Boaz City Jail Mugshots
Find Boaz’s official jail and police-record contacts, ask whether a booking photograph is releasable, and avoid mistaking a jail-facility gallery for inmate records.
The Boaz jail photo gallery shows the facility
Do not treat it as a booking-photo roster
The city’s Police Department Jail Facility gallery contains images of the jail pod, holding area and recreation area. Those facility pictures do not identify booked individuals. To ask about a particular booking photograph, use the jail and records contacts below; the gallery is not evidence that a person is or was held there.
Choose the Boaz office according to the information sought

| Is this the correct jail for the booking? | Jail / Dispatch: 256-593-6812 or 256-593-6842. | Have the person’s name and approximate booking date. Ask the division to confirm the facility or appropriate contact. |
| Can I obtain the booking photograph or related report? | Police Records: 256-593-5743. | Specify that you want a booking photograph, a report, or both. Do not assume a request for one includes the other. |

Give Records enough detail to identify the requested item
-
✓
Separate the name from the event
The Records page lists name, report date, place of occurrence, report number and reporting officer among helpful details. Not every item is required. Provide what you know and identify uncertain dates as approximate.
-
✓
Ask whether the photograph exists and can be released
The city warns that some records or information are restricted to involved parties, a designee or release by court order. A publicly described jail does not guarantee public access to every booking image.
-
✓
Clarify the required output
Ask whether an available record is a photograph, incident report or another document, then confirm any copy cost and delivery procedure. A report or booking image does not itself supply the court’s later disposition.
