Recent Arrests, Inmate Charges & Bail by Agency

Choose the police department, campus police agency or Sheriff patrol service connected to an arrest. Find local custody guidance and request help with inmate location, arrest charges, bail amounts and court dates.

Start with the arresting agency

A city name does not always identify the arresting agency. Some cities use the Orange County Sheriff for police services, campuses have separate police departments, and airport, harbor and transit arrests can involve specialized units. An arrest location and a current housing facility can be different.

What information can I request?

Ask about current custody location, available alleged arrest charges and charge codes, booking details, assigned court dates and current bail amounts. Identify any additional holds or release requirements. A missing record does not establish that a person has been released.

Not sure which agency made the arrest?

Submit the person’s name, approximate arrest time and location using the inmate inquiry form. You should receive a follow-up within five minutes. If no response arrives or the matter is urgent, call (714) 616-1387.

Agency coverage is based on the county police directory and Sheriff patrol directory, reviewed October 23, 2026. Dana Point and Yorba Linda are listed once under Sheriff services to avoid duplicate guides. For emergencies call 911.
