Start with the county where the person was arrested or is believed to be held. Use the county inmate-search resources above to check available jail and booking information. If the individual is in the state correctional system rather than a county jail, use the official Indiana State Inmate Search provided by the Indiana Department of Correction.
How Do I Find Someone Arrested in Indianapolis?

Why Can't I Find Someone Who Was Just Arrested?
A person may not appear in an inmate search immediately after an arrest. The individual may still be going through intake, identification, booking or record processing. Search information can also vary by county. If the arrest was recent, check the official county resource again after additional processing time.
What Information Do I Need for an Indiana Inmate Search?
Start with the person's full legal name. A date of birth, county of arrest, booking number or offender number can help narrow the results when available. Always compare identifying information carefully before assuming a search result belongs to the person you are looking for.
Is an Indiana Inmate Search the Same as a Court Case Search?
No. An inmate search is primarily used to locate someone in custody or review available jail or correctional information. Court records may contain separate information about criminal charges, hearings and case activity. Depending on what you need to know, you may need to check both sources.
Can I See an Inmate's Bond Amount Online?
Bond information may be available through jail or court records, but what is displayed varies by county and case. The court determines whether bond is available, the bond type and the amount.
