In Martin County, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office operates the county jail and maintains a public-facing custody lookup. The public-facing custody lookup tools comprise aJail Inmate Search page for people incarcerated in the Martin County Jail and a Recent Bookings page for arrests from the last 10 days.

How to Use the Martin County Jail Roster

To use the Martin County Jail roster:

  1. Visit the Martin County Sheriff’s Office website. Look for the corrections or quick-links section and select Jail Inmate Search.
  2. Open the inmate search page and enter the person’s name or ID number. Using a first and last name combination or the person’s ID number narrows down the search result.
  3. Click on a search result to view the inmate’s name, booking photograph, ID number, and demographics (e.g., race, gender, date of birth, hair/eye color, weight, and height). Each search result also includes booking details, such as booking number, arrest date/time, release date/time, charges, bond information (if applicable), and arresting agency.
  4. Review the result carefully.
  5. If needed, visit the separate Recent Bookings page. This page covers arrests from the last 10 days. However, this information is different from confirming whether someone is still in jail.
  6. If the online search does not provide the expected results, requesters may call the Department of Corrections at 772-220-7200 for further assistance.

Inmate Search by Jail Facility

The Martin County Sheriff’s Office maintains a single public jail roster, the Jail Inmate Search tool, for finding individuals incarcerated in the Martin County Jail. The Sheriff’s Office also provides a separate Recent Booking page that displays recent bookings in the county. However, this is not a separate facility roster.

Martin County also has one state-run facility: the Martin Correctional Institution located in Indiantown. Nonetheless, this facility does not run its own separate inmate roster page like the county jail does; instead, inmate information is handled through the statewide Florida Department of Corrections Offender Search.

Marin county does not maintain a county-operated juvenile jail roster. If you’re trying to obtain information about juvenile detention placements, depending on your eligibility, you may need to contact the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice rather than a public roster.
