This is a private reference site, not a Quay County government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release a detainee, post bond, schedule visits, or pull an official booking record. Use the official contacts below for jail, sheriff, court, and prosecutor records.
Quay County Record Contacts
For a current county jail custody question, start with the Quay County Detention Center because no official county-hosted online roster or mugshot gallery was found. For arrest reports, booking records, or sheriff records, the Quay County Sheriff's Office can route records-custodian questions. Court charges after arrest are separate from jail custody records and should be checked through the court system.

Use the record type to choose the right path before calling or filing an Inspection of Public Records Act request.
- For someone in the county jail, use jail inmate records and the detention center phone line.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and ask the records custodian about IPRA release.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest, New Mexico Case Lookup, or the District Court.
- For the local facility page, use the Quay County Detention Center link in the footer.
- For a sentenced New Mexico prisoner or a person on probation or parole, use the New Mexico Corrections Department offender search, not the county jail.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator, U.S. Marshals contacts, or ICE Online Detainee Locator System as the custody type requires.
