Bonneville Transfer Versus Release
Bonneville County Jail is a neighboring county jail named by Bingham County Detention as a related receiving facility. That fact is important because a Bingham roster disappearance may reflect transport. The person remains in custody after a jail-to-jail move. Do not describe the Bingham departure time as a community release time, and do not assume that the receiving jail’s later status explains the original court authority.
Ask Bingham Detention whether the person was released or transported, the date and time of the custody change, and the destination agency. Then verify acceptance with Bonneville County Jail through its official county channels. If the receiving jail no longer shows the person, repeat the same question there: community release, transfer, or another lawful custody change. Each agency controls its own booking and custody record.
Confirm Bonneville Jail Custody
Begin with Bingham County Inmate Information at 208-782-3057. Booking is 208-782-3055, Command is 208-782-3076, and Records is 208-782-3082. Give the person’s full name, aliases if known, and an approximate booking period. Ask for the destination rather than merely asking whether the name remains on a live list.
Ask Bingham Detention whether transport to Bonneville occurred.
Use Bonneville County’s official jail contact or roster to confirm present custody.
If the person is absent, ask Bonneville whether release or another transfer followed.
Review iCourt for the bond, judgment, commitment, dismissal, or release order.
VINE can supplement this chain with a custody-change notice. It is a notification system, not the source of the sending jail’s exact gate or transport record. Likewise, the IDOC Resident/Client Search becomes relevant only if the record points to state custody or felony supervision.
Bonneville Transfer Record Fields
The Bingham budget assigns Detention responsibility for inmate booking and custody records and transport to and from other facilities. A records request should seek the full legal name, booking number, original booking date and time, custody-change date and time, disposition, destination agency, transport notation, releasing authority or order, charge numbers, and court case numbers. Those requested fields can show that the person left Bingham custody without calling the event a public release.
| Record item | What it can establish |
|---|---|
| Bingham custody disposition | Whether the sender marked release, transfer, or commitment |
| Destination agency | Whether Bonneville was the documented receiver |
| Bonneville booking record | Whether and when the receiving jail accepted custody |
| Court order | The legal action tied to the custody change |
No accessible Bingham source established a public archive duration or a 24-hour or 72-hour release view. The absence of an online card does not show that the internal record was erased. Request the durable custody record from each agency for the portion each created.
Bingham Records for Bonneville Transfers
The joint Blackfoot Police and Bingham Sheriff Evidence and Records unit accepts electronic submissions through NextRequest. The county form may be emailed to peckhardt@binghamid.gov, faxed to 208-785-4131, or mailed to 501 N. Maple #205, Blackfoot, ID 83221-1700. The form says a representative will contact the requester within three working days under Idaho Code § 74-103(1). That is a response point, not a promise that all records arrive then.
Ask for an estimate where a request may be large. The general county form and newer sheriff schedule describe copy costs differently after 100 pages. Redactions and exemptions can also apply. A concise date range, known booking number, and clear request for the destination agency can reduce ambiguity.
Bonneville Release Court Check
A Bingham case can explain why the person first left the local jail. Bingham Magistrate Court handles misdemeanors and felony preliminary proceedings. A felony may then continue in District Court, so both stages may need review. Search for the order that authorized bond, dismissal, sentencing, commitment, or release. The order supplies legal context, while the jail record supplies the actual custody movement.
Do not treat a negative portal search as proof that no transfer occurred. Idaho Court Administrative Rule 32 allows some records to be confidential. Name variation and a later district case can also affect results. Conversely, a court entry does not prove the person reached the street if a hold or transfer kept them confined.
After Bonneville Jail Release
If Bonneville confirms community release, ask for its date, time, disposition, and releasing authority through the receiving county’s official record process. If it confirms another transfer, follow the named agency. An IDOC commitment leads to the statewide Resident/Client Search, which can show status, facility, Released to Supervision, and Sentence Satisfaction Date when applicable. Released to Supervision is not the same as unconditional discharge.
For a Bingham court case, local supervision depends on the order. Bingham County Probation says it is not felony probation and parole and routes felony matters to state supervision. The wider Bingham County release search explains how jail, court, VINE, and IDOC sources fit together.
Bonneville Jail Contact Route
The research identifies Bonneville County Jail as a receiving facility but does not supply a verified address, phone number, release desk schedule, or visitor information. Those facts should not be guessed. Use the official Bonneville County government or sheriff directory to reach its jail and records office. Confirm current details directly because neighboring county practices are controlled by Bonneville, not Bingham.

This two-agency route avoids a common error. Bingham can document where its custody ended, while Bonneville documents what happened after acceptance. Neither record should be stretched beyond the event that agency recorded.
Bonneville Release Evidence Chain
A complete file often contains three time points. The Bingham booking record shows when local custody began and how it ended. The Bonneville receiving record shows when the neighboring jail accepted the person and what happened during its own custody period. The court record supplies the legal action tied to one or both moves. Put the events in date order rather than forcing one source to answer all three questions.
Keep copies of the agency response, case number, and the date each portal was checked. If two official sources disagree on a recent event, ask the office that created the event to resolve it. Live rosters can change as custody changes, while a records response is tied to a defined request. A name match alone is not enough when several people share a name.
The Bingham jail’s capacity and expansion history do not determine whether a given transfer occurred. Budgets document transport work and overcrowding, but they do not publish a person-level transfer list or annual release totals. For an individual inquiry, the booking number, destination, and receiving entry are the useful links. For aggregate information, request a defined date range and measure rather than estimating from a live roster.
