How to Find an Inmate at Robert Presley Detention Center
Riverside County uses a countywide Inmate Information System. Search the person first, then confirm that the detailed record currently lists Robert Presley Detention Center as the housing facility.
Open Riverside County’s official inmate search
Use the Sheriff’s JIMS database rather than a third-party people-search or mugshot site.
Choose the strongest search information you have
You can search by booking number or use the person’s last name, first name, date of birth and sex to narrow the result.
Select the correct booking number
The results page links the booking number to the detailed custody record.
Read the Current Facility field
Only use Robert Presley-specific visiting or property instructions if the current record shows RPDC.
Save the booking number
Riverside County requires it for inmate mail and it is useful when speaking with jail staff.
No Result? Try This Before Assuming the Person Was Released
Recent arrests may still be processing, and a Riverside County inmate may be housed somewhere other than Robert Presley. Use the countywide search rather than checking RPDC alone.
Arrest happened today
Booking may not be complete. Call 951-955-4500 if you need to confirm whether the person has entered Riverside County custody.
The person was previously at RPDC
Reopen the inmate record. The Current Facility or Release Date fields may show that custody changed.
How to Read a Riverside County Booking Record
The Sheriff’s detailed inmate page can answer much more than “is this person in jail?” Read the fields before making unnecessary calls.
| Field | What to do with it |
|---|---|
| Booking Number | Save it. You may need it for mail, court research and jail questions. |
| Arrest Date / Time | Use it to distinguish a new booking from an older custody event. |
| Arresting Agency | Shows which law-enforcement agency made or processed the arrest. |
| Booked Date / Time | Shows when Riverside County booked the person into custody. |
| Case Number | Use it when searching Riverside Superior Court. |
| Bail Amount | Shows the bail value currently displayed for the booking or charge. |
| Current Facility | Confirms whether the inmate is still at Robert Presley or has moved. |
| Housing Unit | Can help determine facility-specific visiting scheduling. |
| Next Court Date | Use it as a lead, then verify current court information with the court. |
| Court Name | Identifies the courthouse connected with the listed hearing. |
| Release Date | May indicate release when a date is populated. |
| Charges | Review every line because bail and disposition can vary by charge. |
After You Confirm the Inmate Is at Robert Presley
Save the identity and custody data first. Then work through the next practical task rather than reopening the same inmate-search page repeatedly.
Keep it with the inmate’s exact booked name.
Make sure the person is still at Robert Presley.
Do not judge release eligibility from one charge alone.
Use it to avoid paying for an unnecessary name search.
RPDC visitation requires advance scheduling.
Follow current Riverside money and mail instructions.
Bail for an Inmate at Robert Presley Detention Center
Start with the Bail Amount field in the live inmate record. California bail rules can depend on the offense, warrant, court order, enhancements and whether the person has multiple cases.
If an amount appears
Save the amount, booking number, case number and charge list before asking about the release process.
If there is no simple amount
The charge may require court review, another release protocol or a case-specific order.
The schedule also explains that multiple counts and multiple cases can affect the release protocol. This is why one number copied from one charge may not tell you the inmate’s complete release situation.
Read every charge and case entry
Do not stop after the first displayed bail amount.
Record the case number
Use it to check later court activity without paying for a name search.
Confirm current release requirements
Use RPDC or the appropriate Riverside court before sending money.
Find the Criminal Court Case in Riverside
The jail record is best for custody. Riverside Superior Court Public Access is the better resource for criminal case information and available docket details.
Check the inmate page for a case number
Using the exact case number can save both time and a paid name-search credit.
Open Riverside Superior Court Public Access
The court currently requires an online account for portal use.
Search by case number when possible
The court currently provides case-number searches without a name-search charge.
Use a paid name search only when necessary
Current name-search pricing starts at $1 for one search credit.
| Search / Service | Published Cost |
|---|---|
| Case-number lookup | Free when the required case information is known. |
| 1 name-search credit | $1 |
| 5 name-search credits | $3.50 |
| 10 name-search credits | $5 |
| 75 name-search credits | $25 |
| Court-performed name search | $15 per name. |
| Online document purchase | $1/page for first 5 pages, then $0.50/page, capped at $50 per document. |
Public Access does not itself create an official certified court record. Contact the appropriate courthouse when you need certified documents.
