Juneau Jail Roster Overview
Juneau Jail Roster Tools
The Juneau jail roster pulls from a few sources. First, the Juneau Police Department handles most arrests inside the city and borough. Second, the Lemon Creek Correctional Center holds booked inmates under state DOC control. Third, the VINE service covers every state and community jail in Alaska. For the full borough view, the Juneau City and Borough page lists state and local tools side by side.
Juneau is a consolidated city and borough. The Juneau Police Department is the main law enforcement agency for the area. According to the Alaska Department of Public Safety 2022 annual report, the Juneau City and Borough Police Department made 1,465 arrests that year. Those arrests covered crimes against people, property, and society. The Lemon Creek Correctional Center housed 18 inmates as of March 31, 2023. The arrest count shows how the Juneau jail roster moves through its main detention site each year.
Peace officers in the area have the legal right to make arrests. They can do so without a warrant if they have probable cause or witness a crime. After an arrest, they may hold the person at the city jail pending further investigation. Once the case moves forward, the person often transfers to LCCC under state custody.
Juneau Police Department
The Juneau Police Department is at 6255 Alaway Avenue, Juneau, AK. The main phone line is 907-586-0600. The fax is 907-463-4808. JPD handles all first stage arrests inside the city and borough limits. The department keeps arrest records that list the date, time, place, and charge for each case. You can request records under the Alaska Public Records Act, which gives agencies 10 business days to reply.
JPD also works with the Alaska State Troopers on cases that cross city lines. If an arrest starts outside the city, the troopers may book the person at LCCC without a JPD stop. That means some Juneau jail roster entries never show up in JPD files. VINE is the best way to catch these cases. It pulls from the state DOC system and shows every inmate, no matter which agency made the first arrest.
Note: JPD does not keep an online booking list, so call 907-586-0600 if you need the current Juneau jail roster status for a recent arrest.
Lemon Creek Correctional Center
Lemon Creek Correctional Center is the main state jail for the Juneau area. The address is 2000 Lemon Creek Road, Juneau, AK. The main phone line is 907-465-6200. LCCC holds pretrial inmates and people serving sentences of a few years or less. It is one of 13 state DOC facilities in Alaska. The Alaska DOC runs a central inmate database that feeds into the VINE system.
LCCC was listed with 18 inmates in the state count on March 31, 2023. That number moves up and down as cases work through the courts. Long term inmates may move to Spring Creek in Seward or Goose Creek in Wasilla. Once a person moves, VINE updates the site record within a short time. The DOC main office in Juneau is at PO Box 112000, phone 907-465-4652. Alaska has no sheriffs. The Alaska State Troopers at 907-269-5976 handle areas outside the Juneau police coverage.
Juneau VINE and Inmate Search
VINE is the fastest way to check the Juneau jail roster. Call 1-800-247-9763 or use VINELink online. The service is free. It lets you search by name or offender ID. You can also set alerts. VINE calls or emails you if the person moves, is released, or escapes. You pick a four digit PIN when you sign up. Keep the PIN in a safe spot.
The Alaska Department of Public Safety lists VINE on its external links page. That page is a good second stop. When you search by ID, drop the first zero. You can also type just the first four characters and check the partial ID box. VINE is the only state approved vendor for Alaska inmate data. The court system also runs a tips on locating people page that covers VINE, DOC phone lines, and other public records paths.
Juneau Court Records
Juneau sits in the First Judicial District. The Superior and District Courts in Juneau handle cases tied to local bookings. You can search court cases in CourtView at the Alaska Court System site. Search by name, case number, or hearing date. CourtView shows charges, bail, and the next court date. That helps when you want to know when a Juneau jail roster inmate may be released.
For a second way to search court data, the Alaska Court Records portal is a public index of case files. Use it when CourtView is slow or down. Juneau arrest records are official documents. They are created for arrest events under state law. The records are compiled by peace officers who have the right to make arrests with or without a warrant.
Juneau Public Records
Juneau public records are covered by the Alaska Public Records Act at AS 40.25.110 through AS 40.25.125. Agencies must respond within 10 business days. The act does not limit access based on who you are. The Alaska Public Records Act page at the Department of Law explains the rules. Criminal history files are tighter. Under Alaska Statute 12.62.160, most criminal history is confidential.
For state level history reports, the Alaska Department of Public Safety charges $20 for the first name based copy, $5 for each extra copy, and $35 for a fingerprint based search. You can send requests by mail, fax, or phone at 907-269-5767. Mail goes to the Criminal Records and Identification Bureau at 5700 E Tudor Road, Anchorage, AK 99507. That office handles all statewide history requests. Juneau records can also be pulled through the city borough clerk's office for city level files.
The Alaska Court System provides a tips page on locating people who may be in custody. The screenshot below shows that resource.
That page covers VINE, DOC phone lines, property tax lookups, and steps for cases where the person may be on probation in the Juneau area.
Note: Always ask for the correct agency before you file a Juneau jail roster records request, since city, borough, and state files all follow different rules.
