How to Use the Plaquemines Parish Jail Roster: Find Someone, Read What's Listed, and Sign Up for Custody Alerts

Start with the official "Plaquemines Parish Sheriff's Office Jail Roster." This is where you'll find who's currently in custody and sign up for custody-status notifications.

Each roster entry appears in a straightforward table. You'll see columns for Name, DOB, Race, Gender, and Arrest Date - helpful for confirming you've found the right person.

Near the top of the roster, you'll find two useful details: the total "# of offenders" currently listed and a "Last updated" timestamp. The timestamp tells you how recently the list refreshed. The offender count gives you a sense of the roster's size.

1. Open the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff’s Office Jail Roster - start on the official roster page.
2. Use the Filter (A–Z or Show All) - choose a letter to browse by initial, or select “Show All” to view the full list.
3. Scan the table details to confirm it’s the right person - compare what’s listed under Name, DOB, Race, Gender, and Arrest Date to make sure you’re matching the correct entry.

Don't want to keep checking the list manually? The roster page has an option to "register anonymously" for custody-status updates. Look for the registration prompt on the roster page and follow the on-screen instructions.

Before relying on what you see, check the "Last updated" timestamp and "# of offenders" shown on the page. An old timestamp means recent changes might not be reflected yet.

• ✓ Try the alphabetical filter again using a different letter (A–Z)
• ✓ Use “Show All” so you’re not missing someone under an unexpected initial
• ✓ Re-check the “Last updated” timestamp before assuming the person isn’t listed
