Get in Touch

Cherokee County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, release anyone, post bond, or pull an official booking record. Direct those requests to the responsible public office below.


Official Cherokee County Record Routes

Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office
312 E. Frederick Street
Gaffney, SC 29340
864-489-4722

For a booking record or potentially releasable booking photograph, send the Sheriff a specific written request. Identify the person, approximate booking date, arresting agency if known, and the exact record sought. The County’s FOIA page identifies the Sheriff as a separate elected-official route. Ask the custodian for a release determination and a written cost estimate. A dedicated records email, published office hours for booking-record requests, and an individual photo fee were not confirmed in the County material.

Cherokee County Detention Center
315 E. Dr. L. M. Rosemond Lane
Gaffney, SC 29340
864-487-2529

For a current local-custody question, contact the detention center. The County page identifies the center but does not provide a working public inmate-search destination, published hours for record requests, or a public booking-photo price.

Use the channel that matches the record question:

  • Sheriff and detention: the Sheriff’s Office for a written booking-record request, and the detention center for current local custody information.
  • Local court record: the official Cherokee Public Index for filed-case information and later case status. A court entry is not a real-time custody or warrant confirmation.
  • State-prison custody: the official South Carolina Department of Corrections public search for people currently sentenced and incarcerated with SCDC. It is not a Cherokee County jail roster.
  • SCDC record or image request: use SCDC’s legal-information route and include an SCDC ID when known. That process does not retrieve a county booking photograph.
