This private reference site is not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, arrange a release, accept bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that holds the record for those services.
Finding the Right Office
The Wayne County Sheriff's Office lists Central Administration at 5301 Russell Street, Detroit, MI 48211. Administration is 313-833-0864, and the adult-detention inmate-information line is 313-224-0797. The official Sheriff Connect contact page is the current source for the agency's routing and non-emergency information. A request for an unlisted booking photo, booking sheet, or report can start through the Wayne County FOIA form or the county's NextRequest portal.
- For a current county-custody question, use the live Wayne County inmate inquiry and confirm limits with inmate information.
- For a Detroit arrest report or photo request, contact DPD FOIA at DPDFOIA@detroitmi.gov, 2 Woodward Avenue, Suite 500, Detroit, MI 48226, fax 313-224-5505.
- For a Dearborn record, use Police-FOIA@dearborn.gov or 313-943-2230. The official records page lists the online route and fax 313-943-3048.
- For a Livonia record, contact Central Records at 734-466-2386 or foia@livoniapd.com. Jail Operations is 734-466-2361, and Central Records is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
- For a court disposition, start with the jurisdiction's court, then use the Third Judicial Circuit for a felony matter after bindover when appropriate.
- For state, federal, or immigration custody, use the official MDOC OTIS, BOP, or ICE locator rather than a county jail search.
