Dunn County Jail Mugshots
The official Dunn County roster PDF is titled "Current Inmate List- With Mugshot." The inspected PDF contained image objects for roster entries, and the listed fields include booking date, hold reasons, holding type, release date, intake status, name, and date of birth. That is the public photo path found in the research. No official Dunn County recent-bookings gallery, released-inmate mugshot gallery, daily booking-photo archive, or separate prior-booking-photo database was located.
The roster is current-custody oriented. The Dunn County Current Inmate Listing page links to the current roster PDF, and the jail page says the roster is updated daily between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. Bookings and releases after that update may not be reflected until the next report. A mugshot missing from the public PDF should not be treated as proof that no booking photo exists.
What is and isn't public: Dunn County publishes booking-photo images with current roster entries when available. The research did not find a county-run historical mugshot archive or released-inmate photo gallery.
Find Dunn County Booking Photos
Dunn County booking photos are found by inspecting the roster visually, not by opening a dedicated image profile. Use a name and DOB match before relying on a photo, especially when a last name is common. If the person was booked after the daily update, call the jail. If the person has dropped from the current list, ask the sheriff's records office what public-records request process applies to the booking photo.
- Open the Dunn County Current Inmate Listing page and follow the roster PDF link.
- Search the PDF by last name with the browser or PDF find tool.
- Confirm the listing by name, DOB, booking date, hold reason, and holding type.
- Inspect the listing for the roster image tied to that current custody record.
- Call the Dunn County Jail at (715) 232-2220 for same-day custody changes.
- For a missing or older photo, contact Sheriff's Business Office and Records at (715) 232-1564.
The Dunn County Sheriff app is another official access channel. The sheriff app page advertises an online jail roster plus links for visitation and canteen accounts. It is also available through the Apple App Store and Google Play. The research did not confirm a separate app-only mugshot archive, so app results should be verified against the county jail and records office when accuracy matters.
Dunn County Mugshot Record Fields
A Dunn County mugshot appears in the context of a roster record. The photo is only one part of the entry. The surrounding fields matter because they show whether the person is listed for an arrest, warrant, probation or parole hold, sentence, additional agency hold, or intake status. The public roster text did not expose a full physical description, booking number, bond amount, housing unit, court branch, or case number.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking photo | A current roster image when available. Treat it as a booking image linked to jail custody. |
| Name | Last and first name, with middle names not consistently visible in extracted text. |
| Date of birth | DOB beneath the name, useful to separate people with similar names. |
| Booking Date | The date the person entered the Dunn County Jail for the listed custody event. |
| Current Hold Reasons | Charges, warrants, probation or parole holds, sentenced status, additional holds, and statute labels where entered. |
| Holding Type | Examples include Felony Arrest, Misdemeanor Arrest, Probation/Parole Hold, Serving Sentence/Huber, and Convicted. |
| Release Date | A projected or scheduled date when entered. A blank field should be verified before action. |
| Is Currently Intake | A yes or no status showing whether the person is still in intake processing. |
A booking photo is not a conviction. For formal filed charges, court dates, dispositions, and case outcomes after a Dunn County arrest, use Dunn County court records after jail arrest and WCCA rather than reading the roster photo as a final court result.
Dunn County Mugshots and Wisconsin Law
Wisconsin does not appear in the research as a state with one blanket rule requiring every booking photo to be posted online. Public access starts with Wis. Stat. 19.35, the public-records access statute. It gives requesters a right to inspect or receive copies of records unless another law, common law, or the public-records balancing test permits withholding. That balancing test matters for jail and law-enforcement records.
Key statutes:
Wis. Stat. 19.35 controls public access to records, subject to legal limits and balancing.
Wis. Stat. 165.83(2)(a)3 references photographs forwarded in the criminal-identification context, but it is not an automatic online mugshot-posting rule.
Wis. Stat. 973.015 governs qualifying expungement by court order after successful completion.
A Dunn County booking photo may be a public record, but release can still be affected by active investigations, juvenile confidentiality, victim or witness safety, sealed matters, institutional security, or privacy interests. The safest request route is practical and local: call Sheriff's Business Office and Records at (715) 232-1564, identify the person and booking date if known, and ask how the office receives public-records requests for booking photos.
Dunn County Mugshot Removal
No Dunn County page was found promising mugshot removal after dismissal, acquittal, or expungement. Because the official roster is current-custody oriented and updated daily, the practical online drop-off is release from the current list rather than a separate removal application for a historical gallery. If a photo stays visible in a public record after the current custody event, ask the records office which record controls that display.
Expungement is a court process, not a private website shortcut. Wisconsin's expungement statute applies only where the law allows and the court orders it after successful completion. A dismissal or acquittal also does not automatically erase every jail, arrest, or agency record. Commercial mugshot publishers can copy images from public sources, but the county may not control a third-party copy once it leaves the official system. Do not pay for a claimed removal service without legal advice and source verification.
When a photo is tied to a sealed case, juvenile matter, wrong-person concern, safety issue, or court order, contact the agency that controls the record. For court-file status, WCCA and the Clerk of Circuit Court are the next channels. For current jail status and booking records, the Dunn County Jail and Sheriff's records office remain the direct local contacts.
Dunn County Photos Across Systems
Photo access changes when the custody system changes. The Dunn County Jail roster covers current county jail custody. The Wisconsin DOC Offender Locator is for sentenced state prisoners and DOC supervision records, not pretrial county jail custody. DOC profile photos, when shown, are DOC records. They are not the same as Dunn County booking photos.
| System | Photo or Mugshot Access | Use When |
|---|---|---|
| Dunn County Jail | Current roster PDF says "With Mugshot" and may show roster images. | The person is in local Dunn County jail custody. |
| Wisconsin DOC | DOC public profiles may show a photo where available. | The person has moved to state prison or DOC supervision. |
| Wisconsin VINE | VINE is for custody and case notification, not a mugshot gallery. | Custody-status alerts are needed. |
| Federal BOP | The BOP locator generally does not publish federal mugshots. | The person is a sentenced federal prisoner from 1982 to the present. |
| ICE ODLS | ICE ODLS is a custody locator, not a public mugshot database. | The person may be an adult immigration detainee. |
No BOP institution or ICE detention facility was found inside Dunn County. A 2026 Warrant Service Officer agreement was reported as detainer service for people already in Dunn County Jail on local criminal charges, not as a county-run immigration detention center. For custody facts, use the right locator rather than assuming one roster covers all agencies.
Request Dunn County Mugshot Records
A records request should be narrow. Give the person's full name, DOB if known, booking date if known, and the type of record requested, such as a booking photo tied to a specific Dunn County Jail booking. Ask whether any fee, ID requirement, redaction, or format rule applies before sending payment or personal data. The research did not locate a dedicated online open-records form for Dunn County jail mugshots, so phone routing is the documented path.
For current custody, call Dunn County Jail at (715) 232-2220. For records routing, call Sheriff's Business Office and Records at (715) 232-1564. In-person public-records questions should be routed through the Dunn County Judicial Center, 615 Stokke Parkway, Menomonie, WI 54751. If the photo relates to court status, charge filing, expungement, or a sealed case, the Clerk of Circuit Court and WCCA may be needed in addition to the sheriff's office.
The county roster should be used with care. It is a current jail record. It is not a full criminal-history report, a final judgment, a court disposition, or a consumer-screening file. For custody fields beyond the public roster, use the broader Dunn County inmate records process through Dunn County jail inmate records and the local records office.
