Sevier County Quick Facts
Sevier County Sheriff's Office and Criminal Records
The Sevier County Sheriff's Office is the primary law enforcement agency for the county. The office and jail are both located at 835 East 300 North, Richfield, UT 84701. The main sheriff's phone is (435) 896-2600. The jail line is (435) 896-2660. The fax number is (435) 896-6081. Email contact for the Sheriff's Office is scsheriff@sevier.state.ut.us.
The Sheriff's Office employs 26 deputies including the Sheriff, providing 24-hour patrol coverage across the county's 1,900-plus square miles. The corrections division is managed by 21 corrections deputies who oversee the 146-bed detention facility. That facility operates at a medium security level and serves a broader region: it houses inmates for three counties in addition to Sevier County inmates, and it also houses individuals from the Utah Department of Corrections. This multi-county role makes the Sevier County Jail one of the larger regional detention operations in central Utah.
When a person is arrested and booked into the Sevier County facility, a criminal record is created. That record includes the person's name, booking number, charges, physical description, and booking date. Charges at booking are preliminary and do not represent a conviction. All booked individuals are presumed innocent until a court has made a final ruling.

Sevier County Jail and Inmate Records
The Sevier County Jail at 835 East 300 North Suite 300, Richfield, UT 84701 is a medium-security facility managed by the corrections division of the Sheriff's Office. The jail uses the TelMate Inmate Calling system for inmate phone communication. Inmates can make and receive calls through this platform, and family members can set up accounts to fund calls and maintain contact.
Mail sent to Sevier County inmates is picked up and delivered Tuesday through Saturday. All mail must include the inmate's full name and a return address on the envelope. Stamps and contraband are not permitted. There is no exception to the no-stamps rule, and mail that violates the policy will be returned or confiscated. Keep items simple: letters and approved publications are the safest mail choices.
Because Sevier County houses inmates for three other counties and for the Utah Department of Corrections, the jail population at any given time includes people from outside Sevier County. If you are searching for someone and the Sevier County Jail shows no result, they may be held at a different facility. Call the jail at (435) 896-2660 to confirm a person's location or check the VINE system.
Note: Historical inmate records can be requested in writing. Send a written request to: Sevier County Sheriff, Attention: Jail Records, 835 East 300 North, Richfield, UT 84701. Include the subject's full name and the approximate date of the booking or arrest.
VINE Inmate Tracking for Sevier County
The VINE system (Victim Information and Notification Everyday) provides free, around-the-clock custody tracking for Sevier County inmates. VINE allows users to search by the inmate's name or ID number and register to receive automatic alerts when custody status changes, such as a release, transfer, or court transport. This is especially useful in a multi-county housing situation like Sevier County, where an inmate's location may change without notice as beds shift between partner facilities.
Registration takes only a few minutes. Once registered, users receive notifications by phone, text, or email whenever a tracked inmate's status changes. The service is free and does not require any official standing or relationship to the inmate. VINE is a key tool for family members, attorneys, and victims of crime who need to stay informed about an offender's custody status in Sevier County or any other Utah facility.

Sevier County Warrant Records
Active warrants in Sevier County are public records and can be searched through the statewide tool at secure.utah.gov/warrants. This tool is updated regularly with warrant data from courts and law enforcement offices across the state. Warrant records include the subject's name, the type of warrant, the issuing court, the offense, and any bond amount set at the time of issuance.
Bench warrants arise when someone fails to appear for a scheduled court date. Arrest warrants result from a court finding of probable cause that a person committed a crime. Both types remain active until a judge resolves them or the subject is taken into custody. If you believe a warrant exists in your name from a Sevier County court, call the Sheriff's Office at (435) 896-2600 or speak with a local attorney before taking action.
Sevier County Emergency Services and Additional Resources
The Sevier County Sheriff's Office provides services that go well beyond arrests and jail management. The office employs five full-time EMTs and paramedics who provide medical coverage for the county. The search and rescue team handles all missions in the county's large and varied terrain, which includes mountain ranges, desert areas, and remote valleys that stretch across the county's 1,900-plus square miles. These teams are part of the same department that manages criminal records and jail operations.
Court security at both the 6th District Court and the Sevier County Justice Court is provided by Sheriff's Office staff. This means that deputies who testify in criminal cases and maintain criminal records are also responsible for keeping the courthouses safe during proceedings. The Sheriff's role in Sevier County spans patrol, corrections, emergency response, and court security all under one department.
