Bellevue Police Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The intake process at the Bellevue Police Jail is made up of each of these steps:

They’ll put you in a holding cell. When the jail is busy, you will have to wait a while to get processed.

First, you must answer a bunch of questions, like what is your legal name, address, birthdate and a contact person, and you will also be asked about your medical and mental history. Next, you will be issued an inmate number and you will get fingerprinted. Then, all personal property will get taken away from you and stored until you are released.

They will allow you to use the telephone to contact family, friends, or loved one.

If you are expected to be released quickly, you might be able to keep wearing street clothes, if not you you will have to wear a jail issued jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

Once you are able to post bail, you will be discharged from jail. Getting discharged may take between 10 minutes to quite a few hours. In other words the quicker bail is posted, the quicker you will be released. How quickly you get discharged will depend on whether or not you’ve got a cash bond or if a magistrate still needs to decide on how much to set your bail at. For minor offenses, you will simply be booked and get released without having to post bail. When you get to the end of your sentence and have a release date, expect to get discharged anywhere between the hours of 9am and 12pm.

If the inmate has a garnishment, then money to pay them will be taken from the inmate’s bank account.

We recommend that inmates talk to the counselor at their facility and try to find out. You can also try to make an arrangement so that only a percentage of your commissary funds are taken, instead of all your funds take at one time.
