How Booking Works in Glenn County
Glenn County's jail is at 141 South Lassen Street in Willows. When a person gets arrested by the Glenn County Sheriff or by any other law enforcement agency operating in the county, they are brought here. Booking happens at the jail. Staff record the person's name, date of birth, and physical details. They log the charges and set bail based on the county schedule. A photo is taken. This all goes into the booking record.
The California Highway Patrol patrols Interstate 5 through Glenn County and makes arrests that end up at the county jail. Same goes for any state game wardens or federal officers who make arrests in the area. All roads lead to the Glenn County jail for booking. Under Government Code Section 7923.610, the Sheriff must share booking details with the public. That is why the daily PDFs get posted.
Glenn County has a small jail with limited capacity. Some people get booked and released the same day on bail or a citation. Others wait in custody until their court hearing.
Glenn County Arrest Record Details
Each Glenn County booking log entry contains the core facts about an arrest. State law spells out what agencies must share. The data includes the full name of the person, their date of birth, the date and time of arrest and booking, the specific charges, and the bail amount. This is the same data required across all California counties under the state's public records laws.
Glenn County booking records may also note the arresting agency and the location of the arrest. If someone was picked up on a warrant from another county, that hold may be listed as well. Under Penal Code Section 13300, the Sheriff keeps a local summary criminal history for each person booked. The public portion of this record is what appears in the daily booking log PDFs that Glenn County posts online.
