The Marion County IA Jail is a detention center located at 211 N Godfrey Ln Knoxville, IA which is operated locally by the Marion 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. Marion County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Knoxville 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 Iowa here.
Intake Process
Individuals who have been placed under arrest anywhere in Marion County, with the exception of Pella, are first transported to the Marion County Jail in Knoxville. Upon arrival, arrestees must complete the following steps:
Appearance in Magistrate Court
Arrestees that are unable to post bail will appear before a Magistrate Judge within 24 hours (including Saturdays and Sundays). The Judge will inform the arrestee of the charge(s) and, if appropriate, will set a bond amount.
Property
Property may NOT be left for an inmate at the Marion County Jail. Items such as hygiene products, underwear, writing materials, phone cards and snacks may be purchased through the commissary by the inmates.
Commissary
A commissary account is established for each inmate upon arrival. All monies applied toward this may be used for candy, paper, stamped envelopes, shampoo, deodorant, socks, underwear, etc. Commissary items not used are taken with the inmate upon their transfer or release. Any commissary balance will be refunded to the inmate upon their transfer or release. Money may be added to an inmate’s account by using the cashier kiosk in the lobby of the Marion County Law Enforcement Center, or by visiting, https://inmatecanteen.com or by calling Inmate Canteen at 1-715-690-2965.
