How to Conduct a Lee County Arrest Search, Mississippi

The good news for those interested in tracking a person’s criminal history is that a Lee County arrest search can be performed online. There are web sources that will allow you to trace a detainee in the county and an inmate in the state.

Where to look for Lee County arrest records

The sheriff’s website contains an inmate lookup tool. Searchers can use it to view an active roster or releases made in the last 2 days. Typing a detainee’s name will get you access to a database which includes mugshots and details such as booking date and number, a scheduled release and charge information.

Searching the state’s databases

If you plan to conduct a more thorough investigation which will reveal Mississippi arrest records, we suggest navigating to the web-based offender search managed by the MDOC. Inmates in correctional facilities run by the state can be traced by either a name or an ID number.

Lee County Warrants

The sheriff’s website presents mugshots of the county’s most wanted people. You will need to turn to his office to inquire about people who do not appear on that list (phone: 662-680-5766. 510 N. Commerce St. Tupelo, MS 38804). The Record Division handles Lee County warrants as well as accident and offense reports. They offer a background check service for $5 and arrest reports for the same price. However, the information they are willing to reveal will relate to you only and not to a third person.

Carrying out a criminal record check

Has the person you are checking ever been convicted in court? Lee County court records will give you an answer to this question. You will need to get to the office of the Circuit Clerk and ask to view copies of case summaries. They will want you to submit a formal FOIA request.  Dial 662-841-9024 for further instructions. A much simpler way to obtain background information is to utilize the search service provided on this website. You just have to type a name to see comprehensive criminal reports related to Mississippi and the entire United States. Each report displays jail and prison records, police data, outstanding warrants and conviction dockets issued by the court – in short, all that you need to determine whether the subject of your search has a criminal record or any other unresolved issues with the law. The reports are constantly updated so that you will be shown the most accurate information. The inquiry process is strictly confidential. The price for the service includes no more than a few dollars.
