Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

Upon a finding by the Idaho department of juvenile corrections that a juvenile
in the custody of the department has escaped from custody, a written order
signed by the director or his designee shall be a sufficient order for
detention for any law enforcement officer to apprehend and take into custody
such person. It is hereby made the duty of all sheriffs, police, constables,
parole officers, prison officials and other peace officers, to execute such
order. From and after the issuance of the detention order and until taken into
custody, the escapee shall be considered a fugitive from justice. Upon
apprehension, the juvenile shall be detained in the closest available
detention center and shall thereafter be transported by the department as soon
as possible or, at the discretion of the detaining authority, the juvenile may
be transported directly by that authority to the department's nearest regional
facility.
