Broome Recent Arrests: Mugshots, Bookings & Records

Broome County Sheriff’s Office publishes weekly arrest updates alongside individual news releases. The page is useful for recent BCSO activity, but the Sheriff’s own notice says not all arrests or investigations are posted.

1. 1

   Open the official Sheriff News Releases page

   Go directly to Broome County Sheriff News Releases. Look under the current year for entries labeled BCSO Weekly Arrests.

2. 2

   Start with the newest weekly post

   As of September 15, 2026, the latest weekly arrest entry visible on the Sheriff’s page was September 10, 2026, preceded by September 2 and August 26. Recheck the page because newer posts can appear after this article is published.

3. 3

   Confirm the arresting agency

   A BCSO weekly list covers arrests reported by the Sheriff’s Office. An arrest handled by Binghamton Police, Johnson City Police, Endicott Police, Vestal Police, New York State Police or another agency may require that agency’s record route instead.

4. 4

   Compare identity details carefully

   Use the legal name, age or date of birth when available, arrest date, municipality, charge wording and arresting agency. Do not identify someone solely because a name is similar.

5. 5

   Move to jail inquiries for current custody

   A weekly arrest release tells you about an arrest event; it does not guarantee the person remains incarcerated. Call 607-778-1911 and select Option 2 when current county-jail custody is the question.

6. 6

   Move to court records for the legal outcome

   Use New York WebCrims and the correct local court when you need a court date, case status or disposition.

The Broome County Sheriff’s Corrections Division operates a 536-bed direct-supervision correctional facility in the Town of Dickinson. If your real question is “Is this person still in jail?”, the Sheriff’s jail-inquiry phone route is more appropriate than an old mugshot page or unrelated county roster.

The current Corrections Division schedule is different from older visitation hours that remain on some jail-directory websites. Use the schedule below as a planning aid, then recheck the official Corrections page before traveling because the facility can change or reassign visitation times.

Broome County’s official GovPayNet page lists Cash Bail Pay Location Code #1657. The same county page also lists a different code—#5900—for Civil Division payments. Do not confuse the two.

1. 1

   Confirm the person and current bail status

   Do not begin with a payment screen. First verify the person’s identity and current custody/bail information through Broome County’s jail-inquiry route or the appropriate court.

2. 2

   Open Broome County’s own GovPayNet page

   Start at Broome County GovPayNet. The county page identifies the correct cash-bail Pay Location Code and links to the payment provider.

3. 3

   Use Pay Location Code 1657 for cash bail

   Check the name, amount, code and payment details before submitting. The Civil Division’s code 5900 is for a different purpose.

4. 4

   Save the payment confirmation

   Keep the receipt or confirmation number. A payment confirmation does not guarantee immediate physical release if other holds, paperwork or court conditions remain.

What if you think there is a Broome County warrant?

The Sheriff’s Warrants Division lists 607-778-2923 and 607-778-2933 for warrant questions. If you see a wanted person or there is an immediate safety concern, the Sheriff directs the public to 607-778-1911 or 911. Anonymous tips can be left at 607-778-1196.

An arrest record answers a different question from a court record. If you need a hearing date, filed charge, disposition, dismissal, conviction or certified disposition, move from the arrest source to the court system.

New York uses the term Freedom of Information Law (FOIL). Use Broome County’s FOIL route for releasable records held by the Broome County Sheriff or other covered county departments. A City of Binghamton, Johnson City, Endicott, Vestal or New York State Police report must be requested from the agency that holds it.

1. 1

   Confirm which agency created the record

   If BCSO handled the incident, use Sheriff Records / Broome County FOIL. If Binghamton Police handled it, use the city’s records route. Do not send every police-record request to the county.

2. 2

   Open the county’s official FOIL form

   Start at Broome County FOIL. The county provides an online submission route and a printable form.

3. 3

   Describe the record precisely

   Include the person’s name, relevant date of birth when appropriate, incident date or date range, location, report/incident number if known, arresting agency and the exact type of record requested.

4. 4

   Use a useful time frame

   Broome’s request guidance specifically recommends including dates of birth and a time frame for Sheriff requests. An open-ended search can require more work and take longer.

5. 5

   Watch for the acknowledgment or response

   The county’s FOIL FAQ says a request should be granted, denied with an explanation, or acknowledged with an expected decision date within about five business days. More complex requests can take longer.

1. The Sheriff’s weekly post is selective. BCSO explicitly says not every arrest or investigation is posted on its News Releases page.
2. Another police agency made the arrest. Check Binghamton, Johnson City, Endicott, Vestal, State Police or another involved jurisdiction.
3. The person was released. A court case may remain active even after county-jail custody ends.
4. The person transferred. If sentenced into state custody, check NY DOCCS rather than a county-jail source.
5. The name is entered differently. Try the full legal name, middle initial, suffix, maiden name or other verified variation where the official tool permits it.
6. The case belongs to a city, town or village court. Broome County Clerk does not hold every criminal case in the county.
7. The record is sealed, protected or otherwise restricted. Youth, juvenile, sealed, victim-sensitive and certain investigative records may not be publicly available.

1. Using sheriff.us/prisoners as a Broome roster. That website identifies itself as Chautauqua County Sheriff’s site. Use Broome’s Jail Inquiries route instead.
2. Assuming the weekly Sheriff post lists every arrest. BCSO expressly says it does not post every arrest or investigation.
3. Treating a mugshot or charge as a conviction. Use the correct court record for disposition.
4. Requesting a Binghamton Police report from BCSO. Police reports should normally be requested from the agency that holds the record.
5. Driving to visitation using an old jail-directory schedule. Use the current Corrections Division schedule and verify housing/visit timing first.
6. Confusing commissary with bail. Access Corrections funds the inmate account; Broome’s GovPayNet route handles applicable bail payments.
7. Using GovPayNet code 5900 for bail. Broome lists 1657 for cash bail; 5900 is the Civil Division payment code.
8. Asking the County Clerk for a broad background search. The Clerk says its staff does not conduct broad criminal-history searches; use OCA CHRS when appropriate.
9. Using DOCCS for a new local arrest. Start with Broome County for local jail custody. DOCCS applies when the person is in state correctional custody.
10. Using arrest information for regulated screening without proper procedures. USA-Arrests.org is not a consumer reporting agency. Employment, housing, credit, insurance and similar decisions require legally appropriate screening procedures and reliable disposition data.
