Names, photos, or arrest records never appear on County Jail Lookup. The booking details the county publishes for a person in custody are in the sheriff's Inmate Information System.

The point of a bail bond is to guarantee financially that the person will return to court after release. County judges across California decide the countywide bail schedule. Release on a person's own recognizance, detention, extra conditions, or bail may be what the judge orders. Own recognizance means a promise in writing to appear in court.

Commercial bail is allowed, so a bail agent acting for a surety insurer can post a bond. Call the Robert Presley Detention Center at (951) 955-4500 for bond amounts, or visit the California inmate search hub.

Staff must finish the paperwork and check for any other holds, so out-processing takes time. After a bond is posted or a judge orders release, call the Robert Presley Detention Center at (951) 955-4500. You can ask staff to confirm the person's release status and which door to use for pickup.
