Official Gentry County Contacts
The sheriff is the first route for a local booking, release, transfer, or holding-facility question. The county publishes no records-office hours or flat release-record fee, so confirm both before visiting or requesting copies.

Choose the right record path
The home page covers a released-person search and local release request. Use the sheriff for the physical custody event, Case.net or the Circuit Clerk for the legal order, MODOC for state custody or supervision, MOVANS for a notice, BOP for federal prison status, and ICE only for current immigration detention. The site cannot submit those requests or resolve agency records on a visitor's behalf.
Keep Proof of Requests
A 2026 State Auditor report found that Gentry County lacked the required written public-access policy and request log. That finding does not predict the result of a particular request. It does make careful tracking useful. Keep the dated request, delivery proof, estimates, replies, and copies produced. Ask for the named records custodian and track the Section 610.023 third-business-day response milestone.
