Nez Perce Adult Detention Overview
Nez Perce County Adult Detention Center is located at 1150 Wall Street, Lewiston, ID 83501, and is operated by the Nez Perce County Sheriff's Office. It is included in the Lewis County facility map as a practical regional custody channel because the Lewis County Jail is listed as closed and because Nez Perce County publishes the strongest nearby official detention information located during the research pass. The inclusion is careful. It does not prove a standing Lewis County housing contract.
The official Adult Detention Center page says the facility houses people for criminal offenses. The page also says people entering the facility may be searched for contraband or weapons and may be subject to a body scanner. For Lewis County readers, the facility matters when the sheriff's office or court information points to an out-of-county hold.
Nez Perce Detention Population
The research did not locate a rated capacity figure for Nez Perce County Adult Detention Center on the opened official page. The Idaho Sheriffs' Association directory lists the facility, but the captured excerpt did not include its capacity line. For that reason, no capacity stat is invented here. The public source that matters most for current custody is the in-custody page and its PDF, followed by phone confirmation.
| Measure | Status | Source Note |
|---|---|---|
| Rated capacity | Not located in opened official source | Do not infer from private jail sites. |
| People held | Adults housed for criminal offenses | Official Adult Detention Center and In Custody pages. |
| Lewis County contract status | Not confirmed | No official contract document located. |
Look Up Nez Perce Inmates
The Nez Perce County In Custody page links an official PDF. The page says reports are updated Monday through Thursday, weekend and holiday reports are included on Monday reports, and the arrested/booked report covers a 24-hour period each day. It also warns that the database updates every 24 hours and that inmate status can only be confirmed in person or by phone.
- Confirm with Lewis County Sheriff's Office that the person may have been transferred or housed outside Lewis County.
- Open the Nez Perce County In Custody page and use the official PDF link.
- Search or inspect the PDF for the person's name and any local identifier shown.
- Call Nez Perce County Adult Detention Center at 208-799-3132 to confirm current status.
- Use iCourt for formal charges and bond entries once a case is filed.
The in-custody page screenshot shows the roster access point and its public limitations.
The page is useful for a lead, but current custody, release, and transfer details still require the detention phone line.
Nez Perce Detention Contact
Use the detention-center phone when the question is current status, housing, visit eligibility, mail, money, or whether a person is actually held there. For Lewis County records, still start with Lewis County unless Lewis County confirms the transfer or the case record points to Nez Perce custody.

Visit Nez Perce Detention
Nez Perce County publishes a remote-only family and friend visitation model. Users must visit inmatesales.com or use the app to set up an account. Detention staff do not arrange scheduling. The facility appears in Facility Search as "NEZ PERCE ID." This matters for Lewis County searches only after custody at Nez Perce has been confirmed.
| Visit Type | Schedule | Access | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Remote video visitation | 7 days a week, 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM | inmatesales.com or app | Facility search label is "NEZ PERCE ID." |
| Onsite family/friend visitation | Not available | n/a | Official page says onsite visitation is no longer facilitated. |
| Pastoral services | Limited | Contact facility | Voluntary services are limited to Pastoral only. |
Nez Perce Mail and Money
Nez Perce County changed mail routing effective November 1, 2025. The official page says mail received at other addresses after January 1, 2026 will be rejected. Personal mail, legal mail, and photos follow different rules. Use the inmate name and ID exactly, and include a return address.
| Service | Provider / Address | Rules |
|---|---|---|
| Personal mail | Inmate Name - Inmate ID; Nez Perce County Jail ID; PO Box 76550; Highland Heights, KY 41076 | Must be scan-compatible, no larger than 8.5 x 11, and no thicker than light card stock. |
| Legal mail | Inmate Name - Inmate ID; Nez Perce County Jail ID 1150 Wall Street; Lewiston, ID 83501 | Legal mail sent elsewhere is listed as return-to-sender. |
| Photos | Mailed as enclosure | Only enclosure allowed; up to 10 photos per package, printed on photo paper. |
| Online deposit | Smart Deposit | Requires inmate name, Name Number, facility name, and Idaho. |
| Phone deposit | 1-866-394-0490 | Major credit and debit cards accepted. |

Do not send funds until custody at this facility is confirmed, because Lewis County records may point to a different jail or to court release.
Nez Perce Detention Intake
The Adult Detention Center page says incoming people may be searched for contraband or weapons and may be subject to a body scanner. The In Custody page says the listed people are housed there for criminal offenses, juveniles are not included, and the database can lag due to 24-hour updates. These details are important because a recent Lewis County arrest may not be visible in the PDF immediately.
- In-custody PDF
- A public list published as a PDF rather than a searchable roster form.
- Name Number
- A local identifier used by Nez Perce for deposits through Smart Deposit.
- Phone confirmation
- The official way to verify current status when the public page may be delayed.
- Transfer
- Movement from one holding agency or jail to another facility.
Nez Perce Safety Reporting
The Nez Perce Adult Detention Center page includes PREA information. It states the center has zero tolerance for sexual abuse and harassment, will take measures to protect inmates, and will investigate allegations. Reports can be made to detention administration at 208-799-3139 by asking for a supervisor. Written, anonymous, and third-party reports are accepted, and an outside-agency anonymous report line is listed through the Latah County Sheriff's Office at 208-883-5705.
For Lewis County readers, PREA and safety reporting still follow the facility holding the person. If Lewis County confirms that a person is in Nez Perce custody, use Nez Perce detention administration for facility safety concerns. If a person is in another jail, IDOC, BOP, or ICE custody, use that agency's reporting process.
Lewis County Fallback Limits
Nez Perce County Adult Detention Center is not a Lewis County facility. Its page belongs in this site because Lewis County Jail is listed as closed and the Nez Perce facility has an official active roster path, but the caveat should stay visible. Use the Lewis County Sheriff's Office first for Lewis County arrests. Use Nez Perce information when the custody trail points there.
Note: A regional fallback is not proof of custody; confirm transfers with Lewis County and Nez Perce before acting.
