The Morrison County, Minnesota jail roster is a public resource that allows anyone to check who is currently in custody at the county jail. Through MorrisonCourt.us, you can find publicly available information about current and recent inmates. Additionally, data is available on the official Morrison County Sheriff's website, by phone, or in person at the jail. The roster provides the person's name, charges, bail amount, and booking date. It is maintained by the Morrison County Sheriff's Office and regularly updated through the LETG Jail system hosted at incustody.morrisoncountymn.gov.
Search Current Inmates in Morrison Jail
There are several ways to check if a specific person is in custody at the Morrison County Jail.

Note: Visitor inquiry hours may differ from inmate visitation hours. Confirm by phone.
If the person has been transferred to a state facility after sentencing, continue the search through the Minnesota Department of Corrections website.
Find Morrison Jail Booking Records Online
A booking record is created at the moment a person is officially taken into custody. It is the first document that records the detention.
During the booking process, the following data is recorded:
- Unique booking number
- Date and time of booking
- Charges (including legal articles, e.g., 152.022.1(1) — second-degree drugs)
- Arresting agency
- Photo of the detainee
- Bail amount or type of hold (e.g., Warrant Hold)
Current booking records are available directly in the online jail roster. Only those in custody at the time of viewing are displayed.
To obtain records of past bookings — after a person is released — you need to submit a document request to the Morrison County Sheriff's Office. Such requests are usually processed in accordance with the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, Minn. Stat. Chapter 13.
Court materials related to the case can be found through Minnesota Court Records Online (MCRO) — a system that provides access to public records of state district courts. Select Morrison from the list of counties to narrow your search.
Search the Morrison Jail Roster by Last Name or Booking Number
The Morrison County inmate roster supports two main identification methods — by last name and by booking number.
Search by Last Name
Open the roster page and press Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F). Enter the last name in Latin letters — the browser system will highlight all matches. A few tips:
- Use the exact spelling of the last name. Even one extra letter can prevent finding the record.
- If the last name is complex or you are unsure of the spelling, try entering only the first few letters.
- You can additionally verify the first name to distinguish people with the same last name.
Search by Booking Number
If you know the five-digit booking number (e.g., 19111), enter it in the browser's search field. This method is more precise and yields a single result.
If the Search Yields No Results
- Check the spelling of the name — try different spelling variations.
- The person may have already been released. The roster only shows those currently in custody.
- Call the jail at (320) 632-0151 to confirm the status.
- If the case has already been transferred to court, search through the Morrison County Court page or the MCRO system.
Jail Roster Updates and Search Limitations in Morrison
The Morrison County Jail online roster is automatically updated through the LETG system. Data usually appears within a few hours of booking, although the exact interval depends on staff workload.
It is important to remember the limitations:
- Delay between arrest and appearance in the roster. After arrest, there is a period for processing — photographing, fingerprinting, data entry. During this time, the name may not yet appear in the roster.
- Disappearance of records after release. Once a person is released (on bail, by court decision, or after serving a term), their record is removed from the list. The roster is a snapshot of the current state, not an archive.
- Data entry errors. Sometimes a last name may be recorded incorrectly or in a non-standard format. If you are sure the person is in custody but do not see them in the roster, contact by phone.
- Confidential cases. Certain categories of detainees — including minors — are not displayed in the public roster in accordance with state law.
To check a person's criminal history beyond current detention, use the MCRO system search or contact the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) for an official criminal background check.
