How to Find an Inmate at Rufe Jordan Unit / Baten Intermediate Sanction Facility

State and jail rosters typically list basic custody information such as the person’s name, identification number, booking or received date, current facility, charges or offense information, and custody status. Records do not always appear immediately after a person is booked or transferred; intake and processing can take several hours, and state system updates may take longer.
