Mohave County Jail Booking Records

Mohave County booking and release records are kept by the Mohave County Sheriff's Office. The jail in Kingman processes arrests from Lake Havasu City, Bullhead City, and other communities in northwestern Arizona. The online inmate search tool has been turned off to comply with recent court rulings. You can still get booking information through other methods. The sheriff now provides inmate lists through press releases instead of a searchable database. For individual booking details, call the jail directly. Staff can confirm custody status and share basic information about charges and bond amounts.
