Thurston County Inmate Population is a private reference site. It is not the sheriff's office, jail, court, or corrections department, and it cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, accept money, schedule visits, or pull official booking records for you.
Where to Ask for Records
For local jail questions, the official contact point is the Thurston County Sheriff's Office, which operates the Thurston County Law Enforcement Center / Thurston County Jail. The county lists Sheriff Russell Briggs and the following contact details:

The courthouse is at 106 S 5th St, Pender, NE 68047. Published courthouse hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday except holidays. Jail lobby or visitation hours were not located in the public research, so call the sheriff's office before visiting the Law Enforcement Center.
- For someone possibly held in the county jail, start with jail inmate records and then contact the sheriff's office because no official Thurston County online jail roster was located.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and ask the sheriff's office whether a releasable booking photo exists.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and search Nebraska court case systems such as JUSTICE.
- For facility-specific details, see the Thurston County Law Enforcement Center / Thurston County Jail page.
- For a sentenced Nebraska state prisoner, search the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services locator instead of the county jail.
- For custody alerts, use the Nebraska Victims of Crime Alert Portal, known as NEVCAP, at nevcap.nebraska.gov/offender/search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Bureau of Prisons, U.S. Marshals Service, or ICE locator path that matches the agency holding the person.
