Searching the Andrew County Jail Roster

The Andrew County inmate roster is divided into two parts: current inmates and those released in the past 48 hours. The roster includes each person's identifying details, charges, booking date and number, arresting agency, bond information, and mugshots where available.

You can search the roster at missourijailroster.com. This site pulls data from the county's records system and refreshes regularly. For statewide searches, use VINE Link, which covers all Missouri county jails and state facilities in one place. VINE Link lets you search by full name, partial name, or ID number.

If you can't find someone online, call the jail at 816-324-4114 and press Option 2. Staff can confirm custody status and provide basic booking information over the phone.

State prison records are separate from county jail records. To search for someone serving a state sentence, use the Missouri DOC Offender Search. For federal cases, check the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator.

Andrew County Jail Facility Details

The Andrew County Jail opened in 2012. It holds up to 80 inmates across seven separate cell block areas. Three of those blocks are maximum security. One is medium security. Two are low-risk housing areas. The last block is used to hold individuals for investigation. This layout allows staff to manage the inmate population by risk level and charge type.

The jail houses detainees not just for Andrew County but also for several other jurisdictions. These include the City of Savannah, Country Club Village, Clinton County, Holt County, Independence, Jackson County, Lee's Summit, and Wyandotte County in Kansas. This makes Andrew County Jail a regional facility that serves a wide geographic area in northwest Missouri and the Kansas City metro edge.

Intake involves property inventory, medical screening, and standard booking procedures. After booking, detainees are assigned to a housing area based on their classification. The facility runs 24 hours a day with staff available throughout the week.

Inmates at Andrew County Jail are allowed two 30-minute visits per week. In-person visitation is held on Saturday and Sunday from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM and 1:00 PM to 4:30 PM.

Offsite visitation through Inmate Canteen is available Monday through Friday from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM for those who cannot come in person.

State and Federal Inmate Resources

The Missouri Department of Corrections runs all state prisons separately from county jails. Inmates serving longer sentences after conviction are typically transferred to a DOC facility. The DOC Offender Search at web.mo.gov lets you look up state inmates by name or offender number. The DOC also publishes a full list of state prison facilities at their address listing page.
