About the Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center

Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center divides inmates into maximum, medium and minimum security levels, with 3,098 beds for adult male and female inmates.

Miami-Dade County is one of the largest counties in America and this facility is the biggest facility in the Miami-Dade County Corrections system. According to the County's reports, more than 80,000 inmates pass through this facility in the course of one year.

Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center is located at 13850 NW 41st St, Miami, FL 33178. The phone number for the facility is 786-263-5110. Inmates can be located through the Miami-Dade Inmate Search roster. Other inmate services for this facility can be found by scrolling down or clicking these links: Visitation, Mail, Inmate Phone contact, Inmate Money, Bail, and Commissary, and other information.

Because this jail was built in 1991, it has a more modern design that allows staff members to circulate in the open areas where inmates reside. They have more immediate supervisory access and direct interaction with inmates. However, inmate fights often break out, especially when there is overcrowding, which occurs frequently due to a backlog in the court system. There is inadequate staffing and the existing staff regularly works overtime and has been stressed to a level where they sometimes use more physical force with inmates than their training stipulates.

Proposals have been made to close this downtown facility and to build a new facility next to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, which is near residential neighborhoods, and there has been extensive opposition from the surrounding residents and from criminal justice reformers who object to the idea of planning for 2,000 inmate beds. The thought is that if you provide more beds, more people will be locked up.

Recent Bookings & Arrests

How do I find out if someone has been arrested and booked into the Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center?

To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center, call the jail’s booking line at 786-263-5110.

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.

Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center Booking Roster

What happens during booking in Miami-Dade County?

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 Miami-Dade 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.

What is the booking process like at the Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center?

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 Miami-Dade County and other Florida 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.

What kind of questions are asked during booking?

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.

What happens to an offender’s personal property during booking?

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.

What happens after booking?

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 Miami-Dade Metro West 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.

How long does the Miami-Dade Metro West Detention Center Booking process take?

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.
