How to Find an Inmate at Orleans Correctional Facility
Members of the public can look for a person in custody by using the official inmate search link available on this page. State and jail inmate records typically list the person’s name, identification number, custody location, admission or booking date, charges or conviction information, and custody status when available. Records do not always appear immediately after an arrest or transfer. Processing, identity confirmation, and data entry can take several hours, and some records may not be searchable until the next update. If the person was just arrested in Orleans County, also check with the local arresting agency or county jail because a state prison record may not apply yet.
