Wayne County Recent Arrests is not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible agency directly.
Find the Right Record Source
Use the source that controls the information you need:
- For a recent booking, photograph, jail record, or current Wayne County custody question, contact the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office.
- For a public case filing, docket event, or disposition, use Iowa Courts Online or the Wayne County Clerk of Court.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search.
- For a federal prisoner, use the Bureau of Prisons locator; immigration detention uses the ICE locator.
- For release or transfer alerts, use Iowa VINE after confirming the correct person.
- For help with site content, use the site contact route rather than asking an agency to troubleshoot this private website.
Wayne County Sheriff Contact
The sheriff is the operational contact for the Wayne County Jail and its public inmate system. No separate records-unit phone, online booking-record form, fixed fee schedule, or promised turnaround was found. Ask staff to confirm the custodian, available format, and estimated cost for a specific Iowa Chapter 22 request.
Wayne County Sheriff’s Office
207 N Lafayette Street
Corydon, IA 50060
641-872-1566
Weekday administrative hours: 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Emergency: 911
Administrative hours are not a statement that jail staff or emergency services are unavailable outside that window. For a request, supply the person’s name, approximate date, and exact record sought. Do not send sensitive or urgent material until the current contact method has been confirmed on the official sheriff website.
Wayne County Court Contact
The clerk is the local route for docket-access questions and case-status clarification. It does not replace the sheriff’s current roster and cannot confirm present jail custody.
Wayne County Clerk of Court
100 North Lafayette Street
Corydon, IA 50060
641-632-2040
Fax: 641-630-0778
countyclerk.wayne@iowacourts.gov
Hours: 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; closed noon to 1 p.m.
Search Iowa Courts Online before calling when possible. A booking charge is an allegation; the later disposition is the court’s result.
Message the Website
Use the site’s contact form or published website address for corrections to editorial text, technical problems, accessibility concerns, or privacy requests. Include the page URL and a concise description. Do not submit confidential case strategy, identity documents, payment data, or an emergency report.
This private site cannot alter the sheriff’s roster, remove a government record, or change a court docket. Corrections to an official source must be sent to its custodian first.
