Glenn County Booking Records

Glenn County 72 hour booking records come from the Glenn County Sheriff Office in Willows. The sheriff posts arrest reports on the county website for the public to view. These reports show who was booked into the Glenn County jail and what charges they face. Glenn County is a small, rural county in the Sacramento Valley, so the jail sees fewer bookings than bigger California counties. But every arrest still produces a public record under state law. This page explains where to find Glenn County booking records online, what details each record holds, and how California law protects your right to see them.

Glenn County does not use a full inmate search database like some larger California counties. Instead, the sheriff publishes arrest reports in a document format on the county site. These reports cover the same ground as a 72 hour booking log. They tell you who was arrested, when, and why. The format is different from what you might see in a county that uses Citizen RIMS or JIMS, but the information is the same. Glenn County keeps these reports updated so the public can stay informed about recent jail activity.

The Glenn County jail is a small facility. Willows is the county seat and where the jail sits. The sheriff handles all bookings for the county. City police in Willows and Orland make arrests too, but the county jail processes those bookings. This means the arrest reports on the county website cover all bookings in Glenn County, not just sheriff arrests.

Note: Glenn County uses arrest report documents instead of a searchable database, but the booking data is the same.
