Scott County Busted Mugshots is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, post bond, release anyone, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that controls the record for those services.
Where to Look
The correct contact depends on the type and stage of the record.
- For a mugshot, booking record, current jail question, release information, or local arrest report, start with the home records hub and the Scott County Law Enforcement Center.
- For a possible warrant or a public returned-warrant record, follow Sheriff's Most Wanted to the court and LEC verification routes.
- For a recent arrest or weekly police and sheriff report, use the sources described on the home page and Mugshots in the News.
- For a person sentenced to Kansas prison, use the Kansas Department of Corrections KASPER offender search. It is separate from county jail custody.
- For federal prison custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator. Immigration detention is handled through the ICE detainee locator.
Scott County Jail Records
