If your friend or loved one may be incarcerated at a different jail you should check our Minnesota county jail guide: List of all jails in Minnesota

A mugshot, also called a intake photograph, is the photo that the police take when you get booked into jail. They will take one frontal photo and a side-view photo. Your full name and booking number will appear on the photos, and they will be kept on file at the jail.

Mugshots of Marshall County Jail inmates can be searched on the Marshall County Jail website, or you can see them in person at the Marshall County Jail. When you search for mugshots on the website you will have to put in the person’s first and last name, and a booking date, if you have it.

Are you trying to figure out what to do in order to get your mugshot erased from the Marshall County Jail site? This can be tricky, since the mugshot is public record. To get your mugshot taken down you will need to file a ‘Petition to Expunge’. What this means is that all of your arrest records would be sealed, and will not be accessible. It is difficult to do this, and you will most likely need the services of a lawyer.

Obviously, if you are incarcerated, your main thought is when and how to get out. After you’ve gone through the intake process, your bail is determined either through a preset bail schedule or a magistrate. If there is no bail set this can mean that you will either be free to go until your trial, or you are kept in jail until your court date.

If you do bail out of jail you will have to promise to show up for court, and in the meantime you will not be permitted to go out of town.

In most cases, inmates in the Marshall County Jail can earn an early release in exchange for good behavior if they respect the rules and act right while locked up.

If you do exhibit good behavior and the jail believes you can be trusted, you might be allowed to participate in work release. Either you will have to stay the jail every day when you’re finished at your job, or you might have the chance to move into a halfway house instead of living at the jail.

Bail is the amount of money that you will be required to pay to be released from jail until your court date. The amount you will be required to pay depends on how serious your charges are. You will have to pay to the courts 10 percent of the total that was determined so you can bail out of jail. If you don’t show up for court, the person that paid your bail won’t get their money back.

You must call the jail. If you’ve got the pertinent information, including name, address and date of birth, they will be able to let you know the bail amount. Also, you can find out how much their bail is online.

Having to bail someone out of jail is no fun, but most of the time, its really easy if you have the money. To start with, you need to know if their bail is a Cash Only Bond situation. If so, you will not be able to use a bail bondsman. They only accept cash at the jail, so you have to take cash – they can’t take checks. As soon as you’ve posted (paid) bond, the inmate will be released into your care. If the conditions of bail are not violated, you’ll get the bail money back.

If their bail has been set too high, or you can’t afford it, you should try to hire a bail bondsman. Bondsmen usually charge you a fee of 10-15% of the total amount of bail set, and usually with a minimum fee of $100. The amount you pay to the bondsman will not be returned to you and the bondsman only accepts cash. If the bail is exceptionally high, the bail bondsman may use your assets, such as home, property or cars, as collateral.

When you post bail, you will be discharged from jail. This process may take between 15 minutes to all day. In simple terms, the quicker bail is posted, the faster you will get out of jail. Also, how fast you get released can depend on whether or not you have a bond amount or if the magistrate must decide on the amount of bail to be set. For lesser charges, you will simply be booked and then released on your recognizance without having to pay bail. If you have served a sentence in jail and have a discharge date, you should plan to get released between 9am and noon.

If you have a, or if you need to begin your jail sentence, it is highly recommended that you follow the rules and turn yourself in willingly. For a warrant, report to the jail intake area, and tell the intake officer that you think there may be an outstanding warrant for your arrest. They will do a check to find out if there is an arrest warrant for you, and if so, you will be taken into custody. If you have a jail sentence to serve, go down to the jail at the exact time and date that the sentence order lists. Be sure that you don’t show up late. Just bring approved items with you, for example your driver’s license or photo ID, any prescription medication you might take, and a copy of the sentencing order.

To have visitors, you need to give each visitor’s name to the jail in advance. Your visitor’s names will be entered in the log as an approved visitor. Each visitor will be required to provide proof of identification. Anyone that arrives for visitation late or that is not on the visitation list will not be able to attend visitation.
Jail visitation policies frequently change, so you should check the official Marshall County Jail jail site before you go.

The only phone calls that inmates are allowed to make are made through a jail approved pre-paid phone account or phone card . Calls made in jail are typically more expensive than regular phone calls. Phone calls are restricted on when and how often you can use the phone, but inmates must keep in mind lots of people want to use the phone – so you have to share. If you break the rules and are disciplined, an inmate’s ability to use the phone could be reduced or eliminated completely, as part of the punishment.

The Marshall County Jail phone number is: 218-745-5411

All mall sent to inmates is required to be mailed using the actual US Postal Service. You must not use any other type of delivery.

Any mail gets opened and reviewed by the officers at the jail, and the mail will get sent back if the jail decides it is inappropriate.

You won’t get many phone calls in jail, so you would be wise to have a friend or family member locate a lawyer when you call them.

The Marshall County magistrate is the type of judge who presides on your case in court. Magistrates do different functions, such as setting bail, writing arrest warrants, and overseeing preliminary court hearings and detention proceedings.

A defendant’s pre-sentencing report is prepared with information about your background and as much detail about the defendant’s life and public history, which the magistrate judge will review when deciding on the sentence. Information, details, and character witnesses will be requested from the defendant, the defendant’s family, and in some circumstances the victim. Remember you are able to request to see your own copy of the pre-sentencing report before sentencing, so you get the chance to review it and correct any mistakes.

After you are convicted of a crime, you will be given a sentence for your crime. The presiding judge in your case will weigh several options when determining your sentence, ranging from community service and probation, to even incarceration in either jail (short term) or prison (long term). Depending on the severity of the crime, you will either be taken into custody, right there in court, or you might be given a date that you must report to jail to serve your sentence.

Life In Jail / What Its Like

Daily Life

Everyone knows that being incarcerated in the Marshall County jail is very scary, you will soon get accustomed to the routine that is set for you. Inmates get an alarm to wake up each morning at six in the morning, and then roll call. After roll call you will get breakfast. When you finish eating breakfast participate in the work program or other activity that you are assigned. This could be working in the kitchen, laundry, or some sort of manufacturing job. While this may seem tedious, it may help you when you leave jail, as you are gaining experience in a certain field of work. Other inmates go to school, while some take part in mandated treatment programs. After lunch, there will be another roll call, then back to work. Your evening will be spent either in your cell or a common room. During this time dinner is served and you will be expected to take a shower. After another roll call, it’s lights out. Even though you will be confined to your cell, there may be enough light to read or write letters. Then again, most inmates welcome lights out, and try to get as much sleep as they can.

Most people are frightened at the idea of jail because they don’t know what to expect. If you have spent any time in Marshall County Jail, your experiences would be welcomed, if it can help another person to deal with it.

Dress Code

When incarcerated, all inmates are expected to wear the Marshall County Jail uniform. This is normally a jumpsuit or scrubs. Of note to anyone visiting an inmate – you must be properly dressed. Any clothing considered inappropriate will not be permitted.

How To Send Money to an Inmate

You will have your own ‘bank account’ while in jail. This money is used to purchase items from the Commissary. Family and friends can deposit money into this account for you, and any money you earn while in prison will also be deposited into your account. Outside money can be paid in to your account via a money order, cash or check. If someone sends a check or money order, make sure that they write your inmate ID on it. The maximum amount you are allowed in your account is $290 per month.

The procedure to send money to jail inmates could change, so check the the Marshall County Jail website when you send any funds.


Commissary

The commissary is the jail store. You can purchase a number of things here, such as toiletries, snacks and writing supplies. Bear in mind that you will probably want to use the commissary daily, and any infractions will get that privilege taken away from you.

Inmate Medications

If you are on any type of prescription medication, you will be allowed to continue taking it while in jail. When you are first processed, you will be asked what medication you take. You will then be referred to the jail nurse or doctor who will be in charge of monitoring your health and prescribing your medication.

Meals

You will get three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. As expected, they are very basic, but healthy. A typical breakfast might be cereal, toast, coffee and fruit. Lunch might be spaghetti, salad, bread and milk. Dinner could be chicken casserole, rice, vegetables, dessert and milk. Contrary to popular belief, prison food has greatly improved over the years, and you might find that it’s not much different from what you would eat at home.

Pods / The Yard

The jail is designed in a ‘pod’ layout, with self-contained housing arranged around an outdoor yard. Each pod has a central control station and a common room, and the inmates take turns in using the yard. The jail is designed this way to keep certain inmates together, and others away from the general population.

Gangs

As with life in general, gangs are a part of prison life. Obviously it is best to avoid becoming a part of this environment as it will only lead to trouble. When you first enter prison, you might find yourself being ‘primed’ to join a gang, or worse, you might get their attention in a negative way. The best thing to do is keep your head down and don’t get involved.
