Murray County Overview
Murray County Sheriff and Detention
The Murray County Sheriff's Office operates the county jail and processes booking releases for all arrests made in the county. When someone is taken into custody, staff records their name, charges, bond amount, and personal details. Release records are created when bond is posted, a sentence ends, or a court issues a release order.
Murray County is one of the smaller counties in the state. The jail typically holds a modest number of inmates at any given time. Even so, booking records pile up over the years and the sheriff must keep them accessible under state law. You can visit the office in Sulphur during business hours to request records. Phone calls work for quick lookups, but more detailed requests may need a written submission.

How to Find Murray County Booking Releases
The Oklahoma State Courts Network is the fastest free tool for searching Murray County court records. Select Murray from the county list, type a name, and see what comes up. The results show case types, charges, court dates, and how the case ended. OSCN does not display the raw jail booking log, but it gives you the court side of an arrest.
Check the DOC offender search if you believe someone ended up in state prison. The database covers all state facilities and shows sentence length, facility location, and release projections. It updates regularly and is free to use.
For records not on OSCN, try the On Demand Court Records system. ODCR covers additional courts in Oklahoma. You can search by name and filter by county. Basic case list results are free.
Murray County Court Records
Criminal cases in Murray County start at the district court in Sulphur. The District Court Clerk files charges, tracks hearings, and stores final orders. These records show what happened after someone was booked into the county jail. You can find charging documents, plea agreements, and sentencing records through OSCN or in person at the courthouse.
Most court records in Murray County are open to the public. Juvenile cases and sealed records are exceptions. The clerk's office charges for certified copies but allows free inspection of most files during regular hours. If you need a record for legal purposes, you will want a certified copy with the clerk's stamp on it.
Note: New case filings may take a day or two to appear in the OSCN system, so check back if a very recent arrest does not show up right away.
