Edmonds Inmate Population Records
Edmonds inmate population records are held at the Snohomish County Jail in Everett, where all Edmonds Police arrests are transported for booking. Edmonds does not operate its own jail facility. After an arrest within Edmonds city limits, the individual is taken to 3025 Oakes Ave in Everett for intake, fingerprinting, and booking. The Snohomish County jail register is available online and can be searched by name to find current detainees, their booking dates, charges, and bail amounts. The register also covers inmates from Lynnwood and Marysville municipal jails, which are listed alongside county bookings.
Edmonds Jail Overview
Where Edmonds Arrests Are Processed
Edmonds Police transport all arrested individuals to the Snohomish County Jail at 3025 Oakes Ave, Everett. The facility is run by the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office, which manages booking, classification, and detention for jurisdictions across the county. When an Edmonds officer makes an arrest, they drive the person to Everett for processing. This is standard practice for most cities in Snohomish County that do not have their own lockup.
Once at the county jail, the intake process includes identity verification, a health screening, fingerprints, and documentation of the charges. The individual is assigned a booking number and placed in a housing unit based on the charge level and classification results. Pre-trial detainees who cannot post bail remain at the county jail until their case is resolved or they are transferred to a state facility for long-term sentences.

Edmonds also has a Municipal Court that handles misdemeanor and infraction cases arising within city limits. The court is at edmondswa.gov/government/municipal_court. Municipal court cases involving custody will still use the Snohomish County Jail for detention, since Edmonds does not hold people in a city facility.
How to Search the Edmonds Inmate Population
The Snohomish County jail register is the primary tool for finding Edmonds inmates. It is free and accessible online. You can search by name and see who is currently held at the Snohomish County Jail, along with their booking date, charges, and bail status.
The direct link to the jail register is at jailregister.sno911.org/SCSO. You can also get to it through the Snohomish County website at snohomishcountywa.gov. The register is hosted by Sno-911, which is the county's consolidated dispatch center. The search is basic, but it covers all current bookings including Edmonds arrests.
The image below shows the Snohomish County jail register search interface, which Edmonds residents use to look up inmate population records for county bookings.
One thing to keep in mind about this register: it includes inmates from several different facilities within Snohomish County. Edmonds bookings will appear alongside those from Lynnwood Municipal Jail and Marysville Municipal Jail, since the register covers all three. If you are looking for an Edmonds inmate specifically, check the arresting agency field to confirm the booking source.
When a name does not appear in the county register, consider a few possibilities. The person may have been released shortly after booking if bail was posted. The charges may have been dropped before processing was complete. Or the arrest may have led to a felony charge with transfer to a facility that serves longer-term detention. For felony cases in state custody, check the Washington State DOC search at doc.wa.gov.
Note: The Snohomish County jail register reflects current custody status only and does not retain detailed booking history beyond a short window.
Public Records for Edmonds Inmate Population
Washington's Public Records Act under RCW 42.56 makes arrest records and jail booking data available to the public. You can submit a records request to Edmonds Police or Snohomish County without stating a reason. Agencies must respond within five business days. Basic arrest and booking records are generally released as a matter of course. Active investigation files may have limited portions withheld.
Under RCW 70.48.100, all county jails must maintain a public register of everyone they hold. This register must show the person's name, the date and time of confinement, and how they were released. The Snohomish County online register is maintained to satisfy this law. Edmonds bookings are part of that public record, and anyone can access the current register without cost.
For records from Edmonds Police specifically, contact the department at 250 5th Ave N, Edmonds, WA 98020, or call 425-771-0200. The department's records division handles public records requests for incident reports and arrest documentation. For records held at the Snohomish County Jail, contact the Sheriff's Office at 3025 Oakes Ave, Everett, WA 98201, or call 425-388-3395.
Court records for Edmonds cases are available through courts.wa.gov. The Edmonds Municipal Court handles low-level matters. Snohomish County District Court and Superior Court handle higher charges. These records show what happened after an arrest, including whether the case resulted in conviction, dismissal, or other resolution.
VINE Notification for Edmonds Inmates
VINE (Victim Information and Notification Everyday) provides free custody alerts for inmates held at Snohomish County facilities. You can register at VINELink.com to receive notifications by phone, text, or email when an Edmonds inmate is released, transferred, or has a court date. You do not have to give your name to use the service.
Snohomish County participates in the statewide VINE network operated by the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs. Once you register, VINE checks custody status automatically and sends alerts when changes occur. This is more reliable than manually checking the jail register, especially if you need to know about a release or transfer quickly. The service is free and covers the Snohomish County Jail where Edmonds bookings are processed.
Note: VINE updates approximately every 15 minutes and can be used to monitor multiple individuals at the same time without any cost.
State Resources for Edmonds Inmate Searches
When an Edmonds resident is convicted of a felony and sentenced to more than one year, they transfer from the county jail to a Washington State DOC facility. The DOC incarcerated person search at doc.wa.gov lets you find inmates at any of the state's 10 prisons or reentry centers. Search by name or DOC number to find the current facility and basic status.
The Washington State Patrol WATCH system at watch.wsp.wa.gov offers name-based criminal history searches for $11 per lookup.

It is the most thorough public tool for checking an Edmonds individual's criminal history.
Washington courts are searchable through courts.wa.gov, which covers case records from Snohomish County Superior Court, District Court, and Edmonds Municipal Court. Case lookup is free and shows charges, hearing dates, and outcomes.
