Lookup Dunn County Jail Inmates

Dunn County Jail Overview

Dunn County Jail is operated by the Dunn County Sheriff's Office at the Dunn County Judicial Center in Menomonie. Official county and sheriff pages place the jail at 615 Stokke Parkway, Menomonie, WI 54751. The jail is the only detention facility generated from the Dunn County facility map, and no Wisconsin DOC adult prison, BOP institution, or ICE detention facility was located inside the county from the official research sources.

The sheriff's jail page says the facility is designed to house sentenced and non-sentenced male and female inmates. The roster examples include felony arrests, misdemeanor arrests, hold for sobriety, failure-to-appear warrants, probation or parole holds, serving sentence/secure, serving sentence/Huber, convicted status, State DOC holds, and other agency holds. The county also states that the jail operates under Wisconsin statutes, Wisconsin Department of Corrections standards, and the U.S. Constitution.

The official Dunn County Jail page provides the county's jail overview, contact details, communication links, visitation information, and roster access.

That county jail page is the main local starting point before using the roster PDF, NCIC visitation tools, or jail contact numbers.

Dunn County Jail Capacity and Population

The official jail pages reviewed for this build did not publish a rated bed capacity, construction year, named housing-unit list, or renovation history. That gap should not be filled with unsourced numbers. The strongest population source is the current inmate roster, which is a custody snapshot rather than an annual jail population report. The roster PDF inspected in the research was printed May 1, 2026 and ran 26 pages, but the build should describe that as a roster document, not as a verified capacity or average daily population count.

Dunn County's Criminal Justice Collaboration Council materials explain how jail data are tracked. The CJCC companion document says jail data are compiled from jail bookings, average daily population and Huber/Electronic Monitoring percentages are seven-day averages within the month, and total bookings, sex, race, and recidivism data are exact. The dashboard includes Lock Up, Huber, EM, demographics, bookings, sex, race, and recidivism, but the research did not extract a current numeric ADP table suitable for quoting here.

How to Look Up an Inmate at Dunn County Jail

Dunn County does not publish a county website database with search boxes and profile pages in the research reviewed. It publishes a current inmate roster PDF through the county site. The jail page says the roster is updated daily between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m.; new incarcerations and releases after that morning update are not reflected on the report. For same-day bookings, releases, or urgent custody confirmation, call Dunn County Jail at (715) 232-2220.

The Dunn County Current Inmate Listing page links to the current roster PDF.

The listing is a PDF workflow, so browser or PDF search controls supply the name search rather than an official county form.

1. Open the current inmate listing page and select the roster PDF.
2. Use browser or PDF find to search the last name, then compare the first name and date of birth.
3. Read booking date, current hold reasons, holding type, release date, and intake status.
4. Call the jail for bookings or releases after the morning update window, or when a hold or bond question is unclear.

If the person is not on the PDF, check whether they may have been released, moved to Wisconsin DOC custody after sentencing, held in another county, held federally, or detained by ICE. Sentenced state prisoners use the Wisconsin DOC Offender Locator. Federal custody uses the BOP locator, and immigration custody uses ICE ODLS or VINELink where applicable. The Dunn County Sheriff app also advertises an online jail roster and links for jail visitation and canteen accounts, but the research did not confirm a separate app-only roster different from the county PDF.

Dunn County Jail Address and Contact

The jail, sheriff, and court offices are tied to the Dunn County Judicial Center campus. Use the jail number for current custody and jail operations, and use the Sheriff's Business Office & Records for records routing when the question is not a live custody issue. The county telephone directory lists the sheriff address as Dunn County Judicial Center, 615 Stokke Parkway, Menomonie, WI 54751-7203.

Visiting Someone at Dunn County Jail

Dunn County Jail visitation is video-based through NCIC. Public visits require registration, information or document submission where required, and approval before scheduling. The jail's public visiting hours are 5:00 a.m. to 10:15 p.m., omitting meal times. Visits cannot be scheduled from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. or from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. On-site public visits are limited to three per week. Off-site visits have no stated restriction after approval and can be scheduled for up to 30 minutes.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Dunn County Jail

NCIC provides calls, video visits, messages, and picture or video messages for Dunn County Jail. The prepaid phone page says inmates receive telephone access after booking is complete, calls can be made from housing-area phones or handheld tablets, and three-way calls are prohibited. Incoming calls are not received except voicemail messages to approved inmates. NCIC account setup is available at account.ncic.com or by calling 1-800-943-2189.

The Dunn County prepaid communication page lists NCIC rates for phone calls, video visits, and messages.

Those rates help separate telephone, video, and message costs before money is added to an account.

Money routes include the Stellar Teller kiosk in the jail lobby, JailATM.com, and money orders mailed to the inmate at 615 Stokke Pkwy., Suite D100, Menomonie, WI 54751. The county funds page says the lobby kiosk charges a $2.00 transaction fee and a 10% credit-card surcharge, and funds can be applied to bond if the depositor selects bond so the payment bypasses debt collection. Jailfunds.com handles emails and images, with fees possible.

The Dunn County inmate funds and email page explains kiosk, JailATM, money-order, and jailfunds.com options.

Use the county's own funds page when deciding whether a payment is for commissary, communication, or bond.

The Huber packet says incoming and outgoing mail must go through USPS and is inspected for contraband. Outgoing mail goes to an on-duty jailer, and the inmate name must be printed in the return address. Do not bring correspondence in or out of the facility without permission.

Booking, Intake, and Holds

Dunn County did not publish a full booking narrative, but the roster and Huber packet provide local details. After arrest, a person is transported to the jail at the Judicial Center. Jail staff identify the person, receive arrest or commitment paperwork, search for contraband, record property, check warrants and holds, complete booking information, and route the person into intake or housing. The roster has an "Is Currently Intake" column, so intake status should be treated as part of the current custody record.

Hold reasons can change quickly. A misdemeanor or felony arrest may become a court case in WCCA. A failure-to-appear warrant may require a court appearance. A probation or parole hold may require DOC action. An additional hold for another county, State DOC, federal authority, or another agency can block release even when a Dunn County bond appears payable. The March 2026 Warrant Service Officer agreement reported by WEAU should be read narrowly: it concerned serving federal detainers on people already in Dunn County Jail on local criminal charges, not operating an ICE detention facility or arresting people solely on suspected immigration status.

Huber Work Release at Dunn County Jail

Dunn County's Huber program is unusually detailed. Huber and work release are privileges that must meet jail policy even when the court grants eligibility. The Huber packet requires $200 at arrival, employment verification on company letterhead, liability or workers-compensation insurance information, weekly or monthly schedules, drug testing, direct-route travel information, and approval for deviations. Participants must stay in jail at least one day per week and may not be out more than six consecutive days.

The Dunn County Huber page links work-release fees and registration-packet information.

Huber details matter for population and custody status because roster entries may show Serving Sentence/Huber rather than ordinary secure confinement.

Participants must report alcohol and drug free and submit to urinalysis or preliminary breath testing before Huber dorm placement and release. A positive initial test blocks Huber release until a negative result, with retest eligibility every ten days. Short-term, temporary, or out-of-state employment is not permitted. Ordinary work shifts are eight hours unless expanded with permission, and total work and travel cannot exceed 12 hours per day.

Programs, MAT, and Reentry

Dunn County Jail has documented programming beyond basic custody. Jail programs include AODA evaluations or assessments through Arbor Place at inmate expense when ordered by probation, parole, or court; Adulting class about every other month; Alcoholics Anonymous every other Wednesday evening for males and monthly for females; Art Exploration through UW-Stout Art Education students; Beyond Trauma when there are enough participants; GED classes for adults; and HSED classes when a Menomonie High School teacher is available for inmates under 21.

The Dunn County Jail Programs page lists education, recovery, life-skills, and trauma programming available through the jail.

The program list helps explain why the facility page should cover treatment, education, and Huber work release along with roster lookup.

The jail also offers Medication Assisted Treatment for incarcerated people struggling with alcohol or opioid addiction. The MAT page says the program is free at the jail, currently offers Vivitrol, uses group and individual sessions, and includes care management before community release. The listed contact is Sheli Jo Metzger, CSAC, PS, Substance Abuse Counselor, at 715-231-2980 and sjmetzger@co.dunn.wi.us. The Jail Garden is maintained by Huber/work-release inmates with work-search privileges and working inmates volunteering on days off; proceeds are donated to the Food Pantry.

Directions, Parking, and Visitor Arrival

Dunn County Jail is on the Dunn County Judicial Center campus at 615 Stokke Parkway in Menomonie. Visitors coming from I-94 generally exit toward Menomonie and route to the Judicial Center or Stokke Parkway area, but the official jail sources do not publish turn-by-turn highway directions. Use a live map for the last turn. Visitors coming from central Menomonie should route to the Judicial Center rather than the county government office at 3001 US Highway 12 East, which is a different county office location.

The sheriff's jail page gives the key parking distinction: the upper parking lot is for courthouse access, and the lower parking lot is for Sheriff, Jail, and City Police. Use the lower lot for jail business unless staff direct otherwise. Official jail pages did not publish a bus route, rail station, fare, walking-time instruction, ADA entrance, or accessible-parking description. Call the jail or Business Office & Records before travel if accessible entry or visitor parking is a concern.

About Dunn County Jail

Sheriff Kevin Bygd is identified on sheriff materials as the current sheriff. A 2026 WEAU item based on sheriff office release said he filed candidacy paperwork on April 15, 2026 and had served with the Sheriff's Office for 37 years, including seven and a half as sheriff. Another 2026 development is the Dunn County Sheriff, WI smartphone app, which advertises addiction and substance-use resources, news and updates, push notifications, an online jail roster, online reporting modules, and links for jail visitation and canteen accounts. The app is not for emergencies; emergency reports go to 911.
