Tulsa County Jail Roster: Find Inmates, Recent Bookings and Mugshots
Looking for someone arrested in Tulsa County, Oklahoma? The Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office maintains an online Inmate Information Center for people booked into the David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center. You can search by name, review available booking information and check whether a person is still in county custody.
The official search is free to access. Booking records may include charges, bond information and other details, although individual fields and booking photographs are not always publicly displayed.
Tulsa County Jail Quick Facts
How to Search the Tulsa County Jail Roster
The quickest way to locate a person in Tulsa County custody is through the Sheriff’s official inmate database. You do not need to visit the detention center to begin searching.
- Open the inmate search. Visit Tulsa County Inmate Information Center. If the direct link does not load, visit the Sheriff’s Jail Information page and select “Search by Name.”
- Enter the person’s name. Provide the first name, last name or both, according to the available search fields. Use the person’s legal name where possible.
- Review matching records. Check the returned names carefully. People with similar names may appear in the results.
- Open the relevant booking entry. Examine any available booking date, identification number, charges, bond or custody information.
- Verify the current status. If a release, transfer or court appearance is involved, contact the jail at 918-596-8900 before relying on an online listing.
If you have a booking ID, the Sheriff’s Booking ID List offers another way to review records. A booking ID identifies a booking event; it is not necessarily the same as a court case number.
Recent Tulsa County Jail Bookings and Arrest Records
When someone is arrested on a felony or misdemeanor allegation in Tulsa County, the person may be brought to the David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center for booking. Jail staff review arrest paperwork, record identifying information, take fingerprints and photographs, screen medical needs and determine an appropriate housing assignment.
Publicly accessible booking information may include the following:
| Record Field | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Full name | The name recorded during the jail intake process. |
| Booking number | A reference assigned to a particular jail booking. |
| Booking date | The date or time the person was processed into custody. |
| Charges | Alleged offenses or legal grounds for detention shown in the record. |
| Bond information | Any listed amount or conditions related to release on bond. |
| Custody status | Available information concerning current detention or release. |
| Booking photo | A photograph taken at intake, if made available in the public interface. |
The exact information presented can change based on record availability, privacy restrictions and system updates. A charge is an accusation, not proof that the person committed an offense.
How to Find Tulsa County Jail Mugshots
The Sheriff’s booking process includes photographing people who are admitted into custody. However, that does not mean every photograph is available for unrestricted online viewing.
- Open the official inmate search and locate the correct person.
- Review the booking details for an available image or photograph field.
- If a mugshot is not displayed, check the Sheriff’s public-information procedures rather than assuming a third-party image is accurate.
- For record access questions, contact the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office and identify the booking or inmate information you are seeking.
Mugshot websites sometimes retain images long after criminal cases are dismissed or resolved. For current information, prefer official jail and court records, and check the date associated with any image.
How to Check Charges, Bond and Court Dates
The inmate roster is useful for locating someone in custody, but a court docket is generally the better source for subsequent hearings, motions, dispositions and case outcomes.
Finding criminal charges
Locate the booking entry and review the listed allegations. A person may have multiple charges or holds associated with one detention. Arrest allegations can later be amended, declined or dismissed.
Checking bond information
If the record lists a bond amount, confirm it directly with the detention facility or the appropriate court before arranging payment. Some people cannot be released merely by paying a displayed amount because additional holds or legal conditions may apply.
Finding a court case
Oklahoma’s official court-record system is available through OSCN. Use the court records or docket search, select Tulsa County when applicable and search by name or case number.
Compare the defendant’s identity and case details rather than relying on the name alone. Some records may be confidential, sealed or otherwise unavailable online.
What If the Person Is Not on the Tulsa County Roster?
A missing inmate search result can have several explanations, including a recent arrest that has not completed processing, a release, a transfer to another institution or detention by a different agency.
Check the Tulsa Municipal Jail
City of Tulsa municipal custody is not identical to Tulsa County custody. The city operates a separate Municipal Jail Inmate Directory.
The Tulsa Municipal Jail is located at 600 Civic Center, Tulsa, OK 74103. Its telephone number is 918-596-2347. If the arrest involved a city ordinance violation or municipal matter, checking this separate directory may help.
Check Oklahoma state prison custody
If the person has been transferred to the state correctional system, consult the Oklahoma Department of Corrections for available offender search resources.
For a recent arrest with no visible record, call the facility that may have received the person. Avoid treating third-party booking aggregators as confirmation of current custody.

How to Send Mail to Tulsa County Jail
Address regular correspondence as follows:

Book and publication shipments have separate vendor rules. Review the current Sheriff’s mail policy before sending anything other than a standard letter.
Inmate Phone Calls and Communication

Families should contact the facility to confirm its current calling system, costs and account procedures. The jail also provides video visitation as an additional means of communication.
Release Dates, Transfers and Property Pickup
Release timing can depend on court orders, completion of booking or discharge procedures, outstanding warrants and holds from other agencies. Even after a bond is arranged, release may not occur immediately.
