How the Ottawa County Inmate Search Works
Search the Ottawa County roster by last name, first name or a word from the listed charge. Names may be spelled differently in booking records, so try the last name on its own first. When the public feed omits charges or bond, the official inmate search for Ottawa County Jail (ottawacountysook.gov/inmate-search) has the full booking record.
A new booking can appear several hours after the arrest, and a person transferred to another facility will drop off this list. Nearby county jails in Oklahoma, such as Osage, Pawnee, Okmulgee, keep separate rosters; someone arrested across a county line will be booked there instead. Oklahoma and Tulsa counties publish inmate searches.
This roster covers Ottawa County Jail only; it is not a statewide Oklahoma inmate search. People sentenced to state prison are listed by the state department of corrections. County sheriffs run jails.
Posting Bail at Ottawa County Jail
Oklahoma surety bondsmen are local. A Cleveland County bondsman may not post Oklahoma County. First appearance practice follows the county. Bail bond agents must be licensed in Oklahoma and approved to post bonds at this jail.

If the person also has a hold from another county or state, posting the Ottawa County bond may not lead to release. The jail or the defense attorney can confirm which holds are active.
