Severn Booking Reports Database

Severn booking reports are processed through the Anne Arundel County detention system. Severn is a census-designated place, so it does not have its own jail or police booking center. Arrests in the Severn area go to the Jennifer Road Detention Center in Annapolis or the Ordnance Road Correctional Center in Glen Burnie. Both facilities create booking reports when a person is taken in. You can get copies of Severn booking reports by filing a request under the Maryland Public Information Act with the county or state. Most people look up Severn booking reports to check on a case, confirm an arrest, or find out where someone is being held.

Where Severn Booking Reports Are Filed

Severn does not have a local jail. Arrests in Severn are handled by the Anne Arundel County Police, and people who are taken in go to one of two county facilities. The Jennifer Road Detention Center in Annapolis is the primary intake site. JRDC sits at 131 Jennifer Road, Annapolis MD 21401. You can reach it at 410-222-7374. It holds about 635 people. Each arrest processed there creates a booking report that goes into the Anne Arundel County system.

The second facility is the Ordnance Road Correctional Center in Glen Burnie. ORCC is at 600 East Ordnance Road, Glen Burnie MD 21060, phone 410-222-4900. It has a larger capacity of about 1,200. Some Severn arrests end up at ORCC based on bed space or the charges involved. Both facilities fall under the Anne Arundel County Department of Detention Facilities, which the county sheriff runs. The booking reports from both sites feed into the same county records system.

If you are not sure which facility processed a Severn booking, call JRDC first at 410-222-7374. Staff can look up a name and tell you if that person is there or if they were sent to ORCC instead. Either way, the process for getting the actual booking report is the same.

How to Search Severn Booking Reports

To get a booking report from a Severn arrest, you file a request under the Maryland Public Information Act. The MPIA is in Maryland Code, General Provisions § 4-101. This law gives you the right to ask for government records. Booking reports from JRDC and ORCC are government records. You send your request to the Anne Arundel County Sheriff's Office, which is the custodian for these files.

Your request should have the full name of the person, the date of arrest if you know it, and your own contact info. Under Maryland Code, General Provisions § 4-203, the agency has 30 days to respond. They may charge a fee for copies. If they say no, they have to tell you the reason in writing. You can appeal a denial to the State Public Information Act Compliance Board. Most Severn booking reports for adult arrests are released without issue.

The Anne Arundel County Sheriff's detention facilities page has general info about JRDC and ORCC. It does not have an online booking report search tool, but it does tell you how to reach each facility. The Maryland DPSCS Inmate Locator is another option. It shows people who are in the state system. If someone from Severn was moved to a state facility after booking, the locator can help you find them.

The locator does not show the full booking report. It gives you a name, date of birth, and current facility. For the complete record from a Severn arrest, you still need to file the MPIA request.

Severn Booking Reports Under Maryland Law

The MPIA controls who can see booking reports from Severn and what can be held back. Under Maryland Code, General Provisions § 4-301, a custodian must let the public view records unless a specific law blocks it. You do not need to say why you want a Severn booking report. The law does not ask for a reason. Just state what you want and give your contact details.

Some parts of a booking report may be held back. Under Maryland Code, General Provisions § 4-351, records from active investigations can be redacted. Juvenile records have extra limits as well. But for a standard adult arrest in Severn, the booking data is usually available. That means the name, charges, date, and arresting agency. The basic facts of the arrest are public record in most cases.

Visiting Someone Booked After a Severn Arrest

If someone you know was arrested in Severn, they are likely at JRDC in Annapolis. Visitation at JRDC allows two visits per week. Each visit can last up to one hour, but if the facility is busy, visits may be cut to 30 minutes. You need to check in 30 minutes before your visit starts. Bring a valid ID. That means a driver's license, government-issued ID, or a passport with proof of address.

The dress code at JRDC is strict. Cover your shoulders. Wear shoes. No see-through clothes. The facility does a search at the door, so leave your phone, keys, and large bags in the car. If you have an open warrant or are on probation, parole, or home detention, they will not let you in. Showing up under the influence will also get you turned away. These rules apply the same way at ORCC in Glen Burnie if the person was booked there instead.

Attorney visits at JRDC are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That is a separate process from personal visits. If a family member was just booked after a Severn arrest, wait a few hours before calling about visits. The intake process takes time, and the person may not be in the system right away. Call JRDC at 410-222-7374 or ORCC at 410-222-4900 to ask about visit times and confirm where the person is being held.

Commissary for Severn Bookings

People held at JRDC or ORCC after a Severn arrest can get commissary through Access Corrections. You can order on the website, the mobile app, or by calling 1-866-345-1884. Kiosks at the facilities also work for deposits. The system takes debit and credit cards. No money orders by mail. Each order has a $200 cap.

Commissary items include snacks, drinks, hygiene products, and writing supplies. The available items can change, so check the Access Corrections site before you order. Deposits to the person's account go through the same system. You need their full name and JID to make any deposit. The kiosk at JRDC or ORCC can process cash deposits in person if that is easier for you.

Severn Booking Reports and Court Records

After a booking in the Severn area, the case moves to the Anne Arundel County court system. The Circuit Court is at 8 Church Circle, Annapolis MD 21401. Call 410-222-1397 for court info. The booking report covers the arrest and intake. The court file covers what happens next. Charges, hearings, pleas, and sentences all go into the court record, which is separate from the booking report.

You can search court records tied to a Severn arrest on the Maryland Judiciary Case Search at casesearch.courts.state.md.us. Type in a name and you get case results for all Maryland courts. This is free to use. The tool shows charges, court dates, and outcomes. It does not show the booking report itself. But if you pair a case search with an MPIA request, you get the whole picture of what happened from arrest to resolution after a booking tied to Severn.

A booking report shows the start. The court record shows the end. Many people need both to get the full story of a Severn arrest. Charges at booking can change before the case goes to trial. The state's attorney may add charges, reduce them, or drop them. That is why the booking report alone does not tell you the final result of a case from Severn.
