DeSoto Parish Jail Roster
The DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office publishes an inmate roster through its website and official OCV app framework. The research identified the official feed at DPSO inmate roster feed. The app manifest shows the roster as searchable and sortable, with display dates and public profile entries. That makes it the primary local source for current jail custody in DeSoto Parish County.
The roster is a custody record, not a final court record. DPSO corrections material states that all individuals held are presumed innocent until they have had their day in court. It also says the Sheriff's Office sends the case to the District Attorney, who decides how to proceed in court. For filed charges and outcomes, the jail profile should be compared with DeSoto Parish County arrest records and court charges or the Clerk's criminal court file.
The successful manifest image for the official roster feed appears below.
The captured source supports the public roster fields discussed here, including name, booking data, charge text, bond information, and arresting agency.
Use the DeSoto Parish Roster
The DPSO roster interface supports search and sort. The raw feed returns public profiles, while the web and app views present the list to users. Start broad if the spelling is uncertain, then narrow by visible name or entry text. If no result appears, the person may not be in local custody, may have been released, may be in state custody, may be in federal custody, or may be held under a name spelling that differs from the search.
- Open the DPSO inmate roster from the sheriff website or the official DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office app.
- Use the search control with a last name, first name, or visible roster text when available.
- Sort entries if needed, since the app configuration defaults to date-descending order.
- Open the inmate entry to review the profile, charge lines, and bond amount required.
- Call the Detention Center before relying on a bond, release, or custody detail that may have changed.
The roster can also expose warrant-related charge text after a person is booked. It cannot confirm a pre-arrest warrant by itself, and it does not show the full court record, court date, attorney, sentence, or release date in the fields captured by the research.
DeSoto Parish Inmate Search Fields
The research captured a roster search-field table from the DPSO app manifest. It shows a practical search environment rather than a court-style database with many required fields. Most users should begin with name text, then use visible profile details to decide whether the entry is the correct person.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search | Text | Optional | App manifest sets showSearch true; use name or visible text. |
| Sort | Control | Optional | App manifest sets showSort true and default sortOrder dateDesc. |
| Inmate entry / title | List item | n/a | Title is inmate name in LAST, FIRST MIDDLE style. |
| Submit a Tip | Action link | Optional | Manifest sets submitATipLink true for inmate roster. |
| Display date | List display | n/a | Manifest sets displayDate true; feed has booking or publication date values. |
DeSoto Parish Inmate Profile Fields
The sample inmate-profile inventory was captured from the official DPSO roster feed on June 29, 2026. Some fields may be blank, coded, or messy in a live feed. A bond line may show a dollar amount, $0.00, N/A, or combined text. Because the roster is a live public feed, court, jail, or bond information can change faster than cached copies or screenshots.
Several fields were not visible in the captured feed: booking number separate from inmate ID, date of birth, warrant number, pod or tank, magistrate, court date, release date, sentence, statute code, charge class, attorney, and medical or watch flags. Those omissions are important. A DeSoto Parish County inmate record can show custody and booking facts without showing the full criminal case, the next hearing, or the final charge disposition. Call the jail or check the court record when a missing field changes the answer.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Mugshot/photo | Small and large image URLs were present in the feed. |
| Name | Roster title in last-name-first format. |
| Disclaimer | Presumption-of-innocence language before profile facts. |
| Booking date | Date and time associated with the custody entry. |
| Gender, race, age | Profile identity fields, often shown as codes for gender or race. |
| Height, weight, eyes, hair | Physical descriptors, sometimes listed as N/A or incomplete. |
| Inmate ID | The visible roster identifier for the person. |
| Arresting agency | Observed sources included DPSO, MPD, LSP, P&P, and N/A. |
| City/state | Location field shown in the public profile. |
| Charges | Charge description lines, not final court convictions. |
| Bond amount required | Bond detail per charge when available. |
DeSoto Parish Detention Center
The local jail facility is the DeSoto Parish Detention Center at the Sheriff's Office. DPSO corrections content says the detention center is located through the front doors of the Sheriff's Office at 205 Franklin Street, through the foyer and to the back. The approximate capacity is 120 inmates. The typical custody group is people held while awaiting trial, though the population can also include other lawful holds.

The successful manifest image for DPSO corrections page data supports the jail contact and visitation details.
That source is also the basis for the visitation schedule, commissary methods, and jail-location notes used in the next sections.
DeSoto Parish Inmate Visitation
Official visitation details came from the DPSO Corrections page JSON. The published rules focus on appointment timing and video visitation contact rather than a broad list of dress code, ID, mail, or lockdown rules. Call the Detention Center before travel because jail visits can change due to staffing, court movement, security, medical needs, or facility operations.
| Item | Rule |
|---|---|
| Scheduling days | Monday-Friday. |
| Scheduling / visit time block | 1:00 p.m. to 3:40 p.m. |
| End time | All visits must end by 4:00 p.m. |
| Advance notice | At least 24 hours before a scheduled visit. |
| Visit length | 15 minutes per session or visit. |
| Video visitation contact | Call 318-872-2295 between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. |
Attorney visitation rules were not separately published in the inspected DPSO content. Attorneys should contact the Detention Center directly or use the court and defender channels as appropriate.
Detailed mail rules were also not found in official DPSO content inspected for this build. The research did not verify envelope format, banned items, book-vendor rules, postcard limits, or scanning policy. That means mail instructions should not be assumed from another Louisiana jail. Use the Detention Center phone before mailing letters, photos, books, money orders, or legal material.
Commissary and Inmate Funds
DPSO corrections content identifies two money and commissary methods. The Detention Center lobby accepts cards or cash for commissary. For online deposits or commissary purchases, DPSO points users to City Tele Coin. The research did not find a full official phone-rate table, deposit-limit table, book policy, mail-scanning policy, or detailed banned-item list. Those gaps should be confirmed with the jail before sending money, mail, or property.
| Method | Details |
|---|---|
| Lobby commissary | Detention Center lobby accepts cards or cash. |
| Online deposits / commissary | DPSO points to City Tele Coin for inmate account funds or commissary purchases. |
| Phone / video provider | City Tele Coin appears as the provider from the commissary link. |
Note: Call 318-872-2295 before mailing items because detailed mail rules were not published in the official source reviewed.
App and Custody Fallbacks
DPSO's site metadata advertises the official DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office app for Apple and Google Play. The app name is DeSoto Parish Sheriff's Office (LA), with OCV / TheSheriffApp infrastructure. The shared download URL is DPSO app share page. The same app-backed environment includes Inmate Roster, Public Records Request, Victim Alerts, CrimeStoppers/P3 tips, Contact Numbers, OffenderWatch, LAVNS/VINELink, and other public safety tools.
For sentenced people transferred out of parish custody, use the Louisiana DPS&C imprisoned-person locator. The parish jail roster is for local custody, often pretrial custody. The state locator is for people in state prison or state custody. VINELink/LAVNS can provide custody notification, but it is not a certified court record.
Custody can move across systems. A person may begin in the DeSoto Parish Detention Center, appear on the roster while awaiting trial, then leave the roster after release, transfer, sentence, or agency pickup. If a person disappears from the local roster, check the state locator, VINELink notification tools, the court case file, or the appropriate federal source rather than assuming the case is over.
The manifest includes the Louisiana DOC DeSoto Parish local jail listing.
That source reinforces the difference between the DeSoto Parish Detention Center listing and a statewide custody search for people already transferred to state custody.
Federal Inmate Search Limits
Federal custody is separate from DeSoto Parish County inmate records. A person arrested on a federal indictment, held for the U.S. Marshals, sentenced to federal prison, or moved into Bureau of Prisons custody may not appear in the parish jail roster the same way as a local pretrial inmate. Use the federal locator when the case belongs to the Western District of Louisiana or another federal district.
The successful manifest image for the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator is included below.
The BOP locator is a fallback for federal prison custody, not a replacement for the DeSoto Parish jail roster, DPSO custody phone line, or local court records.
