Custody and Booking Records

The Records Division handles requests for an existing arrest report, booking sheet, or releasable booking photograph. The Detention Center is the direct route for a current custody question.

The proper contact depends on which agency created the item. Confirm the custodian before sending personal details or money.

- Call the Chatham County Clerk of Superior Court at 919-545-3500 for court filings and disposition records.

Emergency and Safety Matters
Call 911 for an emergency. Do not use a site message to report an active crime, submit a wanted-person tip, or request urgent protection. The Sheriff’s official tip form and phone lines are the right channels for law-enforcement information.
