How to Conduct a Maryland Inmate Search

A Maryland inmate search can be conducted at the website of the Maryland Department of Corrections, located at http://www.dpscs.state.md.us/. The website features the Inmate Locator tool, which has been provided to facilitate easy searching of the inmate records by the public.

Using this service, you can determine the correctional facility in which a particular inmate is serving his or her term. These inmates are placed under the supervision of the Commissioner of Correction and housed at one of the correctional facilities in the state or at a Patuxent Institution. If the offender has only been arrested for a brief time, then he or she is most likely awaiting trial and is detained at the Division of Pretrial and Detention Services facilities. Certain information may not be available on specific inmates, as not all information is made public. The list may not feature the names of those who are serving a short sentence or who are under the custody of the Commissioner of Pretrial Detention Services.

Maryland Inmate Locator

The Maryland inmate search engine is located at http://www.dpscs.state.md.us/inmate/. On this page, you will find the Inmate Locator tool. Fill out the fields marked for first and last name and then click on the “Search” option. The search page will display all the entries with matching names along with the date of birth of each inmate.

The information that is furnished on the Maryland inmate locator system must be cross-checked with the appropriate authorities. If you are a victim of any of the inmates listed on the website, you can contact the Victim Services Department at http://www.dpscs.state.md.us/victimservs/.

A Maryland inmate search can provide a wealth of information about the offenders currently serving their prison terms. Maryland law permits law enforcement agencies to furnish information on these inmates, such as their custody rights, their DOC commitment numbers, and their mailing addresses. In order to find out the DOC number of an inmate, you can contact the data processing center of the DOC and request the number by submitting the full name, sex, date of birth, race, and social security number of the inmate.
