Aleutians East Borough Jail Roster Overview
Where to Find the Aleutians East Borough Jail Roster
The Aleutians East Borough has no dedicated long-term jail. The area is served by Alaska State Troopers for most calls. Troopers handle the first hold after an arrest and then move inmates to a state facility if the case calls for it. To find a person in custody from this borough, start with the statewide VINE service, then check the Alaska Court System.
VINE stands for Victim Information and Notification Everyday. Call 1-800-247-9763 or use the online portal. The service is free. It is the main public tool for an Aleutians East Borough jail roster lookup. You can search by name or by the offender's DOC ID. The Alaska Department of Public Safety lists VINE as the official state inmate lookup. VINE shows current location, a tentative release date, and lets you sign up for alerts.
When someone gets booked on the peninsula or an island in this borough, the case often moves through a regional facility. The nearest larger DOC site is in Anchorage. You can reach the Anchorage Correctional Complex at 907-269-4100. If the person was already moved, VINE should show the new site.
Note: For the fastest Aleutians East Borough jail roster lookup, start with VINE before you call any single facility.
Alaska State Troopers and Aleutians East Records
The Alaska State Troopers are the main law enforcement arm in the Aleutians East Borough. There is no borough sheriff. Troopers patrol the villages and handle the first booking after most arrests. Arrest records from this area go through the trooper post that covers the call, then get filed with the Department of Public Safety.
The Alaska Department of Public Safety runs the state criminal records system. Their Criminal Records and Identification Bureau keeps arrest data and handles background check requests. A name-based criminal history report costs $20 for the first copy and $5 for each extra copy. Fingerprint searches cost $35. The phone line for the bureau is 907-269-5767. Mail requests go to 5700 E. Tudor Road, Anchorage, AK 99507.
The court system tips page lists direct phone numbers for every state and community jail. You can view it on the Alaska Court System site. That page is a good second stop once you have checked VINE. For state trooper reports and incident files, the DPS records request portal at dpsalaska.justfoia.com takes new requests and lets you track ones you have already sent.
The Alaska Bureau of Investigation supports troopers in the field with forensic help, intel, and case work. For an Aleutians East Borough jail roster request tied to a major case, ABI may be the unit that has the file.
Aleutians East Inmate Records Portal
Inmate records under Alaska law include the person's full name, age, race, holding site, charges, and a short physical description. The state DOC runs the central database. The inmate records page also covers visitation rules and money transfer steps. Funds can be sent to inmates by mail using U.S. postal money orders, cashier's checks, or payroll checks. The borough follows Alaska DOC commissary rules for all such transfers.
The Alaska DPS background check portal handles name-based criminal history requests for Aleutians East Borough and the rest of the state.
Each report costs $20 for the first copy and $5 for additional copies.
When you use the VINE system for an Aleutians East search, keep in mind a few tips. Drop the first zero from an offender's DOC ID number before you type it in. If you do not know the full name, check the partial name box and enter at least a last name. You can also try a partial ID search with at least four characters. VINE is confidential. The inmate will not know you looked them up. If you register for alerts, pick a four-digit PIN and write it down. VINE calls back automatically when a custody status changes, and it may call in the middle of the night. If you miss the call, VINE keeps trying for up to 24 hours.
Aleutians East Borough Public Records Access
Under the Alaska Public Records Act at AS 40.25.110 through AS 40.25.125, agencies must answer a records request within 10 business days. The act does not limit access based on who you are or why you want the records. The Alaska Department of Law runs the act and can be reached at 907-269-5100.
Criminal history records held by DPS have a stricter rule. Under AS 12.62.160 most of that data is confidential and not released to the general public. The person who is the subject of the record can get a copy, and some uses like court orders and agency sharing are allowed. For police reports, your request should include the incident date, the location, and the names of the people involved.
Note: File your records request in writing and keep a copy, since an agency has 10 business days to reply.
Aleutians East Borough Court Records and CourtView
Court cases tied to the Aleutians East Borough move through the Alaska Court System. The court runs a public portal called CourtView. You can search by party name, case number, or by a ticket number if the case is a traffic offense. Click a case and you see the details, next hearing date, and some linked documents. Not every paper in a file is online.
A name-based CourtView search asks for first and last name. You can narrow the results with middle name, case type, and case status. If the person you want has a common name, add a birth year and the district code. Some records get sealed by court order. Those will not show up in a public search.
