St. Lucie County Inmate Search

St. Lucie County is located in the southeastern part of Florida. The Sheriff’s Office is the primary law enforcement agency in the county. This office also operates the county jail where individuals are held in custody or incarcerated after sentencing for a crime, usually misdemeanors with sentence lengths of less than one year.

Interested members of the public may perform a St. Lucie County inmate search to obtain information about persons in custody or incarcerated in a correctional facility in the county. The public availability of inmate records is provided for under the Florida Freedom of Information Act, aka Sunshine Laws.

Requests for inmate records typically go to the Sheriff’s Office, especially when the inmate is incarcerated in a county jail. In cases where an individual wishes to look up information about an inmate in a state or federal prison, the search starts on databases maintained by the Florida Department of Corrections or the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

St. Lucie County has a population of about 330,000 residents, according to 2020 Census data provided by the US Census Bureau. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement collects and publishes crime and incarceration statistics for all counties in Florida.

How to Find an Inmate in St. Lucie County

Persons looking for information on inmates at St. Lucie County jail may contact the Department of Detention directly at (772) 462-3450.

How Does a St. Lucie County Inmate Search Work?

Inmate information is available to interested members of the public per the Florida Sunshine Laws. However, not all information is publicly available. State laws prohibit the publishing of inmate records that may contain private details, sensitive information, or details about minors. As such, juvenile records are restricted from general public access. Persons who wish to obtain sealed or restricted records must obtain a court order to that effect.

For publicly available inmate information, though, access to the records is possible with a St. Lucie County inmate search. An inmate lookup can provide physical descriptive information about an inmate as well as incarceration details, trial, and sentencing information. To obtain inmate information, a requestor must know enough details to facilitate a search. Some information one can expect to see about an inmate include:

  • Full name
  • Photograph
  • Age and date of birth
  • Assigned gender at birth
  • Race
  • Physical description (hair color, eye color, height, and weight)
  • Booking number
  • Housing information
  • Visitation schedule
  • Expected release date
  • Release status
  • Parole status
  • Arresting agency
  • Charge description
  • Bond amount and requirements
  • Trial details and dates of court appearances

Where to Find a St. Lucie County Inmate Locator

The St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office maintains an online inmate locator that is accessible to the public 24/7 for free. Persons who wish to obtain additional details about an inmate may call the Records Unit at (772) 462-3299 or the Department of Detention at (772) 462-3450. Alternatively, they may schedule an in-person visit to the administrative office at the jail or Sheriff’s Office during regular business hours.

The Florida Department of Corrections maintains a registry of past and current inmates at correctional institutions across the state. The Offender Search is available to the public for free and requestors may query it with the name, incarceration status, and identification number of an offender. It is also possible to narrow down the search results by age range, gender, race, and other criteria when there are multiple results for the same name. However, note that this database only contains information about persons in state prisons.

Besides the aforementioned methods and tools provided by law enforcement agencies, interested persons may use third-party services to lookup an inmate. The minimum requirement to facilitate an inmate search on these sites is the inmate’s name. While it is possible to find third-party inmate locators that provide the service for free, many aggregate websites charge a one-time fee or subscription for their services. The amount varies with the site and the robustness of information available through the service provider.
