Siskiyou County Jail Booking Details

The Siskiyou County jail opened in 1988 with 68 beds. It has since been expanded to hold 104 people. The facility sits in Yreka and handles all bookings for the county. When someone is arrested by the sheriff's deputies or by local police in places like Yreka, Mount Shasta, or Weed, the arrested person comes to this one jail for booking. During the booking process, staff create a record with the person's name, date of birth, physical description, charges, arresting officer, arrest time, and bail amount.

Siskiyou County covers a huge area. It is the fifth largest county in California by land but has a small population. Despite the low density, the jail stays active. Drug offenses, DUI arrests, and property crimes make up a large share of the bookings. The booking report for each arrest is a public record that anyone can view or request a copy of.

Siskiyou County Booking Record Laws

The California Public Records Act covers all Siskiyou County booking reports. Under Government Code Section 7923.600, the sheriff must release booking data including the arrested person's name, charges, bail amount, arrest time, and custody location. You don't need to explain why you want the information. It is public by law.

Penal Code Section 13300 draws a line between booking reports and full criminal histories. A booking report covers one arrest. A criminal history covers everything on a person's record statewide. The public can see booking reports freely. Full criminal histories are restricted and only available through the California DOJ for $25 with fingerprints. That distinction matters. What you find on the Siskiyou County CitizenRIMS portal is booking data for current inmates, not their entire criminal background.

Note: Booking photos posted on social media by law enforcement are subject to restrictions under Penal Code Section 13665 for nonviolent offenses.
