Maple Valley Jail Roster Quick Facts
Where to Find Maple Valley Jail Roster Data
Maple Valley is a small city tucked into the southeast corner of King County. The Maple Valley Police Department provides local law enforcement. After an arrest, the officer transports the person to a King County jail facility. King County runs the Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention, known as DAJD, which manages the jail system for the entire county.
The main tool for checking the Maple Valley jail roster is the King County DAJD inmate lookup. Type a name and the system returns current bookings with the charge, the bail, and the holding location. Under RCW 70.48.100, the jail must keep this register open to the public. The register logs each person held, the time and date of the booking, the cause, and the release details.
Access is free. No login is needed.
How to Search Maple Valley Jail Roster Records
Start at the King County DAJD page. Enter the last name of the person. You can add a first name to trim the results. The system shows the name, booking date, charges, bail amount, and current status. If the person was arrested in Maple Valley, the arresting agency line should show Maple Valley Police or the King County Sheriff.
When a name does not show up right away, wait a few hours. New bookings can take time to post. Call the Maple Valley Police records desk if you need a quick answer. The department can confirm whether a recent arrest took place and where the person was booked.

Maple Valley Jail Roster Record Details
A Maple Valley jail roster entry in the King County system shows the inmate name, age, booking date and time, the charge as booked, the bail or bond, the housing unit, and a release date if the person has been let go. Under RCW 70.48.100, that register is the public portion of the jail file. The full inmate record is held in confidence. Medical and mental health data stays sealed. Only criminal justice agencies, courts, and certain approved groups can see the rest.
Booking photos may be used for criminal investigation purposes. The King County system does not always display a photo in the public search. You can ask for a copy through a public records request if you need one.

Note: Maple Valley Municipal Court handles city-level violations only. Felony cases go to King County Superior Court.
