Where to Look First
Use the record type to choose the first official source.
- For someone in the county jail, start with jail inmate records and the sheriff's phone line.
- For booking photos, review jail roster mugshots and ask the sheriff about a data-practices request.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and MCRO.
- For the local facility, use the Mahnomen County Jail page and call before visiting.
- For a state-sentenced prisoner, use the Minnesota Department of Corrections public locator.
- For federal or immigration custody, use BOP, ICE ODLS, or USMS FOIA depending on the custody type.
