Kings County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody or release, post bail, release a person, obtain an official booking record, or speak for NYPD, NYC DOC, or a court. Use the appropriate official route below for an authoritative answer.
Official Kings County Record Routes
Kings County is Brooklyn, and ordinary Brooklyn arrests use New York City systems rather than a county sheriff jail. The right destination depends on when the arrest occurred and whether the person is still in police custody, has been arraigned, or needs a court or records answer.
New York City Police Department
NYPD contact information
One Police Plaza
New York, NY 10038
General inquiries: 646-610-5000
City routing and non-emergencies: 311
Emergencies: 911
For a very recent arrest, use NYC311's arrested-person instructions. A person released on a Desk Appearance Ticket, recognizance, or bail may not enter the DOC lookup.
NYPD FOIL Unit for Arrest Records
NYPD FOIL Unit, Legal Bureau
One Police Plaza, Room 110-A
New York, NY 10038
Telephone: 646-610-5296
Listed hours: Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., excluding holidays, by appointment
Submit a focused NYPD request through NYC OpenRecords by selecting NYPD. State the person's name, date, precinct if known, and arrest number if known. Request an arrest report or identification photograph specifically, but recognize that disclosure may be limited by exemptions, privacy rules, fair-trial concerns, or sealing.
New York City Department of Correction
NYC DOC contact
General and inmate-information routing: 718-546-1500
City assistance: 311
For a person held after arraignment, start with the NYC DOC inmate lookup. It is a current-custody tool, not a routine booking-photo gallery. For a DOC custody file or a record subject to DOC control, use the NYC DOC FOIL process instead of expecting a telephone operator to disclose a photograph.
Kings Criminal Court
Kings Criminal Court
120 Schermerhorn Street
Brooklyn, NY 11201
General information: 347-404-9400
Listed arraignment hours: Sunday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 1 a.m., subject to current exceptions and schedule changes
Use New York e-Courts or the Criminal Court for a case status or disposition. Court outcomes, not the original booking allegation, establish what ultimately happened in a case.
For a state-sentenced person, use the DOCCS incarcerated-person lookup. For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or the ICE Online Detainee Locator. A warrant question should follow the official NYC311 warrant-check instructions, not a records search on this site.
