How To Conduct a Hennepin County Inmate Search Through the Sheriff’s Online Jail Roster
If you want to find out if someone is in jail, you can do so by performing a search with the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office Jail Roster.1 Here, you can get information for individuals that were arrested or jailed in Hennepin County. In addition, this tool can be used to find someone’s mugshot.
Before performing your search, gather all information already available to you. The more information you have, the better chance you will find what you are looking for. Detailed information is also helpful if you have to filter through multiple search results.
Here are some examples of information that may be helpful in performing your search:
- Full Name of Person
- Charges
- Date and Time of Arrest
- Location of Arrest
In performing a search through the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office online directory, you have two options. The first option is to perform a basic name search, while the second option is to search these Hennepin County public records regarding inmates by custody status.
Here you can set a date range and search by selecting any of the following options:
- Received by Jail
- Currently in Jail (in custody)
- Released from Jail
Regardless of which search option you choose, once you enter your information you can view a list of results with the individual’s name and age. The search results will also provide their booking number and inform you as to their current custody status.
Once you click on a particular individual, you can view their mugshot along with other relevant information such as when they were arrested and the arresting agency. The arresting agency information is valuable if you want additional information such as arrest reports or other related information.
The search tool also provides a list of the individual’s charges. This can be helpful if you want to know specifically what criminal charges were brought against someone. You can also get bail information here and a case number.
This will be helpful information if you want to search Hennepin County criminal records (more will be discussed later on how to search criminal records and how they are different from Hennepin County arrest records).
