Use the list below to choose the right record path before calling or filing a request.
- For someone in local county custody, start with jail inmate records and the Justice Services inmate locator for the St. Louis County Justice Center.
- For booking photos or roster photo limits, review jail roster mugshots and use the St. Louis County NextRequest public records portal for records not shown online.
- For charges, dockets, case numbers, bond entries, and dispositions after filing, use court records after a jail arrest and Missouri Case.net.
- For a specific local or state facility, use the facility pages for the St. Louis County Justice Center and Missouri Eastern Correctional Center.
- For a sentenced Missouri prisoner, use the Missouri Department of Corrections Offender Web Search instead of the county jail locator.
- For federal custody, search the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. For immigration detention, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System. For custody notifications, use VINELink where available.
