Asotin County Justice Complex Overview
The Asotin County Justice Complex and Jail is operated by the Asotin County Sheriff's Office. The official jail page lists the facility at 2950 6th Ave, Clarkston, WA 99403, with jail phone 509-758-1668. It identifies Nate Uhlorn as Jail Commander and says the jail is staffed 24 hours per day by 1 Commander, 4 Sergeants, 1 Administrative Assistant, 20 Corrections Officers, and 4 Control Room Technicians.
The jail page says the facility houses adult offenders and pre-trial arrestees. It is the primary detention facility for Asotin County, the City of Asotin, and the City of Clarkston. It also offers bed space to WADOC for temporary housing of probation violators. No official source found a separate city jail, state prison, federal prison, or ICE detention facility inside Asotin County.
Asotin County Jail Capacity
The current county jail page lists a standard capacity of 144 inmates. Recent WASPC annual jail statistics report 47 facility beds for 2024 and a 47-bed updated design capacity for 2023, which likely reflects older or reporting-period capacity. The research instruction is to explain the discrepancy, not average the numbers. The live county page should be used for the current facility capacity, while annual WASPC rows remain important for historical trend and population data.
| Measure | Figure | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Current county-published capacity | 144 inmates | Asotin County jail page, inspected July 2026 |
| WASPC 2024 average daily population | 58.67 | WASPC 2024 workbook |
| WASPC 2024 average length of stay | 21 days | WASPC 2024 workbook |
| WASPC 2024 in-custody deaths | No | WASPC 2024 workbook |
Who Is Held at Asotin County Jail
The facility holds local adult custody. That includes pretrial arrestees, adult offenders, county inmates, City of Asotin inmates, City of Clarkston inmates, and temporary WADOC probation violators. The county medical-services RFP also describes the jail as housing male and female offenders. No juvenile detention role was located in official sources.
A person arrested in Clarkston may still be booked into the county jail because the Clarkston Police Department page does not publish a municipal jail or city roster. A person sentenced to state prison should be searched through WADOC after transfer. A person in federal sentenced custody should be searched through BOP, and immigration custody should be checked through ICE ODLS after transfer.

No official online roster was located for the Justice Complex. Current custody questions should go to the jail phone first. For booking, police, or arrest records that are not live custody questions, use the Sheriff's Records Department. For charges filed after booking, search Washington Courts or contact the court of record.

- Use WADOC, WA VINE, BOP, or ICE only when the person has moved into those separate systems.
The screenshot below comes from the official Asotin County jail page, which is the source for the current facility name, address, phone, capacity, vendor links, and visit approval note.
Use that county page for facility facts, but use the phone and records channels for inmate-specific facts because no public roster appears there.
Asotin County Jail Address and Contact
The jail information line is the direct current-custody channel. Sheriff's Records is a separate records channel for police reports, arrest reports, and related public records. The county research also lists older 5th Street jail references, but current pages should use the live 6th Ave Justice Complex address.

Visit Asotin County Jail Inmates
The jail page links visit booking to InmateSales and says first-time inmate visits require 24 to 48 hours for approval or denial. The county page does not publish a complete visit schedule, dress code, visitor ID rule, child-visitor rule, attorney-visit rule, or visitor parking instructions. Confirm those points with the jail or vendor before traveling.
| Item | Official detail | Instruction |
|---|---|---|
| Visit scheduling | InmateSales booking link from jail page | Vendor account may be required. |
| First-time approval | 24 to 48 hours | Do not assume same-day first visits. |
| Visit schedule | Not published on county jail page | Check InmateSales or call jail. |
| Visitor ID and dress code | Not published on county jail page | Confirm before arrival. |
| Visitor entrance | Not published on county jail page | Call if accessibility, parking, or screening details matter. |
Mail Phone and Money at Asotin Jail
Phone, video, and email account funding is linked through InmateSales. Commissary deposits are linked through JailATM. The jail page says funds can be transferred from commissary to phone account, but not from phone account back to commissary. A lobby kiosk is available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily for people who prefer not to pay online.
| Service | Provider or location | Official note |
|---|---|---|
| Phone account | InmateSales | Funds cover calls, video calls, and emails. |
| Video visits or calls | InmateSales | County links the same vendor for visit booking and communications. |
| Commissary deposit | JailATM | Linked from the county jail page. |
| Lobby kiosk | Jail lobby | 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily. |
| Mail format | Not published | Call before mailing books, photos, money orders, or other items. |
Asotin County Jail Programs
The jail page says medical, mental-health, and dental services are contracted. Life-skills, educational, and religious programs are offered through volunteer services. Inmates have a limited commissary program and a library. The correctional healthcare RFP adds that the county sought correctional healthcare, medication assisted treatment services, electronic medical records, licensed or certified personnel, and a written health care plan.
Community labor support is unusually specific in the local material. Jail labor supports the Asotin County Landfill, Courthouse, Fair Board, Litter Control, and Weed Control. State law also matters here: RCW 70.48.071 requires local adult correctional facilities to operate under standards that meet constitutional health, safety, welfare, and statutory requirements.
Asotin County Jail Court Links
Jail custody and court charges split after booking. District Court handles many misdemeanor, gross misdemeanor, DUI, driving while license suspended, domestic violence, assault, theft, and municipal matters. Bond hearings are listed Monday through Friday at 8:30 a.m. Superior Court handles felony and other superior matters, with Odyssey access or clerk requests for many records.
A jail release can also be affected by warrants, holds, or probation-violator status. The District Court criminal-cases page warns that failure to appear can lead a judge to issue a bench warrant. WADOC probation violator housing may apply at the jail, but WADOC's locator is the better search path once the person is in state DOC custody.
Note: Confirm custody, visit approval, and court timing with the jail, vendor, or court before traveling to Clarkston or Asotin.
Directions to Asotin County Jail
