Why can’t I find someone in the roster?
They may be released, booked under another name, housed elsewhere, or the roster hasn’t updated yet. Check the booking log and consider a Sheriff records request.
Are DUI/DWI arrests included?
If booked into the jail, they typically appear on the roster or booking log. The full DUI report usually requires a Sheriff records request.
