This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, accept bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the government office responsible for the record.


Find the Right Kent Office

Kent County divides arrest, booking, custody, court, and later corrections information among several offices. For a KCSO-created report, write or visit the Sheriff. For current local detention, use the Kent County Detention Center’s automated phone system. Verify routing before sending a request because the arresting agency may be Chestertown Police, Rock Hall Police, Maryland State Police, or another agency.

Choose the source that matches the question:

  • For a mugshot or booking record, follow the official agency and PIA request path on the Kent County recent-arrests home page.
  • For warrant or court context, use KCSO and the Kent court clerks. Do not treat a web result as proof of an active warrant.
  • For someone just arrested, call KCDC for current local custody and use the Arrest Log to understand the limits of news coverage.
  • For a release or transfer alert, use Maryland VINE and confirm urgent facts with the facility or appropriate victim-services office.
  • For Kent County Detention Center questions, use the automated facility line rather than a municipal office.
  • For a sentenced person in covered Maryland state custody, use the Maryland DPSCS Incarcerated Individual Locator.
  • For federal or immigration detention, use the official BOP or ICE locator that matches the custody authority.

Call 911 for an emergency. This site cannot relay urgent information to KCSO, KCDC, a court, or another agency.
