This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that holds the record.


Official Records Contacts

For a Mitchell County jail booking, current custody question, or request for a releasable booking record and photo, begin with the sheriff's general line. The office publishes one number and does not identify a separate records extension.

Mitchell County Sheriff's Office

Sheriff Greg Beaver
211 S. 6th St.
Osage, IA 50461-1228

Phone: 641-732-4740
Published hours: 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. The sheriff page does not state days.

The right office depends on the record or status being sought.

  • Use the home page for the full county booking-photo, custody, roster, arrest-log, and records-request path.
  • Call the sheriff for present Mitchell County jail custody or a county booking record.
  • Ask Osage, St. Ansgar, or Riceville police for that department's arrest or incident report. A Riceville case may require Mitchell or Howard County routing.
  • Use Iowa Courts Online or the Mitchell County clerk for filed charges, orders, and the final disposition.
  • Use IowaVINE for supported custody notifications, not as a photo archive.
  • Use the Iowa Department of Corrections search for state custody or supervision, and BOP or ICE only for the matching federal custody type.
