Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release an inmate, post bond, pull an official booking record, schedule a visit, or change a jail, court, or correctional record. Use the official Contra Costa County, California, state, federal, or immigration contacts below for those tasks.


Official Record Contacts

For current Contra Costa County jail custody, start with the sheriff's In-Custody Locator and the Martinez Detention Facility inmate information line. For official copies, released-person questions, police reports, or records that are no longer online, the Records & ID Unit is the local records fallback. Court dates, formal charges, warrants, dispositions, and criminal case records are handled by the Superior Court or District Attorney, not by this site.
