This is a private reference site, not a Newton County government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release anyone, post bond, pull official booking records, change a court date, or answer for the Newton County Sheriff's Office, Newton County Jail, Missouri DOC, BOP, ICE, or the courts.
Where to Ask Locally
For official Newton County jail and records questions, use the agency that maintains the record. Sheriff Matt Stewart's Newton County Sheriff's Office and the Newton County Jail are located at 208 W. Coler, Neosho, MO 64850, with Corrections Captain Jerry Hornback listed for the corrections division. The jail and booking line is 417-451-8311. The sheriff's office main number is 417-451-8300. The Records Clerk can be reached at 417-451-8300 ext. 8334, with records fax at 417-451-8352. Office hours are Monday-Friday, 8:00-5:00, closed weekends and holidays.
- For a person who may be held at the Newton County Jail, start with the jail line and the jail inmate records page because Newton County does not publish an official online roster.
- For booking photos or arrest-report photo questions, review jail roster mugshots and contact the Records Clerk about a Sunshine request when a record is not online.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use Missouri Case.net and the court records after a jail arrest page.
- For facility rules, address, visitation, mail, and commissary basics, use the Newton County Jail page.
- For a sentenced Missouri prisoner, use the Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Search rather than the county jail phone.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator because those systems are separate from Newton County custody.
