Cleveland County Inmate Search & Jail Records

Inmate/jail records are physical or digital documentation of individuals held in custody at the county's detention facility. These records are created at the time of arrest and booking, long before the case is filed in court. They contain intake information, including the inmate's name, age, race, gender, booking date & number, charge(s), bond amount, detention status, release information, and next court date.

In Cleveland County, inmates are housed in two detention facilities: the Cleveland County Detention Center and the Law Enforcement Detention Center, both of which are managed by the Cleveland County Sheriff's Office. Information about persons in custody can be reviewed online using the Sheriff's online inmate inquiry tool.
