  • For someone in city jail custody, start with jail inmate records and NYC DOC.
  • For booking-photo questions, review jail roster mugshots and DOC FOIL.
  • For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Queens court clerk route.
  • For a facility, use the detention facility pages listed in the footer.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the New York DOCCS locator or DOCCS phone route.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use BOP, USMS, or ICE rather than NYC DOC.
