All 72 hour booking records in Becker County come through this office. When a deputy or local officer makes an arrest, the person goes to the jail at the same address.

After the booking, the case moves to the courts. Becker County is in the 7th Judicial District. You can look up court cases through Minnesota Court Records Online. For statewide inmate searches, try the DOC Public Viewer or the VINE notification system.
