The Barry Co Jail is a detention center located at 505 East St Cassville, MO which is operated locally by the Barry County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Barry County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Cassville Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.

New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for Missouri here.

In 1971, the jail and Sheriff’s office was built at its current location. It included 6 cells, a female cell, a detention cell and a kitchen. The jail could house a total of 16 inmates.

By 1995-96 it became necessary to do the first expansion of the jail. A single “pod” was added and the inmate capacity was 32.

In 2005 the need for more room was becoming more prevalent. By 2006 the daily average for inmate population was 44.

2007 – the daily average was 47

2008 – the daily average had grown to a strenuous 49.

With the new addition of 2 more “pods” the maximum capacity of the jail is now 80.

One of the unique features that we’ve included in our new pods is the triple bunks in each cell. This allows us to utilize more space effectively.

The Jail employs 11 Correctional Officers aka Jailers. This allows for a minimum of 2 per shift. This increases the safety and well being for both the Jailers and inmates.

All meals are prepared at the jail.

The jail is operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
