I know someone who is currently in prison, but I don't know exactly which prison they are in. Is there a way to search for an inmate by name?
To conduct a search, you will need to know whether the inmate is incarcerated in a state or a federal prison. You will also need to know the state, and sometimes the county, in which the inmate is incarcerated and, either the inmate's full name as it appears in records, or the inmate's ID number. Other helpful information includes the inmate's date of birth. There are numerous inmate-search websites, which may be found with the search terms, "inmate search". These sites often provide links to search engines by state. If you are unable to find the inmate using this method, you can search the old-fashioned way by calling each facility where the inmate is likely to be incarcerated.
You can do this for free using an inmate search directory located at Konmart.com
You can visit websites like the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Inmate Locator at www.bop.gov/inmateloc/ or state-specific Department of Corrections websites to find information about inmates. Make sure to have the inmate's full name or inmate number to perform an accurate search.
Visit the California DOC website if they are in prison, and do an inmate search there....if they are in jail then you will need to find the county and search that on google.

My uncle was incarcerated last night and I need to find information. Are there websites for free inmate searches?
Many states/counties provide inmate records online. You can start with the county sheriff's office or detention center. Vinelink also provides inmate records for many counties in the country. You can search the database by the inmate's name. Results may include incarceration date, expected release date, type of offense and sometimes photos of the offender. If inmate searching is not available for the jail, you can call the sheriff or detention center for inmate information.
