Vallejo Booking Reports

Vallejo booking reports are part of the Solano County Sheriff's jail system. The Vallejo Police Department makes arrests within the city, but the booking process takes place at the county level. Solano County runs the detention facility and creates the booking records. You can search for Vallejo booking data through the county's online inmate search, which shows people booked in the last seven days. For older records or arrest reports from Vallejo police, contact the department directly. The county database gives you the fastest access to current Vallejo booking information.

Vallejo Bookings in Solano County

Solano County processes all Vallejo jail bookings. The Solano County Justice Center at 500 Union Avenue in Fairfield is the main detention facility. You can reach them at 707-784-7100. When Vallejo police arrest someone, the person goes to this county facility for booking. The sheriff's staff handles intake and creates the booking report. It captures the person's name, date of birth, charges, arrest details, and bail amount.

The Solano County Sheriff's Inmate Search lets you look up people booked into the county jail within the last seven days. The search is free. Enter a name and check the results. The site notes that booking information is released under Government Code Section 7923.610. This covers all Vallejo arrests along with those from Fairfield, Vacaville, and other Solano County cities. If the arrest happened more than a week ago, the record may not appear in the online system, and you would need to contact the sheriff's office directly for older Vallejo booking reports.

Vallejo Police Department Records

The Vallejo Police Department keeps its own arrest and incident reports. These city-level records cover what happened during the arrest itself. The department manages requests for these records at their offices. Vallejo police records and Solano County booking reports are separate documents that relate to the same arrest event.

If you need the arrest report from Vallejo police, contact the department's records unit. They can tell you what is available and what fees apply. If you need the booking report showing jail intake details, charges, and bail, go through the Solano County Sheriff. Most people looking for Vallejo booking reports want the county-level data because it shows custody status and charges. The city-level arrest report is more useful when you need to understand the circumstances that led to the arrest.

Vallejo has seen significant changes in its police department over the years. The department handles a wide range of calls across the city. Every arrest that results in jail time creates a booking report in the county system. Whether it is a misdemeanor or a felony, the booking process works the same way. The person goes to the Solano County jail, gets processed, and a record is created. That record becomes public data under California law. You can access it through the county's online tools or by contacting the sheriff's office.
