The Sheriff's Office posts a disclaimer that the data may not be perfectly up to date. Warrants get entered and updated as the office gets new info from the court. Under Minnesota Statute 609.495, hiding or helping a fugitive is a felony. If you spot someone with an active warrant, call 911 right away.

Jail Roster for Ramsey County
Ramsey County runs a 500-bed Adult Detention Center at 425 Grove Street in St. Paul. The jail roster is posted on the Ramsey County Open Data Portal and updates every 30 minutes. You can search and filter the list to find people currently in custody or those released within the past five days. The roster pulls data from three sources: arrest data comes from the arresting agency, formal charges come from the prosecutor, and court info comes from the state courts system.
Each roster entry shows the person's name, booking details, charges, court case numbers, hearing dates, and where court will take place. Records stay visible for up to 90 days from the current date. Some names may not appear right away if the person is still in the intake process and has not yet been given a booking number. The facility opened in 2003 and has about 150 staff including detention officers, law enforcement, and medical workers.

How to Use Ramsey County White Pages
A good Ramsey County White Pages search pulls from more than one source. Start with what you know and work outward.
If you have a name, begin with MCRO for court records in Ramsey County and across the state. Then check Beacon property search to see if the person owns property in the county. Run a BCA criminal history check for statewide criminal data. If you need vital records, visit the Plato Building or call (651) 266-1333. For warrants, use the Online Warrant Search. The jail roster on the open data portal shows who is currently in custody at the detention center.
