Osage County Detention Center Bookings

The Osage County Detention Center is at 1315 Lynn Ave in Pawhuska. This is where all 72 hour booking records for the county are created. When someone is arrested by the Osage County Sheriff's Office or any local police department, they are brought here. Staff process the arrest by recording the person's name, charges, bond amount, and booking time. A photo and fingerprints are taken too.

The Sheriff's Office keeps booking records in an electronic system. The detention center has an online roster that is updated regularly with new bookings. You can also call 918-287-3131 to ask about a specific person. The non-emergency line goes to the Sheriff's Office, and staff can check the system for you. If you need records from an older booking, put in a written request and they will pull it from the archives.

Osage County Booking Records Under Oklahoma Law

Oklahoma's Open Records Act requires that 72 hour booking reports be made public. Under 51 O.S. 24A.8, the report must include the arrested person's name, the charges, and the date and time of the arrest. The Osage County Sheriff's Office follows this rule. Within three days of a booking, that information has to be available to anyone who asks for it.

Under 51 O.S. 24A.5, public bodies must allow inspection and copying of their records. This applies to the Osage County detention center and the Sheriff's Office. You can send a written request for specific booking records and they are required to respond. There is no need to give a reason for the request. Juvenile records and sealed cases are exceptions to this rule.

For criminal history searches that go beyond the 72 hour booking report, the OSBI CHIRP system covers the whole state. A search costs $15 and uses a name plus date of birth. CHIRP pulls from the state's fingerprint-based arrest database. If someone was booked in Osage County and also has records in other counties, CHIRP will show that broader history.
