What Central Booking Records Show
Central booking records are public under Louisiana Revised Statute 44:3(4)(a), which makes the booking of a person under Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 228 a public document. The public portion includes the person's name and identifying information, the charges filed, the booking date and time, and the location of the alleged offense.
CPD city records are obtained through the department directly; EBRSO parish jail records appear on the LAVINE system and through the 24/7 inmate information line. Records tied to active investigations or pending criminal litigation are not public under R.S. 44:3 and can be withheld while cases remain open.
Note: A booking records an arrest, not a conviction. Everyone booked in Central or held at the East Baton Rouge Parish Jail is presumed innocent unless a court determines otherwise.
