Anderson County 72 Hour Booking Portal

The main tool for checking recent arrests is the ISOMS 72 hour booking portal. This portal shows every person booked into the Anderson County jail in the past 72 hours. It loads fast and does not need a login. The data updates in real time, so new bookings show up as soon as they are processed.

Each record on the ISOMS portal shows the full name, age, race, and sex of the person booked. You also see the intake date and time, their city, and which agency made the arrest. Anderson County's system pulls in arrests from the Sheriff's Office, Clinton Police, Oak Ridge Police, Rocky Top Police, Norris Police, Oliver Springs Police, and the 7th Judicial Crime Task Force. That makes it one of the most complete multi-agency booking systems in Tennessee. Bond amounts are shown for each charge, and a classification field tells you if the person is a pretrial felon or a misdemeanor hold. Under Tenn. Code Ann. § 10-7-503, these booking records are public and open to any citizen of the state during business hours.
