Macomb County, Michigan Inmate Search

An inmate search in Macomb County allows users to access information about individuals in jail or detention facilities. In Macomb County, the Sheriff’s Office maintains an online inmate search tool to provide information on individuals in custody at the Macomb County Jail. Likewise, the Michigan Department of Corrections Offender Search Tool provides access to details about inmates of the Macomb Correctional Facility and other Michigan State prisons.

Typically, inmate search tools and jail rosters provide information such as:

• Inmate identification details, including:
  • Full name, including known aliases or alternate names
  • Date of birth or age (often partially redacted)
  • Booking date and time
  • Arresting agency
  • Booking or inmate ID number
  • Charge information
  • Custody Status (whether the person is currently in custody)
