Find Waukesha County Huber Inmates

Waukesha County Huber Facility

The Waukesha County Huber Facility is operated by the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department, led by Sheriff Eric J. Severson. The facility is a county work-release site for sentenced inmates with Huber privileges and approved release purposes. It is separate from the Waukesha County Jail, which handles the main county jail population, pretrial detainees, and standard county jail sentences.

Huber status is narrower than ordinary custody. A person must have court-approved Huber privileges, verified release needs, and compliance with county rules. The official Huber pages cover transfer requests, visitation, correspondence, allowed property, board payments, child and family care release, and education release. Capacity was not located in official Waukesha County sources, so no capacity number should be inferred for this facility.

Because Huber custody can include release to approved activity, a lookup result may require a little more interpretation than a simple jail cell location. The county's PDF can show a location or status label, and the research found electronic monitoring labels on the live list. That label does not mean the person is in a state prison, federal prison, or ordinary public jail housing unit.

Waukesha Huber Inmate Lookup

The official lookup starts on the county Current Inmate List page. That page links to the Waukesha County Correctional Facilities PDF, which the county says covers the County Jail Facility and Huber Facility and updates hourly. The PDF is not a database with name fields. It is a current list that can be searched with the browser or PDF viewer's find tool.

1. Open the current inmate list page and launch the PDF linked by Waukesha County.
2. Confirm the PDF date and list time before relying on the result.
3. Use the PDF search tool and search by last name first.
4. Read the location or status field. It may point to county jail custody, Huber-related custody, or electronic monitoring status.
5. If the person is not shown, call the Huber Facility or jail line, check WCCA for the case, and check DOC if a state prison sentence may have started.

The PDF does not publish mugshots, booking numbers, charge text, court dates, or bond terms. Formal charges and hearing dates belong in Wisconsin Circuit Court Access or Waukesha County court records. The Waukesha County jail inmate records page details the same PDF limits, while the Waukesha County inmate population hub explains the difference between the county list, DOC, VINELink, BOP, and ICE.

Waukesha Huber Facility Contact

Call the Huber Facility for Huber-specific questions, and use the public visitation appointment line only during the appointment window documented by the county. Records requests still run through the Sheriff's Records Division when a person needs releasable reports or custody-related records that are not in the public PDF. Court-ordered release privileges and sentence terms should be checked against the court record, not guessed from a roster label.

Waukesha Huber Transfer Rules

Huber transfer rules are strict and specific to the sentence. Waukesha County accepts transfer inmates from other jurisdictions only when the original sentencing court granted Huber privileges and allowed transfer to Waukesha County. The inmate must first report to the sentencing county jail, and that jail must request transfer to Waukesha County Huber staff. Transfer processing depends on available bed space.

Huber is not the same as bail, probation, or a casual work pass. The county's Huber rules also cover education release, child and family care release, treatment-related needs, board payments, wage assignments, and allowed property. A court may grant the privilege, but the county still applies program rules, verification, schedule limits, and bed-space limits.

Waukesha Huber Visitation

Huber visitation differs from the main jail. Public visits are appointment-only. The county says appointments are made by calling 262-896-8196 on Tuesdays from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and appointments are not taken from another number or outside that time. Visitors must arrive at least 15 minutes early, bring photo identification, and dress appropriately. Public video visits allow two visitors on the video unit, but children under 18 may not visit.

These limits are part of what makes the Huber page different from the main jail page. A person listed with a Huber or electronic monitoring status may have a sentence and release schedule that affects availability. A visit should not be planned from the roster alone.

Waukesha Huber Mail

Huber personal mail uses the same digital scanning model documented for Waukesha County correctional mail. The format includes the facility name and state, the inmate name and number, and the Phoenix, Maryland scanning address. Legal mail should not be sent to the scanning address. The county says legal mail sent there will be returned and not forwarded.

Huber financial rules are broader than commissary. Board and wage-assignment rules can apply depending on sentence length and work status. The county's Huber board rules address wage or benefit payments, advance board fees, payroll compliance, and debt consequences. Hygiene items generally must be purchased through vending or commissary rather than brought without approval.

Huber Release Limits

Approved release from the Waukesha County Huber Facility is controlled by purpose and schedule. Employment must be verified and located in Waukesha County for transfer inmates. Education release requires a school schedule, and non-credit classes are excluded from the documented education-release path. Child and family care release requires documentation and has its own rules, including a landline requirement in the research source.

The core time limits are important: no more than 12 hours out of the facility in one day including travel, and no more than six days in a row. These limits are not the same as a court hearing time, a bond condition, or a DOC supervision rule. They are Huber program controls applied by the county to eligible sentenced inmates.

Huber privilege

Court-approved work-release style authority under Wisconsin jail law and local program rules.

Electronic monitoring

A monitored custody status outside standard housing, limited by court and county approval.

Huber Records and Courts

The Huber roster route shows current correctional status, but it does not replace the court file. Sentencing terms, Huber privileges, transfer permission, and electronic monitoring authority come from court action and county program approval. If a person has been sentenced to state prison instead of county jail or Huber, the Wisconsin DOC Offender Locator is the correct statewide tool after DOC transfer.

The Sheriff's Records Division remains the local records channel for releasable sheriff records. Requests can be made in person at 515 W. Moreland Blvd., by mail to Waukesha County Sheriff's Department, Attention Records Division, PO Box 1488, Waukesha, WI 53187-1488, by fax at 262-548-7887, or through the county's online/email icon process where available. The research lists copy fees of $0.25 per copied page and $10 for CD or DVD copies.

Waukesha Huber Programs

Huber serves a reentry-like custody purpose, but it is still custody. Approved inmates may leave for work, education, child or family care, or other documented purposes, then return under county rules. The county's allowed-items page also warns about contraband and limits clothing, hygiene items, reading materials, and cash. Reading materials must come publisher-direct under the documented rules.

The county jail and Huber system also appears in the 2024 PREA audit's intake and screening material. The audit states that inmates admitted and processed into the Waukesha County Jail and Huber Facility are assessed with a PREA screening form to identify risk of sexual harassment or abuse by others or risk of being sexually abusive. That screening does not create a public profile, but it is part of the documented intake and safety process.
