Find a Brevard County Jail Inmate and Check the Booking Record
If someone was arrested in Cocoa, Melbourne, Palm Bay, Titusville, Rockledge, Cape Canaveral, West Melbourne or another part of Brevard County, the best starting point is the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office inmate-search system. It can be used to locate current and previous booking records connected with the Brevard County Jail Complex.

How to Search the Brevard County Jail Roster
- Open the official inmate search. Visit the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office inmate-search portal.
- Start with the last name. Enter the person’s last name. Add the first name only if too many matches appear.
- Use a date range if useful. The portal provides From Date and To Date fields.
- Use an ID when available. A Subject Number or Booking Number can narrow the search considerably.
- Open the matching result. Compare identifying details rather than relying only on a matching name.
- Review the booking. Check custody or release status, booking date, charges, bond and available court information.
- Continue to the court record when needed. Use a displayed case or docket number in the Brevard Clerk’s BECA system.

How to Check a Brevard County Criminal Court Case
A jail record and a court record answer different questions. The jail database is best for custody and booking information. The Brevard Electronic Court Application, commonly called BECA, is the Clerk of Court system for available court records.
- Find the correct inmate in the BCSO search.
- Write down the full name and any case or docket number shown.
- Open the Brevard County Clerk Case Search.
- Select the public court-record search after reviewing the disclaimer.
- Search by case information or party information.
- Compare the court case carefully with the jail booking before relying on it.
Use the court system when you need hearing history, filed case information or the eventual disposition. Protected, sealed or otherwise restricted material may not be available to general public users.
Bond and Release Information
Before paying anything, open the inmate’s current booking again and check every charge and bond entry. A single booking can contain several charges with different release conditions.
- Full bond payment: BCSO lists cashier’s check, certified check or money order payable to the Brevard County Clerk of Courts.
- Cash or credit card: BCSO currently directs eligible payments through TouchPay. The depositor should have the inmate’s CID number and full name.
- Purge payment: a court-ordered delinquent amount may require payment of the full purge.
- Bail bond agent: families may independently select a licensed bail bond agent. The Sheriff’s Office does not recommend a particular company.
Check current BCSO bond instructions immediately before sending money.
