Minnesota Counties

Minnesota has 87 counties, and each one runs its own jail through the county sheriff's office. Every jail keeps 24 hour booking records that log arrests, charges, bail amounts, and custody status. Most counties post their jail roster online so you can search for inmates by name. The sheriff's office in each county handles booking, detention, and release.
