How Siloam Springs Bookings Work

A Siloam Springs officer makes the arrest and moves the person to the Benton County Detention Center in Bentonville. The intake team runs the prints, takes the mugshot, and logs the charges. A judge sets the bond. Most misdemeanor cases clear within hours.

Felony cases wait for a first appearance before a circuit judge. The mugshot is locked in at intake, which is why the photo is live on the roster before the bond is set. A new mugshot is taken if the same person is booked again on a new case.
