Daggett County Inmate Population Status
The central fact about the Daggett County inmate population is that the county jail is closed. The official Daggett County Jail page says the jail closed in February 2017 and does not appear likely to reopen. It directs jail inquiries to the Daggett County Sheriff's Office. That means there is no current public Daggett County jail roster, no daily inmate count from a live county detention center, and no public county booking portal to refresh after an arrest.
Daggett County still has arrest records, incident reports, court cases, warrants, victim notification, and state or federal custody records. The search path depends on what happened after the arrest. A new local arrest starts with the sheriff. Filed charges move to Daggett County Justice Court, 8th District Court, MyCase, or Utah Courts Xchange. A sentenced state prisoner moves to the Utah Department of Corrections locator. Federal and immigration custody use BOP or ICE systems.
Daggett County Inmate Population Counts
The useful Daggett County inmate population figures are historical and should be read that way. County sources do not publish a current average daily population because the jail is not operating. Older counts show why the former jail mattered: the facility was tied to Utah's state inmate placement system, not just local pretrial detention.
The official sheriff page gives another local clue. Daggett County has a small resident base and heavy recreation traffic, with the sheriff page describing a county population of 963 and nearly 2 million visitors each year. That workload context does not create a current jail count, but it explains why sheriff records, courts, and regional coordination still matter after the jail closure.
| Measure | Figure | Source / Date |
|---|---|---|
| Current operating county jail population | 0 / no operating county jail | Official county jail page, inspected July 1, 2026 |
| Historical jail capacity reference | 80 beds / 80 state inmates moved | UDC transfer release and Utah AG jail history, 2017 |
| Historical prisoners in Census vintage table | 75 local prisoners | Daggett Co. Jail survey date, December 31, 2013 |
| Resident population workload context | 963 residents | Daggett County Sheriff's Office page |
| Visitor workload context | Nearly 2 million visitors annually | Daggett County Sheriff's Office page |
Daggett County Jail Population Trends
Daggett County inmate population trends do not follow the usual pattern of rising or falling daily roster counts. The key trend is the end of local jail operations. A historical correctional-population table listed 75 prisoners at the Daggett jail as of a 2013 survey date. In February 2017, the Utah Department of Corrections moved 80 state inmates out of the Daggett County Jail during an investigation. The official county page now describes the jail as closed.
That break matters for every lookup. A person arrested in Daggett County today should not be expected to appear in a Daggett jail roster. A court record may still open in Daggett County. A sentenced prison record may still appear in UDC. A victim or family member may still register with Utah VINE. The population trend table is therefore a closure timeline, not a current census.
| Year / Date | Count or Status | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 12/31/2013 | 75 | Historical Daggett Co. Jail correctional population figure |
| February 2017 | About 80 state inmates transferred | UDC removed state inmates during the jail investigation |
| February 2017 onward | Closed | Official county page says the jail closed |
| July 1, 2026 inspection | No current roster located | County page still routes jail inquiries to the sheriff |
Daggett County Jail Reporting Laws
Utah law explains why an operating jail would report population data and why some inmate records can still be requested even when no online roster exists. Utah Code 17-72-408 requires county jail reporting for average daily prisoner population, bookings, race and ethnicity counts, contract holds, and public death-in-custody information. That law is important background, but it does not create a current Daggett jail census where no jail is operating.
For records, Utah Code 63G-2-201 sets the baseline right to inspect public records, while Utah Code 63G-2-204 covers written GRAMA request procedures. Some details can still be withheld under restricted classifications, including protected investigative records, private personal data, juvenile material, sealed cases, and security-sensitive jail information.
Key statutes: Utah Code 17-72-408 covers county jail population reporting. Utah Code 63G-2-201 covers public-record inspection. Utah Code 63G-2-204 explains written GRAMA request handling. Utah Code 63A-19-401 adds privacy context for government data processing and public display.
No Current Daggett County Jail Roster
The official Daggett County jail page is the source that changes the search process. It says the jail closed in February 2017 and routes all jail inquiries to the sheriff's department at 435-784-3255. The page does not publish inmate search fields, booking cards, mugshot galleries, housing units, visitation times, commissary vendors, or a new-booking desk.
The Daggett County Sheriff's Office page links to records-request, UDC, and VINE resources, which confirms that current users need multiple channels. For local sheriff records, the official sheriff directory gives the office at 590 S Sheriff's Way in Manila, the main phone line, dispatch routing through Vernal, and Monday through Friday office hours.
The county jail closure notice is shown on the official jail page screenshot in the project image set. The source is the Daggett County Jail page.
That image belongs with the roster discussion because it documents why the Daggett County inmate population cannot be searched through a normal county jail list.
Search Daggett County Inmate Records
A Daggett County inmate search starts by deciding which agency would hold the record. For a local arrest, local booking question, police report, or historical jail record, use the sheriff. For a court charge after an arrest, use Utah Courts Xchange, MyCase if a party has account access, or the local court. For state prison, probation, or parole, use UDC. For federal or immigration custody, use the federal locator tied to that system.
- Call the Daggett County Sheriff's Office at 435-784-3255 for local jail inquiries, arrest records, and current custody routing.
- Use the sheriff's report request form for police reports, incident records, arrest details, or releasable photos.
- Use the Daggett County GRAMA page when the request is broader or needs formal public-record handling.
- Search Utah Courts Xchange for filed charges, hearings, judgments, and outcomes after an arrest.
- Check UDC Offender Search only when the person is sentenced or under Utah corrections supervision.
- Use BOP or ICE ODLS only for federal sentenced prisoners or immigration detainees.
Daggett County Inmate Search Fields
Because no live Daggett County jail roster exists, there is no county roster search form to document. The practical field list is split between the sheriff records form, UDC, and court systems. A caller or requester should gather the full legal name, any known date of birth, approximate arrest or incident date, case or citation number, and arresting agency before contacting records staff.
| Channel | Fields or Identifiers | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Daggett sheriff inquiry | Name, incident date, report number if known | Local arrest, police report, booking, or historical jail question |
| Sheriff report request | Requester name, contact information, incident/case number, incident details, relationship to record | Copies or inspection of police-report records |
| UDC Offender Search | Name or UDC ID number | State prison, probation, or parole status |
| Utah Xchange | First name, last name, business name, case number, court filters | Filed court charges and case events |
| BOP locator | Register, DCDC, FBI, INS number, or name fields | Federal custody |
| ICE ODLS | A-number and country of birth, or biographical search | Immigration custody |
Daggett County Records Requests
The sheriff's report request form is the most concrete local records channel for Daggett County inmate population questions tied to a police report, arrest, incident, or photo. The form asks for requester identity, contact information, incident or case report number, a narrative with date, time, and names, and a relationship checkbox. It offers copies or inspection. The listed fee is $20 for the initial police report and $1 per photo, with no charge to view or inspect a record.
For county records outside that sheriff report path, the Daggett County GRAMA page offers electronic submission and a fillable PDF that can be submitted by email, mail, or in person. GRAMA is the formal route when a person needs a broader records request or when the sheriff PDF does not fit the record sought.
The county GRAMA page screenshot is a useful source for the broader public-record channel. The image comes from the Daggett County GRAMA Requests page.
Use that channel for formal county records, while keeping sheriff report requests first for sheriff-maintained police and arrest records.
Daggett County Jail vs State Prison
County jail records and state prison records answer different questions. Daggett County Jail records relate to local arrest, booking, incident, and historical jail matters. UDC records relate to people currently under Utah Department of Corrections custody or supervision. UDC expressly warns that its offender search is only for people under UDC supervision and does not include people awaiting trial or not yet sentenced in county jail facilities.
| Record System | Who It Covers | Where to Look |
|---|---|---|
| Daggett sheriff records | Local arrest, incident, police report, and historical jail records | Sheriff phone, in person, mail, report request, or GRAMA |
| Utah Courts | Charges filed after arrest, hearings, warrants, judgments, outcomes | Xchange, MyCase, Justice Court, 8th District Court |
| Utah Department of Corrections | State prison, probation, and parole supervision | UDC Offender Search |
| Federal BOP | Federal sentenced prisoners | BOP Inmate Locator |
| ICE | Immigration detainees | ICE Online Detainee Locator System |
Daggett County Court Records After Arrest
When a local arrest becomes a criminal case, court records are separate from jail records. Daggett County Justice Court handles Class B and C misdemeanors and infractions. Its page says the court generally meets the second Wednesday and Thursday of each month, uses Webex for many appearances, and warns that missed court can lead to a bench warrant. Daggett County 8th District Court handles district-level matters and is held locally one day per month, with a public court computer at the clerk's office.
Utah Courts Xchange is the statewide public case-search route for public case summary information entered into CORIS. It can show parties, judges, attorneys, documents filed, hearings, judgments, and outcomes. It is not a jail roster. It will not show sealed or expunged cases, juvenile delinquency, child welfare, termination of parental rights, and other nonpublic records.
Daggett County Mugshots and Photos
Daggett County jail mugshots are not posted in a current county roster because no active roster was located. The sheriff report request form supports photo-copy language by listing a $1 per photo fee, but that does not mean every booking photo is public or releasable. Booking photos can be limited by GRAMA classifications, privacy law, sealed or expunged case status, juvenile restrictions, investigation needs, and security concerns.
State and federal systems are different. A UDC profile may include a corrections photo when available, but it is not a Daggett County booking mugshot. BOP and ICE locators are custody tools, not public mugshot galleries. Court records generally show charges and case events, not booking-photo galleries.
Daggett County Detention Facilities
The facility map resolves to one Daggett County facility page. The Daggett County Jail is still the relevant facility because it is the official county jail named in county sources, tied to historical population counts, records, jail inquiries, and closure history. It should not be read as an operating jail.
- Daggett County Jail - closed county jail in Manila; inquiries route to the Daggett County Sheriff's Office.
Daggett County Custody Terms
The same person may have records in several systems. These terms help keep the search focused.
- Booking
- Administrative custody intake after arrest, often including identity, fingerprints, property, photo, and arrest allegations.
- Charge
- An alleged offense filed or tracked in court. A charge is not the same as a conviction.
- Detainer
- A hold or request from another agency that may block release from the first custody matter.
- UDC
- Utah Department of Corrections, the state system for prison, probation, and parole supervision.
- GRAMA
- Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act, used for public-record requests and classifications.
