Howard County Jail and Arrest Records

Howard County Sheriff’s Office
100 N. Mulberry Street
Fayette, MO 65248
Phone: 660-248-2477
Fax: 660-248-1444
Official sheriff website

The sheriff’s main number is the verified first contact for current custody, Howard County Jail questions, and the location of an arrest or booking record. A detention number, 660-248-2490, appears in secondary directories but should be confirmed through the sheriff. No public records-unit hours were verified, so call before visiting or sending a request.

  • For a roster entry, mugshot, or booking record, use the steps on the home page.
  • For a new booking, compare the roster route on Arrested Today and call if the result is unclear.
  • For a multi-day record trail, use Arrest Reports.
  • For release alerts, see VINE Arrest Check; a missing result does not prove there was no arrest.

The clerk can route questions about filed Howard County cases. Missouri Case.net is the official online court search, but it does not confirm current jail custody. For eligible sentenced state custody or supervision records, use the Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Search. Federal BOP and ICE locators cover separate federal systems.
