Trousdale County 72 Hour Booking Roster

Trousdale County does have an online inmate roster. You can look up people in custody by booking number or name. The roster shows who is in jail right now.

The jail has a capacity of 105 inmates. For a county this size, turnover is relatively low. But the 72 hour booking records still change regularly. If you need to check on someone, the online roster is the fastest way. You do not need an account or a login.

If the person you are looking for is not on the roster, they may have already bonded out or been released. You can also try the Tennessee Felony Offender Search if you think they were transferred to state custody.
