How to Search Harrison County Booking Reports
Harrison County has an online inmate search available through the Sheriff's Office. Go to harrisoncountysheriff.com/inmate-search to look up current inmates. You can also use the Tyler Technologies public access portal at portal-txharrison.tylertech.cloud. Both systems allow searches by name. The Odyssey portal also supports case number searches.
The online inmate search shows booking photos, charges, bond amounts, and court dates. The system is updated frequently, so current custody status is generally accurate.

For written records requests, you can submit a request to the Harrison County Sheriff's Office under the Texas Public Information Act. Include the full name of the person, the date of the arrest if known, and your contact information. The office has 10 business days to respond. Standard copy fees apply. For individuals convicted and sent to state prison, use the TDCJ Offender Search to track their state custody status. VINELink is also available for custody notification alerts.
Note: The online portal requires at least two characters in the last name field to run a search. Partial name searches work but broader searches may return many results.
