Iberville Parish booking reports are managed by the Sheriff's Office in Plaquemine. The parish stretches along the Mississippi River in south-central Louisiana, and the sheriff's department keeps records for every arrest made in the area. If you need to look up who was booked into the Iberville Parish Jail, you can call the main office or reach one of the substations. Booking records in this parish are public under state law.

Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office Records

Sheriff Stassi runs the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office from the main location at 58050 Meriam Street in Plaquemine. This is where booking records are created and stored when someone gets arrested in the parish. Staff at this office can help you look up who was booked, what they were charged with, and when the arrest took place.

The sheriff's department also runs two substations to cover the parish. The Maringouin substation sits at 77180 Ridgewood Drive and can be reached at (225) 625-2365. The St. Gabriel substation is at 2085 Highway 30, and their number is (225) 642-5703. Both substations handle law enforcement for their areas, but booking records are centralized through the main office in Plaquemine. If you call a substation about a booking report, they may direct you to the main number.

The Iberville Parish Sheriff's website provides general information about the department and its services. Sheriff Stassi has said the site is designed to give citizens easy ways to get information and communicate with staff. You can also use it to pay taxes or traffic tickets online.

Iberville Parish Records and Louisiana Law

Louisiana's public records laws give you the right to see Iberville Parish booking reports. The Louisiana Public Records Act under RS 44:1 says all records used in public business must be available to anyone who asks. The sheriff's office is a public body. Its records fall under this law.

There is a key distinction in how Louisiana handles different record types. Booking records are open. Comprehensive criminal history is not. The Louisiana State Police maintains the LACCH system, which holds full criminal histories. Under RS 15:587, those records are only available to authorized agencies. Louisiana is a closed record state for that kind of data. But booking reports are a separate category. RS 44:3 makes them public. So when you ask the Iberville Parish Sheriff for a booking report, they must let you see it.

State-level offender records held by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections are also mostly confidential. Under RS 15:574.12, only limited information is public: age, offense, conviction date, sentence length, and misconduct while incarcerated. For everything else, you need the parish-level booking report from Iberville.

Costs for Iberville Parish Booking Reports

Inspecting booking reports at the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office is free. You can look at them without charge. If you want paper copies, expect a small per-page fee.
