No Official Mugshot Gallery Located
Official Osage County sources did not publish an online jail roster, recent-bookings gallery, or mugshot gallery during research. That means there is no verified county web page where the public can search a current inmate profile and view a booking photo. The Osage County Sheriff's Office operates the Law Enforcement Center / Osage County Jail, and its Corrections page supplies jail, VINE, video visitation, mail, item, and bond information, but not a public mugshot feed.
The correct official route is the Sheriff's Records process. The Records page lists normal records-copy hours as Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., identifies Bonnie Feliciano as the Records contact, and publishes KORA costs. Requests should be framed as requests for existing, publicly releasable records, not as requests for staff to create a new summary or certify a person's criminal history.
How to Find or Request a Booking Photo
There is no official Osage County roster photo button to start from, so the practical process is a records request backed by enough identifiers to help staff locate the right booking. If the person is currently in custody, confirm custody first. If the person has already been charged in court, a case number can help connect the jail and court records, but the court case itself is not a mugshot source.
- Call the Osage County Jail at 785-828-4991 to confirm whether the person is or was in local jail custody and whether the request should be directed to Records.
- Contact Records during Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. at the Sheriff's Office, 131 W 14th Street, Lyndon, KS 66451, or use the county's records request process.
- Identify the person by full name, date of birth or age if known, approximate arrest or booking date, and case number if one exists.
- Ask for any publicly releasable booking photograph and related arrest-sheet or register-of-persons-charged material. Use that wording because Kansas law may allow the agency to withhold mug shots or standard arrest reports.
- Ask for costs before processing. The local fee schedule includes photo CD and picture-copy items, but a cost item does not mean a photo must be released.
- If the person is no longer in county custody, check Kansas VINE for custody notification, Kansas Case Search for filed charges, and KASPER only if the person was sentenced to KDOC custody or supervision.
Photo and Request Field Inventory
No official Osage County sample inmate profile was located, so the fields below are request and verification fields rather than confirmed online roster fields. They help separate a booking-photo request from a broader arrest report request, which matters because local and state rules treat some law-enforcement records differently.
| Field or Item | How It Applies to a Photo Request |
|---|---|
| Booking photograph | Ask for any publicly releasable booking photo tied to a specific arrest or booking. Do not assume release is mandatory. |
| Full name and identifiers | Provide name, date of birth or age, and spelling variants to avoid matching the wrong person. |
| Approximate booking date | Helps Records locate the relevant jail event, especially if there is no public online roster. |
| Case number | Useful if charges were filed and a Kansas Case Search entry exists, but it is not a substitute for the jail booking record. |
| Register of Persons Charged / arrest sheet | Osage County identifies this arrest-sheet material as public information, with no juvenile records released. |
| Kansas offense report front page | Local policy says page one is open public record, while sensitive details such as Social Security and driver's license numbers are removed. |
| Juvenile status | Osage County policy says no juvenile records are released. |
Kansas Mugshot Law and KORA Limits
Kansas law has a specific nuance for mugshots. The Kansas Attorney General's KORA FAQ says jail rosters and police blotters are open to the public, but mug shots or standard arrest reports may be discretionarily closed under K.S.A. 45-221 and are not required to be open. In practical terms, an Osage County jail roster entry or arrest-sheet information may be treated differently from a booking photo.
Kansas mugshot-law callout: Jail rosters and police blotters are generally open under the Attorney General's KORA guidance. Mug shots and standard arrest reports fall into a category that may be closed at agency discretion under K.S.A. 45-221(a), so a request can be redacted or denied even when some booking information is public.
Local Osage County policy adds another layer. Kansas Arrest Reports are not public record under the Sheriff's Records page, while the Register of Persons Charged, described as an arrest sheet, is public information. The same local policy says no juvenile records are released, no DUI results are released by the agency, autopsy reports are not released by the sheriff's agency, and some materials require proper release by court order or subpoena.
What Is and Is Not Public
What is public: Osage County identifies the Register of Persons Charged, or arrest sheet, as public information, and Kansas AG guidance treats jail rosters and police blotters as open. Page one of a Kansas offense report is also described locally as open public record, subject to removals and limits.
What is not guaranteed: A booking mugshot, standard arrest report, juvenile record, DUI result, autopsy report, or exempt investigative material may be withheld, redacted, or require a court order, subpoena, or other proper release.
The fee schedule should be read as a copying schedule, not as a guarantee of access. Black-and-white copies are $0.25 per page, color copies are $1 per page, photo CDs are $5 with up to five days allowed, DVDs are $15 with up to five days allowed, and pictures are $1 per page.
Records Contact and Photo Fees
Use the Sheriff's Records process for a photo request. The public address for the Sheriff's Office and jail is 131 W 14th Street, Lyndon, KS 66451. The jail number is 785-828-4991, dispatch is 785-828-3121, and administration is 785-828-4657. Records-copy hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

KASPER Photos Are Not County Mugshots
KASPER can show KDOC offender photos for people sentenced to Kansas custody or supervision. Those images are KDOC offender photos connected to prison or supervision records, not Osage County booking mugshots. KASPER also can show the person's name, KDOC registration number, physical description, conviction description, conviction county, case number, anticipated release date, current location, facility movements, supervision office, custody or supervision level, and certain disciplinary violations.
Use KASPER only when the person has moved into KDOC jurisdiction after sentencing or is under KDOC supervision. It should not be used to decide whether a newly arrested person is in Osage County Jail, whether a local bond is available, or whether the Sheriff's Office must release a county booking photo.
Federal and Immigration Photo Limits
The federal systems are separate from Osage County. The Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator covers federal inmates incarcerated from 1982 to present and can be searched by name or number. It does not operate as a county booking-photo gallery for Osage County arrests. Federal pretrial detainees may be managed by the U.S. Marshals Service and housed in contract facilities, so a person may not appear in BOP sentenced-inmate results.
The ICE Online Detainee Locator is also separate. It can be searched by A-number and country of birth, or by name, country of birth, and birth date. ICE's locator is not an Osage County jail roster and does not publish a local mugshot gallery.
Sealed, Expunged, or Incorrect Photo Records
If the issue is a sealed, expunged, dismissed, or incorrect record, the official route is through the record-holding agency and the court process, not a commercial removal request. Kansas Judicial Branch self-help materials explain record expungement, and KBI guidance says expunged arrests, prosecutions, convictions, and confinements are not released in public criminal-history checks. For the court side of an Osage County arrest, use court records after jail arrest to separate filed charges and disposition from the original booking event.
For a county booking-photo request, ask Records whether a photo exists, whether it is publicly releasable, whether any exemption applies, and whether a court order or subpoena is required. Do not rely on reposted copies or unofficial image indexes as proof of current custody, pending charges, or record status.
