Washington County Booking Reports

Washington has 39 counties, and each county sheriff runs the local jail. Every jail has to keep a public booking register under RCW 70.48.100. Most sheriffs post a daily jail roster online with names, charges, booking dates, and bail info. Some counties also offer a full inmate lookup tool that lets you search by name. The level of detail and the way you search varies from county to county. Pick a county below to find the local sheriff, jail address, inmate search link, and other booking record tools for that area.

Booking records in Washington fall under two main laws. The Public Records Act in RCW 42.56 sets the rules for public access. The Criminal Records Privacy Act in RCW 10.97 draws the line between open and closed data. Most jail rosters are free to view. Paper copies and certified records carry small per-page fees.
