Flagstaff Inmate Population Records

Flagstaff inmate population records involve both city police and Coconino County jail. When Flagstaff Police arrest someone, that person goes to the county detention facility. Flagstaff has a unique combined records program that serves both city police and county sheriff. This page explains how to find Flagstaff inmate information and request police records.

Flagstaff Inmate Search Through Coconino County

Flagstaff does not run its own jail. People arrested by Flagstaff Police go to Coconino County detention. The county does not have online inmate search. Call the Flagstaff jail at (928) 226-5200 to check if someone is in custody.

The jail can tell you if a person is being held. They provide basic booking information over the phone. This takes more time than online search, but it works around the clock.

Flagstaff Arrest Records Access

Arrest records are public in Arizona under A.R.S. 39-121. You can request copies of police reports from the combined records office. This covers both city police and county sheriff reports in one place.

Crime victims get one free copy of their police report under A.R.S. 39-127. Contact the records unit about victim requests.

Some records have restrictions. Active investigation files may be withheld. Juvenile records are sealed by state law. Medical information gets redacted from public copies. Staff will explain any exemptions when you make a request.

Note: Without online inmate search, phone calls to the jail are the main way to check custody status in Coconino County.

Flagstaff vs State Prison Records

Flagstaff Police handle local arrests. Coconino County jail holds pretrial defendants and misdemeanor offenders. State prison holds felons sentenced to more than one year. Each system keeps separate records.

Search for state prison inmates at inmatedatasearch.azcorrections.gov. The county jail will not show people who transferred to state custody. Both searches are free and work around the clock.

Flagstaff Victim Notification

VINE provides automated alerts when an inmate's custody status changes. Register at vinelink.com and select Arizona. You will get phone calls, emails, or texts for releases, transfers, and other custody events. The service is free.

Arizona protects victim rights under A.R.S. 13-4412. Victims receive notice of court proceedings and can attend hearings. You can speak at sentencing. Contact the Coconino County Attorney for victim services assistance.

Flagstaff Booking Process

When Flagstaff Police arrest someone, they transport the person to Coconino County detention. The booking process takes several hours. Staff collect fingerprints, photographs, and personal information. They enter the person into the jail database.

Bail gets set at the initial hearing, usually within 24 hours of arrest. A judge considers the charges and defendant history. Some people get released on their own recognizance. Others must post bail through cash or a bail bond company.

Without an online inmate search, you must call the jail to check custody status. Staff will tell you if someone is held and provide basic booking information. Call (928) 226-5200 for inmate inquiries.

Flagstaff Inmate Services

Inmates at Coconino County detention have access to various services. Commissary accounts let families send money for snacks and hygiene items. Phone services help maintain family contact during incarceration. The jail uses third party vendors for these services.

Contact the detention center for current service provider information. You will need the inmate's name and booking number to set up accounts and send money. Video visitation may be available depending on facility capabilities.

The combined records program in Flagstaff simplifies the records process. One office handles both police and sheriff reports. This saves time if you need records from both agencies. Contact the records division at (928) 214-2530 for information about obtaining documents.
