Where Can Mugshots Be Found for Free?

In Jackson County, mugshots can be found at the county level through the county’s Board of County Commissioners, or via the county correctional facility. Although most jails in Florida provide a jail roster available online, this is not the case in Jackson County.

Since mugshots are considered public records—as mandated by the law, you may contact these county level resources to get what you need.

When searching for very recent arrest records, on the other hand, you can also check the city police department within the county, as they typically capture mugshots and keep records of individuals that they have recently taken into custody.

Mugshots may also be found from state-level resources, especially for offenders that are being transferred to the state prison, through the Florida Department of Correction.

Mugshots are typically taken after an arrest and for offenders that are transferred to the state prisons. Retrieving state and federal prisoners’ mugshots will be covered in the following section.

How To View Prison Mugshots in Florida (State & Federal Search Options)

As previously mentioned, mugshots are considered public records in Florida. Interested individuals who want to obtain prisoner mugshots should extend their search to the state-level resources, since state prisoners’ information usually cannot be accessed via a county-level resource.

The Florida Department of Corrections (DOC) allows the public to access mugshots of current, escaped, and released prisoners.⁸ Utilize the relevant databases below to search for prisoners, depending on their status.

Inmate Population Information Search: For those that are currently incarcerated in the state prisons.

Inmate Release Information Search: Use to specifically search for information of released/scheduled for release offenders.

Inmate Escape Information Search: Allows to view escaped prisoner’s information or for those escapees that are not recaptured within 15 days.

Supervised Population Information Search: It enables users to search for individuals that are currently under supervision – those on probation or parole.

Absconder/Fugitive Information Search: This feature allows citizens to lookup offenders who have been classified as absconders or fugitives (typically meaning those hiding or running from law enforcement).

However, if you are unsure of the offender’s status, the DOC also offers an Offender Information Search Tool, where results are retrieved from all available databases.

To verify the accuracy of the results from these online sources, you may contact the Florida Department of Corrections at:

Florida Department of Corrections
501 South Calhoun St.
Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2500

Phone: 850.488.7052

Alternatively, you may also acquire mugshots by submitting an Online Public Record Request.

Furthermore, when accessing federal prisoner’s information, you may use the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) inmate search tool. This tool requires the individual name (first and last name) and BOP register number to begin the search.

Thanks to the federal Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and Florida Sunshine Law, citizens can access this information for free.¹¹ However, it is important to note that this must not be used for harassment, intimidation, or to any illegal purposes. The public must also comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) guidelines.

If curious on the other type of public records, such as verifying marital status, locating a property, or tracking down an individual’s criminal background, not just in Jackson County, refer to the instructions for obtaining all free Florida public records.

Having a clear understanding on how to run a Jackson County mugshot search, anyone can efficiently obtain this information.
