For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator. For immigration custody, use the official ICE Online Detainee Locator. Neither system covers an ordinary Benton County jail booking.
