How to Find an Inmate at Pendleton OR Police Jail
To find an inmate, check the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster or custody listing. Inmate rosters usually show basic booking details such as the person’s name, booking date, listed charges, and current custody status. Records do not always appear immediately after an arrest because booking, identity review, and data entry can take several hours. If the person is not listed, check again later or contact the facility or Umatilla County jail staff for current custody information. For short-term police holds, the person may be transferred, released, or taken to court before an online record is updated.
