Official Lincoln County Contacts

Lincoln County Busted Mugshots is a private reference resource, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, authorize a release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the public office that owns the record for those actions.

Jail and Sheriff Records

The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office and its Support Services / Records unit handle the county jail, current-custody questions, and records requests. The Lincoln County Jail is at 251 W Olive Street, Newport, OR 97365, and its listed main/jail line is 541-265-4277. For current custody, start with the county's Who is in Custody page, then confirm a fast-changing situation directly with the jail.

These routes distinguish custody, police records, court outcomes, and other systems that use different information.

  • Use the county records reference for the roster, request process, custody alerts, and official lookup sequence.
  • For a possible local warrant or a safety tip, use the Wanted Fugitives page's court and LCSO contact routes. LCSO's non-emergency dispatch is 541-265-0777, and the tip line is 541-265-0669.
  • For a filed case, hearing, or disposition, contact the Lincoln County Circuit Court Criminal Department at 541-265-4236, option 4, or use OJD's case-record resources.
  • For a sentenced Oregon prisoner or custody-status notification, use VISOR and the ODOC offender-search route.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator, which are separate from Lincoln County Jail.
