Sheriff Online Information System - CURRENTLY OFFLINE

***This system will go offline on 9/25/2024.

A new updated system will replace it, and is expected to be live by 11/1/2024.***

The Del Norte County Sheriff's Office is upgrading from our 30 year-old Law Enforcement, Corrections, and Dispatch software to a new, modern system. During the transition, our public online information system (for viewing call logs and booking information) will be down for roughly 30 days. We understand this is an inconvenience but ask for your patience as we implement this much-needed upgrade to our operations. 

Our online information system will also be impacted by a recent 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling in the case of Houston v. Maricopa County. Due to this ruling, the Del Norte County Sheriff's Office will no longer be posting booking photographs of arrestees. 

Additional information on this ruling can be found on JUSTIA at: https://law.justia.com/.../23-15524-2024-09-05.html....
