Blaine County Jail Overview

Blaine County Jail is operated by the Blaine County Sheriff's Office in Watonga. The sheriff's jail information page describes it as a medium-to-maximum security county jail. It holds men and women awaiting trial, people sentenced through the Blaine County Court System to one year or less, and people arrested by municipal police departments in Blaine County communities. Sheriff Travis Daugherty is the current sheriff named on the official biography page, and Stacey Walters is listed as jail administrator on the current jail information page.

The sheriff's public site gives Blaine County details that help explain the jail's role. Deputies patrol a rural county area with communities such as Watonga, Canton, Geary, Greenfield, Hitchcock, Hydro, Longdale, Okeene, Southard, and others listed by the sheriff site. A person arrested by a municipal police department in one of those communities may still be booked into the county jail and appear on the sheriff roster if held locally.

This page should not be confused with Diamondback Correctional Facility. Both facilities are in Watonga, but Diamondback is a CoreCivic facility with ICE listed as customer base. The Blaine County Jail roster does not serve as the main locator for Diamondback detainees, sentenced ODOC prisoners, or federal prisoners after transfer.

The official jail information page shows the current facility address, jail role, security level, administrator, phone, and fax.

The jail information screenshot supports the current address and contact details used for local jail lookup and visitor planning.

Blaine County Jail Capacity and Population

The sheriff site did not publish a current official jail bed capacity. The research file found Vera Incarceration Trends rated capacity of 35 for 2021 through 2023, with the 2024 capacity field blank. The public roster showed 36 listed results on June 25, 2026. Those figures are useful but different: the roster count is a point-in-time public list, while Vera is a county data series.

Vera reported total jail population of 49 in 2022, 36 in 2023, and 35 in 2024. It also reported pretrial population of 29.6 in 2023. No official annual bookings, average length of stay, current jail population dashboard, or sex/race breakdown was located on the sheriff site.

How to Look Up Blaine County Jail Inmates

Use the Blaine County Jail inmate search for current county custody. It displays a Search by Name field, current booking cards, and View Details links. The detail page can show a booking mugshot, full name, sex, race, age label, residing city, inmate ID, and charge list.

1. Open the sheriff's inmate search page.
2. Search by name, using ordinary spelling first.
3. Check the booking card for the name and booked date/time.
4. Open View Details to confirm the mugshot, inmate ID, city, and charges.
5. Call the jail at (580) 623-9965 if the record is missing, delayed, or unclear.

For a released person or older booking photo, use a written Oklahoma Open Records Act request directed to the sheriff's office. Include the person's full name, booking date if known, local inmate ID or BookingID if known, and the record type requested.

Blaine County Jail Address and Contact

The current sheriff site instructs readers to note the new location at 220 N. Burford in Watonga. Older official material still lists 205 N. Burford or 212 N. Weigle, so use the current sheriff-site address for directions and call before traveling if another document gives a different location.

Visiting Blaine County Jail Inmates

Personal visits at Blaine County Jail are handled through NCIC Inmate Communication Systems. The sheriff's visitation page gives four steps: create an account on the NCIC site, select Blaine County Facility, select the inmate, and choose the visit date and time. Visits are a privilege, can be monitored and recorded, and may be shut off for rule violations, nudity, illegal activity, or improper behavior.

Mail Phone and Money at Blaine County Jail

Mail should be addressed to the inmate name, c/o Blaine County Jail, 220 N. Burford, Watonga, OK 73772. The sheriff's current mail policy says mail is opened and checked for contraband, must include the sender's first and last name plus return address, and cannot be inmate-to-inmate correspondence. Banned items include newspapers, magazines, Polaroids, too many photos, pens, pencils, stamps, envelopes, blank paper, musical cards, and items that cannot be scanned.

Blaine County Jail Medical Services

The jail's medical-services page identifies Turnkey Health as the medical provider. It says a nurse is present 12 hours per week over two visits when available and that a Tele-Med provider is available once per week. Non-emergency medical or dental care starts with a Medical Request Form. Medication must be taken in front of jail staff, and the policy describes crushing medication into water unless otherwise stated to prevent hoarding or passing medication.

Blaine County Jail Court and Bond Fallbacks

The roster sample did not show bond amount or bond type. To confirm bond, call the jail, then check court records after a case opens. The Blaine County Court Clerk maintains District Court records and can help with copies and court docket questions. ODCR and OSCN are the main online court search portals for filed charges, bond-related docket entries, warrants tied to a case, and final disposition.

If jail staff say a person has a hold or detainer, ask which agency controls the hold before planning release. A person can have a local bond and still remain in custody because of another county, state, federal, parole, or immigration hold. That is also why court records, the jail roster, and custody locators can show different pieces of the same event.

For a person who no longer appears on the jail roster, first ask whether they were released, transferred, or held on another agency's detainer. Sentenced state prisoners move to ODOC. Federal prisoners move to BOP or federal contract custody. Immigration detainees at Diamondback should be searched through ICE rather than the Blaine County Jail roster.
