How to Find an Inmate at Towers Jail
Members of the public can look for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster. County jail rosters typically list the inmate’s name, booking date, assigned charges, custody status, and sometimes court or bond information. Records usually become searchable after booking and processing are completed, which can take several hours, so a new arrest may not appear immediately. If you cannot find the person right away, check again later and confirm the spelling of the name or booking information.
