Lincoln County — I’m excited to announce that I’ve completely rebuilt and launched the new Lincoln County Jail Roster right here on Boiler Bay Beacon at https://boilerbaybeacon.com/jail-roster/.

The previous version was clunky and inefficient. This new one I built from the ground up is far superior. It loads quickly, works smoothly, and delivers the powerful features our readers need for real transparency in Lincoln County.

As of today (Friday, July 17, 2026, updated at 9:21 AM from a source run at 8:54 AM), the roster shows 117 inmates at the Lincoln County Jail: 94 males and 23 females. That includes 17 new bookings in the last three days, 19 booked this week, and 48 with bail set. Newest bookings appear first by default.

I focused on making this tool practical and user-friendly. Here are the standout features:

• Smart Search: Type a name, charge, attorney, arresting agency, or any keyword and get instant results.
• Powerful Filters & Sorting:
  • Sort or filter by most charges to spotlight inmates facing multiple counts.
  • Sort by highest bail for quick views of significant cases.
  • Easy toggles for new arrivals, gender, and more.
• One-Click Clear: Reset everything instantly to see the full list.
• Rich Inmate Details: Every listing includes jail ID, days in custody, full charges (with expanders for multi-count cases), disposition, bail amount, booking date, attorney, arresting agency, release date if available, SID, and “Look up” links. There’s also a standard disclaimer reminding everyone to verify identities, as external searches can return unrelated matches.
• Image Search: Integrated mugshot and visual lookup support where available.
• News Search Ties: Contextual connections to related coverage for deeper context.
• At-a-Glance Stats: Total inmates, gender breakdown, new bookings, weekly activity, and bail cases — all right at the top.

This roster pulls from public records to help families, victims, researchers, and our community stay informed. As always, remember that being listed does not mean guilt. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty in court.

I built this because strong local journalism means making public records accessible and usable. No more frustration with slow or limited tools. This one just works.
