Macon County Jail Details

The Macon County Jail sits at 101 E. Washington Street in Macon, Missouri. It uses a two-story pod design that was built for vertical expansion. Six new cells are being added above the existing pods right now. This will bring capacity up by 14 to 16 beds.

Macon County Booking Records Law

Macon County jail roster records are public under Missouri's Sunshine Law in Chapter 610 of the Revised Statutes. Section 610.100 requires that the date, time, and location of any arrest be released to the public. The arrested person's name and the charges are also public. Mugshots are considered part of the arrest record. If no charges are filed within 30 days, the record may close. But as long as someone is booked into the Macon County jail with active charges, their data is open.

Paper copy requests go through the sheriff's office. Fees are capped at 10 cents per page under the Sunshine Law. Staff time gets billed at the average clerical rate. Online searches through VINE or third-party roster sites are free.

Data refreshes every night.

Missouri law under Chapter 221 governs how county jails operate. It sets rules for inmate care, facility standards, and record keeping. The sheriff is responsible for maintaining accurate jail roster records and making them available to the public under the Sunshine Law.
