This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody or has been released, pull an official booking record, release a person, or post bond. Contact the public office responsible for the record.

The MCSO Public Records page explains in-person and mailed requests under Florida Statutes Chapter 119. A mailed report request needs a self-addressed stamped envelope and $1 per report. The Sheriff does not publish a separate booking-photo price, an electronic-delivery fee, or a guaranteed response time on that page. The online Public Records Center is the alternate route for submitting and tracking a request.
Choose the office based on the record or custody stage:
- For a booking record or intake photo, start with the Sheriff’s arrest inquiry and Records Section routes described on the home page.
- For a new county booking, check the Daily Arrest Report and call Central Jail booking if the online view has not caught up.
- For several days of entries, consult the Weekly Arrest Log.
- For release or transfer alerts, follow the VINELink Inmate Check process.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Florida Department of Corrections offender search.
- For federal or immigration detention, use the federal Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator.
- For an underlying city police report, contact Bradenton, Palmetto, or Holmes Beach police when that department made the arrest.
