Glendale Arrest and Booking Records

Glendale booking and release records come from two agencies. The Glendale Police Department handles arrests within city limits and maintains police reports and incident records. Jail booking records are kept by the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office which runs the county detention system. When Glendale police make an arrest, the person goes to a Maricopa County jail for booking. The city police have details about the arrest itself. The county sheriff has jail records showing custody status, charges, and bond amounts. For complete information about a Glendale arrest you may need records from both agencies.

Glendale Police Department handles requests for police reports and incident documents from city arrests. Contact the department to learn about their records request process.

Glendale PD can provide arrest reports, incident details, and other police documents. For questions about what records are available, contact the department directly. Staff can help you understand the process and fees.

Glendale Jail Booking Records

Jail booking records for Glendale arrests are at the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office. Glendale does not have its own jail.

Search current inmates at mcso.org/InmateInfo. Enter the person's name and date of birth to see custody status. The system shows charges, bond amounts, and facility location. Only current inmates appear in the search.

For copies of jail records, contact MCSO at 602-876-1078 or email PublicRecords@mcso.maricopa.gov. Only cash and money orders are accepted for payment. The sheriff's headquarters is at 550 W. Jackson St. in Phoenix.

Arizona Public Records Law

Both Glendale PD and Maricopa County must comply with this law. You do not need to give a reason for requests. Agencies charge fees for copies. Some information may be restricted for investigations or victim privacy.

Maricopa County Jail Services for Glendale Arrests

The Maricopa County jail system offers various services for inmates and their families. Since Glendale uses county jail, these services apply to Glendale arrests. This includes visitation, money deposits, and communication options.

Visitation at Maricopa County jails follows specific rules and schedules. Each facility has its own visiting hours. You must be on an approved visitor list in most cases. Bring valid photo ID to every visit. Check the MCSO website or call ahead to confirm current hours and requirements. Rules about what you can wear and bring apply strictly.

To add money to an inmate's account, use the Maricopa County approved methods. Electronic deposits go through third party services. These charge processing fees on top of your deposit amount. You can also deposit cash at jail kiosks during certain hours. Inmates use these funds for commissary purchases including snacks, hygiene items, phone time, and other approved products.

Phone calls from jail are handled through a contracted provider. Inmates can make collect calls or use prepaid accounts. Set up an account through the provider to receive calls from someone in county custody. Rates and fees vary based on call type and duration.
