Find Jail Mugshots in Maple Grove
Maple Grove jail mugshots are booking photos taken when someone is arrested by city police and processed into the county detention system. Maple Grove is a Hennepin County city of about 76,000 people, and it contracts with Hennepin County for all detention services. That means arrests made by Maple Grove Police result in transport to the Hennepin County Adult Detention Center in downtown Minneapolis, where booking photos are created and stored. You can search current inmate records through the Hennepin County jail site, and you can request local arrest data from Maple Grove Police through the city's JustFOIA online portal. This guide explains the full process.
Maple Grove Quick Facts
Hennepin County Jail and Maple Grove Mugshots
All Maple Grove arrests end up at the Hennepin County Adult Detention Center. The facility is at 350 South 5th Street, Minneapolis, MN 55415. The jail line is 612-348-5112. This is where booking takes place, which means the official mugshot for any Maple Grove arrest is held by Hennepin County, not by the city of Maple Grove. The Hennepin County detention system is one of the largest in the state.
Hennepin County has a public inmate search tool at co.hennepin.mn.us/jail. You can look up someone by name to see if they are currently in custody and view basic charge information. The tool is updated as bookings occur. For past inmates or historical records, you will need to file a data practices request directly with the county. The online search only shows current custody status.
Minnesota law at Minn. Stat. 13.82 requires law enforcement agencies to make arrest data public. This includes the person's name, the time and place of arrest, and the offense charged. Booking photos taken by the county fall under this framework. The county may also hold correctional data under Minn. Stat. 13.85, which governs data about people in correctional facilities, including the short-term Adult Corrections Facility that holds people sentenced for up to one year.

How to Search Maple Grove Jail Mugshots
The first step is checking the Hennepin County inmate search at co.hennepin.mn.us/jail. Enter the person's full name and see if they are in current custody. Maple Grove arrests land at this facility, so a positive result there means the person is still booked at the county level. The search is free and publicly available. No login is needed.
When you need more than just current custody status, court records are the next best tool. The state's public court access system at publicaccess.courts.state.mn.us covers the 4th Judicial District, which handles all Hennepin County criminal cases including those started by Maple Grove arrests. You can search by name or case number to find charge details, case status, hearings, and dispositions.
VINE at vinelink.com covers Hennepin County and sends you alerts when an inmate's custody status changes. This is a no-cost service funded at the state level. It is useful if you need ongoing updates about someone who was arrested in Maple Grove and is now in the county system.
For a broader history, the BCA's criminal history database at chs.state.mn.us covers statewide conviction records. This is not the same as a jail mugshot, but it can help when you want to understand whether someone has prior arrests or convictions beyond what shows in Hennepin County alone.
Requesting Maple Grove Booking Photos
A booking photo from a Maple Grove arrest is created at Hennepin County's facility, so the photo lives there. To formally request it, you submit a data practices request to Hennepin County. That request should include the person's full name, date of birth if known, and the approximate date of the arrest. Under Minn. Stat. 13.82, basic arrest data is public. The county processes those requests and will let you know if any portion of the record is classified as not public.
For arrest data held by Maple Grove Police, such as the written incident report, use the JustFOIA portal at maplegrovemn.justfoia.com or fax a request to 763-494-6431. The Information Disclosure Request form is required for police reports. Once you submit, the department has 10 business days to respond. They will tell you what is available, what the cost is if any, and how you will receive it.
The Minnesota Department of Administration's Information Policy Analysis Division oversees compliance with the Data Practices Act. If you have trouble getting public records, contact them at mn.gov/admin/IPD. They advise on requests and investigate complaints. Most requests for simple arrest data do not require this step, but knowing the oversight body exists is helpful context.
