Arrest and Booking Process in Harrison County

Arrests in Harrison County are made by the Harrison County Sheriff's Office, local police departments in Corydon and other towns, and Indiana State Police. Every arrest that results in detention ends with a booking at the Harrison County Jail. The booking process records identifying information, lists charges, takes a photo and fingerprints, and checks for outstanding warrants. This creates the official 24 hour booking record that becomes publicly available.

Bond is set based on the charges and the defendant's circumstances. For minor offenses, a bond schedule may allow release without a hearing. More serious charges require a judge's order. Judges typically hold initial hearings within 48 hours of arrest. Until bond is posted, the person stays in custody and remains on the active jail roster.

It is worth noting that the Harrison County area sits close to Clark County and Floyd County to the east. If an arrest happened near county lines, the booking may have taken place in a neighboring county. Check those county pages if you do not find what you need in Harrison County.

Note: The inmate roster shows only current inmates. Once someone is released or transferred, they may be removed from the public-facing list. Call the jail for records of past bookings.

Public Access to Harrison County Booking Records

Indiana's Access to Public Records Act applies to booking records held by the Harrison County Sheriff. You can request these records in person at the jail, by mail, or by email. In-person requests must be honored the same day when reasonably possible. Written requests trigger a seven-business-day response window.

If the sheriff's office refuses a lawful request or does not respond in time, the Indiana Public Access Counselor at in.gov/pac is your recourse. The PAC handles disputes over public records access, issues advisory opinions, and does so at no cost to you. Filing a complaint is straightforward and often prompts agencies to release records they initially withheld.
