Jenks Jail Roster Search
Jenks jail roster records can be tracked through the Jenks Police Department and the Tulsa County Inmate Information Center. The city operates a small municipal lockup at 211 N. Elm Street for temporary holds, but most people arrested in Jenks get transferred to the Tulsa County Jail for longer detention. That means searching for someone arrested in Jenks usually starts with the county system. This page covers the online search tools, phone contacts, records request steps, and statewide databases available for looking up Jenks jail roster information.
Jenks Overview
Jenks Jail Roster Online Search
Since Jenks transfers inmates to the Tulsa County Jail, the Tulsa County Inmate Information Center is the main tool for searching Jenks jail roster data. You can search by the person's full name or by booking ID. The system returns custody status, charges, booking details, bond amounts, and expected release dates. A desk blotter report is also updated daily. Partial name searches work if you are not sure of the exact spelling.
The David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center at 300 North Denver Avenue in Tulsa is where Jenks inmates end up after their initial hold at the city lockup. This is a medium to maximum security facility run by the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office. It houses male and female detainees awaiting trial, serving short sentences, or held for other reasons. When someone is booked in, they go through a full search before being assigned to a housing unit. The jail information line is (918) 596-8950.
The statewide ODOC offender search covers state prison inmates if someone arrested in Jenks was later sentenced and transferred to a state correctional facility.
