Official Calaveras County Inmate Search
The official current Calaveras County inmate records channel is Citizen RIMS Incarcerated People. The sheriff homepage links Citizen RIMS as the public portal for daily bulletins, crime charts, arrests, inmates, security camera registration, and patrol requests. The inmate route covers people held in the Calaveras County Detention Center and identifies them as both pretrial and post-trial offenders.
Citizen RIMS is not a court docket, a mugshot gallery, or a state prison locator. It is the county jail roster. If the person has been sentenced to CDCR, use CDCR CIRIS. If federal or immigration custody is possible, use BOP or ICE. If the question is about charges filed by the prosecutor after arrest, use the Calaveras Superior Court Odyssey Portal rather than treating the booking record as the final court charge record.
The Citizen RIMS public portal is the sheriff-linked starting point for Calaveras County inmate records and recent arrest information.
The portal view matters because it is the local gateway before moving to the more specific incarcerated-people and arrests routes.
Use the Calaveras County Jail Roster
The Calaveras County jail roster is easiest to use when the search starts with the person's current custody status, then moves outward. A missing roster entry does not always mean there was no arrest. The person may have been released, booked under a different spelling, excluded by public-record limits, transferred, or not yet indexed in the public portal.
- Open the sheriff homepage and select Citizen RIMS, or go straight to the incarcerated-people route.
- Read the agency disclaimer. The public portal warns that records may not be complete or timely and excludes sensitive or juvenile information.
- Open the Incarcerated People list for the Calaveras County Detention Center.
- Review the record fields: name, age, sex, race, booking date and time, arrest location, booking agency, charges, status, bail, and total bail.
- If the person is not listed, call the Detention Center at (209) 754-6499, search recent arrests, file a records request, check the court portal, or use CDCR, BOP, ICE, and VINELink as needed.
Note: The roster inspection found no public mugshots, no date of birth, no real address, no housing pod, and no court date in the sample API records.
Calaveras County Roster Fields
Citizen RIMS is a JavaScript list route backed by an API. The research inspection found an agency configuration for Calaveras County Sheriff's Office with agency ID 282. The public inmate list appears to load records through paging parameters rather than a simple last-name form exposed in static HTML. That makes the roster useful for browsing current custody, but not the same as a statewide criminal-history search.
| Field or Control | Type | Required | Calaveras County Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Incarcerated People route | JavaScript list route | No visible required field | Direct route for current jail inmates, no login found |
| agencyId | API parameter | Yes | 282 for Calaveras County Sheriff's Office |
| limit | API parameter | Used by app | Controls page size |
| offset | API parameter | Used by app | Controls paging position |
| Photos | Configuration | Not applicable | inmatesPhotosEnabled=false |
| Date of birth | Configuration | Not applicable | DOB disabled; age is shown instead |
What Calaveras County Jail Records Show
A Calaveras County jail record is a booking and custody record, not a complete criminal history. It can show arrest charges and bail amounts, but those charges may change after District Attorney review. It can show the booking agency and original arresting agency, which helps distinguish a sheriff arrest from an Angels Camp Police Department arrest. It also uses public physical descriptors, but it does not show the person's real address.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking ID and person ID | Internal record numbers tied to the jail booking and person record. |
| Booking agency and arresting agency | Agency codes such as CCSO or ACPD. |
| Booking and arrest dates | Separate booking time and original arrest time when entered. |
| Name and descriptors | Full name, age, sex, race, height, weight, hair, eyes, build, and complexion. |
| Status | Research sample showed status such as In Custody. |
| Charges | Charge code, description, level, counts, arrest location, and arresting agency. |
| Bail | Per-charge bail amount and totalBail when entered. |
| Redacted or absent fields | No public mugshot, DOB, real address, housing pod, or court date in inspected samples. |
Current Calaveras County Inmates and Arrests
Current Calaveras County inmate records and recent arrest entries are separate Citizen RIMS routes. The incarcerated-people route shows current county jail custody. The arrests route shows arrest entries generated from sheriff RMS data and does not reflect every arrest in the county. Research found that arrest entries age out after 30 days, arrest photos are disabled, and certain charges are excluded by agency configuration.
This difference matters for released people. Someone may appear in recent arrests but not in current custody. Another person may remain in court records after release, even though the jail roster no longer lists them. For a released-person booking record or a copy of a report, the sheriff records request process is the better path than refreshing the live inmate list.
| Source | Covers | Key Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Citizen RIMS Incarcerated People | Current county jail custody | No public photos; current roster focus |
| Citizen RIMS Arrests | Recent RMS arrest entries | Not every arrest; entries age out after 30 days |
| Sheriff records request | Report or booking record request | Allow 10 business days; juvenile records not released |
| Calaveras Superior Court portal | Filed cases and register of actions | Case may lag arrest or may not be filed |
Calaveras County Jail Contact

Request Calaveras County Booking Records
The official sheriff records request page is the path for a booking record, report copy, or jail record not fully answered by Citizen RIMS. The page cites Government Code 7920.000, says to allow 10 business days for a response, and states that juvenile records are not released. Requests may also be made in person, by mail to the Records Division, or through the outdoor drop box at the sheriff headquarters.
- Gather the person's full name, booking date, arrest date, case number, or arrest number if known.
- Submit the Calaveras sheriff records request form or contact the Records Division for routing.
- Use the jail phone line for live custody questions, since a records response is not a real-time release check.
- Search the court portal if the requested item is a filed case record rather than a sheriff report.
The Records/Civil page provides the sheriff records counter and civil-service contact details.
The records page is the better source for office routing than the jail roster when the request is for a document copy.
Calaveras County Booking and Bail Fields
The Adult Detention Facility is the central booking and intake location for law-enforcement agencies in Calaveras County. The public record can show original arrest time, original arrest location, booking date and time, booking agency, arresting agency, and charges. Bail appears at the charge level and as a totalBail field when entered. A zero-dollar amount should not be read as a promise that release is available.
- Booking
- The jail intake event that creates the custody record after arrest or court commitment.
- Arresting agency
- The agency that made or initiated the arrest, such as CCSO or ACPD.
- Total bail
- The sum of visible bail amounts across charges, if bail is entered and public.
- Hold
- A separate legal reason that can prevent release, such as a warrant, probation, parole, federal, or immigration hold.
Before posting bond or contacting a bail agent, call the Detention Center at (209) 754-6499 to verify custody, release eligibility, current bail, and whether another hold blocks release.
Calaveras County Jail Visits and Money
Jail services use separate rules from the inmate search. Visiting is scheduled through Securus except for non-contact glass visits. Sunday visit requests or new visitor registration must be filed online by 2:00 p.m. on the preceding Friday, and late Friday requests are reviewed the following Monday. Visitors check in at the front lobby counter, and visitors 16 or older need valid government-issued photo ID with a current address.
| Service | Rule or Channel |
|---|---|
| Visiting schedule requests | Securus scheduling; Sunday requests due by 2:00 p.m. the preceding Friday. |
| Phone access | Pod phones available 8:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m. daily, subject to jail safety limits. |
| Phone funding | Securus phone services, including (800) 844-6591. |
| Money deposit | SmartDeposit online or lobby kiosk during business hours; arrest number required. |
| Paper correspondence allowed; no more than three photos at a time, no Polaroids, and photos no larger than 4 by 6 inches. | |
| Local deposit restriction | No funds may be placed by a person incarcerated in Calaveras County Jail within the last 90 days. |
The official jail visiting page documents the Securus schedule process and visitor rules.
Use the visiting rules after confirming the person is still in county jail custody, since transfers and releases can make a planned visit fail.
Calaveras County Inmate Lookup Fallbacks
The county jail roster is only one part of the access chain. A person sentenced to state prison should be searched through CDCR CIRIS, which searches by name or CDCR number and can show current location, admission date, commitment county, and parole hearing information. Vallecito Conservation Camp #1 is physically in Calaveras County, but it is a CDCR/CAL FIRE camp, not a county jail.
Federal inmates are searched through the BOP Inmate Locator, while immigration detainees are searched through ICE ODLS. California VINELink can provide custody status notifications, but it is not the official jail roster or a full court case database. The My Calaveras County mobile app exists for county customer-service requests, and no inmate, warrant, or mugshot feature was located.
Custody rule: county jail equals Citizen RIMS, state prison equals CDCR CIRIS, federal custody equals BOP or USMS channels, and immigration detention equals ICE ODLS.
