This is a private reference site, not a Pennington County government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, retrieve official booking records, or decide a record's legal status. Only the responsible government office can provide those answers.

For Pennington County jail, booking, or agency-record questions, start with the official contacts below. The sheriff and Records Division, not this site, can confirm current custody or release an official record.
Pennington County Sheriff's Office

Thief River Falls, MN 56701
Mailing address: PO Box 484, Thief River Falls, MN 56701

Records Division public hours: 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m., Monday–Friday
- For the county's current-custody locator, booking-record request path, roster explanation, or correction and expungement context, use the home page and then contact the sheriff's Records Division for the official response.
- For a warrant concerning you, use Most Wanted Fugitives for the county's official resolution direction. Do not use that page to try to locate someone else.
- For court filings, hearing history, or disposition information, use Minnesota Court Records Online. A court result is separate from the jail locator.
- For a person sentenced to or supervised by the state, use the Minnesota Department of Corrections locator.
- For federal custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator. For immigration detention, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator and its stated search requirements.
- For Pennington County city-specific context, use the Thief River Falls, St. Hilaire, and Goodridge pages linked in the footer. They route back to county systems rather than separate city rosters.
The Records Division requests photo identification for report copies, may withhold material tied to an active investigation, and describes release as occurring within a reasonable time for authorized individuals. No separate county booking-photo request form, copy fee, or guaranteed turnaround was located.
