Lincoln County Jail Overview
Lincoln County Jail is operated by the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office in Davenport. The Sheriff's Office also handles law enforcement, dispatch, warrants, civil process, and court-order service, which means a local custody record may connect to the same agency through arrest, booking, jail operations, warrant processing, and records response. The official jail page identifies Scott Blomgren as Jail Superintendent, and the sheriff source identifies Gabe Gants as sheriff.
The facility holds people arrested or sentenced locally in Lincoln County. The official roster is for current inmates in the Lincoln County Jail. No Washington DOC prison, BOP prison, or ICE detention facility was found inside Lincoln County, so this is the only facility page in the local facility list. Sentenced felony prisoners may later move to Washington DOC custody, where the statewide DOC locator becomes the correct search path.
The official Lincoln County Jail page is the source for the roster, visitation, warrants, jail address, jail phone, and superintendent information.
The page groups the practical jail tasks in one place, which is why roster lookup, visit planning, mail, and money rules should all start there.
Lincoln County Jail Capacity
WASPC JBRS/SAVIN jail statistics reported 24 facility beds for Lincoln County Sheriff's Office in both CY2024 and CY2025. The same datasets reported average daily population of 12.58 in 2024 and 13.25 in 2025. On a full-year average basis, the jail was below its reported bed count in both years. Those figures are annual statistical measures, not a live head count for any given day.
| Year | ADP | Admissions | Average Stay | Beds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 12.58 | 389 | 15 days | 24 |
| 2025 | 13.25 | 304 | 14.75 days | 24 |
Lincoln County Jail Roster Lookup
The correct lookup path for this facility is the county jail roster linked from the jail page. It covers current Lincoln County Jail custody, including local arrestees and short-sentence inmates. The public search snippet documented roster row fields such as JailId, Photo, Name, Charges, Current Disposition, and Total Bail. Because the roster app may require modern JavaScript, a browser that blocks scripts can fail even when the roster is available.
- Open the county Jail page and choose Inmate Roster.
- Search by last name first, then add first name if the roster returns too many results.
- Check that the row is for Lincoln County Jail and current custody.
- Review charges, current disposition, and total bail, then verify by phone if release, bond, or a hold is urgent.
For a deeper roster walkthrough, the Lincoln County inmate records page explains the search fields and fallback chain in more detail.
Lincoln County Jail Contact
Use the jail contact line for custody checks, roster outages, visit-day confirmation, and questions that the public roster does not answer. The Sheriff's Office public office hours are listed as Monday through Friday, 8 am to 4 pm. Jail-specific arrival, release, bond, or record questions should be confirmed by phone before visiting the building.

Who Lincoln County Jail Holds
Lincoln County Jail is a local county jail. It is used for people arrested in Lincoln County, people held on local court orders, and people serving short local sentences. Sheriff's Office materials also show the office provides police service to contract towns, including Almira, Creston, Davenport, Harrington, Sprague, and Wilbur according to the official About Us page. A person arrested in one of those small communities may still be booked into the county jail in Davenport.
Interlocal records also show jail and booking service arrangements with other agencies. That does not make the jail a state prison, federal prison, or immigration detention center. A DOC sentence, BOP sentence, or ICE detention matter should be checked through the separate state or federal locator once the person is no longer in local jail custody.
Lincoln County Jail Visitation
The Lincoln County visitation information gives the rules families need before traveling to Davenport. Visits are tied to specific days, and the jail instructs users to call and verify the inmate's visitation day. Photo ID is required. People under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Special visits are not automatic and require approval from the Jail Superintendent or 911 Coordinator.
| Rule | Lincoln County Jail Detail |
|---|---|
| Regular days | Wednesdays, Saturdays, and federal holidays. |
| Visit length | Each inmate is allowed 30 minutes per day. |
| Visitors | No more than two visitors at a time, excluding children under 12. |
| ID | Photo identification is required. |
| Minors | Visitors under 18 must be with a parent or legal guardian. |
| Items | Visitors may not drop off correspondence, pictures, or other items unless authorized. |
The visitation page screenshot confirms the day-based schedule, ID rule, visitor limit, and approval rule for special visits.
Because no separate public video visitation vendor was located for the county jail, do not apply DOC prison video-visit rules to this facility.
Lincoln County Jail Mail Money
Mail must use the inmate's full name and the jail mailing address: Lincoln County Jail, PO Box 367, Davenport, WA 99122. The mailing information page states that books, magazines, and papers must be sent directly from publishers. Visitors cannot drop off correspondence, pictures, or items unless the Jail Superintendent authorizes it.
| Channel | Rule |
|---|---|
| Use inmate full name, Lincoln County Jail, PO Box 367, Davenport, WA 99122. | |
| Publications | Books, magazines, and papers must come directly from publishers. |
| Mail money | Certified checks or money orders are accepted by mail and placed on the inmate account. |
| In-person money | Visitation rules say cash or cashier's checks only, with no personal checks or money orders. |
| Online deposits | The jail and visitation pages link Access Corrections for money and phone account services. |
The mailing screenshot is the source for the PO Box format and publisher-only publication rule.
The channel distinction matters because mail accepts certified checks or money orders, while the in-person money rule uses cash or cashier's checks.
Lincoln County Booking Court Transfer
Lincoln County has not published a detailed booking manual, so the local process should be read from official jail facts, court sources, and Washington jail law. A person may be arrested by the Sheriff's Office, Washington State Patrol, a contract-town police service, or another agency, then booked into the Lincoln County Jail. RCW 70.48.100 requires a jail register to include each confined person's name, hour and date of confinement, cause of confinement, and discharge details.
After booking, the court path controls release and formal charges. Misdemeanor matters generally proceed in District Court, and felony matters proceed in Superior Court. Lincoln County Superior Court publishes a criminal docket time of Tuesdays at 10:30 am. Roster charges are booking or arrest data. Prosecutor and court filings may amend, reduce, dismiss, or replace those charges.
Bond and release details should be checked against the court order and jail status. The roster may show Total Bail or Current Disposition, but a warrant, DOC hold, federal matter, ICE detainer, or other agency hold can keep a person in custody even when a local bail amount appears. The jail phone is the practical check before posting money or arranging a ride.
Lincoln County Jail Records Directions
For jail or sheriff records that are not on the roster, use Lincoln County's public records process. The Public Records page identifies the county public records officer and links the online request form. Court non-administrative documents are different. The county states that Chapter 42.56 RCW does not apply to those court documents, so filed case copies should be requested from the court or clerk.
No official Lincoln County Jail source located for this build published a program catalog, medical request process, grievance procedure, work-release list, accreditation page, or religious-services schedule. That absence is important. DOC prison programs and Airway Heights Corrections Center services should not be copied into a Lincoln County Jail profile because those are state prison programs, not local jail services.
Visitors should route to 404 Sinclair Street in Davenport for the jail and Sheriff's Office. Court, prosecutor, and public records offices commonly use the Logan Street government address, so confirm the destination before leaving. Official visitor parking, public transit, and ADA entrance details were not located in the jail sources. Anyone who needs accommodations or visitor parking guidance should call 509-725-3501 before arriving. Rural visitors should plan the trip around the verified visit day.
Note: Confirm custody, visit eligibility, and arrival details with Lincoln County Jail before traveling to Davenport.
