To search the St. Lucie County Jail for an inmate and review their charges, bond, visitation eligibility, or mugshot, go to the Official Jail Inmate Roster.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement keeps a wanted persons search that covers St. Lucie County, and many clerks of court share criminal case records online.

St. Lucie County Jail Inmate Search

In St. Lucie County and throughout Florida, most people charged with a crime can be released before trial on reasonable conditions, as the state constitution requires. Release can be denied for capital or life felonies when the proof is evident, or when no conditions would keep the community safe. Minor misdemeanors and traffic offenses often end with a notice to appear. Other bond amounts start from the Florida Supreme Court’s uniform statewide bond schedule.

You can find out an inmate’s bail by calling the St. Lucie County Jail at 772-462-3450. If you know the charge, the Florida uniform statewide bond schedule for 2026 shows the minimum bond. Each judicial circuit can require more, and some serious charges require a first appearance hearing before release. The county accepts cash, surety bonds, or property bonds, and may release some offenders on personal recognizance.

The St. Lucie County Jail is licensed for 1400 inmates at a time, but it often has to make room for many more offenders, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in Florida, at least 35-40% of the inmate population turns over monthly. Another 25-30% turns over every 90 days and another 15-20% every six months, and approximately 8-9% stay six to twelve months. Inmates who remain longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county are held at one of the St. Lucie County facilities much longer.

Each year, St. Lucie County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 29,000 offenders.
