No Worth County Online Roster
No official Worth County, Missouri online jail roster, current-inmate search form, recent-bookings list, or sheriff-hosted custody database was located in official sources. That finding matters because a search for Worth County inmate records can lead to pages for Worth County, Georgia, pages for Worth County, Iowa, or third-party jail directories that do not reflect the Missouri sheriff's office in Grant City. The usable local source is the Worth County Sheriff's Office and Worth County Jail, which official Missouri directories place at the courthouse address in Grant City.
The practical Worth County jail records path is therefore a fallback chain. Call or visit the sheriff for current custody. Use a Missouri Sunshine Law request for a booking, arrest, release, or incident record that is not available informally. Use Missouri Case.net after charges are filed. Use the Missouri Department of Corrections locator only for active state offenders, probationers, and parolees. Use VINELink for notification searches where available. Use the BOP and ICE locators only when federal or immigration custody may be involved.
Local search rule: Worth County has no official Missouri online jail roster located, so do not treat third-party inmate lists as the county's custody record.
Use Worth County Jail Records
The closest equivalent to a Worth County jail roster search is a direct custody inquiry with the sheriff's office. Have the person's full legal name ready. Add a date of birth, arrest date, arresting agency, warrant number, or court case number if known. Ask whether the person is in the Worth County Jail, has been released, is awaiting transfer, or is held for another agency. If the jail cannot confirm a public record over the phone, ask how to submit a written request to the records custodian.
- Call the Worth County Sheriff's Office and jail at 660-564-2222 for a current custody check.
- Ask whether the person is held at Worth County Jail, released, transferred, or held on an outside warrant or detainer.
- Visit the sheriff/courthouse office during public office hours if an in-person records request is needed.
- Search Missouri Case.net for filed charges, bond orders, warrants, hearings, and dispositions.
- Search MODOC Offender Web Search if the person may be in state prison, probation, or parole.
- Use VINELink, BOP Inmate Locator, or ICE ODLS only when those custody systems fit the case.
Do not assume a missing online result means the person was never arrested. Worth County is a small rural county, and official sources did not show the kind of public jail dashboard used in some larger counties. A person may also leave the local jail channel quickly through release, bond, court order, transfer to another county, MODOC commitment, U.S. Marshals custody, or ICE custody.
Worth County Roster Fields
Because no official Worth County online jail roster was located, no local search fields can be claimed for the county jail. The roster-field inventory is a gap table, not a recycled roster template. It shows that the county did not publish a public fielded search form in the official Missouri sources reviewed.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Not available | Not available | Not available | No official Worth County, Missouri roster or jail search form was located. |
The state and federal fallback tools do have fields. MODOC begins with a captcha and then searches active offenders by first and last name, including aliases. BOP has a name search using first, middle, and last name plus optional race, sex, and age fields. ICE ODLS uses either an A-number with country of birth or a biographical search with name, country of birth, and date of birth.
Worth County Inmate Profile Fields
No official public Worth County inmate profile could be inspected, so the page should not promise booking numbers, mugshots, housing units, bond amounts, release dates, or charge fields on a local online profile. Those details may exist in jail records, court records, or agency files, but the public path is a direct request. When asking the sheriff for Worth County inmate records, be precise about the fields needed and the date range.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name | Request by full legal name; no official public profile format was located. |
| Booking date/time | Not published online in official sources; ask the sheriff for the booking record. |
| Booking number | No public Worth County booking-number format was located. |
| Charges | Booking allegations may be in the jail record; formal filed charges are searched in Case.net. |
| Bond | Ask the jail for release status and check Case.net for court bond entries. |
| Mugshot | No official Worth County mugshot gallery was located; request any booking photo through the records process. |
| Housing location | Not published online in official Worth County sources. |
| Release status | Ask the jail; later custody may move to MODOC, BOP, ICE, or another agency. |
A booking charge is not the same thing as a court conviction. Booking is the jail intake event. A charge is an allegation. A prosecutor can file, amend, or decline charges after the arrest. A disposition is the court outcome. For charge history after jail intake, the stronger source is Case.net, not a custody phone call.
Worth County Jail Contact
The official local facts point to a courthouse-based sheriff and jail operation. The Missouri law-enforcement directory lists Worth County Sheriff's Office with Scott Sherer as chief executive, PO Box 36, 11 West 4th Street, Grant City, phone 660-564-2222, and fax 660-564-2225. The Missouri Association of Counties also lists the sheriff's mailing address and phone, and it lists courthouse office hours as weekday business hours with legal-holiday closures. Jail custody operations may not match public-counter hours, so call before travel.

Missouri State Parks' courthouse history page identifies the Worth County Courthouse as the building that houses the Sheriff's Office and County Jail. That is why the same Grant City courthouse address appears for the sheriff, jail, circuit court, and other county offices. For travel, visitor entry, ID rules, parking, or whether a person can be seen or contacted, the sheriff should be called before going to the courthouse.
Request Worth County Booking Records
Missouri Sunshine Law is the public-records route for Worth County jail records that are not posted online. The request should go to the custodian of the agency that holds the record. For booking records, arrest reports, incident reports, release status, and a booking photo if one exists, that is ordinarily the Worth County Sheriff's Office. The request should name the person, give the date or date range, identify the record type, and state the preferred format.
RSMo 610.023 requires a public governmental body to act on a records request as soon as possible and no later than the end of the third business day after receipt, unless more time is explained in writing. RSMo 610.026 allows copying and staff-time charges within statutory limits. RSMo 610.100 treats incident and arrest reports as open records, subject to closure and redaction rules.
Request wording: Ask for the booking record, arrest report, incident report, release or transfer status, and any booking photo for a named person and arrest date.
Worth County Custody Channels
Worth County jail custody, Missouri state custody, federal custody, and immigration custody are different systems. A local arrest may start at the Worth County Jail, but a later sentence, warrant, detainer, or transfer can move the lookup to another database. The local sheriff can answer whether someone is presently held in the county jail, but MODOC, BOP, and ICE each control their own records.
| Custody Type | Where to Look | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Worth County jail | Call or visit the sheriff at 660-564-2222 | Current local custody, release, transfer, booking, and arrest-record questions. |
| Worth County court case | Missouri Case.net | Filed charges, bond orders, warrants, docket dates, pleas, judgments, and dispositions. |
| Missouri state offender | MODOC Offender Web Search | Active state prison, probation, and parole records, with exclusions noted by MODOC. |
| Victim notification | VINELink / Missouri victim-notification resources | Custody-status notices where the person and agency are available in the notification system. |
| Federal prisoner | BOP Inmate Locator | Federal inmates from 1982 to present after BOP commitment. |
| Immigration detainee | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | Adults in ICE custody, searched by A-number or biographical data. |
No Missouri DOC prison, BOP institution, ICE detention facility, city jail, or regional jail was located inside Worth County. A federal pretrial defendant from Worth County would generally fall under the U.S. Marshals Western District of Missouri before BOP commitment. An immigration case belongs in ICE ODLS only if the person is in ICE custody or meets the ODLS criteria.
Worth County Jail Facility
The facility map for Worth County contains one official local detention facility: Worth County Jail, operated by the Worth County Sheriff's Office. It holds local arrestees, pretrial detainees, persons serving short local sentences when accepted by the sheriff, and people held on warrants or pending transfer. Official sources did not publish a rated capacity, current jail population, average daily population, booking total, pod layout, or jail administrator name.
| Facility | Address | Phone | Published Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Worth County Jail | 11 West 4th Street, Grant City, MO 64456 | 660-564-2222 | Not published in official sources |
This is not a state prison or a federal detention center. If a person receives a Missouri prison sentence, custody tracking moves from Worth County jail records to MODOC. If a person is held for a federal case or immigration matter, use the federal or ICE channels rather than assuming the Worth County jail has a public online profile.
Worth County Booking Process
No Worth County-specific booking procedure was published in official online sources. A typical local arrest may involve a sheriff's deputy, city officer, Missouri State Highway Patrol trooper, or outside warrant agency. The person may be taken to the courthouse-based Worth County Jail in Grant City, or, if another agency or facility is involved, the sheriff should be able to explain the custody path that can be released as public information.
Jail intake commonly includes identity confirmation, warrant checks, search, property inventory, booking photo if the jail takes one, fingerprints, medical or mental-health screening, and classification. Classification means the jail's internal safety and housing review. A detainer is a hold from another agency. A no-bond hold means ordinary bond posting will not release the person until the hold is cleared or the court changes the order.
Worth County Visitation Records
Worth County-specific visitation, mail, phone, video, commissary, money-deposit, and attorney-visit rules were not located in official sources. Public Worth County records therefore do not support naming a vendor, schedule, dress code, deposit limit, or remote video system. Call the sheriff before traveling, mailing property, sending money, or telling a family member to create a phone or video account.
| Facility / Custody | Schedule | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Worth County Jail | Not published | Not published | Call 660-564-2222 before travel or mail. |
| Missouri DOC prisons | Facility-specific | In-person and video where approved | Use DOC facility pages and visiting rules after state transfer. |
| BOP / ICE | Facility-specific | Facility rules | Use the facility where the person is actually held. |
For people in state prison, the rules change. Missouri DOC publishes separate resources for visiting, Securus video visits, JPay or money-order deposits, mail restrictions, electronic messaging, and phone services. Those are state-prison rules, not confirmed Worth County Jail rules.
Missing Worth County Records
A person may not appear in an online search for several valid reasons. Worth County has no official public roster located. The person may have bonded out before anyone searched. The booking may involve another county, a state warrant, a federal hold, or an ICE matter. The name may be misspelled, abbreviated, changed, or listed with an alias. The court case may not yet be filed, or an arrest report may be closed due to a statutory rule.
If the search is time-sensitive, start with the sheriff's office, then verify court charges through Case.net. A court docket can show the filed charge, but it does not prove the person is in jail that day. MODOC can show active state custody or supervision, but it does not show discharged offenders and may exclude some records for safety, security, or confidentiality.
Note: No official Worth County sheriff mobile app was located, so do not rely on an app-only roster or warrant tool.
