This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, arrange a release or bond, or obtain an official booking record. For a current custody answer or a record request, use the appropriate public office below.
Official Pemiscot Record Contacts
For a local booking, custody question, or sheriff-held arrest record, begin with the official Pemiscot County Sheriff’s Office. The county identifies Sheriff Joe Bryant and the Justice Center at the contact below. Its published units include Jail, Road Patrol, Investigations, and Warrants and Records. The county has not published a verified public roster, booking-photo feed, fee table, records-request form, dedicated records email, or sheriff app.
Pemiscot County Sheriff’s Office / Justice Center

Ask the operator for the current public-records custodian, the accepted request method, and an estimate before authorizing a search. County administrative hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a noon to 1 p.m. closure. Those administrative hours do not establish jail or dispatch hours. Call 911 for an emergency.
For a written Missouri Sunshine Law request, identify the person and approximate event date, name the specific record sought, and ask whether a booking photograph is maintained and releasable. Under RSMo § 610.023, a public body generally must respond as soon as possible and no later than the end of the third business day; a denial must identify its legal basis. RSMo § 610.026 permits 10 cents per standard paper page and qualifying duplication or research charges, so request an estimate. No Pemiscot-specific booking-photo fee schedule was verified.
When the booking record and the later case record are not the same question, the county directory lists Circuit Clerk Tonya Hillhouse, 610 Ward Avenue, Caruthersville, MO 63830, phone 573-333-0182, and Prosecuting Attorney Steve Horton at the Justice Center, PO Box 1117, Caruthersville, MO 63830, phone 573-333-2738. The Circuit Clerk’s official page links to Missouri Case.net. The prosecutor and clerk can address their own offices’ records, not replace a sheriff custody check.
- For an arrest, booking sheet, current local custody, or a question about whether a photograph is releasable, use the sheriff contact above and ask for the records custodian. The home guide explains the official-source sequence.
- For a current release question, call the sheriff because no verified public Pemiscot release roster or alert service was located. MOVANS is a separate official notification system, not a county booking-photo source.
- For a county warrant-status question, ask the sheriff’s Warrants and Records unit through 573-333-4101. The Most Wanted guide explains why a dated web mention cannot verify a current warrant.
- For a court filing, docket entry, hearing, or disposition after an arrest, use the Circuit Clerk route and the official Case.net link on its page.
- For a city arrest report, contact the arresting department in Caruthersville, Hayti, or Steele; city policing and county custody are not always the same system.
- For a sentenced or supervised state prisoner, use the Missouri Department of Corrections offender search. It is separate from a current county booking record and is not a confirmed public booking-photo source.
- For federal custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator. For immigration custody, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator; neither is a Pemiscot County roster.
