Not sure where someone is being held after an arrest? We provide 24/7 inmate search assistance and clear next-step guidance so you can move fast once bail is set.
Informational guidance only — not legal advice. Jail rosters may be delayed or incomplete depending on the agency.
The problem we solve
Why Finding Someone Can Be Confusing
After an arrest, people can be held at different facilities depending on the arresting agency, the charge, and where the case is handled. Online rosters can also update slowly.
- Bookings may take hours to appear online
- Name spelling variations can prevent a match
- Some people are transferred between agencies
- Multiple “possible jails” exist in the same area
If you’re stuck, call or text — we’ll help you narrow down the most likely facility and next step.
What to gather
What We Need to Help You Locate Them
Even partial info can help. Here’s what’s most useful:
- Full legal name (first + last)
- Date of birth (if available)
- City of arrest or the arresting agency
- Approximate time/date of arrest
- Any paperwork, ticket, case number, or court name (if you have it)
Option B: move faster
Don’t Wait for the Roster to Update
If you can’t find them online yet, that doesn’t mean they aren’t in custody. It often means the system hasn’t updated or the booking is still processing.
In many situations, we can help you identify the correct direction before the roster updates, so you’re not losing hours.

Frequently asked questions
Inmate Search Assistance FAQs
Can you help me find where someone is being held?
Yes. Share the name, DOB (if available), and city/county involved and we’ll help you narrow down the correct direction.
Why isn’t their name showing up online yet?
Booking systems can take time to update, and names may be entered differently. Transfers can also delay listings.
What do I need to locate an inmate?
Full name is best. DOB helps a lot. The city of arrest or county involved also helps narrow it down.
Can you help even if I don’t know the jail yet?
Often, yes. Once we confirm the facility and bail is set (and a bond is allowed), we can guide next steps.
How much does a bail bond cost in Michigan?
In many cases, the premium is typically 10% of the bail amount. Payment options may be available depending on the case.
