Roseville Inmate Data and California Law

Booking records from Roseville arrests are public. Government Code 6254(f) requires law enforcement to release arrest information. Names, charges, bail amounts, and booking dates are all public data. The Placer County Sheriff follows this by posting inmate records on the ATIMS search portal. You do not need to give a reason to search. The Roseville Police Department also complies with records requests for arrest reports.

Full criminal history is restricted. Penal Code 11105 limits access to complete criminal background reports. Only the individual, authorized agencies, and certain employers can get them. The jail search is not a background check. It only shows who is in custody right now. For your own criminal record, visit a Live Scan site in Roseville and pay $25 to the California DOJ.
