How the Scott County Inmate Search Works

The Scott County inmate search is the live roster displayed at the top of this page. You can use the roster search field to filter current jail records by inmate name, booking number, or listed charge. This inmate lookup for Scott County is meant for current custody information, not full court case history.

The roster shows booking information pulled from official jail custody data. The visible fields may include the inmate's name, booking number, booked-at date, listed charges, and custody or case status. The "View Details" option can expand a record to show additional charge information when more than one charge is listed.

Charge labels on the Scott County jail roster may include Minnesota-style severity indicators such as "F" for felony, "G" for gross misdemeanor, or "M" for misdemeanor when those codes appear in the booking data. Status labels may also show information such as agency hold, awaiting hearing, bail or bond status, court pending, or in custody.

The Scott County Jail roster is not the same as a court docket. Jail roster information identifies people currently or recently held in jail custody, while court records are handled separately through Scott County District Court and Minnesota Court Records Online, known as MCRO. MCRO does not replace certified court records, and certified copies must be requested through local court administration.

Posting Bail at Scott County Jail

Bail for a Scott County Jail inmate is set by the court, not by the jail. If bail has been ordered, payment may be made through the Scott County Jail lobby or online through Access Corrections when the "Pay Bond" option is available. The provided Scott County information confirms that bail may be paid by cash or credit card.

Call Scott County Jail at 952-496-8314 before going to the facility to confirm the inmate is still eligible for release, the current bail amount, and any court-ordered conditions. Bail status can change after a hearing, a warrant review, a new charge, or a court order.

Minnesota bail conditions may include no-contact orders, OFP or DANCO restrictions, firearm surrender requirements, DWI-related conditions, chemical testing, pretrial evaluation, or other release rules ordered by the court. The jail can process the release only after the required bail and release conditions are satisfied.

Sending Money to an Inmate

Money deposit options for a Scott County Jail inmate should be confirmed with the jail before sending funds. The data provided confirms Access Corrections is used for online bail payments, but it does not confirm the current approved commissary deposit platform for inmate spending money. Call Scott County Jail at 952-496-8314 to confirm current approved deposit methods for commissary or inmate accounts.

Scott County Jail charges a $30 booking fee per booking. If other fees, medical charges, work release costs, or account deductions apply, call the jail before depositing money so you understand how funds may be applied to an inmate account.

Inmate Communication

Scott County Jail uses ICSolutions for inmate phone service and video visitation. For account support, ICSolutions can be reached at 888-506-8407. Inmates cannot receive incoming calls, so family and friends must wait for the inmate to place an outgoing call through the approved phone system.

Scott County Jail also uses GTL / GettingOut for electronic messaging. The provided fee for electronic messages is $0.25 per message. Electronic messages may be reviewed by jail staff, and inmates on disciplinary status may not be able to receive electronic messages.

Mail for an inmate should include the incarcerated person's full name and the jail's mailing address. Use the following format: Incarcerated Person Full Name, Scott County Jail, 301 Fuller Street South, Shakopee, MN 55379. Mail and phone calls may be monitored, except for confidential legal communication.
