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 Meeker County Jail & Detention is a detention center located at 326 North Ramsey Litchfield, MN which is operated locally by the Meeker 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. Meeker County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Litchfield 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 Meeker County Detention Center provides for the safe, secure, and humane detention of offenders in Meeker County.
The Detention Center construction was completed in 1999. We are licensed to house 69 inmates. We house work release inmates as well as minimum, medium, and maximum inmates. The Detention Center employs 9 full-time and 6 part-time Correctional Officers, as well as a Jail Programmer and Jail Administrator. We have a Public Health Nurse that visits the center three times a week. We have volunteers who provide GED, AA/NA, and religious services from a number of churches, as well as visits to inmates from local clergy for consoling.
Pay to Stay is a fee that is charged for any time that an inmate does in jail once they are sentenced. Time that the person spent in jail prior to their sentencing will be added to any additional time the inmate is sentenced to.
The fee for Pay to Stay is $20 per day. Payment arrangements will be made before the inmate is released.
Sentenced inmates are released at approximately 8 a.m. on their outdate. They can be picked up at the Detention Center Entrance, Door A. Please be patient with our release process.
