The Sheridan County Jail is operated and managed by the Sheridan County Sheriff’s Department. The Sheridan County Sheriff’s Department wants to promote a safe and humane housing facility for its inmates, staff, and the community they serve.

They are the agency that oversees the daily operation of the Sheridan County Jail. 129 people are currently working for this division. Major Steve Morris is responsible for the Detention and Court Services Bureau.

The Cook County Jail accepts inmates from surrounding municipalities and towns. Majority of the inmates that are already sentenced have sentences less than two years.

The facility is a medium-security facility. All inmates are entitled to having medical care (if needed), three meals a day, and personal hygiene care. Many inmates in this facility have a sentence of 2 years and less. However, the Sheridan County Jail does not only hold those with a sentence, but they also hold inmates who are awaiting trial, or those who could not post bond either.
