To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Pima County Juvenile Detention Center, call the jail’s booking line at 520-724-2150.
There may be an automated method of looking them up by their name over the phone, or you may be directed to speak to someone at the jail. Sometimes the jail staff may ask you the offender’s date of birth to ensure privacy of the offender’s status.
Keep in mind that after an arrest, the information on an offender may not be publicly available for several hours.
If you don’t want to check up on an offender by calling the jail, you can also try looking up people recently booked online.
Pima County Juvenile Detention Center Booking Roster
After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Pima County for booking.
Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.
Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Pima County and other Arizona and USA jurisdictions.
If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.
It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.
The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.
During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.
Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.
At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.
If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Pima County Juvenile Detention Center will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.
Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.
Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.
If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.

1. Parents or legal guardians may visit during general visitation hours. Any other family member, or person over the age of 18, must have the permission of the detainee's Probation officer to visit during general visitation. Each youth is permitted seven visits per week, one visit per day, and two visitors per visitation session, unless restrictions apply.
2. All visitors must be registered and screened 20 - 45 minutes prior to the start of each general visitation session. Late arrivals will be turned away or must wait for next registration and screening period.
3. Visitation hours will not be extended beyond the regularly scheduled times. Families will be accommodated on a "first come, first served" basis. Due to seating limitations, some families may be turned away and asked to visit during a later session or on a different day.
4. For everyone's safety, children cannot be left unattended, either inside or outside of the Juvenile Court building. Please make childcare arrangements prior to your visit.
5. Visitors will be required to show a pictured identification before being allowed to visit.
6. Visitors will not be permitted to bring purses, backpacks, cell phones, pagers, electronic devices, books, magazines, tobacco products, drugs, weapons, etc., into the visitation area.

9. All visitors will be screened with a metal detector and will not be admitted into the visitation area if they do not pass the screening.
10. All visitors must be appropriately dressed. This includes, but is not limited to, shoes, shorts/pants, and shirt. Dress attire that is too revealing or that glorifies/promotes drugs, gangs, violence, or any type of socially unacceptable behavior will be considered inappropriate and a basis for denial of visitation.

Shorts no shorter than mid-thigh
Skirts and dresses are allowed but must be knee length
Sheer, see-through clothing is prohibited
Tops shall be no lower than the underarm in the front and back. Bare midriffs or strapless tops, tube tops, tank tops, body suits, muscle shirts, spandex or swimsuits are not permitted
