Official Pacific County Jail Roster
The official Pacific County Jail roster is the main public source for current local jail custody. It is run through Pacific County Jail Services, not a commercial people-search database. The roster is free, does not require a login, and is arranged as a list rather than a form with a search box. Each entry uses a name, number, booking time, a VINELink registration link, and one or more charge rows.
Pacific County jail operations changed in 2025. County proceedings created Pacific County Jail Services as a county Department of Corrections effective January 1, 2025, and the county directory lists James "Jim" Byrd as Jail Services Director. The sheriff remains a separate elected law-enforcement office. That split matters for inmate records: current custody questions start with Jail Services, while sheriff case files, city police reports, prosecutor files, and court records follow different routes.
The county roster has three useful tabs: Jail Roster for current custody, Bookings for newly posted booking rows, and Releases for names with release timestamps. The county does not publish a refresh interval, so a very recent arrest may not appear at once. A release may also move off the current roster while remaining relevant in court records or agency files.
The official roster screenshot shows the text-based format used for Pacific County inmate records.
Use the number, booked-at time, court abbreviation, and warrant or citation field together because one name may have more than one charge, hold, or court row.
Use Pacific County Roster
Because the Pacific County jail roster has no visible text-search field, the process is different from a database lookup. Open the correct tab, scan the list, or use the browser find function for the last name. Do not rely on a single charge row. The roster groups several rows under one person, and some rows may show a warrant, DOC violation, transport matter, or hold for another agency instead of a new arrest.
- Open the Jail Roster tab for a person believed to be in current Pacific County Jail custody.
- Use browser find or scan the list by name, then confirm the person with the jail number and booked-at time.
- Read every charge row under the person. Check arresting agency, court, bond type, bond amount, warrant or citation number, and description.
- Use the Bookings tab if the arrest is recent and the current roster entry has not yet been easy to locate.
- Use the Releases tab if the person was in custody earlier but no longer appears in current custody.
- Use the Register link or WA VINE/VINELink to receive custody-status notifications.
Pacific County inmate records may show abbreviations rather than full office names. PCSO points to the sheriff, RPD to Raymond Police Department, LBPD to Long Beach Police Department, SBPD to South Bend Police Department, WSP to Washington State Patrol, and DOC to Washington State Department of Corrections. SUP generally points to Superior Court, while NDC and SDC point to the North and South Pacific District Court systems.
Note: A roster entry is a starting point for custody, not proof that the listed charge became a final court conviction.
Pacific County Roster Fields
The roster does not ask for first name, last name, date of birth, or booking number as search inputs. Instead, the public sees the posted jail register and charge table. Those fields are still important because they tell the reader which agency, court, and release path may control the next step.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jail Roster | Tab/link | n/a | Current in-custody list, with no visible text search field. |
| Bookings | Tab/link | n/a | Recent booking list with name, number, booking time, VINE link, and charge rows. |
| Releases | Tab/link | n/a | Recent release list showing name and released-at timestamp. |
| Name | Displayed field | n/a | Usually displayed in last, first, middle or suffix format. |
| Number | Displayed field | n/a | Jail or person number used for custody questions and mail identification. |
| Booked At | Displayed field | n/a | Timestamp for jail booking, not always the same as arrest date. |
| Register | Link | Optional | Opens VINELink registration for custody notifications. |
| Charge Row | Displayed table | n/a | Shows arrest date, arresting agency, court, billing agency, bond, warrant/citation number, and description. |
Pacific County Inmate Record Fields
Pacific County's public inmate record is not a profile page with a photo and demographics. It is closer to a public jail-register display. The useful fields are custody and charge fields: name, number, booking time, VINE registration, arresting agency, court, bond type, bond amount, warrant or citation number, and the short description field. The fields that are not shown are just as important for expectations.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name | Person listed on the current roster, bookings tab, or releases tab. |
| Number | Numeric jail/person identifier useful for mail, NCIC, and custody questions. |
| Booked At | Jail booking timestamp for current and booked entries. |
| VINE Register | Custody-notification signup link, not a full booking file. |
| Arresting Agency | Agency tied to the arrest or hold, such as PCSO, RPD, LBPD, SBPD, WSP, or DOC. |
| Court | Court or custody authority abbreviation, including SUP, NDC, SDC, DOC, or municipal labels. |
| Bond | Bond type and amount per row, including cash/surety, same case, sentenced, or no-bail language. |
| Not Displayed | Mugshot, DOB, age, physical description, housing unit, court date, medical status, classification, and sentence calculations. |
For booking photos, use the separate Pacific County jail mugshots discussion because the official roster entries reviewed did not display mugshots.
Pacific County Custody Paths
Not every person connected to Pacific County will appear on the county roster. The local roster covers people held at Pacific County Jail, including adults awaiting court, serving local sentences, held on warrants, held for local agencies, or held on DOC community-custody violations. Sentenced state-prison custody moves to the Washington State Department of Corrections system. Federal custody and immigration detention use different national tools.
| Custody Situation | Where to Look | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Current local jail custody | Pacific County Jail roster | Best source for local pretrial, warrant, hold, and short-sentence custody. |
| Recent booking or release | County Bookings or Releases tabs | Useful when the person has just entered or left the jail. |
| Sentenced state prisoner | WA DOC incarcerated search | Used after prison transfer or for statewide DOC incarceration. |
| Custody notifications | WA VINE/VINELink | Registers for custody-status notices from jail or DOC systems. |
| Federal inmate | BOP inmate locator | Searches federal inmates from 1982 to present. |
| Immigration detainee | ICE Online Detainee Locator System | Used for ICE detention, including regional facilities outside Pacific County. |
The WA DOC incarcerated search uses DOC number, first name, and last name fields rather than Pacific County booking fields.
That state locator is the correct channel after a Pacific County case results in prison custody, while the county jail roster remains the local jail source.
Pacific County Records Requests
If the roster does not give enough detail, choose the records channel based on who made or keeps the record. Pacific County's public-records routing page says sheriff case files can be requested through the Public Records Center. It also warns that case files from Raymond Police Department, South Bend Police Department, and Long Beach Police Department must be requested from those agencies directly. Court files are different again and must be requested from the appropriate court or clerk under court-record rules.
The arresting agency field on the roster is the practical key. A PCSO row may route to the sheriff or county Public Records Center. RPD, SBPD, and LBPD rows point to city police records. A DOC row may involve community custody. A SUP, NDC, or SDC court label points the reader toward Superior Court, North District Court, or South District Court for the court case record.
- Public jail register
- The basic name, confinement cause, booking, and discharge information Washington makes public under the jail-register rule.
- Confidential jail record
- Detailed confinement material, such as classification or medical information, that may be withheld or redacted.
- Police case file
- The incident or investigation record held by the arresting agency, not by the jail roster.
- Court file
- The official case record kept by the court or clerk after charges, hearings, warrants, or judgments are filed.
Pacific County Jail Contact
Pacific County has one active adult detention facility identified for this site: Pacific County Jail in South Bend. It holds adult offenders awaiting pretrial proceedings and adult offenders sentenced at misdemeanor and felony levels. It also handles local warrants, holds, DOC violations, and court transport/security for county court matters. For custody questions that the roster does not answer, call Jail Services or use the public counter at the county public safety campus during appropriate business access.

Pacific County Booking Process
Pacific County does not publish a complete public booking manual. The usable public path is arrest or warrant service, transport to Pacific County Jail, intake and booking, roster posting, VINE registration availability, court appearance or prosecutor review, and then release, bond, sentence, transfer, or hold status. The roster confirms that bookings can involve PCSO, city police, Washington State Patrol, DOC, and court or municipal authorities.
A jail charge label is not always the final court charge. Prosecutor review and court filing may change the count, wording, or case status after booking. A warrant or citation number on the roster may be the best bridge from a custody record to the court record. For the court path after booking, use the Washington Courts search or the local court/clerk that matches the roster abbreviation.
Pacific County Jail Visitation
The official jail page states that in-person family and friend visitation is not available at this time. Pacific County uses NCIC for remote visitation, phone calls, text messaging, tablets, education, and entertainment features. A kiosk is available in the jail waiting area for remote visitation. The newer Jail Services press material says tablets are assigned for use from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
| Channel | Provider | Availability | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-person family visits | n/a | Not available at this time | Use remote visitation instead. |
| Remote video visits | NCIC | Tablet access stated as 6 a.m.-10 p.m. | Jail waiting-area kiosk is also available for remote visits. |
| Phone calls | NCIC | Wall phones and secure tablets | Set up through NCIC or listed phone support. |
| Text messaging | NCIC tablet platform | Tablet-based | Introduced with the 2025 NCIC communications change. |
| Education and entertainment | NCIC tablet platform | Tablet access stated as 6 a.m.-10 p.m. | Educational time can earn entertainment credits one-to-one. |
Pacific County Inmate Mail
Letter mail uses NCIC scanning. The researched address format is inmate name, name number or SO number, Pacific County Jail, PO Box 591, Longview, TX 75606. Books, magazines, newspapers, bulk mail, and packages are not accepted at that Longview scanning address and will be returned. The jail page says those items must be sent to the facility where the inmate is housed if permitted, so confirm with Jail Services before mailing anything beyond a letter.
No official Pacific County commissary ordering page or fee table was located in the official pages reviewed. NCIC materials do document prepaid accounts for phone calling, visitation, and messaging through 1-800-943-2189 or NCIC.com. Treat that as communications funding unless Jail Services confirms a separate commissary deposit method.
Note: Confirm current custody, name number, and mail rules with Jail Services before sending funds, books, packages, or scanned letter mail.
Pacific County App Status
No official Pacific County Sheriff's Office or Pacific County Jail Services mobile app was located in the official app sweep. No app-only roster, warrant search, most-wanted lookup, or booking-alert tool was found for Pacific County agencies. The practical replacement is the official web roster, the Bookings and Releases tabs, WA VINE/VINELink, the Public Records Center, court search, and agency phone contacts.
For federal custody, the BOP locator screenshot illustrates the separate federal lookup path.
Use BOP or ICE only when the person is in federal or immigration custody, not for ordinary Pacific County Jail custody.
