Official Records Contacts

Garfield County Busted Mugshots is a private reference service, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible public office directly for those matters.


Start With the Record Holder

Garfield County's local arrest and jail record path is split between the Sheriff in Burwell and the operational detention facility in Ord. The Sheriff is the county records starting point. Valley County Jail is the current contact for immediate local custody confirmation and its dated Inmates and Call Logs posts. A court file is the path for a disposition after booking.

The Sheriff publishes no separate records-unit line. Ask the main office for the current custodian for the particular booking card, photo, report, or release entry. The fee schedule has no separate booking-photo amount, so request a current estimate.

  • For a recent local booking or release, use the Valley Jail contact and the home-page custody path.
  • For a Garfield County booking record or photo request, contact the Sheriff and identify the person and date range.
  • For a court status or case result, contact Garfield County Court or the District Court Clerk after checking the Nebraska Judicial Branch service.
  • For a sentenced state-prisoner record, use the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services locator.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator for that separate custody system.
