Carroll County Quick Facts
Carroll County Sheriff's Office
The Carroll County Sheriff's Office runs the county jail and handles all local law enforcement operations. The jail sits at 1000 Newnan Road in Carrollton. You can call the main jail line at (770) 830-5888 or the reception desk at (770) 830-5916 for questions about inmates or jail mugshots.
The sheriff's office manages everything from intake to release. When someone is booked, staff take a jail mugshot, record the charges, set a bond amount, and assign the inmate to a housing unit. Carroll County is one of the larger counties in western Georgia, so the jail stays busy. The facility handles arrests from Carrollton, smaller towns in the county, and unincorporated areas under the sheriff's jurisdiction.
Carroll County also has a PREA hotline for reporting abuse or misconduct. The number is 1-888-992-7849. This is a separate line from the general jail phone and is monitored for inmate safety reports.
Search Carroll County Inmates Online
Carroll County runs an online inmate search portal through InteropWeb. This is the best tool for finding current Carroll County jail mugshots. You can search by first name, last name, or both. Results show the inmate's booking photo, charges, bond amount, and other details.
The portal updates throughout the day as new bookings come in. There is also a page that shows inmates booked in the last 24 hours. This is helpful if you are looking for someone recently arrested. The 24-hour page gives a quick view without having to run a full name search.
Both the full inmate search and the 24-hour list are free to use. You do not need to create an account or pay a fee. The data comes directly from the jail's booking system, so it is more current than third-party sites. If the person you are looking for has been released or transferred, they may not show up on the active roster anymore.

Bond types accepted in Carroll County include cash bonds, surety bonds through a bail bondsman, property bonds, and money orders. The magistrate court sets initial bond amounts for most charges. If the judge denies bond, the inmate stays in jail until their case goes through the court system. Under O.C.G.A. § 35-1-19, the jail mugshot taken at booking remains on file regardless of how the case turns out, unless the person later gets a record restriction.
Georgia Mugshot Access Rules
Carroll County jail mugshots fall under Georgia's state rules on booking photo disclosure. O.C.G.A. § 35-1-19 limits how law enforcement can share these photos. The sheriff's office cannot hand over a booking photo unless the requester signs a written statement confirming the image will not go on a commercial mugshot site. This protects people booked at the Carroll County jail from online exploitation.
If your Carroll County arrest ended in a dismissal or acquittal, record restriction may be an option. O.C.G.A. § 35-3-37 lets you apply to seal your arrest record from public access. A restricted record means the jail mugshot, charges, and all booking data are no longer visible through standard searches. You file through the court or the arresting agency.
Georgia also bans mugshot removal fees. Under O.C.G.A. § 10-1-393.5, sites that post booking photos and charge to take them down are breaking the law. The Georgia Consumer Protection Division accepts complaints about these sites. If your Carroll County jail mugshot is posted on a pay-for-removal site, file a complaint with the state. Under the Open Records Act at O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70, you can also request copies of your own records from the sheriff's office, and they must respond within three business days.
Note: Copy fees for open records requests are capped at 10 cents per page under O.C.G.A. § 50-18-71.
