The Flathead County Sheriff’s Office online jail roster has been updated to include photos of the inmates and other information.
The new website was announced in a Facebook post earlier this week and is a big upgrade from the former website. The page separates individuals into recent releases, recent bookings and current inmates.
According to Flathead County Sheriff Brian Heino, the format of the new website is much easier to read.
On the roster, one can now find an image, the person’s name and age, date they were booked, total bail and upcoming court dates, in addition to what they were sentenced for and any associated fines, dismissals and other pertinent information.
The website will be updated frequently and a message on the home page reminds the public, “all individuals displayed on the website are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. The associate charge is for reference only and may change at any time.”
As of Thursday, the website listed 93 current inmates, 51 recent releases and four recent bookings.
