New Albany Inmate Roster Search

The New Albany jail roster lists people currently in custody at the Floyd County Jail following an arrest by city police or county sheriff deputies. New Albany is the county seat of Floyd County, and all arrests made within the city are processed and held at the Floyd County Jail. You can search the active roster by name using the Floyd County Sheriff's inmate information page or the statewide INjail Public Portal, both of which are available at no cost and updated as bookings are processed.

New Albany Police Department

The New Albany Police Department serves as the primary law enforcement agency for the city. Officers handle patrol duties, criminal investigations, traffic enforcement, and public safety calls throughout New Albany. When an arrest is made by city police, the person is taken to the Floyd County Jail for booking. The New Albany Police Department does not have its own detention facility. All arrested persons held overnight go through the county jail system.

The non-emergency line for New Albany PD is 812-948-5300. For emergencies, always call 911. The department coordinates with the Floyd County Sheriff's Department, which runs the jail where New Albany arrestees are processed and held. If you are trying to find out whether someone is in custody after a New Albany arrest, the Floyd County Jail is where you should look first. The Floyd County page on this site has the jail's contact information and address.

New Albany is located directly across the Ohio River from Louisville, Kentucky. The city's location means federal agencies and neighboring Kentucky law enforcement occasionally share jurisdiction on cross-border matters. For most arrests within city limits, however, New Albany PD handles the case and Floyd County handles the booking and detention. Court proceedings happen through the Floyd County court system after charges are filed by the Floyd County Prosecutor.

New Albany Jail Roster Search

The Floyd County Sheriff's Department maintains an inmate information page for the Floyd County Jail. Visit fcsdin.com/inmateinfo to search for people currently in custody. This is the most direct source for New Albany-area inmate data and pulls directly from the jail's booking system. The page is available at no cost and does not require you to log in or register.

Search by first and last name, or try last name only if you are unsure of the spelling. Results include the person's name, booking date, listed charges, bond information, and current status. If a person was recently arrested, they may take some time to appear in the system after booking is complete. Not seeing a name does not always mean the person was released; allow a few hours after an arrest before concluding they are not there.

The INjail Public Portal is a statewide inmate search tool maintained by Indiana. Select Floyd County to see current bookings at the Floyd County Jail. INjail is a good option when you want to confirm what you found on the sheriff's site or when the local portal is temporarily unavailable. Additional county information is also available through the Indiana state page for Floyd County.

Booking Records and Public Access

A public record is created each time someone is booked into the Floyd County Jail. That record includes the person's name, date of birth, booking date, charges, bond amount, and booking number. Indiana's Access to Public Records Act at IC 5-14-3 makes most of this information accessible to anyone who asks. You do not need a lawyer or a court order to get basic booking data from the Floyd County Jail.

Indiana jail regulations at 210 IAC 3-1-6 set the requirements for how county jails must maintain and disclose booking information. These rules apply directly to the Floyd County Jail. They help ensure that what you see in the online search is accurate and current. If you need records for someone who was already released, submit a written public records request to the Floyd County Sheriff's Department. A response is required within a reasonable time under state law.

Not all arrest records are public. Juvenile records are generally protected. Certain records related to ongoing investigations may be withheld. Sensitive personal information is excluded from public releases. But for most adult bookings, the core record is available, and the tools on this page let you access it for free without any special process.

Additional Resources

The Indiana Department of Correction Offender Locator tracks people who have been convicted and sent to a state prison or alternative placement. If someone is not showing up at the Floyd County Jail, they may have been sentenced and transferred to an IDOC facility. The locator is free and shows current placement, facility name, and projected release dates for state inmates.
