Understanding Kent County Roster Record Fields

Booking ID & Date:

The unique institutional identifier assigned at initial intake. This booking number is required by facility kiosks, mail handlers, and commissary vendors to route funds and letters to the detainee.

Charges & Allegations:

Statutory offenses recorded from the arresting officer's intake report. In accordance with constitutional due process, charges represent formal allegations; every individual is legally presumed innocent.

Custody Status & Bond:

"In custody" denotes current physical holding in Kent County Correctional Facility. Bond figures are set by county bond schedules or presiding judges. Blank bond amounts indicate non-bondable holds or pending magistrate hearings.

Cannot Find Someone on This Active Roster?

If an individual was recently arrested but does not appear in the search results above, follow these verification steps:

  • Intake Processing Window: Arrestees undergoing initial booking, medical screening, and LiveScan fingerprinting are generally not indexed to public internet rosters until initial classification is completed.
  • Municipal Police Department Holds: Individuals arrested by local city police departments may be held temporarily at municipal holding cells before transfer to the primary county jail.
  • Facility Transfer or Pretrial Release: Detainees who have posted bond, received pretrial release, or been transferred to state prison (DOC) facilities are automatically removed from active county detention rosters.
  • Direct Facility Verification: For real-time intake confirmation, contact the Kent County Correctional Facility booking desk directly at (616) 632-6400.
