Official Richmond Record Contacts

Current RCJC custody and local booking-record questions belong with the Richmond City Sheriff's Office. The department lists its general line and Records Department separately. Public hours for the Records Department were not published in the reviewed source material, so confirm availability before visiting.

Police reports and incident-held records are a different route. Richmond Police Department lists a Records Unit, a FOIA contact, and its headquarters help desk. The published help-desk hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.; those hours are not a promise of records-processing availability.

Choose the Right Lookup Route

The agency that created or maintains a record is the best first contact.

• Use the Richmond City record hub for the RCJC roster, adult booking-photo request path, court follow-up, and custody-status resources.
• For a possible City warrant, contact the Richmond Magistrate at 804-646-6872, the related court, or counsel. The Most Wanted page explains the official safety and tip routes.
• For an RPD incident report, use the Police Department records or FOIA contacts above. The listed mail-report procedure is $5, but that fee does not set a booking-photo fee.
• For sentenced state custody or supervision, use the VADOC Inmate & Supervisee Locator.
• For federal or immigration detention, use the official BOP locator or ICE detainee locator, which cover different populations from RCJC.
