The Sheridan Co Jail is a detention center located at 54 W 13th St Sheridan, WY which is operated locally by the Sheridan 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. Sheridan County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Sheridan 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 Wyoming here.

In 2006, the Sheridan County Detention Center was refitted to accommodate 126 inmates. Prior to that, our facility was designed to house approximately 50 inmates. The remodel and addition has provided substantially more space and allows for a more safe and secure daily operation.
