The Sawyer County Jail Division consists of the Sawyer County Jail Security Staff and the Administrative Section which includes the Jail Administrator, Court Officer, Huber Officer, and Jail Administrative Secretary.  Lieutenant Kurt Barthel has been the Jail Administrator since 18 April 1997.

 

The Huber Wing of the Sawyer County Jail was constructed in 1973 and has a designed capacity of 34 inmates.  The Secure wing was opened in January of 2007 and has a capacity of 49 inmates.  The total facility capacity at that time was 83 inmates. In 2009 the Huber Wing had two Dorms remodeled, adding six beds making the total capacity of the jail 89. The old wing will be used as a Huber wing and is restricted to housing Huber eligible inmates only.
