About This Site

Finding someone in custody in Cumberland County starts with knowing which system is responsible for the person. This private reference site organizes the county jail lookup, New Jersey prison locator, federal custody tools, and local facility pages so readers can start in the right place.

What This Site Does

New Jersey makes many jail and court-record access points public, but Cumberland County custody information is split across several systems. The Cumberland County Department of Corrections runs the local jail at 54 W. Broad Street in Bridgeton and links to the BlueHorse incarcerated-person lookup for county custody. Sentenced state prisoners, federal prisoners, and immigration detainees are handled through separate state and federal systems. This site explains those differences and organizes the main Cumberland County custody topics into one county-focused guide.


What You Can Find Here

The pages are written for common custody and record questions in Cumberland County:

  • Guidance for jail inmate records, jail roster mugshots, and court records after a jail arrest.
  • Facility pages for Cumberland County Jail / Cumberland County Department of Corrections, South Woods State Prison, Bayside State Prison, and Federal Correctional Institution Fairton.
  • Step-by-step direction for the county BlueHorse roster and the statewide NJDOC inmate search.
  • Plain-language notes on why county, state, and federal custody records do not all appear in the same database.
