Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Lawrenceville Correctional Center
The public can search for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page. State prison and jail rosters usually list basic custody information such as the person’s name, identification number, booking or admission date, charges or offense information, sentence details when available, and custody status. Records may not appear immediately after a person is booked, transferred, or processed; it can take several hours or longer for information to become searchable. If the person was recently arrested, also check the local jail or court handling the case, because sentenced state inmates and pretrial detainees may be listed in different systems.
