Oxnard Busted Mugshots

Oxnard busted mugshots are processed through the Ventura County jail system because Oxnard is the largest city in Ventura County. With a population over 200,000, Oxnard generates a significant share of the county's total bookings. The Oxnard Police Department handles city arrests, but the Ventura County Sheriff runs the jail where booking and mugshot intake takes place. This page covers how to find busted mugshots from Oxnard arrests, the online inmate search tools available, and how to request older booking records through public records channels.

Where Oxnard Busted Mugshots Are Stored

The Oxnard Police Department is the primary law enforcement agency in the city. Officers make arrests, but they do not operate a local jail. Arrested individuals go to the Ventura County jail for booking. The Ventura County Sheriff's Office runs the jail facilities and handles all bookings in the county. The mugshot is taken during the booking process and stored in the county system.

Ventura County operates the Todd Road Jail and the Pre-Trial Detention Facility in Ventura. Both facilities handle bookings from Oxnard PD, the sheriff's office, and all other law enforcement agencies in the county. The Todd Road Jail is a newer facility with a capacity of over 700 beds. The booking record, including the mugshot, enters the countywide database regardless of which facility the person is housed in.
