Contact and Records Routing

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, retrieve an official record, or change a booking entry. Contact the responsible agency directly for those services.


Official Sonoma County Contacts

The Sonoma County Sheriff's Central Information Bureau maintains detention files after release and manages the county warrant system. Use the online request form, mail, or visit during Records hours. Ask for a fee estimate before authorizing a copy when a charge may apply.

Choose the channel that matches the question:

  • For a booking photo, current jail match, old detention file, or arrest record, start with the Sonoma County arrest and mugshot hub and then contact Sheriff Records when needed.
  • For an adult warrant, use the official portal described on the Most Wanted Fugitives page, or call the Central Information Bureau.
  • For a recent arrest or citation event, check the Sheriff arrest log or the correct city agency. Those event sources do not by themselves prove current custody.
  • For release status or notification, use the current jail roster and VINELink. Neither supplies the final court outcome.
  • For a filed criminal case or disposition, contact Sonoma County Superior Court at 707-521-6500 or use its case portal.
  • For a sentenced California state prisoner, use CDCR's CIRIS locator. Its Identification Unit is 916-445-6713 on weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Pacific, excluding holidays.
  • For federal prison or immigration detention, use the Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System rather than the Sonoma jail search.
