Tulsa County Overview
Tulsa County Sheriff and David L. Moss
The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office operates the David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center at 300 North Denver Avenue in Tulsa, OK 74103. This is the primary detention facility for the whole county. When law enforcement officers in Tulsa County make an arrest on misdemeanor or felony charges, the person gets booked at David L. Moss. The booking process is thorough. Each person goes through the intake area where officers review arrest reports, enter data into computer records, and process the prisoner.
New inmates are searched to prevent contraband. Staff evaluate their physical condition, inform them of charges, take a photograph, collect fingerprints, and let them make phone calls. Further interviews determine housing placement. Inmates who cannot post bond get dressed in jail uniforms and sent to housing units. The facility uses verbal de-escalation techniques with uncooperative inmates and provides continuous monitoring throughout the facility. The booking record for each person includes their name, mugshot, age, charges, booking number, booking date, court date, and bond amount.
The Inmate Information Center on the sheriff's website lets you search current inmates by name or booking number. Results show charges, bond amounts, booking dates, and photos when available. The system gets updated throughout the day. This is the fastest way to check if someone is in custody at David L. Moss right now.
