Search San Juan County Inmate Records

San Juan County inmate records are searched through the county jail roster for people booked into local custody, including current detainees and past detainee entries that remain in the public lookup. A San Juan County jail roster search can help confirm whether a person is in county detention, which housing facility appears on the record, and whether the record points to bond, court, or release information. To look up San Juan County inmates online, start with the official county inquiry, then use court, state prison, federal, immigration, and notification channels when the person is not listed locally.

San Juan County Jail Roster

The official local search channel is the San Juan County Adult Detention Center Detainee Inquiry. The county Adult Detention Center page describes it as the place to see booking information for current and past detainees, including booking, charges, bonding, and mugshots. The platform is Tyler Technologies NewWorld.InmateInquiry. No login was observed in the research, and the form is open to public users.

San Juan County also posts a clear warning about outside arrest and mugshot sites. The Adult Detention Center says the official Detainee Inquiry is the only place where the county publicly posts detainee information. It also says unaffiliated pages may copy public data, but the county does not endorse them and cannot remove information once it appears outside the official inquiry. That matters for San Juan County inmate records because the roster is the county source, while copied pages may be stale, incomplete, or harder to correct.

The roster is a county jail and alternative-sentencing lookup, not a statewide prison search. It covers people posted by the San Juan County Adult Detention Center and the San Juan County Alternative Sentencing Division. A person sentenced to state prison moves into New Mexico Corrections Department custody and should be searched through NMCD. A federal sentence, U.S. Marshals hold, or immigration detention uses a different path.


Use San Juan County Inmate Search

A useful San Juan County inmate records search starts broad, then narrows. If the booking number or subject number is unknown, search by name first. The result table uses a last-name-first format, so spelling and middle names may affect what appears. For a person who may have been released, remove current-custody-only filtering and use booking dates instead of assuming the person was never booked.

  1. Open the official Detainee Inquiry, not a third-party arrest page or copied mugshot listing.
  2. Enter the person's name, or use the subject number or booking number if that identifier is known.
  3. Keep the In Custody box checked for a current jail search, or broaden the date range when looking for a past booking.
  4. Use the Housing Facility dropdown to separate the Adult Detention Center from the Alternative Sentencing Division.
  5. Review the result row for photo, custody status, scheduled release date, race, gender, date of birth, multiple-booking status, and housing facility.
  6. Open the detail page to read booking history, bond rows, charges, court room labels, docket numbers, dispositions, crime class, and arresting agency fields.

Recent arrests may not appear before intake and data entry are complete. The county does not publish a refresh interval, so avoid treating a missing result as proof of release. Search again later, clear narrow filters, and use the ADC general information line for procedural questions. For documents beyond the roster, use the county public-records request channel.


San Juan County Roster Fields

The San Juan County jail roster form exposes several useful fields. Some are identifiers, some are date filters, and one controls whether the search is limited to people who are still in custody. The housing filter is locally important because San Juan County has both the Adult Detention Center and the Alternative Sentencing Division in the same public inquiry.

Field LabelTypeRequiredNotes
NameTextUnspecifiedSearch by detainee name; results display names in Last, First Middle format.
Subject NumberTextUnspecifiedOptional identifier when known; no public format rule was found.
Booking NumberTextUnspecifiedOptional booking identifier; useful when copied from a prior record.
In CustodyCheckboxDefault checkedLimits the search to current detention when selected.
Booking From DateDate text/date pickerDefault presentUse a known booking window; captured URLs use MM/DD/YYYY formatting.
Booking To DateDate text/date pickerDefault presentPairs with the start date when searching a past booking range.
Housing FacilityDropdownOptionalOptions include San Juan County Adult Detention Center and San Juan County Alternative Sentencing Division.

The Search and Clear buttons are the only button labels captured in the research. No public text showed advanced tabs, payment walls, or an account requirement. The county says the roster can show current and past detainees, but it does not publish an exact retention period for old booking entries.


San Juan County Inmate Profiles

A sample San Juan County detainee detail page shows why the profile view matters. Search results give a quick status check, but the detail record adds booking history, bond and bail totals, charge rows, court labels, and disposition fields. The sample also showed a Photos section with more than one timestamped image link, which means a profile may have more detail than the small result thumbnail.

FieldWhat It Shows
PhotoThumbnail in search results and timestamped photo links on some detail profiles.
Name and demographicsName, date of birth, age, gender, race, and city/state/ZIP style address data when posted.
In CustodyYes or No result-column status for current detention.
Scheduled Release DateRelease date field when populated; blank fields should not be read as a promise of release.
Housing FacilityAdult Detention Center or Alternative Sentencing Division placement.
Booking HistoryBooking date, release date, housing facility, total bond amount, and total bail amount.
Bond Type / AmountPer-row bond entries, including hold language such as HOLD PENDING when present.
ChargesCharge number, description, offense date, crime class, and attempt/commit field.
Court Room and DocketMagistrate or District court labels and docket numbers when listed.
DispositionStatus such as Pending, Sentenced, or Dismissed, with dates when entered.
Arresting AgencyAgency or incident-like value attached to the charge row.

Booking charges can differ from the final court charge. The jail profile may list an arrest charge, warrant hold, remand order, or early case label. Formal case events are better checked through the New Mexico court system, especially when a docket number appears on the jail record. Court filing details after booking are covered on the San Juan County court records after jail arrest page.


San Juan County Access Channels

The full search chain is broader than the roster. Use the county inquiry first for local jail custody, then move to records requests, state prison, federal custody, immigration detention, and notification systems when the facts point away from the Adult Detention Center. San Juan County's own research notes that detainee information is posted through the online lookup, so phone and counter channels are best for routing, procedures, property, money, and record-request help rather than replacing the public database.

  • County roster: use Tyler Detainee Inquiry for Adult Detention Center and Alternative Sentencing detainee records.
  • ADC phone: call (505) 566-4500 for general jail questions, lobby routing, and procedural help.
  • In person: use the ADC lobby at 871 Andrea Drive in Farmington for property, kiosk, money-order, and visitor-related business during posted weekday access.
  • Public records: submit county or sheriff records requests through the San Juan County JustFOIA portal when a document, video, policy, or non-roster record is needed.
  • State prison: use the NMCD Offender Search after a state sentence or probation/parole placement.
  • Federal or immigration custody: use BOP, U.S. Marshals or federal court channels, and ICE ODLS depending on the custody type.
  • Notification: use VINELink through NMCD Victim Services where registration is available for custody or release notifications.

No public San Juan County sheriff inmate-search app was located in the research. An internal sheriff warrant app exists for deputies, and the county has a Clean-Up San Juan County app for illegal dumping, but neither is a public inmate roster. New Mexico Courts Case Lookup does have iOS and Android apps, but those are court-search tools, not jail custody apps.


County, State, and Federal Records

San Juan County inmate records can change systems as the case moves. A person first booked after arrest is usually a county detainee. If the court imposes a state prison sentence, the person may transfer into NMCD custody and disappear from the current county roster. If a federal agency is involved, the county roster may show only a temporary local booking, or it may show nothing if the person is housed elsewhere.

Custody TypeWhere to LookWhat It Covers
Pretrial or local sentenceSan Juan County Detainee InquiryADC and Alternative Sentencing public booking, bond, charge, and mugshot records.
Sentenced state prisonerNew Mexico Corrections DepartmentState prison, probation, and parole records. NMCD says it does not cover county or city jails.
Federal sentenced prisonerFederal BOP Inmate LocatorFederal inmates from 1982 to present, with release-date cautions.
Federal pretrial custodyU.S. Marshals, federal court, or housing facilityPeople held for federal court before BOP designation.

NMCD's search asks for first and/or last name or an NMCD number and includes filters such as offender status, region, and age range. Adult Prison Division data updates nightly, while probation and parole information updates in real time. NMCD asks users to verify location or legal status with the institution or supervision office because offenders move.


San Juan County Jail Contacts

The primary jail is in Farmington, not at the sheriff's main Aztec office. The ADC is the contact point for county custody, property, commissary, and visitation routing. The Alternative Sentencing Division is a related minimum-security and program-based custody setting that appears as a housing filter in the public roster.

San Juan County Adult Detention Center

871 Andrea Drive

Farmington, NM 87401

(505) 566-4500

Lobby access is posted for weekdays; confirm current start time because county source text showed two weekday opening times.

San Juan County Alternative Sentencing Division / DWI and Axis Detention Facility

1006 Municipal Drive

Farmington, NM 87401

(505) 325-1720; DWI and Axis (505) 325-1321

Minimum-security treatment, compliance, and court-authorized alternative-sentencing programs.

The sheriff's main Aztec office is separate from the jail. Sheriff R. Shane Ferrari's office handles law enforcement, warrants, transport, and records channels, while the Adult Detention Center is the county source for detainee postings.


San Juan County Booking Records

Local sources do not publish a full intake manual, but the public fields show the main steps. A typical custody path is arrest or court remand, transport to the Adult Detention Center or an authorized program, intake, booking record creation, photo, demographic entry, housing assignment, bond or hold entry, and later court action. The public sees those outputs once they are entered and posted in the county inquiry.

Some information is intentionally not public. Medical information is confidential and protected under HIPAA, and the ADC directs medical questions to the medical services provider at (505) 566-4545. Public records may also be redacted under New Mexico IPRA, law-enforcement-record exceptions, protected identifier rules, or arrest-record confidentiality rules. That is why the online profile can be useful but still incomplete.

Booking
The jail intake record created after arrest, court remand, or commitment.
Hold Pending
A bond or custody entry showing that release may depend on court or agency action.
Detainer
Another agency's request or hold that may keep a person in custody.
Disposition
A court status or outcome such as pending, dismissed, sentenced, or another case result.
NMCD
The New Mexico Corrections Department, which covers state prison, probation, and parole, not county jail custody.

San Juan County Visitation Rules

San Juan County's captured ADC visitation rule is direct: all detainee visits must be scheduled and conducted online. The county FAQ says children can visit a detainee through online visitation scheduled through GettingOut. The research did not locate a public day-by-day pod schedule, so a specific calendar should not be assumed. Use the county's visitation phone line and the scheduling vendor for current time slots.

Visit TypeScheduling ChannelPublished ScheduleNotes

Visitation scheduling assistance is listed at (505) 516-0115. Confirm custody and scheduling before making plans, because housing, court transport, medical status, or discipline can affect whether a visit can occur.


Mail, Calls, and Commissary

Mail and money rules are part of a complete San Juan County inmate records search because a confirmed roster result often leads to contact or deposit questions. Mail must be addressed to the detainee at 871 Andrea Drive, Farmington, NM 87401, with the sender's full name and address and the detainee's first and last name on the envelope. Only plain white paper and plain white envelopes are accepted. Stamps must be bought through commissary, and religious books must be requested through chaplain coordinators rather than dropped off.

Money orders are accepted at the commissary window on weekdays, and the lobby kiosk accepts cash, credit, or debit cards during regular lobby hours. TouchPay Direct handles phone and online deposits, using the detainee's first and last name and CHJ number, with facility site number 287401. I Care handles commissary orders. For phone calls, the ADC lists collect, debit through commissary, and Advance Pay through ConnectNetwork; official text contains both (800) 483-8314 and (800) 844-6591 for provider billing or blocking issues, so verify the current provider path before paying.

Note: Confirm current custody, housing, and provider instructions with the ADC before sending money, property, or time-sensitive legal mail.
