Oklahoma Inmate Search

Oklahoma's correctional facility and jail system aim to mold inmates into better beings. While the state has its prisons, it also outsources to private prisons to hold inmates. 

The best way to get information about an incarcerated person is through Oklahoma's inmate records. These records consist of files that document an offender's interaction with the criminal justice system. They capture everything from arrests to parole or probation and rely on confinement facilities, courts, and local law enforcement as sources. 

How to conduct Inmate Search in Oklahoma 

The state inmate records capture a person's name, gender, age, race, physical description, and birth date. They also feature fingerprints, mugshots, DNA, audio or video, and information about their charges, sentencing, and convictions. 

You can find an inmate in Oklahoma with the Offender Locator tool on the ODC website. The search process is straightforward since state laws consider inmate records public information. 

Here's the step-by-step process: 

1. From the Offender Locator service, you'll find information about inmates locked up in correctional facilities across Oklahoma. The service doesn't list details about inmates in county jails or juvenile offenders. 
2. Key in the person's name in the search box provided and answer the Captcha quiz before clicking search. The service also allows you to use an inmate's DOC number, birth date, and first name to search. 
3. Click the person's name to learn more about their offender status in Oklahoma. The search results may include their offenses, booking date, conviction, and estimated release date. Contact the department at 73111-42 to get the records if you can't find them online.
