Mustang Jail Roster Lookup
Mustang jail roster records show who has been booked and held in custody through the city's law enforcement system. The Mustang Police Department handles arrests in the city, but it does not run a long-term jail. Instead, people who are arrested in Mustang get transferred to the Canadian County Detention Center in El Reno. That means searching for a Mustang jail roster entry usually starts with the county inmate search tool. You can look up current inmates, see their charges, and find out bond details all from one place online. This page covers how to search, what you will find, and where to go for records.
Mustang Overview
Mustang Jail Roster Search
There is no standalone Mustang jail roster website. The city does not keep a public list of inmates on its own site. All people arrested in Mustang are held briefly and then moved to the Canadian County Detention Center. The county jail is in El Reno at 304 N. Evans. Once there, the inmate shows up on the Canadian County inmate search page.
The Canadian County inmate search tool shows everyone who is currently in custody. You can search by name. Each result lists the booking date, charges filed, and other basic details. The list is sorted by booking date so the most recent arrests show first. There is also a feature to view inmates released in the last 72 hours, which can help if someone was recently let go and you want to confirm it. The jail roster gets updated as bookings happen, so it stays close to real time. If the person you are looking for was arrested in Mustang within the past day or two, they should appear on the county roster once they have been processed at the detention center.
Note: Mustang inmates may not appear on the county roster until they have been fully processed at the Canadian County Detention Center in El Reno.
How Arrests Work in Mustang
The Mustang Police Department is at 650 E State Hwy 152. It has patrol, administration, and records divisions. When officers make an arrest, the person goes to a short-term holding area first. Mustang does not run a full jail. The city relies on Canadian County for all longer detention. This setup is common for smaller cities in Oklahoma.
After being booked locally, the inmate transfers to the Canadian County Detention Center. That jail has a capacity of 194 beds. The average daily population is around 300 inmates, which means the facility regularly holds more people than its rated capacity. Due to this overcrowding, some inmates get housed in jails in Grant, Dewey, Washita, Ellis, or Pottawatomie County. If you cannot find someone on the Canadian County roster, it is worth checking those other counties too. The jail administrator is David Moore, and you can reach the detention center at 405-422-3188 for questions about a specific inmate.
Oklahoma Open Records Law
Jail roster data in Mustang falls under state law. Title 51 Section 24A.8 of the Oklahoma statutes covers public access to records held by law enforcement. This includes booking logs, arrest records, and inmate information. The law says these records are open to the public unless a specific exemption applies.
Arrest records and jail roster entries are not the same as conviction records. An arrest just means someone was taken into custody. It does not mean they were found guilty. The jail roster lists people who are in custody right now or were recently. Court records, which you can look up on OSCN, show what happened after the arrest in terms of charges, hearings, and outcomes. Under Title 57 Section 48, the state also sets rules for how jails must keep and report inmate data.
Note: Juvenile arrest records and expunged records are not available through public roster searches.
Statewide Databases for Mustang
Several state-level tools can help when you are looking for someone arrested in Mustang. The Oklahoma Department of Corrections offender search covers people who have been sentenced to state prison. It will not show someone sitting in the county jail waiting for trial, but it is useful for checking on people after conviction. The OSBI CHIRP system provides criminal history information through the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.
The Oklahoma VINE system is another key tool. VINE stands for Victim Information and Notification Everyday. It tracks custody status changes and sends alerts by phone, email, or text. You can register to get notified when an inmate is transferred or released. The toll-free number for VINE is 877-654-8463. This is especially helpful for victims of crime who need to know when someone leaves custody.
For court records tied to a Mustang arrest, check ODCR as well. On Demand Court Records gives free access to case filings, docket entries, and hearing dates across Oklahoma courts.
Getting Records from Mustang Police
You can request records directly from the Mustang Police Department. The records division is at 650 E State Hwy 152, Mustang, OK 73064. Call 405-376-7733 or email mustang_pd@cityofmustang.org. Most police reports are available to the public under the Open Records Act, though some information may be redacted for ongoing investigations or privacy reasons.

Visitation at Canadian County Jail
If someone you know was arrested in Mustang and is now at the Canadian County Detention Center, you can visit them. Visitation takes place on Saturdays only. The hours are 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Each inmate gets one visit per week, and that visit lasts 15 minutes. You will need to bring a valid photo ID.
The Canadian County jail has been dealing with overcrowding for years. With 194 beds and around 300 inmates on any given day, space is tight. Some inmates are moved to other county facilities across the state. If you try to visit and are told the person is no longer there, check with the jail at 405-422-3188 to find out where they were transferred. The Canadian County jail information page has more details on rules, mail, and how to send money to an inmate.
Other Ways to Search Mustang Jail Roster Records
Beyond the official county search, a few third-party sites list Mustang and Canadian County jail roster information. RecentlyBooked.com updates several times a day with new bookings and covers the last 30 days. You can filter and search their list. JailExchange also has a Canadian County page with mugshot searches, bond info, and charge details.
These third-party sites pull from public data. They can be useful, but always confirm what you find with the official county source. Data on third-party sites may lag behind real-time changes at the jail.
The screenshot below shows the Oklahoma Department of Corrections offender lookup portal, which can be used to search for inmates who have been transferred from county jail to state prison after sentencing.
This tool covers state-level inmates and is separate from the Canadian County jail roster, which focuses on people currently held at the county detention center.
