Access Redmond Jail Mugshots
Redmond jail mugshots are generated when someone is arrested by the Redmond Police Department and booked into the King County Jail system. Redmond does not have its own jail for holding inmates. The department runs a booking facility where a person can be held for up to six hours, but after that they go to the King County Correctional Facility in Seattle or the Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent. You can search for Redmond booking photos and arrest records through the King County inmate lookup, the Redmond Police records division, and the city public records portal. This page covers each tool and how to use it.
Redmond Overview
Redmond Police Department
The Redmond Police Department provides law enforcement services across the city. RPD is at 8701 160th Avenue NE, Redmond, WA 98052. The main phone number is 425-556-2500, and the fax line is 425-556-2540. The department serves what the city describes as a diverse technology-focused community, and it places a strong emphasis on community policing.
When Redmond officers arrest someone, that person is held briefly at the RPD booking facility. The facility can hold someone for up to six hours. After that window, the person is transported to the King County Correctional Facility in downtown Seattle or the Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent. That is where the full booking process happens, including the jail mugshot, fingerprints, and intake paperwork. RPD uses jails operated by King County for all longer holds.
RPD handles patrol, investigations, and community outreach. The department offers online reporting for non-emergency incidents that have no known suspects. A Redmond crime map is also available on the city website, and you can filter it by crime type and date range. These tools give you a broader picture of law enforcement activity in Redmond beyond individual arrest records.
Redmond Jail Mugshots via King County
The King County Jail inmate lookup is the main tool for finding a current Redmond jail mugshot. Search by name. Results show the booking photo, charges, bail or bond amount, and release status. The King County roster updates several times a day and is free to use. No account or login is needed.
Redmond arrestees are typically held at the King County Correctional Facility at 500 Fifth Ave in downtown Seattle or the Maleng Regional Justice Center at 401 Fourth Avenue N in Kent. The online roster covers both facilities. If you see a Redmond arrest on a police blotter or news report, this is the first place to check for the booking photo and charge list.
The jail register is a public record under RCW 70.48.100. This Washington law requires every jail to maintain a daily log of inmates that anyone can inspect. The register must show the inmate's name, date and time of booking, arresting agency, charges, and release info. For Redmond bookings, the arresting agency field will show Redmond Police Department.
Note: The online roster only displays people who are currently in custody at King County facilities.
Request Redmond Arrest Records
The City of Redmond Public Records Center is the official portal for requesting police reports, arrest files, and booking photos from the Redmond Police Department. The police records portal is at Redmond.gov/RecordRequest. You can also reach the Police Records Office at 8701 160th Ave NE, Redmond, WA 98052, or call 425-556-2600.
The Redmond Public Records Requests page shows the full process for getting jail mugshots and arrest files.
The Redmond public records portal is where you submit formal requests for police reports, arrest records, and booking photos from the Redmond Police Department.
When you submit a request, you will get a receipt notice within 48 business hours. The Records Division will respond within five business days. They will either provide the records, give you a time and cost estimate, or explain any exemptions that apply. The City Clerk is the designated public records officer. The current clerk is Cheryl Xanthos, reachable at cityclerk@redmond.gov. The Public Records Disclosure Program Coordinator is Sara Frasier-Jackson at 425-556-2195.
Fees are listed in the city's Records Fee Schedule, available as a PDF on the public records page. Discovery requests for cases under active prosecution must go through the appropriate prosecutor's office, not through the police records team. The Public Records Act under RCW 42.56 governs how the city handles these requests and what exemptions can apply.
Redmond Booking Record Contents
A Redmond booking record at the King County Jail includes the standard fields that Washington law requires. You will find the full name and date of birth, the jail mugshot, arrest date and time, arresting agency, the charge list with case numbers, bail or bond amount, court date, and release status. These are the same fields available for any King County booking regardless of which city the arrest happened in.
Criminal history records beyond the current booking log have extra protections under RCW Chapter 10.97. This is the state criminal records privacy act. It limits how nonconviction information can be shared with the public. Conviction data remains more widely accessible. If you need an older Redmond jail mugshot that has dropped off the live King County roster, a public records request to either Redmond PD or the King County Sheriff is the way to go.
King County District Court in Redmond
The King County District Court East Division sits at 8601 160th Avenue NE, Redmond, WA 98052. The phone number is 206-205-9200. This court handles district court cases for Redmond and the broader northeast King County area. Misdemeanor charges, traffic crimes, small claims, and civil orders often go through this court.
For civil matters like court orders, fines, protection orders, and small claims service, contact the King County NE District Court directly. Felony cases from Redmond move to the King County Superior Court in Seattle. You can match a Redmond booking record to a case by searching both the district court and superior court systems depending on the charge level.
Redmond Police also offers clearance letters for people who need to show their local criminal history. These letters cover the past ten years and are available to Redmond residents only. You will need proof of residency and a valid photo ID. The process takes up to four business days. This is separate from a full booking record request and only covers Redmond-specific data.
Note: Clearance letters from Redmond PD only cover local history and will not include arrests or jail mugshots from other jurisdictions.
Statewide Lookup Tools
The Washington Courts public case search covers cases filed in district, municipal, and superior courts statewide. Look up a Redmond case alongside cases from any other Washington city. Results show court name, case number, charge type, and status. It is the best single tool when you are not sure which court has the file.
For statewide conviction data, the WATCH system from the Washington State Patrol is the go-to resource. WATCH pulls records from courts and jails across the state. There is a fee for each lookup. It returns conviction data that goes well beyond what the King County jail roster shows for current inmates. The use of criminal history data is governed by RCW 10.97.040.
The Washington Department of Corrections inmate search handles people serving state prison sentences. Once someone leaves the King County Jail for DOC custody, the county roster drops them. DOC covers all state prison facilities. Victims of a Redmond crime can sign up for VINELink to get alerts when an inmate is moved, released, or transferred from any King County or state facility.
