Pulaski County Jail Overview
Pulaski County Sheriff's Office
The Pulaski County Sheriff's Office runs the jail, the patrol unit, and the records division. The main office sits at 2900 S. Woodrow St., Little Rock, AR 72204. The main phone line is (501) 340-6600. Sheriff Eric S. Higgins leads the agency. Office hours for in-person visits are Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
A quick look at the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office site shows the layout of the public portal.
The home page links to the inmate roster, records requests, sex offender info, and contact data for each sheriff's office unit.
The Records Division keeps arrest records, incident reports, and crash reports for the county. Staff can pull a file by name or by date. Copies cost $0.25 per page for plain paper copies. A certified copy is $5.00 per document. The division can handle walk-in requests, mail requests, and some email requests. Call ahead to confirm what you need before you drive over.
The sheriff also works with over 30 District, Circuit, and Federal courts that feed cases to the county jail. The Court Liaison Office makes sure every new booking is seen by a judge within the time frame state law allows. That tight link between the jail and the courts is why Pulaski County Busted Mugshots often come with a court date already set.
Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility
The Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility is the largest county jail in Arkansas. It opened in 1994. The facility is at 3201 West Roosevelt Road, Little Rock, AR 72204. The main jail line is (501) 340-7001. The jail holds pre-trial and sentenced inmates for Pulaski and takes in holds from state and federal agencies as well.
Here is a peek at the Pulaski County Detention page.
The page has info on booking, visit rules, bonds, and ways to get in touch with an inmate.
Each person booked into the jail goes through intake. Staff take front and side booking photos. They log the charge, the arresting agency, the bond, and the date. That data loads to the public inmate roster. A person can sit at the jail on a city arrest, a sheriff arrest, or a state hold. All of them show up the same way in the roster.
The jail houses people waiting for court, those serving short sentences, and some who are waiting to move to state prison. Once a person moves to state custody, the file shifts to the Arkansas DOC Inmate Search for the longer sentence.
Note: The detention center covers Pulaski County bookings only. For out-of-county or state cases, check the Arkansas DOC site or the sheriff for the arresting county.
Pulaski County Busted Mugshots Inmate Roster
The sheriff's online inmate roster is the fastest way to find current Pulaski County Busted Mugshots. You can search by name or by arrest date. The roster shows a list of recent bookings with mugshot, name, race, sex, date of birth, arrest date, and the arresting agency.
The Pulaski County inmate roster portal is hosted on the Zuercher portal.
You can filter by name or by date to find a match. Each record links to the full booking page.
Each booking record shows:
- Full name and any aliases
- Booking photo or mugshot
- Charge or charges filed
- Arrest date and booking date
- Bond type and bond amount
- Hold agency if the person is held for another court
The data on the roster is for current Pulaski County inmates only. It does not go back in time. For older arrests or released inmates, you need to ask the Records Division. Use the Arkansas FOIA to put the ask in writing if the phone or email route is slow. The agency has three business days under Arkansas Code § 25-19-105 to respond.
The roster is a Pulaski County tool. It does not link to other county jails or state prison. If a person was booked elsewhere, pick the right county page to find that local sheriff's roster.
Pulaski County Court Records on CourtConnect
Once a case is filed after the arrest, Pulaski County court records land on CourtConnect. The Arkansas Judiciary runs this tool. It covers both the Pulaski County Circuit Court and the Pulaski County District Court-Little Rock Department. The system is free to search and covers filings from January 1, 2009 forward for most parts of the county.
Try a run on the Arkansas CourtConnect portal.
Run a name search or a case number search. The result page has charges, court dates, and docket notes.
CourtConnect does not have mugshots. It has the case that the mugshot is tied to. A person booked at the jail will often have a District Court case for a misdemeanor or a Circuit Court case for a felony. The case number on the inmate roster matches the case number on CourtConnect. That link lets you see both sides of the story.
For certified copies of court records, you need the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk. The clerk's office can pull the full file, print out the paper copy, and add a court seal. Plain copies are cheap. Certified ones cost more. Call before you go to check the fee and the hours.
