I can't check whether a specific person is in custody, and I'd rather not run a search on a named individual. Jail status is handled by the agency that holds the person, and it changes daily.
To check it yourself:
- Clark County Sheriff's Office jail roster: the sheriff's inmate search is public and lists people currently booked into the Clark County jail in Vancouver, WA. Search by last name and first name, and try spelling variations.
- Washington Department of Corrections: if the person may have been sentenced to state prison, search DOC's offender locator.
- Clark County Superior Court case search: this shows charges and court dates for pending cases.
If you're worried about someone's safety or can't reach them, call the Clark County Sheriff's non-emergency line and ask whether they're in custody.
