This is a private reference site, not the Storey County Sheriff's Office, the jail, a court, or a records counter. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release a person, post bond, or obtain an official booking record for you. Use the official offices and systems below for those actions.

- For a person who may be in the county jail, use jail inmate records and call Detention at 775-847-0929.
- For booking-photo questions, use jail roster mugshots; no official Storey County online mugshot gallery was located.
- For charges and court events after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest.
- For the local jail facility, review the Storey County Detention Center page.
- For a sentenced Nevada state prisoner, use the NDOC locator at https://ofdsearch.doc.nv.gov/.
- For custody notices, use Nevada S.A.V.E. at https://save.nv.gov/; for federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
For Sheriff's Office case reports, county FAQ material says to contact the Sheriff's Office first at 775-847-0959 to confirm the office handled the case. The FAQ limits release to closed case reports, lists a $1 per page copy fee, and says written requests should include a check payable to the Storey County Sheriff's Office. For broader county public-records requests, identify an existing record and route the request to the correct department; county materials state a five-business-day response period under Nevada public-records procedures.
