For the most common records tasks, start with the source that controls the record rather than a third-party site.
- For someone held at the county jail, use jail inmate records and then call the detention center if the roster does not answer the custody question.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots or make a precise PIA request if the image is not posted.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and Maryland Judiciary Case Search.
- For a specific facility, use the facility pages in the footer for the jail, the two Cumberland state prisons, and FCI Cumberland.
- For a sentenced Maryland prisoner, use the Maryland DPSCS Incarcerated Individual Locator rather than the county jail roster.
- For a federal inmate or immigration detainee, use the BOP Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
