Madison County Jail Overview
Madison County Jail is operated by the Madison County Sheriff's Office at the Madison County Sheriff's Office and Detention Center in Rexburg. For Teton County, it is the primary local detention facility because the Teton County Sheriff's jail information page states that all Teton County inmates are housed at Madison County Jail as of January 1, 2026. Teton County's Board of County Commissioners approved the adult detention agreement in February 2026 after the earlier Jefferson County arrangement ended in fall 2025.
The Madison County Detention page says the jail houses adults accused or convicted of crimes and provides services for Madison County and other agencies, including Teton County. That makes Madison County Jail a regional jail for Teton County custody needs, not a Teton-owned county jail. Teton County remains important for sheriff records, bonding questions, and local court routing, but Madison operates the daily detention functions.
Madison's official page describes a full local jail operation. Detention staff handle intake, searches, booking, fingerprinting, photographing, releases, court and medical escorts, visitation, exercise, mail inspection, commissary money, clothing exchange, feeding, jail records, inspections, incidents, and transports. Those functions are the basis for a Teton County inmate's jail stay after transport to Rexburg.
Madison County Jail Capacity
Current Madison County Jail capacity and current Teton inmate count were not published in the official Teton or Madison web pages inspected for the source research. The research found historical Vera county-level numbers for Teton County jail population accounting, but those figures are not Madison County Jail's building capacity. They should not be used as a Rexburg bed count.
The operational fact is still clear. Teton County has no operating county jail in the current official material, and Madison County Jail is the facility named for Teton inmates. Use capacity and count claims only when Madison County or another official source publishes them.
Madison County Jail Lookup Fallback
No public Madison County Jail roster form was captured on the inspected detention page, and no public Teton County roster form was located. The lookup path for a Teton County inmate therefore starts with official routing and direct facility contact, then moves to notification and state or federal systems when the person is no longer in local jail custody.
Lookup fallback: Call Madison County Jail at 208-372-5002 for current facility questions, call Teton County at 208-776-8223 for bonding questions, use Idaho VINELink for custody-notification fallback, and use IDOC only after a person enters state felony custody.
- Confirm that the case is a Teton County jail matter. The Teton Sheriff page identifies Madison County Jail as the current housing facility for Teton inmates.
- Call Madison County Jail for current custody, release, transfer, visitation, phone, or commissary questions. The jail operates the facility in Rexburg.
- Use Idaho VINELink for custody notifications when a roster is unavailable or when release status may change.
- Check IDOC Resident/Client Search if the person has been sentenced to Idaho felony custody or placed under IDOC supervision.
- Use BOP, ICE, or U.S. Marshals channels only when the custody issue is federal or immigration related.
For a broader local roster path, including records requests and court lookup, use the Teton County jail records coverage in Teton County jail inmate records. Madison County Jail is the facility that houses Teton inmates.
Madison County Jail Contact
Use the jail phone for facility-specific questions before travel, video visits, mail, deposits, property, or status checks. Use Teton County Sheriff's Office for Teton public-record requests and bonding questions because the arrest and bond issue may remain tied to the Teton case even when the person is housed in Rexburg.

Madison County Jail Visitation
Madison County Jail publishes video visitation through Telmate and GettingOut. The facility has two video stations at the jail, and friends or family may also visit from a personal computer, tablet, or cell phone. The inspected official page did not publish a full dress-code, ID, child-visitor, or holiday rule list, so confirm current requirements before paying for a visit or traveling to Rexburg.
The Madison detention page is the source for the published video-visitation schedule. Use it as the lead source, then confirm with the jail because lockdowns, court transports, staff needs, weather, or vendor outages can change access.
The official Madison page also confirms Teton County as an outside agency served by the jail, which is why the Rexburg visitation schedule applies to Teton County inmates housed there.
| Visit Type | Schedule or Access | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Facility video station | Monday-Friday 9:00am-11:00am and 1:00pm-5:00pm | Two stations are available at Madison County Jail. |
| Wednesday evening video | Wednesday 7:00pm-9:00pm | Published evening block through Telmate video visitation. |
| Saturday video | Saturday 9:00am-11:00am and 1:00pm-3:00pm | Published weekend blocks. |
| Remote video | Schedule through GettingOut | Uses a computer, tablet, or cell phone; vendor fees may apply. |
Madison County Jail Phone Money
Madison County Jail uses Telmate and GettingOut for inmate communication and deposits. The official phone-services page describes collect calls, prepaid accounts, inmate debit calls purchased through commissary, voicemail, online deposits, phone deposits, and kiosk deposits. The jail page also says detention staff receive commissary money and inspect mail.
The Madison inmate telephone services page explains the local phone and deposit options for the jail. It is the source for the communication table in this section.
GettingOut and Telmate services are not court bond payments. Teton bond questions should still be directed to the Teton County Sheriff's bonding phone.
| Service | Provider or Detail | Important Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Phone calls | Telmate/GettingOut collect, prepaid, and inmate debit options | Account setup or funds may be required. |
| Video visits | GettingOut/Telmate video visitation | Facility and remote visits depend on schedule and vendor access. |
| Voicemail | Up to 3 minutes by calling 1-866-516-0115 | Madison research lists a $1.25 voicemail charge. |
| Deposits | Online through Telmate/GettingOut, by phone at 1-866-516-0115, or facility kiosk | Deposits are for inmate communication or commissary, not automatically bond. |
| Use the facility address and call to confirm format | Full mail-address rules were not published in the inspected page. |
Madison County Jail Booking Intake
Booking at Madison County Jail is the jail intake stage for Teton County inmates after local arrest and transport. Madison's published duties include intake of new inmates, searching, booking, fingerprinting, photographing, releases, court and medical escorts, visitation and exercise escorts, mail inspection, commissary money, clothing exchange, feeding, jail records, inspections, incidents, and transports. That confirms booking photos are created during intake, even though no official online mugshot gallery was found.
A Teton County jail arrest can involve more than one office. Teton County may create the incident or arrest report. Madison County Jail may create the jail intake and custody record. Idaho iCourt may later show formal charges after the prosecutor files the case. That is why a custody question, a report request, a booking-photo request, and a court-record search may point to different official channels.
For booking photos, the Teton records request form includes a photograph checkbox. The mugshot-specific route and public-record limits are covered in Teton County jail mugshots.
Madison County Jail Programs PREA
Madison County's detention page lists several service contacts rather than a broad program catalog. Detention staff work with defense attorneys, mental-health counselors, AA counselors, local clergy, and community members who offer services to the facility. The same page references medical escorts, exercise, clothing exchange, feeding, mail inspection, and jail records work.
PREA is the Prison Rape Elimination Act. Madison's detention page states zero tolerance for rape and sexual activity. Reports can be made by calling 208-372-5002 and asking for a jail supervisor. The page says anonymity will be protected and all reported incidents will be investigated. For urgent medical or mental-health concerns, contact the facility directly rather than waiting on a records request.
Note: Confirm custody, visitation, and vendor access with Madison County Jail before travel or payment.
Directions to Madison County Jail
Madison County Jail is in downtown Rexburg at 145 E Main St. Visitors starting in Driggs, Victor, or other Teton County locations should not drive to the Teton County Law Enforcement Center expecting a jail visit.
