Oklahoma County, Oklahoma Inmate Search
An inmate search is a tool that allows members of the public to look up people who are currently in jail, or sometimes those who were recently released. Oklahoma County has an Inmate Search tool managed by the Oklahoma County Detention Center (OCDC), which allows members of the public to find basic information about inmates. An Oklahoma County inmate search will reveal the inmate’s personal details, booking number and date, charges, offense date, arrest information, case number, crime type, and court information.
Oklahoma County has police departments in the cities where people are held before being transferred to the OCDC. The Edmond Police Department and the Del City Police Department are typical examples. Individuals may visit these police departments to conduct inmate searches. The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) maintains an Inmate Roster and a corrections facility (called FTC Oklahoma City), where individuals may find Oklahoma County federal offenders.
How to Find an Inmate in Oklahoma County Jail
Members of the public may find inmates in the Oklahoma County Detention Center (OCDC) online or in person at the correctional facility. The Inmate Search portal provides basic information about people currently in custody. Users must provide a name to search.
