Ramsey County Jail Roster & Inmate Search - Page 2

How to Search the Ramsey County Jail Roster

Use the search bar at the top of this page to find anyone currently held at the Ramsey County Adult Detention Center in Saint Paul. You can search by full legal name, booking number, or charge. Names appear as last, first, middle - if your first search returns nothing, try the last name only.

Each record shows the person's booking number, intake date and time, charge description, offense level (F = Felony, G = Gross Misdemeanor, M = Misdemeanor), and bail amount if one has been set.

The roster reflects physical custody only. It does not include past bookings or records for people who have already been released.

Why Someone May Not Appear Yet

A new arrest will not show up immediately. The individual must complete full booking first - fingerprinting, photography, and medical screening - which can take one to several hours depending on how busy intake is at the time.

Check back in a few hours, or call (651) 266-9350 to confirm custody status directly.

Reading the Bail and Hold Fields

If you see $0.00 bail but the person remains in custody, they likely have a hold from another agency - a probation violation, an out-of-county warrant, or an A&D order - that prevents release regardless of local bail. Ramsey County books individuals on behalf of multiple law enforcement agencies, including Saint Paul PD, the Minnesota State Patrol, Metro Transit Police, and several suburban departments including Maplewood, Roseville, White Bear Lake, Shoreview, and New Brighton PD. The arresting agency affects which holds may be attached to the booking record.

A Rule 8 or Omnibus notation refers to an upcoming felony hearing type, not a release date.

How to Post Bail for a Ramsey County Inmate

Once you confirm the bail amount on the roster above, call (651) 266-9350 to verify the exact figure and whether any holds are attached before going anywhere. Holds from other agencies, probation violations, or pretrial monitoring conditions can prevent release even after local bail is satisfied.

The Ramsey County Adult Detention Center accepts bail payments at the lobby window at 425 Grove St, St. Paul, MN 55101, seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Bring the full amount in cash - the facility accepts cash only and will not process partial payments or card transactions.

Processing after bail is posted typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, though it may run longer during shift changes. Release conditions set by a judge - such as no-contact orders, GPS monitoring, or a mandatory mental health assessment - take effect immediately upon release. Ask staff what conditions apply when you call to confirm.

If a pretrial assessment was ordered, contact Justice Point at (651) 661-7431. Justice Point handles pretrial services in Ramsey County and can clarify monitoring requirements before a person is released.

Call the Jail First

Dial (651) 266-9350 and confirm the bail amount, whether any holds are attached, and what release conditions the judge set before you leave home.

Bail Payment Window

Proceed to 425 Grove St, St. Paul, MN 55101. The lobby bail window operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Bring the exact amount in cash.

Using a Bail Bondsman

If you cannot cover the full bail amount, contact a licensed Minnesota bail bondsman from the state-approved list. Bondsmen typically charge a non-refundable 10 percent premium and are generally available around the clock. Arrange transportation in advance because the facility does not provide rides after release.

How to Contact an Inmate at Ramsey County Jail

Inmates at the Adult Detention Center cannot receive incoming phone calls. All outbound calls run through Securus Technologies. Set up a funded account at securustech.net before the inmate calls you so the call connects without interruption.

In addition to voice calls, Securus supports electronic messaging and photo sharing through kiosks inside the facility. The inmate initiates messages from the kiosk; you receive and respond through your Securus account online.

Family Emergency Contact

For an urgent situation - a death in the family or a serious medical crisis - call (651) 266-9350 directly. Once staff verify the emergency, they can relay the message to the inmate.

Mail

Send all letters through the U.S. Postal Service addressed to the inmate's full legal name and booking number at 425 Grove St, St. Paul, MN 55101. All correspondence is inspected before delivery.

Books and magazines must arrive directly from a publisher or approved vendor - they cannot be sent by individuals.

Visitation Hours at Ramsey County Jail

The Ramsey County Adult Detention Center offers two types of visits: on-site visits at the facility and remote video visits from any location. Both types are managed through Securus Technologies, and both require a reservation at least 24 hours in advance. Walk-ins are not accepted.

Each visit is limited to 20 minutes. On-site visits are free of charge. Remote video visits cost $7.99 per 20-minute session.

To schedule either type, log in to your Securus account at securustech.net and book the session at least 24 hours before the desired time.

What to Bring and What to Expect

• Bring a valid government-issued photo ID - a driver's license, state ID, or passport.
• All on-site visitors are subject to search upon arrival.
• Anyone who appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be turned away.
• Do not bring food, beverages, letters, or personal items intended for the inmate; use the mail system for that.

Rules for Minors

Children under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult for any visit.

Do not bring minors to the facility without confirming current policy by calling (651) 266-9350, as facility rules on minor visitation can change without notice.

Former Inmates

If you were previously incarcerated at the Ramsey County Adult Detention Center, you are barred from visiting any inmate for 60 days following your own release date.

How to Send Money to an Inmate

Deposited funds are used for commissary purchases - hygiene products, snacks, stationery, and stamps - along with phone and video services and applicable medical co-pays. A $25 booking fee is assessed upon entry and is typically deducted from the inmate's account before other funds are accessible.

Ramsey County processes deposits through JPay. Funds sent online or by phone typically post by the next business day.

Method 1 - Online Through JPay

Go to jpay.com, create or sign in to an account, and search for the inmate by name and facility (Ramsey County Adult Detention Center, Minnesota). Enter the amount and complete payment by debit or credit card. Review the fee schedule before confirming.

Make the money order payable to the inmate's full legal name and include the booking number on the memo line. Mail to JPay's lockbox at: JPay, PO Box 246450, Pembroke Pines, FL 33024.

Do not mail money orders directly to the jail. Allow additional processing time for mailed deposits.
