Grant County 72 Hour Booking Law
Oklahoma law at 51 O.S. 24A.5 says that booking records must be public within 72 hours of arrest. Grant County follows this through its online jail management system and through the Sheriff's Office. The law applies to all arrests in the county, no matter which agency made the arrest. The core booking data, the name, charges, and bond, is always public for adult cases.
Juvenile records are not public under state law. Sealed and expunged cases are also removed from public view. But for regular adult arrests, the booking record must be shared when asked. Under 51 O.S. 24A.8, the jail must keep a detention register. Under 51 O.S. 24A.17, agencies that refuse to release public records face legal consequences. This protects your right to see Grant County booking records.
What Grant County Records Include
A Grant County booking record contains the arrested person's name, date of birth, and physical description. It shows every charge filed. The record lists the booking date and time, the arresting agency, and the bond amount if one was set. Some records also have a mugshot on file. You can get copies of these records from the Sheriff's Office in Medford.
Bond types vary. You might see cash bonds, surety bonds, or personal recognizance bonds. The judge sets the bond based on the charges and the person's risk of not showing up for court. More serious charges get higher bonds. Minor charges sometimes have no bond at all, and the person gets released right after booking. The booking record captures all of this information.
Note: If you need a certified copy of a Grant County booking record, contact the Sheriff's Office and ask about any fees that may apply.
