This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release anyone, post bond, schedule visitation, or retrieve official booking records. For custody, release, bond, or record copies, use the official office that controls the record.

For common record searches, start here:
- For a person in the Carver County Jail, use jail inmate records and remember that new bookings may not appear until intake is complete and a booking number is assigned.
- For booking-photo questions, use jail roster mugshots and the Sheriff Records Unit if the photo is not on the public roster.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Carver County District Court.
- For a facility-specific question, use the Carver County Jail page or call the jail at (952) 361-1145.
- For a sentenced Minnesota prisoner, search the MNDOC locator; prison custody notifications use Minnesota Haven, while Minnesota county jail custody notifications are available through VINELink.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator or the ICE detainee locator.
