Faribault County Jail Roster Overview
The Faribault County Sheriff's Office links a public Jail Roster for the Faribault County Jail. The researched report title is "Faribault County Jail. In Custody List" with a report date and time. The roster is a current list-style report rather than a searchable form. The full report fetch timed out during inspection, so the confirmed field inventory is limited to fields visible through the official indexed report snippets and official sheriff links.
The Faribault County Sheriff's Office and jail are at the Law Enforcement Center, 320 Dr H Russ Street, Blue Earth, MN 56013. The office phone is 507-526-5148. The inmate message line is 507-571-2172. Sheriff Scott Adams is listed at 507-526-5148 ext. 2121. The sheriff office hours shown in the research are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., closed observed holidays. The Law Enforcement Center is open to the public, and the county's directions note says to enter between Farmer's Daughters Kitchen and the Shell Gas Station on Giant Drive.
The manifest includes the official Faribault County jail information page, which is the local starting point for jail-related links and the inmate message line.
Use the county jail information page for Faribault County jail-specific procedures before moving to state prison or supervision searches.
How to Use the Faribault County Inmate Roster
The jail roster is linked directly from the Sheriff's Office page. Because the research identified it as a report, not a search form, users should open the current custody list and review the visible entries rather than expecting name-search boxes or filters. If a person is not visible, confirm with the Sheriff's Office when custody status is time-sensitive or when the person may have been transferred, released, booked under another agency, or committed to DOC custody.
- Open the official Faribault County Jail Roster.
- Check the report date and time before relying on the custody list.
- Review visible entries for the person's name and available custody details.
- Call the Sheriff's Office at 507-526-5148 if the report is unavailable, stale, or unclear.
- Use MCRO or Court Administration for the underlying criminal or traffic court case, because the jail roster is not the full court case file.
- Use the Minnesota DOC public viewer for prison or state supervision status, not for ordinary county jail custody.

What an Inmate Profile Shows
The researched source did not confirm a separate clickable inmate profile. It confirmed a custody-list report and limited visible fields. Treat any extra profile fields as unconfirmed unless the live roster displays them. For court details such as formal charges, case number, hearing date, plea, sentence, or disposition, search the related Faribault County District Court case in MCRO or contact Court Administration.

| Name | The person listed in the public custody report. |
| Report Date/Time | The roster timestamp, useful for judging whether the list is current. |
| Arresting Agency | The agency connected with the custody entry when displayed. |
| Prisoner Type/Agency | Whether the person is held under a local or other-agency category when displayed. |
| Charges/Status | Limited charge or status language visible in the report snippets. |
| Sentence Date | A sentenced-entry date when the report displays it. |

| Bond, mugshot, housing, DOB | Not confirmed by the inspected official report output. |
Faribault County Jail Facilities
The official research identified one local jail facility for this page: Faribault County Jail at the Law Enforcement Center. No official jail capacity, housing-unit detail, accreditation description, booking-photo policy, medical-unit detail, or inmate-classification detail was found in the harvested county pages.

Booking and Court Case Limits
The jail roster is a custody record, not a complete criminal court file. A person can appear on the roster because of a new arrest, another agency hold, pending charges, or a sentenced custody entry. The researched roster snippets showed arresting agency, prisoner type, charges/status, sentence date, actual completion date, and dates or times. They did not confirm booking number, bond, court date, projected release, or housing unit.
Faribault County criminal, traffic, and petty misdemeanor cases are District Court records. Court records may be searched through MCRO Case Search, but MCRO warns that pending criminal, traffic, and petty cases with no conviction may not return by defendant-name search. A case number search is often stronger when the number is known. Certified court copies must come from Court Administration, not from a jail roster printout.
Visitation Hours and Rules
Faribault County's official Visiting Hours and Rules page says video visiting can be completed using Turnkey and Reliance Telephone over the internet. All visitors must be preapproved, each inmate is allowed only two visits per day if time allows, and each visitor is allowed two visits per scheduled visiting hours. Inmates awaiting initial court appearance are not allowed to visit. Contact visiting is not allowed, and visits may be canceled without notice.
The visiting page is especially important because applications may take up to one week to process and the county verifies submitted information.
| Day | Hours | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. | Video visiting through Turnkey/Reliance |
| Wednesday | 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. | Video visiting through Turnkey/Reliance |
| Friday | 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. | Video visiting through Turnkey/Reliance |
Only one visitor is allowed at a time unless the visitor is a legal guardian to a minor. Minors may visit immediate family only and must be accompanied by a legal guardian. Visitors who have been inmates of Faribault County Jail in the last three months will not be approved unless the visit is with immediate family. Visitors on supervised release, probation, or any court supervision status must have written approval from the supervising authority. Proper U.S. government or state identification is required each time.
How to Contact an Inmate
Inmate phone service is supplied by Reliance Telephone. Calls are collect or by phone card. Phone cards may be purchased through the Reliance Telephone website or by the inmate through jail commissary; cards bought elsewhere will not work. All calls except attorney calls are subject to monitoring and recording. Inmates can call limited places without charge, including probation agents and attorneys.
The manifest includes the official inmate phone system page.
For messages, correctional staff will not deliver phone messages or tell an inmate to check messages. Messages can be left at 507-571-2172, are not confidential, and the inmate is responsible for checking them. Official mail rules were not found in the harvested county pages, so mail address format, scanned-mail policy, banned items, book rules, attorney mail rules, and postcard-only rules should be confirmed directly with the jail before mailing anything.
Commissary and Inmate Funds
Faribault County Jail has a commissary system. Inmates may buy snack foods, personal hygiene products, playing cards, puzzle books, phone cards, writing and drawing products, and personal medical products. The inmate fills out an order form, and staff fill requests at night as time permits. Purchased items are handed out once per day. There are purchase limits, stock is not assured daily, and there are no returns.
The manifest includes the county's Inmate Commissary and Account System page.
Inmate accounts work like debit accounts. Money is deposited and debited when an item is purchased or a service is provided. If the inmate has Huber privileges, the Huber fee is deducted from the account. The account can go negative only for medical needs, and future deposits are applied to that balance first. Anyone may deposit money through the kiosk in the Sheriff's Office lobby or through Inmate Canteen.
Minnesota DOC and Jail Register Records
The Minnesota DOC Public Viewer is separate from the Faribault County jail roster. It covers adults committed to the Commissioner of Corrections and still under DOC jurisdiction, including people in prison or released from prison and still under supervision. DOC warns newly sentenced individuals may take several business days to display. Search methods are by name and MNDOC Offender ID.
The manifest includes the Minnesota DOC public viewer.
Use DOC for state custody and supervision status, and use the Faribault County jail roster for current local jail custody.
Minnesota also has a jail-register statute relevant to custody logs and local jail records.
Jail roster access is also shaped by Minnesota corrections and detention data law, so not every custody-related fact will be publicly displayed in the roster.
