Here is a website for California Correctional Facilities. If the person you are looking for is there, it will show a release date.\nAlso, the second link I"m sending is for California State Prisons.\nGood Luck ~

While I don't know about your particular state, I am aware that in Georgia, you can do a search of current and past prison inmates.  Perhaps if you try to do a search for "[YOUR STATE NAME HERE] Department of Corrections" at Google.com, then you might have some luck.\n\nOtherwise, I do believe that criminal records are not necessarily public information.  You usually have to obtain that information from an NCIC report which is usually only obtainable by law enforcement officials.\n\nGood luck!

It all depends on where you are.  First check to see what county it is in and check the Superior Court website (court may be called something else).  Then check if available the court calendar and minute entries.  The minute entries will give you more detailed information.  \n\nIf the person was sentenced to jail (less than 1 year) you can check at the county sheriff's office for more information.  If the person was sent to department of corrections (prison) check the state d.o.c. website.

If you think they may still be in Jail call a bailbonds place. They get public records very quickly. Tell them you want to bail out whomever your talking about but you dont know where they are. Dont tell them you dont know if they did get arrested because then they wont waist their time looking.

If you are looking for someone in particular try OTIS. You can get to it from Michigan's home page. All you do it input the name and other details and it will tell you what prison they are in, the length of the sentence, the crime, and even if they have been released.

go to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's web page. There is a link for the booking log. \n\nhttp://www.co.san-bernardino.ca.us/Sheriff/Public/Booking/Booking.asp\n\nNote that only the previous 72 hours of data are kept on the web site. If the arrest occurred prior to that, you'll have to go in person to the county jail where the inmate was/is incarcerated, fill out a form, know the date of arrest, as well as the inmate's full name.

Alot of prisons have websites, or you could try searching a persons name, an arrest and conviction would show up on a search.

Try looking for the Georgia Department of Corrections website.  Sometimes they'll have a way that you can look for someone that is incarcerated as long as you know their name and number.  \n\nGood luck in your search.

You do understand that jails are TEMPORARY holding facilities and PRISONS are for long term holding?\n\nIs this a local jail you are interested in or a State or Federal Prison?\n\nIf you have a name and birthdate (or maybe a social security #) you could look on the State's Department of Corrections website.  You will probably have to call the Department though.  It is usually public record - so they will tell you if he/she is incarcerated.\n\nIf it is a Federal prison that they are in - I know you can do an online search.

Hey, all you have to do is call  the lawrence county jail in pa and they should tell you if they still have the inmate in custody, what he was charged with and if he/she is not there they should give you the release date.  It is all public information so you shouldn't have any problems getting the information.
