Written Public-Records Requests
Grant Parish Sheriff's OfficeCustodian of Records
P.O. Box 187
Colfax, Louisiana 71417
GPSO states that requests must be made in writing by U.S. Mail and are not deemed received through another method.
Choose the route below when the request involves another custody stage or record holder.
- For a booking record or photo, begin with the Grant Parish records and arrest lookup, then mail a specific request to the Custodian of Records.
- For a person booked very recently, check Arrests Last 24 Hours and call the detention facility if the digital source lags.
- For a multi-day list or older news entries, use the Police Blotter page and then the records line for material beyond the published window.
- For release or transfer alerts, use the VINELink Custody Check; only GPSO or the jail can confirm current local custody.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, consult Louisiana DPS&C inmate information. Federal BOP and ICE maintain separate locators for people in their custody.
