INMATE SEARCH

Search for any Jail, Prison, Detention Center or Inmate in America.

COUNTY JAILS

In the United States there are thousands of city and county jails, each which have their own inmate search portal or inmate roster. In order to find someone who has recently been arrested by local police or a county sheriff, you need to visit that specific county jail and either call them directly or click on the inmate search link, both of which we provide on this website. 

Other information you will find on this website's jail pages is how to set up accounts with the jail (or with third party services) to visit, review the visitation schedules, and phone and mail an inmate in each jail, as this information differs from jail to jail. 

You can also find information on how to send an inmate money to buy snacks or sundries from the jail's commissary, how to order products for them online that can be shippd to the jail, how and where to buy them books and/or magazines, and how to text or email them.

To start, click on the search button below, choose the state, then the county where you think your inmate is being held. We have compiled all the information you need.

STATE AND FEDERAL PRISONS
