How to Search Adams County Inmate Records

The Adams County Sheriff's Office provides an online inmate search tool. You can access it through their official website. The search works best when you enter partial names. Try using just the first few letters of a first name, last name, or both. This approach returns more results than exact spelling attempts.

Visit the Adams County Inmate Search page to begin your lookup. The system displays current inmates only. If you cannot find someone, they may have been released. They could also be in another facility. You may also contact the detention center directly for assistance. For warrant information, the sheriff's office maintains a separate warrant search. Not finding a warrant does not mean one does not exist. Other agencies may have issued warrants. Some warrants may not yet appear in the automated system. Always verify warrant status with the Adams County Warrants Section at (720) 322-1325.
