The Phelps ICE is a detention center located at 715 5th Ave Holdrege, NE which is operated locally by the Phelps 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. Phelps County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Holdrege 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 Nebraska here.

The Phelps County Jail incarcerates a variety of inmate populations varying from the local intake from the County Sheriff, and by contract to the Nebraska Department of Corrections state-adjudicated offenders, federal inmates from the FBOP, and immigration detainees from Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE). Phelps County also accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Holdrege Police Department. There are new detainees delivered to the jail daily, see Arrest Records here. Some are released after putting up bail, are released to a pretrial services caseload, are placed under supervision by a probation agency, or are released on their recognizance with an agreement to appear in court. If there is no release, the inmate must wait here at the jail for their court appearance as a guest of the County, getting a bed and three square meals.

Trustees are inmates who work in the jail as cooks, as orderlies for the staff, in the laundry, or in the commissary. The trustees are paid a very small amount for their time and some jail gives the trustees a few days off their sentence in exchange for their work.
