The Iosco Co Jail is a detention center located at 428 W Lake St Tawas City, MI which is operated locally by the Iosco County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Iosco County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Tawas City Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.
New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals.
The Iosco County Jail, a division of the Iosco County Sheriff’s Office, is situated on Tawas Bay and has been serving the community for over 50 years. With a rated capacity of 63 beds, the jail ensures optimal supervision and safety for its inmates. Under the leadership of Captain Scott Frank, the jail is managed by a team of four Corporals and nine Correction Officers who are dedicated to maintaining a secure and respectful environment. Harassment of inmates is strictly prohibited, emphasizing the institution's commitment to inmate welfare.
Upon arrival, inmates are read the "Contraband Statement," which warns that possession of illegal drugs, cell phones, or weapons after this reading will result in a 5-year felony charge, in addition to existing charges.
The staff provides limited information to family and friends, including confirmation of an inmate's lodging, bond or fine amounts necessary for release, and visitation days. Additional details must be obtained directly from the inmate to protect their privacy.
Books and magazines ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate.
Bonding for inmates can be posted at any time for local and in-state charges, including Friend of the Court bonds. Payments can be made via licensed Bonding Agents, cash, or credit card services through Government Payment EXP, either at the Sheriff’s Office or remotely. A $12.00 booking fee is also required.
Court-ordered fines and costs should be paid at the courthouse during business hours or at the Sheriff's Office Control Center after hours.
Telephones are available in each jail cell for outgoing calls only, with all calls being collect and recorded for security reasons. Pre-paid phone cards can be purchased at the Control Center for inmates with debts. Phones operate from 7 a.m. to midnight daily.
Permitted personal items include specific quantities of white underwear, undershirts, socks, thermal underwear (in winter), bras without under-wire, eyeglasses, and approved prescription medications.
Inmates have weekly out-of-cell activities and can participate in church services, Bible study, GED classes, AA programs, and the Sheriff’s work program, among others. Eligibility is required for program participation.
The jail’s commissary allows inmates to purchase items if they have funds in their trust accounts, with deliveries made on Fridays. Indigent inmates receive basic hygiene items, with costs deducted from their trust fund accounts.
Medical care is available 24/7, with a nurse on-site five days a week and a doctor visiting once a week. Inmates must submit a Medical Request Form for non-emergency medical attention.
Work release, a court-granted privilege authorized by the Sheriff, is not available to those with drug-related convictions or certain criminal histories. Inmates on work release must adhere to specific rules and pass drug tests, with a fee of $20.00 per day. Work release is limited to employment within Iosco County.
