What Cameron Parish Booking Records Show
Cameron Parish 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 record. The public portion of a booking record includes the person's name and identifying information, the charges filed, the booking date and time, and the location of the alleged offense.
Through phone inquiries to the Cameron Parish Jail or the LAVINE roster, you can access current custody status, bond information where available, and the charges associated with a booking. Records tied to active investigations are not public under R.S. 44:3 and can be withheld by the sheriff's office.
Note: A booking is not a conviction. Everyone booked at the Cameron Parish Jail is presumed innocent until a court finds otherwise.
