The detention center handles bookings for the county and keeps records on everyone who has passed through custody. You can search current inmates online, and for those no longer in custody, you can contact the jail directly. This guide walks you through every search method available, from the official online portal to phone requests and written records inquiries under the Oklahoma Open Records Act.

Comanche County Sheriff's Office and Detention Center

The Comanche County Sheriff's Office runs the detention center at 201 S. 3rd Street in Lawton. This is where all county arrests are processed and where booking records are kept. The Sheriff's Office handles inmate searches, records requests, and can tell you the custody status of anyone booked into the facility.

If you need to find someone in custody or look up a past booking, the detention center staff can help. For current inmates, the online roster is the fastest route. For people no longer in custody, you call the detention line at 580-250-1902. They can confirm whether someone was held there and provide basic booking information as allowed under state law.

How to Search Comanche County Inmate Records

Three main methods let you search inmate records in Comanche County. The online portal is the quickest for current inmates. Phone calls work well when you need to ask about someone no longer in custody. Written requests cover formal records needs and provide a paper trail.

The official inmate search portal at comanchecounty.us/149/Inmate-Search shows who is currently held at the Comanche County Detention Center. You can look up names and view charges and booking details from this page. The comanchecountyok.gov Detention Center page also links to the current inmates database. A third portal at inmates.bluhorse.com provides an online roster for the facility but requires login for full access.

For inmates no longer in custody, call the detention center at 580-250-1902. Staff can confirm basic booking facts including name, charges, and release date. They cannot provide records for people no longer under supervision beyond what the Oklahoma Open Records Act allows.

Send written requests to the address below. Include the full name of the person, approximate dates of custody, and your contact information. The office will respond within a reasonable time as required by state law.

The Comanche County Detention Center online inmate roster is hosted through the Bluhorse system and lists current bookings at the facility.

What Comanche County Inmate Records Include

Booking records at the Comanche County Detention Center contain the information that law enforcement is required to make public under Oklahoma Statutes Title 51, Section 24A.8. The law spells out what a law enforcement agency must release and what it may keep private.

Public booking information includes the full name of the person booked, their age, a physical description, the date and time of booking, the charges filed, and the bond amount set. These facts are available to anyone who asks. Records also typically show the inmate's booking number, housing assignment, and scheduled court date. Items that may be withheld include home address details, information about ongoing investigations, and records that could put someone at risk.

Note: An arrest record is not proof of guilt. All people booked into the Comanche County Detention Center are presumed innocent unless convicted by a court.

The Comanche County official government site maintains information about the detention center and its inmate database.

From this page you can access the current inmates database, find inmate mail procedures, and get contact information for the facility in Lawton.

Oklahoma Open Records Act and Released Inmate Records

The Oklahoma Open Records Act, found at Title 51, Sections 24A.1 through 24A.29, gives the public the right to inspect and copy records held by government agencies. Law enforcement records are covered under Section 24A.8, which requires agencies to make booking information available.

There is a key exception for released inmates. Under the Act, information on individuals who have been released from custody and are no longer under supervision is a closed record. This means the Comanche County Detention Center cannot give out details about past inmates who have completed their sentence and have no ongoing supervision. For people currently in custody or recently released and still under supervision, the standard public access rules apply.

If you believe a records request was wrongly denied, you can contact the Oklahoma Open Records Act administrator or seek guidance from the state Attorney General's office. Agencies must respond to records requests during regular business hours and may charge reasonable fees for copying.

Note: Fees for document reproduction may apply. Contact the Comanche County Sheriff's Office at 580-250-1902 to ask about current rates before you submit a formal request.

The Comanche County Sheriff's Office inmate search page at comanchecounty.us allows you to look up current detainees held at the Lawton detention center.

The portal shows charges and booking details and serves as the primary official online tool for finding current Comanche County inmates.

Oklahoma DOC Offender Lookup and Released Records

The Oklahoma Department of Corrections runs a statewide offender search at okoffender.doc.ok.gov. This tool covers people currently in DOC custody across all state facilities. You can search by name, DOC number, or date of birth. It does not show county jail records.

For people who have been released from state prison, DOC records are closed. To get information on a released state inmate, you must file a Closed Records Request directly with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections. Contact DOC at P.O. Box 11400, Oklahoma City, OK 73136-0400, or call 405-425-2500. The county jail and the state prison system are separate. A booking at Comanche County Detention Center means the person was held locally, not necessarily in a state facility.

Court Records: OSCN and ODCR

Two online systems let you search Oklahoma court records connected to Comanche County criminal cases. The Oklahoma State Courts Network at oscn.net is a free public portal. You can search by name, case number, or court type. It shows case filings, docket entries, charges, and dispositions going back many years.

On Demand Court Records at odcr.com is a second system that covers participating Oklahoma courts. It allows searches by court, party name, case number, case type, and filing date. Both systems give you a window into what happened in court after someone was booked, including outcomes of criminal charges tied to a Comanche County arrest.

For a full criminal history criminal history search on a named person, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation at osbi.ok.gov handles name-based searches for $15 and fingerprint-based searches for $19. The OSBI is at 6600 N. Harvey, Oklahoma City, OK 73116, and can be reached at (405) 848-6724.
