Iron County Sheriff and Jail
The Iron County Sheriff's Office handles all arrests and jail operations in the county. The office sits at 2132 N Main, Cedar City, UT. You can reach them by phone at (435) 867-7555 or by email at sheriff@ironcounty.net. Staff process bookings around the clock and maintain records for every person brought into custody.
Iron County is home to Cedar City, Southern Utah University, and a growing population along the Interstate 15 corridor. Most arrests come from Cedar City, but the Sheriff's jurisdiction covers the entire county, including Parowan, Enoch, and Brian Head. The jail sees a mix of misdemeanor and felony bookings. Each arrest generates a booking report that includes personal details, charges, and bail amounts. The Iron County government website provides links to law enforcement services and public records.
Note: The Iron County jail is the only booking facility for the county, so all arrest records flow through this one location.
Iron County Online Booking Reports
Iron County offers two online tools for searching booking data. The recent bookings page and the current inmates page both update every 10 minutes. This makes Iron County one of the more transparent counties in Utah for jail data access. You do not need an account or login to view these pages.
The Iron County recent bookings page shows a rolling list of new arrests. Each entry displays the booking number, full name, age, gender, height, weight, charges, statute, degree, bail, and bond status. This is a rich set of data that many other Utah counties do not provide online. The page refreshes itself, so the information stays current throughout the day.
The Iron County Sheriff's website is shown here on the county homepage.
The county website links directly to booking tools and jail roster pages for public access.
The current inmates page works in a similar way. It shows who is in custody right now. If someone was booked and then released, they will drop off this list. Together, these two pages let you track both new bookings and ongoing custody in Iron County.
Iron County Booking Records Requests
For older booking reports that no longer appear on the online pages, Iron County accepts formal records requests. The county uses the GRAMA process, which stands for the Government Records Access and Management Act. You can file a request using a fillable PDF form available on the Sheriff's website.
The Iron County GRAMA request page has the form you need. You can submit it in person at the Sheriff's Office, by email, or by mail. Under Utah Code 63G-2, the county has 10 business days to respond to your request. Be specific about the person's name and the date range you need. This helps Iron County staff pull the right booking report from their system.
Most Iron County booking reports are public records. Some details may be redacted if they involve juveniles or protected information. The county may charge a small fee for paper copies. Digital copies sent by email are often free or low cost.
What Iron County Booking Reports Show
An Iron County booking report contains a full set of data about an arrest. The report is created when an officer brings someone to the jail. Staff record the person's name, age, gender, height, and weight. They assign a unique booking number to each arrest event. Charges are listed with the statute, the degree of the offense, and bail information.
Iron County booking reports also show bond status. This tells you if the person posted bail, is held without bail, or is waiting for a court hearing. The arresting agency is listed too. In Iron County, bookings may come from the Sheriff's Office, Cedar City Police, Parowan Police, or the Utah Highway Patrol. All of these agencies bring arrested persons to the Iron County jail for processing.

- Full name, age, and physical description
- List of charges with statute and degree

Note: Booking reports reflect charges at the time of arrest and may not show final court outcomes or plea changes.
State Records for Iron County
Iron County arrest data feeds into statewide databases managed by Utah agencies. The Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification collects arrest records from all 29 Utah counties. You can request a criminal history search through BCI if you need records that go beyond what Iron County posts online.
The Utah Department of Corrections offender search is useful if someone booked in Iron County was later sent to state prison. This tool covers state inmates and parolees. For historical records, the Utah State Archives criminal records guide explains how to access older arrest data. These state tools can fill gaps when local Iron County records are hard to find.
Iron County Record Expungement
Some Iron County booking reports can be sealed through expungement. Utah law allows certain arrests and convictions to be removed from public view. The process starts with a review of your criminal history through BCI's expungement page. You then file a petition with the court that handled your case.
Not every Iron County arrest qualifies for expungement. The type of offense, time since the case ended, and your overall record all matter. If the court grants your petition, Iron County must seal the booking report. Sealed records do not appear in standard public searches. The process takes several months and involves filing fees. The BCI website has details on the steps and requirements.
