Check Blaine County Detention Releases

Blaine Detention Release Paths

The Blaine County Detention Center is Blaine County’s jail, treated as a regional facility here because it accepts people from other jurisdictions. Its official description also says it holds people awaiting transfer to IDOC. That makes Blaine a credible place to check after a Camas arrest. It does not establish a current Camas housing contract or prove a named person was booked there.

A Blaine release can mean community release on bond or court order, completion of a local sentence, movement tied to work release, delivery to an agency holding a detainer, or transfer to IDOC after commitment. “Released by Blaine” describes the end of Blaine custody. It does not always mean the person walked into the community. Obtain the recorded release type and destination before describing the outcome.

Confirm Blaine Detention Releases

Call Camas Sheriff first for a Camas County case. If the sheriff confirms Blaine placement, use Blaine’s current system and records office together. A live tool answers a narrow present-status question; the completed custody history answers the release question.

1. Collect the full name, aliases, birth year, Camas case number, arrest date, and booking number if known.
2. Ask Camas Sheriff whether Blaine accepted the person and whether Camas has a transport or transfer notice.
3. Check the official Blaine Recent Arrests and linked current roster.
4. Search Idaho VINE, matching the supplying agency, identity details, status, and update time.
5. Ask Blaine for the completed release date and time, release code, court or bond authority, holds, and receiving agency.
6. Read the Camas iCourt docket for the legal order, then follow any transfer through IDOC or another custodian.

A matched current entry supports reported custody at Blaine at the displayed time. An absent entry does not establish release. It may reflect transfer, list maintenance, a correction, restricted data, or a release that still needs an exact record.

Blaine Detention Records Contact

The detention center is the likely custodian of its own booking ledger, release timestamp, hold result, transfer destination, and any booking image it created. Request existing items by name and date range. Ask for the code legend if the release reason is abbreviated, and ask whether “release date” is a scheduled field or a completed-event timestamp.

The Camas court clerk remains custodian of the Camas order. A bond, dismissal, credit-for-time-served, probation, or commitment entry can explain authority, but the jail must receive and process it. Request both sources when the exact physical exit matters. The Camas County release search and records page explains how to reconcile those dates.

Inside Blaine Detention Center

The Blaine facility is 36,000 square feet and has 90 beds. Its documented allocation includes 66 general beds, 20 segregated work-release beds, and four juvenile holding beds. Capacity figures describe the facility, not the number of Camas County detainees or current occupants.

The official Blaine detention overview shows the facility information used for this conditional Camas housing check.

The image identifies the facility, but it cannot confirm that a particular Camas defendant was held or released there. Individual placement still comes from Camas and Blaine records.

Blaine Release Time Is Variable

The official Blaine inmate handbook states that release time varies with the circumstances, release type, and schedule. A court order must be forwarded and processed. Other charges and holds must also be checked. No standard release hour should be promised.

A hold can lead to transport directly to the requesting agency. The handbook says family and friends are not given that transport timing. In that event, Blaine’s custody ends but confinement continues elsewhere. Ask for the receiving agency in the release record and use its locator or records office next.

Blaine Bond Release Records

Blaine’s handbook distinguishes full cash bond from a surety bond posted through a bondsman. A cash-only order must be honored as written. The jail describes an administrative bonding fee of $10 per charge before arraignment or $10 per case after arraignment. The bond ledger and jail release record should show the transaction that applied to the booking.

Bond does not dismiss a Camas case. It allows pretrial custody to end while the case continues. The Camas docket supplies later legal action, and the jail’s timestamp supplies the completed exit. A person may remain held if another case has separate terms or another agency has lodged a detainer.

Blaine Arraignment and Processing

The handbook says new arrests generally receive arraignment within 24 hours, excluding weekends and holidays, often through jail video. Arraignment is a court appearance, not a release promise. It may produce bond terms, a continued hold, or another order, and staff processing follows.

For a Camas case, make sure the docket belongs to Camas County even though the video appearance occurs from Blaine. The local court remains the legal source. Blaine remains the physical source for custody status. Confusing those roles can turn an order time into a false release time.

Blaine Jail Sentence Credits

For certain Blaine misdemeanor sentences of at least 30 consecutive days, the handbook describes five days of reduction per 30 days under Idaho Code §20-621. It also describes a written request after half the sentence has been served and lists exclusions. The policy wording refers to a Blaine magistrate sentence.

Do not apply that calculation automatically to a Camas judgment served at Blaine. Ask the Camas clerk for the judgment and custody credit, then ask Blaine how its staff calculated the particular booking. A scheduled result can change due to other cases, holds, amended orders, or an ineligible sentence arrangement. The completed custody timestamp remains the release evidence.

Blaine Costs After Release

The handbook states that sentenced people may be billed $25 for each day of confinement, capped at $500 per case. It also lists a $10 charge for an unreturned handbook. These obligations may remain after release. They should be described as Blaine account obligations, not as universal Camas court costs or conditions at Gooding.

Billing does not itself establish the release type or the current case status. Request the account record and keep it separate from court fines, restitution, and the physical release entry.

Blaine Release Record Fields

A precise request names the records needed. Seek the booking number, booking date and time, identity fields, charges, bond disposition, court authority, release date and time, release code, holds, transfer destination, receiving agency, and booking photograph. One booking may cover several cases, so one release order may not clear every hold.

If staff limit telephone details, ask which office accepts the written request. Preserve the request, acknowledgment, extension, response, and attachments so the source trail remains clear.

Blaine Transfers to IDOC

The facility accepts people awaiting IDOC transfer. A Camas court commitment does not make the person appear instantly in a state institution. Blaine may continue physical custody while transport and state intake are arranged. During that interval, the Camas docket may show commitment while the Blaine roster still shows custody.

After IDOC accepts the person, use the state Resident/Client Search. “In custody” means state custody, “In community” can reflect parole or IDOC probation, and “Discharged” marks sentence satisfaction in the public result. A transfer from Blaine to IDOC is not a community release and should never be reported as one.

No Blaine Release Feed

Blaine offers Recent Arrests and a current roster gateway, but the reviewed official sources do not present a separately labeled 24-hour or 72-hour released list. No official update cadence or post-release retention period was published. The current display must not be converted into a release archive by inference.

The roster gateway is useful in one direction: a correctly matched current entry supports reported custody at Blaine. Removal is ambiguous. For a defined release interval, ask for all existing release records in the exact start and end times, including the release type and receiving agency. Use a name-specific request when the goal is one person.
