Reach the Record Holder

County custody and booking questions go to the Decatur County Sheriff’s Office, 201 NE Idaho Street, Leon, IA 50144, at 641-446-4111. The Decatur County Jail is at 206 NE 2nd Street, Leon, IA 50144, and uses the same phone number. Office hours published by the sheriff are weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; the jail is the stated after-hours contact. Ask for the records custodian or jail records desk because no separate records line is posted.

  • For a county booking record or releasable photo, use the request steps on the Decatur County arrest hub.
  • For a possible warrant, contact the sheriff and Decatur County Clerk of Court rather than relying on an unofficial result.
  • For a fresh booking, check the official roster and the Daily Arrest Report fallback sequence.
  • For a release or transfer alert, use the VINELink Inmate Check and verify urgent questions by phone.
  • For a court outcome, search Iowa Courts Online or call the Decatur County Clerk of Court at 641-219-4265.
  • For state custody, use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search; federal prison and immigration custody use separate BOP or ICE locators.
