Find Little Rock Jail Mugshots

Little Rock jail mugshots sit with the Pulaski County Sheriff because the city does not run its own jail. Every person booked by the Little Rock Police Department heads to the Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility on West Roosevelt Road, where the intake team takes the booking photo and logs the charges. The Zuercher Portal is the main search tool for Little Rock jail mugshots, and the county FOIA clerk can pull older records on request. Use this page to find the roster link, the LRPD records desk, and the full list of state tools that work with city arrests.

Little Rock Police Department and Jail Mugshots

The Little Rock Police Department is the largest city police force in Arkansas. Chief Heath Helton leads the agency. Over 500 sworn officers patrol the capital city. The LRPD headquarters sits at 615 West Markham Street, Little Rock, AR 72201. The non-emergency line is (501) 371-4829. The Records Division can be reached at (501) 371-4654 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays.

The city does not hold arrestees in a city jail. LRPD hands every booking over to the Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility for intake. That is why Little Rock jail mugshots live on the county roster and not on a city page. The LRPD site at littlerock.gov is the start point for city-level records and reports.

The LRPD mission centers on five words, TRUST, which stand for teamwork, respect, understanding, service, and transparency. The value set is called CONNECT. The force serves around 200,000 people across the city. Patrol, Criminal Investigations, Special Operations, Traffic, and Support Services divide the workload. Arrest reports are ready about 8 hours after a booking and cost $5 to $10 a copy.

Little Rock Police Department Records and Booking Photos

The LRPD Records Division is the first stop for incident reports, accident reports, and arrest reports tied to Little Rock jail mugshots. The desk is at 615 West Markham Street. Mail, walk-in, and online requests all work. Online reports go through CopLogic. Accident reports go through LexisNexis BuyCrash.

The Little Rock Police Department page links out to every records tool and the crime map. Use the page to reach the Telephone Reporting Unit at (501) 918-4397 when the case is minor and no suspect is on scene. Criminal and traffic history checks can be done in person at the records window.

Under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act (Arkansas Code Annotated § 25-19-101), LRPD has three business days to act on a written request. Most city arrest reports and booking photos are public. A copy fee of 25 cents per page is the cap. Files sent by email are often free.

Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility

Every Little Rock arrest is booked at 3201 West Roosevelt Road, Little Rock, AR 72204. The Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility opened in 1994. It is the largest county jail in Arkansas and holds more than 1,200 detainees each day. Twelve agencies feed arrests into the facility. Thirty-three courts use the site for custody work.

The detention page at pcso.org/detention holds the intake rules, the visit schedule, the bond desk hours, and the inmate services. The image below shows the current layout of that page.

Under Article 7 of the Arkansas Constitution, the county sheriff is the custodian of the county jail. Sheriff Eric Higgins runs the facility through the Detention Division. Aramark serves the meals. TurnKey Medical runs the clinic. Deputies work the pods in person under a direct supervision model. All of this is why Little Rock jail mugshots route through county staff and county systems.

Where to Search Little Rock Jail Mugshots Online

The main roster for Little Rock jail mugshots is the Pulaski County Zuercher Portal. Search by last name, first name, or booking number. Each hit shows the booking photo, the arrest date, the charges, the bond type, and the court date when set.

A second roster at pulaskijail.com carries the same data and works as a backup when the Zuercher site is slow. The page shows mugshots, race, date of birth, sex, arrest date, and charges. Both lists clear the person from the roster once release is final.

Tips for a clean search on either roster:

• Start with the last name by itself
• Add a first initial if the list is long
• Try any alias the person is known by
• Use the booking number for a direct hit
• Reset the filters between each search

Release data posts within a short window after the person walks out of the jail. If the record drops off the roster before you check it, file a FOIA request or check the VINELink feed for the last custody status.

Court Records Linked to Little Rock Arrests

Every Little Rock booking creates a court case on the 6th Judicial Circuit docket. You can pull that docket on Arkansas CourtConnect. Search by party name, case number, or ticket number. Results show the charges, the bond, the next court date, and the case history.

The Pulaski County District Court handles traffic tickets and misdemeanor work from LRPD. The Sixth Judicial Circuit Clerk handles felony cases and all trial-level civil work. Both courts post data to CourtConnect every night. The Arkansas Administrative Office of the Courts at 625 Marshall Street runs the system. The AOC help desk is (501) 410-1900.

Court data is a strong cross-check when a jail mugshot is no longer on the roster. The court file often names the booking number and the arrest date, which you can then send to the sheriff in a FOIA request to get the photo.

FOIA Requests for Little Rock Jail Mugshots

When a photo is off the roster, file a FOIA with the Pulaski County Sheriff. The county has a portal at pulaskicountysheriff.nextrequest.com. The site lets you submit the request, track the status, and get the file online.

A clean FOIA note to Pulaski County should include the full legal name, a date or date range of the booking, the arresting agency (LRPD in most city cases), and the records sought. State how you want the file, by email or mail. The sheriff has three business days to reply under Arkansas Code Annotated § 25-19-101.

If the sheriff denies the file, you have 30 days to appeal to the Arkansas Attorney General. The AG FOIA hotline is (501) 682-2007. The AG has 30 business days to rule. A ruling in your favor forces the sheriff to hand over the record within 10 business days.

State Tools That Work With Little Rock Jail Mugshots

The Arkansas Department of Correction inmate search picks up where the county roster ends. When a Little Rock case results in a state prison term, the person moves to an ADC unit. The ADC search shows the ADC number, the unit, the parole date, and the release date. A second state photo is taken at intake, so the ADC file may show a different face than the county booking shot.

The ark.org offender search is a mirror for the ADC data. The Arkansas Sex Offender Registry adds a map search by Little Rock address that pulls every registered offender within a 5-mile radius. The Arkansas Crime Information Center at 322 South Main Street, Suite 615, Little Rock, runs the state criminal history system. The ACIC phone is (501) 682-2222.

VINELink adds a free alert layer. Sign up at vinelink.com for text, email, or phone alerts on a Little Rock inmate. The Arkansas VINE line is 1-800-510-0415. The service covers over 2,900 jails in 48 states.
