How to Find Someone on the St. Landry Parish Jail Roster and Register for Anonymous Custody Notifications
Trying to confirm whether someone is in custody? Start with the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office Jail Roster. It's hosted directly on the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office site, so the page should clearly say "St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office Jail Roster."
- Find the Filter options on the roster page - Look for the Filter area that includes “Show All” and the A–Z letters.
- Start with “Show All” - This is the fastest way to broaden results if you are not sure how the name is listed.
- Use the A–Z letters to narrow the list - If the list is long, select the letter that matches the person’s last name to browse more quickly.
- Switch letters if you are not seeing them - Try nearby letters (or go back to “Show All”) to catch alternate spellings or hyphenated last names.
After you've opened the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office Jail Roster and found the person's entry, look for the registration wording: "Click to register anonymously to be notified upon any changes in this offender's custody status." Select that option to sign up for notifications tied to that individual.
Note: The roster says you can register anonymously for custody-status change notifications. It doesn't spell out alert delivery details in that line, so pay attention to what the registration screen shows you as you sign up.
Before you rely on what you're seeing, check the "Last updated" line on the roster page. That timestamp includes the date, time, and "Central Time," so you can judge how recent the data actually is.
Troubleshooting Not Found or No Link
- ✓ Confirm you are on the official page labeled “St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office Jail Roster.”
- ✓ Use the Filter option “Show All” to widen the results.
- ✓ Try different A–Z letters if the person does not appear under the letter you expected.
- ✓ Look for the “# of offenders:” field to understand whether your filtering is narrowing the roster down to a small list or a larger one.
- ✓ If you do find the person but do not see the registration wording, go back to the roster list view and check the entry again, since the roster page is where the “Click to register anonymously…” line appears.
Note: This guide only covers what's visible on the roster page. Before relying on alerts, verify the notification delivery method, any confirmation steps, and how to unsubscribe. You can find those details through the roster's registration flow or by contacting the Sheriff's Office directly.
