Recently arrested? A person may not appear in an online inmate search while booking, identification, medical screening, release review or transfer is still underway. LAPD states that inmate records may not be available for bookings occurring within the most recent two hours. Processing and publication times for LASD and municipal police arrests can vary. If the online locator does not return a result, confirm the person's full legal name and date of birth, check again later or call the Los Angeles County inmate information line at (213) 473-6100.

What Happens After an Arrest in Los Angeles County?
After an arrest in Los Angeles County, the person may be processed at an LAPD jail, municipal police jail, LASD sheriff's station, court lockup or county custody facility. The next step depends on the arresting agency, alleged offense, warrants, medical needs, release eligibility and court requirements. A person may be cited and released, released after booking, transported to court, held at a local station or transferred into the Los Angeles County jail system. Many adult male inmates accepted into LASD county custody are processed through the Inmate Reception Center at 450 Bauchet Street. Women accepted into LASD custody may be processed or housed through Century Regional Detention Facility. Booking can include identity verification, fingerprinting, photographs, warrant checks, medical and mental-health screening, property inventory and classification. Online custody information may not appear until the responsible agency completes applicable processing and publishes the record.
