This is a private reference site, not a Monmouth County government office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release a detainee, post bail, schedule a visit, or obtain an official booking record for you. Those requests must go to the agency that controls the record or the person in custody.

MCPO handles indictable criminal prosecution and Criminal Justice Reform intake issues for many cases after arrest.
For the most common lookup problem, choose the channel that matches the custody or record type:
- Someone currently held at MCCI: start with jail inmate records and then call the jail if the online search is unavailable or unclear.
- Booking photos or mugshot questions: review jail roster mugshots and use MCSO OPRA when a photo is not public online.
- Charges filed after a Monmouth County arrest: use court records after a jail arrest, NJ Courts, and the prosecutor or municipal court where appropriate.
- Facility-specific visiting, mail, phone, and money questions: use the Monmouth County Correctional Institution page and confirm directly with MCCI before traveling.
- Sentenced state prisoners: use the New Jersey Department of Corrections offender search, not the MCCI roster.
- Federal or immigration custody: use the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator for BOP custody and ICE ODLS for immigration detention. New Jersey VINE is also available for custody notifications at 1-877-VINE-4-NJ.
