Which system is holding them?

There is no single search that covers everyone in Banner County. Match the situation to the right official locator — most families start with the first one.

If the arrest was recent

Start with the county jail

A recent arrest usually means a county jail run by the local sheriff, not a state prison. Search the statewide custody locator or the arresting county’s jail roster; if the booking is only a few hours old, call the jail’s booking desk.

If they were sentenced to prison

Use the state prison locator

Once a person is sentenced, they move from the county jail into the Nebraska Department of Corrections. Search the state inmate locator by name or ID — a county jail roster will not show a sentenced prisoner.

If the charge is federal

Search the Federal Bureau of Prisons

A federal charge means federal custody — a separate system from any Nebraska county or state facility. Search the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator by name or register number.
