When someone you care about gets locked up, it's tough to figure out all the ins and outs of jail life. From sending mail to visiting, there are a lot of things to sort out. And getting info about the arrest? Not always easy. That's where this webpage comes in handy. It's here to help you get a handle on how things work here so that you can stay connected and support your loved one behind bars.
The Marathon Co Jail is a detention center located at 500 Forest St Wausau, WI which is operated locally by the Marathon 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. Marathon County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Wausau 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 jail, a modern facility that opened in 1988, has undergone significant renovations, including a 120-bed addition completed in 2000. It currently has a capacity of 279 beds. In addition to the jail, the Adult Detention division manages the Electronic Monitoring Program, a jail diversion initiative that electronically monitors minimum-risk inmates under in-home detention. Another sub-program of Adult Detention is the Huber Program, which allows sentenced inmates to leave the facility for work release, education, and job search. Marathon County inmates participating in the Huber Program may be outside the facility for up to 12 hours per day, six days per week.
The Secure Detention Center, located within the Marathon County Juvenile Facility, provides a secure placement for juveniles aged 10-17 years old, including both boys and girls. This facility, similar to the adult jail, admits juveniles primarily for criminal activity and can house up to 20 children. In contrast, the Juvenile Shelter Home, also located within the Marathon County Juvenile Facility, offers a non-secure placement for juveniles. This means that while there are rules to follow in the structured setting, the children are not locked in and have some freedom. The Shelter Home typically admits children aged 10-17 years old for reasons such as abuse and neglect, runaway behavior, being uncontrollable, criminal activity, and awaiting placement in a foster home, group home, or residential treatment center. It can currently house up to 8 children, including both boys and girls.
