Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Inglewood Jail
Public inmate information is usually available through an official custody or inmate search tool. Rosters typically list basic details such as the person’s name, booking date, booking number, charges, bail or bond information, housing location, and custody status when available. Records do not always appear immediately after an arrest because booking, fingerprinting, medical screening, and data entry can take several hours. If a person was recently arrested, check again later or contact the facility directly for guidance. Use the official inmate search link provided on this page to access the facility’s roster or the appropriate Los Angeles County custody search system.

What happens during the intake process at Inglewood Jail and when will the inmate appear in the system?
