Commissary

Incarcerated inmates have access to commissary items such as e-cigs, phone cards etc. Money or money orders can be dropped off at the Detention Center at any time. Funds can be applied to an inmates account in a similar way over the phone. You must call (573) 897-5750 and leave the following information:

             Full Name

             Address

             Card Type

             Card Number

             Expiration Date

             3-Digit Security Code

             Phone Number

Failure to provide all the above information will prevent the transaction from being completed. All information is destroyed immediately after the transaction is verified complete. Processing fees do apply and they vary depending on the deposit amount. These are automatically generated by the POS system. You will be immediately notified if your card is declined.

Phone Services

The Osage County Detention Center uses Combined Public Communications as our phone service system. To access the phones, inmates may call collect, purchase a phone card ($10 each) or have funds placed on a phone account using "www.inmatesales.com" or calling 1-877-998-5678. All calls are $0 .20 per minute (international calls start at $1.00 per minute and varies per country.) Attorney calls are not recorded! If the individual incarcerated has a private attorney, please notify the facility so we may set these contact numbers up accordingly. Each inmate automatically has the Public Defender's Office set to "do not record." 

Chirping Devices

It is true; the Osage County Detention Center now offers the ability to text in jail. These devices are also provided through Combined Public Communications. They cost $4 a month to use and .10 cents for each text message sent AND received. No photos will come through on these devices, yet it will charge the inmate if attempted. Inmates using these devices must sign an agreement form and could be held liable for the device if found damaged or destroyed.  Each device is valued at $200 by CPC. Funds for Chirping accounts can also be set up by visiting "www.inmatesales.com" or calling 1-877-998-5678.

Court Security

The Osage County Detention Center is also responsible for providing Court Security and Bailiff services to the Judicial Officials operating within the Osage County Court House. Anything not pertaining to your current court case or your general visit to the court house should be left in your vehicle.  Cell phones, cameras and other recording and transmission devices are NOT allowed in the Osage County Courtroom. This Rule only applies to the Osage County Courtroom not the entire Courthouse.   See attached Local Court Rule No. 13. If you have an impending court date, again, please leave your phone and unnecessary items in your vehicle. If you have prior approval from a judge to bring your cell phone, camera or other recording device into the courtroom, you will need to present that paperwork upon entering the courthouse.  

If you have any questions about Local Court Rule No. 13, you may contact the Osage County Circuit Clerk's Office at 573-897-3114. Your cooperation is appreciated.
