How to Find an Inmate at London Correctional Institution
Members of the public can look up an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster. Inmate search records typically list identifying information such as the person’s name, inmate number, booking or admission date, charges or offenses, custody status, and current housing location when available. For state prison inmates, records may also show sentence information, admission date, and release eligibility details. New records usually become searchable after booking, transfer, or intake processing is completed. This can take several hours, and records may not appear immediately after an arrest, court commitment, or facility transfer.
