How to Find an Inmate at Leo Chesney Correctional Facility

Inmate rosters usually list basic custody information such as the person’s name, booking date, listed charges or holding authority, and current custody status.

If the person is not listed, check again later or contact the facility or the responsible agency for confirmation. In California, some inmates may also appear in a county sheriff or state corrections search system depending on which agency has legal custody.
