2. Searching the Duval roster

Duval County Inmate Search shows location, charges and bond. Sentenced or longer-stay inmates may be moved to another JSO facility, so check the housing field. VINELink can alert you to a move or release. The JSO site may be down now and then; if it won't load, look the person up on VINELink instead.

3. First appearance and bond in Jacksonville

Duval is the Fourth Judicial Circuit. Each arrestee sees a judge within 24 hours, usually over video from the jail.

  • ROR, where the signature is the only promise required.
  • Cash, the entire bond, returned through the clerk after the case minus costs.
  • Surety, through a bondsman whose 10 percent fee, $100 minimum per charge, stays with them.

A Nassau, St. Johns or Georgia warrant, or a probation hold, can keep someone in after bond. Missing court means a warrant. See our Duval bail guide.

4. Is someone from the Beaches or Baldwin held on Adams Street on a warrant?

Probably. The downtown Pretrial Detention Facility is where JSO books warrant pickups from the Beaches, Baldwin and every neighborhood in between. The jail line, 904-630-0500, confirms custody. Any capias is visible in the clerk's CORE docket. FDLE's statewide wanted persons roster lists warrants released elsewhere. When the warrant is yours, a defense attorney can arrange a surrender on a set day, often with a bond motion already filed. The Sheriff's Office posts visiting rules and inmate lookups on its site to help families plan.

13. ICE detainers at the Duval jail

  • JSO runs a 287(g) Jail Enforcement Model, so ICE-trained officers screen immigration status at booking.
  • An I-247A detainer may follow.
  • The Pretrial Detention Facility may hold the person awaiting federal transfer up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released (8 CFR 287.7(d)).
  • F.S. 908.105: the bond judge is told, the detainer is filed in the case, and prosecutors are notified.
  • F.S. 907.041: JSO can't let a forcible-felony suspect without lawful status out before first appearance, and the judge begins by presuming detention, which the defense can challenge.
  • F.S. 908.11: 287(g) is required for jail sheriffs; JSO also has the Task Force Model.
  • To locate a Jacksonville relative, use ICE's detainee search or call the Miami field office, 2805 SW 145th Ave., Miramar, FL 33027, 954-843-5800.

14. Transfer to state prison

A prison sentence in Duval is followed by a stay in a JSO jail until a Corrections bus arrives. Classification at a reception center comes next. Track progress on FDC's website, and find prison addresses here.

15. Duval mugshots

Request booking photos from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, 904-630-0500. Florida treats most as public; F.S. 119.071 exempts some.

Photos ICE took come through its FOIA office. The federal government keeps its own booking pictures closed, though the Marshals sometimes post a wanted fugitive's.
