Where to Ask for Official Records
Somerset County custody and criminal-case records are split by function. Use the jail for current local custody, the courts for filed criminal cases, the State's Attorney for prosecution and victim-notification routing, and state or federal locators only when the person is outside local jail custody.
- Somerset County Sheriff's Office: 7920 Crisfield Highway, Westover, MD 21871; phone 410-651-9225; fax 410-651-1142. Sheriff Ronnie Howard is listed by the county as sheriff.
- Somerset County Detention Center: 30474 Revells Neck Road, Westover, MD 21871; jail information line 410-651-9223 or 410-651-9224. Start here for a recent county booking, local hold, visiting change, or inmate ID needed for phone or deposit setup.
- County jail record help: use jail inmate records for the official roster path and Public Information Act fallback.
- Booking-photo questions: use jail roster mugshots first, then ask the jail or use the Sheriff PIA process if a photo is not visible online.
- Charges after arrest: use court records after a jail arrest, Maryland Judiciary Case Search, and the Circuit Court for Somerset County Clerk's Office at 30512 Prince William Street, Princess Anne, MD 21853; main phone 410-845-4840; Criminal Department 410-845-4850; public criminal-record hours 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

- Specific facilities: use the facility pages in the footer for Somerset County Detention Center and Eastern Correctional Institution.
- Sentenced Maryland prisoners: use the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services Incarcerated Individual Locator at dpscs.maryland.gov/services/ii-locator.shtml. This is separate from the county jail roster.
