Logan County Online Roster and Recent Arrests
The online inmate roster is the best free tool for a Logan County recent arrests search. Visit loganso.com/roster.php to pull up the list. Data on the page shows about 55 current inmates at any one time. Each entry has a booking number, booking date, charges, and bond amount. The list can be searched by name and has pagination for longer lists.
The state CourtConnect portal shown above backs up the county roster for Logan County court data. Once a new booking leads to a charging paper at circuit court, the case will post to CourtConnect. Search by name, file date, or case number. For people already released, the roster also has a 48-hour release list at loganso.com/roster-choose. That page has two options, current inmates and 48-hour release.
Sample charges on the Logan County roster include DUI, possession of a controlled substance, battery, theft, and failure to appear. The data is updated by jail staff as new bookings post. Past bookings drop off when the person is released. That is normal for Arkansas county jail rosters.
