Maricopa County jail inmate search

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office posts a daily population list. Check it to find out who's in custody. This roster is a daily report, so recent arrests won't appear until the next list goes up.

Every entry shows key details like these:

• Age, sex, race, date of birth, and full name
• Booking date and booking number
• Expected release date and custody status

Write the booking number down so you have it for calls or bond payments.

The Intake, Transfer, and Release center takes in new arrivals, and it's open 24 hours a day. The online list is a daily report, so someone booked today might not show on your screen right away.

Don't wait on the web list after a recent arrest. Call (602) 876-0322 and give the clerk the person's full name to check recent bookings.

Call (602) 876-0322 to reach the 4th Avenue Jail for custody information. The Maricopa County Clerk of Superior Court asks that you have the person's full name and booking number ready.
