Collier County Jail Inmate Search & Arrest Records (FL)

If you are looking for someone arrested in Naples, Immokalee, Marco Island, or Everglades City, you are dealing with the Collier County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO).

⚠️ LOCATION WARNING:

Collier County is huge. Sheriff Kevin Rambosk operates two separate jail facilities that are 40 miles apart:

  1. Naples Jail Center: The main headquarters where most arrests go.

  2. Immokalee Jail Center: A secondary facility near the farmland/casino.

If you drive to the wrong one for visitation or release, you are looking at a 45-minute drive to correct your mistake. This guide will help you find exactly where they are, how to use the “Arrest Search” tool, and why you need JailATM for money.


Official Collier County Sheriff Inmate Search (Arrest Search)

Do not pay for a background check. The Sheriff’s Office provides a free, real-time database known as the “Arrest Search.”

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Access the Official Portal: Go directly to the CCSO Arrest Search.

  2. Agree to Terms: You must click the “I Accept” button to enter the database.

  3. Search by Name: Enter the inmate’s Last Name.

    • Expert Tip: The system is sensitive. If you aren’t sure if it’s “McDonald” or “MacDonald,” type “Mc” or “Mac” to see a list of partial matches.

  4. Check the “Status”:

    • Look for the “Booking Date.” If the date is from 2023 or 2024, that is an old record. You want the most recent entry.

“Help! I Can’t Find Their Name!”

If the arrest happened in Marco Island or Immokalee within the last 2 hours, they are likely still in Transport.

  • The Logistics: It takes time to drive an arrestee from Marco Island up to the Naples Jail Center.

  • The Booking Lag: Once they arrive, fingerprinting and medical intake take another 2–4 hours.

  • Who to Call: You can verify a recent arrest by calling the Naples Jail Booking Desk at (239) 252-9500.


How to View Collier County Mugshots, Charges & Bond

Once you find their name on the roster, click on the row to open the full Arrest Report.

1. Viewing the Mugshot:

Collier County displays booking photos clearly. Note: If the inmate is a juvenile or has a specific privacy exemption (like a police officer), the photo will be hidden.

2. Reading the Charges:

This section lists the specific statutes (e.g., DUI, Trespass, Domestic Battery).

3. Checking the Bond Status:

  • $ Amount: This is the “Cash Bond.” You can pay this to release them.

  • “No Bond”: Do not panic. This is standard for:

    • Domestic Violence: FL law requires a “cooling off” period until they see a judge.

    • Felonies: They must wait for First Appearance Court (held daily, usually at 2:00 PM via video).
