Graham County Inmate Records
Graham County busted mugshots must be requested formally through the sheriff's office, as the online booking roster published in PDF format shows only names, booking numbers, and booking agencies without including photographic images. The Graham County Sheriff's Office operates the Adult Detention Center with 248-bed capacity from their facility at 600 W. Graham Canal Road in Safford, serving the eastern Arizona communities along the Gila River valley. You can view the current Booking Roster PDF document at graham.az.gov/DocumentCenter/View/502/Booking-Rost to see who's currently in custody, but this list doesn't include Graham County busted mugshots or detailed charge information, only basic identification data for inmates booked into the facility. Office hours run Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM for administrative business and records requests, with the detention center operating a separate phone line at 928-428-2455 for jail-specific inquiries while the main sheriff's number at 928-428-3141 handles general questions.
Graham County Booking Roster PDF
The booking roster operates as a simple PDF document rather than an interactive database. You can view it at graham.az.gov/DocumentCenter/View/502/Booking-Rost by downloading the file. The roster lists current inmates with three pieces of information for each person. Name appears as recorded in booking records. Booking Number provides unique identification. Booking Agency tells you which law enforcement entity made the arrest.
This roster does not include busted mugshots. Photos don't appear in the PDF. You also won't see charges, bond amounts, booking dates, or other details that more comprehensive online systems display. The document serves as a basic current custody roster rather than full booking database. It answers the question "Is this person currently in Graham County jail?" without providing extensive documentation.
The PDF updates periodically to reflect changes in the detention population. It shows current inmates. Historical searches for people who have been released won't appear here. For complete booking records including Graham County busted mugshots, you need to submit formal requests through the sheriff's office using the contact methods described below.

Graham County Adult Detention Center
The detention facility operates with 248-bed capacity from the Safford location. This serves the entire county's detention needs. When someone gets arrested anywhere in Graham County, they're transported to this facility for booking and housing. The intake process includes capturing busted mugshots along with fingerprints and biographical information that become permanent booking records.
Graham County sits in eastern Arizona along the Gila River valley. Safford serves as the county seat and largest community. The area is more rural than urban Arizona counties, with agriculture, mining, and small-town economies dominating. The detention center's 248-bed capacity reflects this smaller population scale compared to massive facilities in Phoenix or Tucson metro areas.
Geographic isolation means the county jail handles all detention needs locally rather than transferring inmates to larger regional facilities. People awaiting trial, those unable to post bond, and individuals serving shorter sentences all stay at this Safford facility. Longer state prison sentences eventually transfer to Arizona Department of Corrections facilities, but county booking and initial detention happen here regardless.
Graham County Communities
Safford is the county seat where the sheriff's office and detention center are located. Pima and Thatcher represent other communities in the Gila Valley. None exceed 50,000 population. The county maintains a rural character with small towns and agricultural areas predominating over urban development. All local law enforcement agencies rely on the county jail for booking and detention services.
Note: Graham County's PDF roster provides basic current inmate information without the detailed searchable databases that larger Arizona counties sometimes offer.
