The Okmulgee County Inmate Population

The Okmulgee County inmate population is administered in an unusual way for a county jail system. The public sheriff site links users to the OCCJA jail inmates roster, but the facilities are operated by the Okmulgee County Criminal Justice Authority. OCCJA says the authority was created in 2002 under Title 60 to administer county jail facilities. Its public materials identify the Okmulgee County Jail at 315 W 8th St and the Moore Detention Center at 111 S Alabama as the detention sites that hold people. The maintenance shop listed by OCCJA supports operations, but it is not treated as a public detention facility.

The population is broader than a simple county-only pretrial list. OCCJA describes housing for county, state, federal, municipal, and tribal partners. ICE inspection material also places immigration detention in the local facility map, especially at the Moore Detention Center. That means an Okmulgee County jail record can involve a local arrest, a municipal sentence, a tribal or federal hold, or a contract detention assignment. Sentenced Oklahoma prisoners who have moved into state custody are no longer tracked by the county roster. They belong in the Oklahoma Department of Corrections lookup.

Okmulgee County Inmate Population Statistics

OCCJA publishes a combined capacity figure for its detention operation rather than a separate public bed count for each detention building. The active Tiger roster count is useful as a daily snapshot, but it should not be treated as an official average daily population. The roster also may not describe every contract population category in the same way a full jail management report would. For that reason, the strongest figures are the combined OCCJA capacity, the number of detention facilities counted here, the roster snapshot from the inspected public roster, and older historical correctional-population data from census-oriented sources.

Okmulgee County Inmate Population Trends

The local trend record is uneven because no official machine-readable Okmulgee County average daily population table was located. The 2013 correctional-population count gives a historical point. The 2026 Tiger roster gives a current public roster count on one inspection date. OCCJA also advertises annual report material, but the detailed annual-report data was not captured in a form that could support a precise year-by-year table. Oklahoma statewide data helps frame the local issue, but it cannot replace a county count.

Capacity also needs care. A roster snapshot below the combined 500-plus capacity does not prove there is no crowding or operational pressure. Jail beds are classified by sex, custody level, medical need, segregation status, contract terms, and housing design. A facility can have empty beds in one unit and no usable space for a specific detainee type in another.

Who Makes Up the Okmulgee County Inmate Population

The public roster shows individual demographic fields but not an aggregate demographic dashboard. The list rows expose name, gender, and age. The inmate profile adds age, sex, race, height, weight, hair, eyes, glasses, mugshot, booking number, booking date, arresting agency, charges, bond, and fine amounts. The inspected data confirmed male and female detainees on the public roster, but no official roster-wide sex, race, age, or charge-level breakdown was published.

• Local detainees: people booked after county, city, tribal, or partner-agency arrests may appear on the Tiger roster.
• Municipal and tribal custody: OCCJA lists municipal and tribal partners, so local custody can involve more than one court system.
• Federal and immigration holds: OCCJA has USMS and ICE-related detention history, and Moore Detention Center is tied to ICE inspection material.
• Sentenced state prisoners: after transfer to ODOC, the correct source is the statewide OK Offender Lookup.

These categories matter for families trying to interpret the Okmulgee County inmate population. A person can be physically housed in an OCCJA facility while the legal case belongs to a city, district court, tribal authority, federal court, or immigration agency. The roster is the local starting point, not the whole legal file.

Okmulgee County Jail Capacity

OCCJA states that the combined capacity across the Okmulgee County Jail and Moore Detention Center exceeds 500 detainees. The Okmulgee County Jail is described as the main detention facility, while Moore is described as an expanded secondary facility that increased capacity for federal and state contracts. ICE's 2018 inspection described Moore as a two-story indirect-supervision facility with four general population housing units and a special management unit. Three general-population units were dormitory style, one had 27 double cells, and unit bed capacities ranged from 51 to 60 beds.

The public sources do not support a blanket claim that the Okmulgee County inmate population is overcrowded. The Frontier reported December 18, 2023 litigation and inspection disputes concerning juvenile housing and state certification issues, but that reporting concerned conditions and authority to hold certain youth rather than a simple beds-versus-population number. The careful reading is that OCCJA has large regional detention capacity, a mix of detainee types, and a public history of inspection and legal scrutiny.

Laws Governing Okmulgee County Jail Data

Oklahoma law treats many jail and arrest records as public records, while still allowing redaction for protected material. The most useful public-record concept for the Okmulgee County inmate population is the jail register. The register explains why booking information, commitment details, prisoner descriptions, and discharge information may be available if the agency keeps the record. Court records after an arrest are separate from jail records and appear in court systems after the prosecutor or court processes the case.

Okmulgee County and State Prison

No Oklahoma Department of Corrections state prison was identified inside Okmulgee County. That does not mean Okmulgee County arrests vanish from state data. When a defendant is convicted and sentenced to ODOC custody, the person leaves the county-jail portion of the Okmulgee County inmate population and becomes part of the statewide prison system. The OK Offender Lookup is the correct public locator after that transfer.

ODOC warns that its public lookup is abbreviated and should not be treated as a full sentence calculation. It can help find a sentenced offender's DOC status, but offense and sentence details may need verification through ODOC records or court dockets. VINELink is also available in Oklahoma for custody-status notifications, but it does not replace the official roster, court record, or DOC file.

Search the Okmulgee County Inmate Population

The official local search source is the Tiger-hosted Okmulgee County Detention Center roster linked from the sheriff and OCCJA sites. It has an active roster, a recently booked tab, and a recently released tab. The public page requires no login and supports a last-name filter. It also includes a disclaimer that the information is a public service and that the facility does not guarantee accuracy.

1. Open the active Tiger roster from the sheriff or OCCJA site.
2. Use the active roster first when the person is believed to be in custody now.
3. Check the Booked Last 72hrs tab if the arrest is recent and the active list does not show the name.
4. Check the Released Last 72hrs tab if bond, release, or transfer may have occurred.
5. Use the last-name field to shorten a long list, then open Select Inmate for profile details.
6. Move to ODOC, BOP, ICE, or VINELink if the person is no longer a local county-jail detainee.

Okmulgee County Roster Fields

The Okmulgee County inmate search is simple compared with many jail systems. The list can be filtered by last name, and the tabs separate current custody from recent bookings and releases. The public interface did not require a first name, date of birth, booking number, or facility dropdown during inspection. Similar names should be checked carefully because the list rows are brief.

The roster screenshot in the research came from the official active roster and shows the last-name filter with inmate rows.

That screen is the local entry point for current Okmulgee County jail custody before a user turns to state, federal, or immigration locators.

Okmulgee County Inmate Record Details

An Okmulgee County inmate record on the Tiger profile is a booking record, not the final court file. The inspected profile displayed a booking photo, full name, booking number, booking date and time, arresting agency, scheduled release date if any, age, sex, height, weight, race, hair, eyes, glasses, and a charge table. The public profile did not show housing pod, court date, warrant number, case number, judge, or magistrate.

County Jail vs State Prison Lookup

The county jail and state prison systems answer different questions. The Okmulgee County roster is the best first source for current local custody and recent 72-hour booking or release activity. The ODOC locator is for sentenced state prisoners and fugitives. Federal BOP and ICE tools cover separate custody systems. A person held locally for USMS or ICE may be physically in Okmulgee, but the federal or immigration agency can still control key custody information.

Okmulgee County Records Request Fallback

When the roster does not answer the question, the local fallback is OCCJA's open-records request form on the contact page. The form collects requester name, address, phone, date, email, relationship to the record subject, up to three record descriptions, certified-copy selections, and a required perjury acknowledgement. The form says fees are due when the request is fulfilled and are non-refundable. It also says OCCJA will contact the requester about fees and record availability.

The OCCJA contact and open-records page is the right place to start for jail or booking material not visible online.

For court records after an arrest, use OSCN, ODCR, or the Okmulgee County Court Clerk instead of sending a jail-records request for the entire criminal case file.

Okmulgee County Detention Facilities

The Okmulgee County inmate population is split across two detention facility pages for this project. The county jail is the primary local facility. Moore Detention Center is treated separately because ICE and contract-detention materials give it a distinct role. Both are operated by OCCJA.

• Okmulgee County Jail holds local pretrial and sentenced county or municipal detainees, plus state, federal, municipal, and tribal partner detainees as assigned by OCCJA.
• Moore Detention Center is the secondary OCCJA facility tied to federal, state, and ICE-related contract detention, with adult male ICE detainees described in inspection material.
