Which system is holding them?

There is no single search that covers everyone in Palm Beach County. Match the situation to the right official locator — most families start with the first one.

If the arrest was recent

Start with the local jail

For a recent local arrest, check the arresting jurisdiction’s official jail roster or custody-notification service. Housing may be at a municipal, county, regional, or contracted facility. If no record appears, ask the arresting agency or jail how to confirm the booking; do not infer the destination from distance or a facility listing.

Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Department of Corrections operates multiple detention facilities. Its public booking blotter supports lookup for people currently in custody at one of its facilities or booked within the past year. PBSO says records cover the facilities/county jail; mobile or remote booking/transport may be available to Palm Beach law-enforcement agencies by request.

Palm Beach County Sheriff Booking Blotter

The booking blotter form exposes date range, last name, first name, street, city, statute, and arresting-agency selector fields plus other inputs. Page says enter full or partial information into any fields; a robot verification prompt is shown. Public form controls were reached; no personal search submitted.

PBSO says information should not be relied upon for legal action and cannot be represented as current, accurate, or complete; displayed search window is one year and form asks users to minimize searches to 31 days. Phone role conflict: custody FAQ says booking information from Inmate Records 561-688-4340, while current Booking & Property division lists Inmate Records/Information 561-688-4358; not used as phone assistance. Scope concerns PBSO correctional facilities, not proof that every municipal booking transfers there.

Local source reviewed 2026-10-05. Public search controls were reached; individual search results were not checked.

If nothing appears, contact the arresting agency or the responsible jail to ask how to confirm booking. A missing record does not prove release, and an agency may limit what it can disclose.

If they were sentenced to prison

Use the correctional locator

For a state-prison sentence, use the Florida correctional locator. A short jail sentence may still be served in a local or regional jail. A sentence alone does not establish the housing location; confirm with the responsible agency.

State-prison and state-supervision records; explicitly excludes county jail/probation

If the charge is federal

Search the Federal Bureau of Prisons

A federal charge does not tell you which building holds the person. The U.S. Marshals Service is responsible for federal pretrial detention and may use local, state, private, or federal facilities. Check the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator, but a missing result does not establish that the person is not detained. For a recent federal arrest, contact the arresting agency or the relevant U.S. Marshals district office to ask about the appropriate custody-information process. USMS is a contact route, not a public person locator, and disclosure of a location is not guaranteed.

Search the Federal BOP locator U.S. Marshals district directory

Other kinds of custody

Immigration detention has a separate official ICE detainee locator. It does not search for people under 18, and a missing result does not prove release; use the official ICE field-office contacts. Search by A-number and country of birth, or the name/country/date-of-birth information requested by the service. Access and disclosure can be restricted.

Juvenile and tribal custody may have different agencies, privacy rules, and search limits. This guide does not provide a comprehensive juvenile or tribal locator. Contact the arresting agency or responsible juvenile or tribal authority to confirm the correct process.

For federal pretrial detention, use the U.S. Marshals district directory. Federal responsibility can include housing in a local jail.

Nearby counties in Florida

If the arrest happened just across a county line, these Florida counties are geographic navigation aids. Open a guide for official custody resources; these links do not establish detention or transport destinations.

If you need to bail them out in Florida

Finding the person comes first. Once you know where they are being held, this is how getting them out works in Florida.

Commercial bail available

Release depends on the court’s order. A payment is not required in every case. Ask the court which secured-bond options, if any, are permitted; a private commercial bond service has separate fees and conditions. Confirm the process before paying anyone.

The person’s rights. The person in custody has the right to talk to a lawyer about their case, and if they cannot afford one, the court can appoint a public defender.

Common questions about finding someone in Palm Beach County

How do I find someone who was just arrested in Palm Beach County?

For a recent local arrest, check the arresting jurisdiction’s official jail roster or custody-notification service. Housing may be at a municipal, county, regional, or contracted facility. If no record appears, ask the arresting agency or jail how to confirm the booking; do not infer the destination from distance or a facility listing.

How do I find someone in state prison from Palm Beach County?

For a state-prison sentence, use the Florida correctional locator. A short jail sentence may still be served in a local or regional jail. A sentence alone does not establish the housing location; confirm with the responsible agency.

Is there a free way to check if someone is in custody in Florida?

Public custody searches are free. VINE name-search fields reached without signing in; participating-agency coverage must be verified This form is FDC state prison notification; separate county jail services need local verification. Check whether the responsible local agency participates. Use its contact when the service is unavailable; a missing record does not establish release.

How does bail work for someone held in Palm Beach County?

Ask the court or responsible jail for the release order and permitted options. Court deposits and private service fees are different, conditions vary, and payment does not guarantee release.
