JADES Has Been Replaced: Use Lafayette Parish’s Current Inmate and Booking System
If you are searching for “Lafayette JADES mugshots,” the old JADES system is no longer the current Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office jail lookup. LPSO replaced JADES with the 365Labs Community Portal, which provides information for people currently housed at the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center and recently booked offenders.
Records Search
Court, Criminal, Marriage, Divorce, Property
LPSO says the new portal provides the information previously available through JADES, although some features and demographic fields are still being added. A booking or mugshot records an arrest and detention event; it does not establish guilt or show the final court outcome.
What Happened to Lafayette Parish JADES?
The Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office says it implemented a new jail-management system to replace JADES. People searching the old JADES name should now use the Sheriff’s current Offender Information page and its linked 365Labs Community Portal.
Old system: JADES
JADES was the former Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office jail-information system. Older web searches, bookmarks and references may still use the JADES name.
Do not assume an old JADES bookmark is the current official inmate-search route.
Current system: 365Labs Community Portal
LPSO says the replacement Community Portal provides the same core information previously available through JADES, with some features being added during the transition.
The official Sheriff page should be your starting point because it contains the current instructions and link to the replacement system.
Which Lafayette Parish Record Answers Your Question?
The inmate portal, Daily Arrest Report, Sheriff’s records office, Clerk of Court and Louisiana corrections system answer different questions. A single booking result should not be treated as a complete criminal record.
Is the person housed at LPCC now?
Use the replacement LPSO Community Portal. The Sheriff provides instructions for displaying all currently housed inmates.
LPSO Offender Information →Was the person booked recently?
LPSO currently describes the portal’s recent-bookings view as showing offenders booked within the previous 72 hours.
365Labs LPSO Portal →Need Lafayette Parish arrests for a specific day?
LPSO publishes a Daily Arrest Report archive and also allows users to subscribe to receive daily arrest information by email.
Daily Arrest Reports →Need an incident, booking or other LPSO record?
Use the LPSO Records section. The Sheriff publishes a current fee schedule for reports, booking reports, background checks and other records.
LPSO Records →Need to know what happened after booking?
Use Lafayette Parish Clerk of Court criminal records. The Criminal Department handles formal criminal charges filed in the 15th Judicial District Court.
Lafayette Parish Criminal Records →Was the person transferred into Louisiana state custody?
Louisiana DPS&C directs users to LA VINE and its imprisoned-person locator for people assigned to state corrections custody or supervision.
Louisiana DPS&C Locator Information →How to Use the System That Replaced JADES
LPSO publishes detailed instructions for its new portal. The replacement requires a user account, and the portal does not automatically display inmate information until a search is run.
Open the official LPSO Offender Information page
Start with the Sheriff’s website. It explains the JADES transition and links to the correct 365Labs Community Portal.
Select LPSO if the portal asks for an agency
LPSO’s instructions say to select “LPSO” if an agency-selection screen appears. This routes the user into the Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office portal.
Create an account or sign in
The current system requires registration. New users select the registration option and create credentials using an email address and password.
Select “Lookup Inmates”
After signing in, use the inmate-lookup option. LPSO notes that the system does not show information by default until the Search button is selected.
Use the correct filter for your search
Recent Bookings can be used for the current recent-booking view. To display all currently housed inmates, LPSO instructs users to uncheck the Recent Bookings box, leave the name and booking-number fields blank, and run the search.
Verify the person before relying on the result
Compare the available name, booking number and custody information. LPSO warns that some identity-verification controls may not have been completed when information is first generated.
How Lafayette Parish Recent Bookings Work Now
The dedicated LPSO Offender Information page currently says the new portal shows recently booked offenders from within the last 72 hours. This is more precise than describing the system as an unlimited mugshot archive.
| What you need | Best source | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Recently booked offender | 365Labs Community Portal | Use the Recent Bookings view described by LPSO. |
| All people currently housed at LPCC | 365Labs Community Portal | Uncheck Recent Bookings, clear search fields and run the search as directed by LPSO. |
| Arrests made on a particular date | LPSO Daily Arrest Report | Open the Sheriff’s dated arrest-report archive. |
| Official copy of a daily booking report | LPSO Records | Request the record and check the current fee schedule. |
| Later criminal-case status | Lafayette Parish Clerk of Court | Follow the case through criminal court records. |
48 hours or 72 hours?
Some LPSO overview pages still describe Offender Information as covering people arrested within the past 48 hours, while the dedicated replacement-system instructions currently describe the new Community Portal as showing recent bookings within the last 72 hours. Because the dedicated transition page specifically explains the new portal, this guide uses its 72-hour description and links directly to the official page so you can confirm the current interface.
Use the LPSO Daily Arrest Report When You Need Arrests by Day
The Sheriff separately publishes Daily Arrest Reports for Lafayette Parish. This can be more useful than the inmate portal when your question is “who was arrested on a particular day?” rather than “who is in LPCC now?”
Daily Arrest Report archive
LPSO maintains dated Daily Arrest Report entries on its website. Use the archive for recent reports issued by the Sheriff.
Email subscription
LPSO also offers a subscription for people who want daily emails containing recent Lafayette Parish arrest information.
Requesting Lafayette Parish Sheriff Records
When the online inmate page is not enough, the Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Records section handles public-record requests, reports, background checks and fingerprinting services.
LPSO Records office
303 West Vermillion StreetLafayette, LA 70501
Phone: 337-236-5845
Current published office hours are Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m.–12 p.m. and 1 p.m.–4:45 p.m.; Friday, 8 a.m.–11:45 a.m.
Current LPSO records fees
The Sheriff’s fee schedule effective July 1, 2026 currently lists several commonly requested records:
- Daily Booking Report: $10 per report.
- Initial Report: $10 per report.
- Incident Report: $10 plus $1 per supplemental page.
- Background Check: $30 per check.
- Letter of Incarceration: $5 per letter.
- Other document copies, including electronic copies: $1 per page.

Main Sheriff’s Office contact
Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office main office: 316 West Main Street, Lafayette, LA 70501. Main phone: 337-232-9211.
How Lafayette Parish Bail Options Work
Once a bond has been set, LPSO currently describes three main options: commercial bond, personal surety bond and cash bond. The requirements are different, so verify the type before arranging payment.
Commercial bond
A commercial bond is posted through a bonding company chosen by the person arranging release. LPSO says the typical fee is 12% of the original bond, although individual bondsmen may vary.
Personal surety or W-2 bond
This option requires judicial approval. LPSO says the friend or relative providing the surety must have sufficient income, and picture identification is required when the approved bond is signed.
Cash bond
The full bond amount must be posted. LPSO currently says cash or money order may be used and that bond money is refunded after the defendant appears in court and charges are adjudicated, subject to applicable court-determined fees.
Use Lafayette Parish Court Records for the Later Case Status
The Lafayette Parish Clerk of Court Criminal Department handles formal felony charges filed by the 15th Judicial District Attorney and certain misdemeanor matters. A booking entry should not be used as a substitute for the later court record.
Online court records
The Clerk currently directs civil and criminal online-record users to ClerkConnect. The court-record system includes criminal and traffic case information such as offense date, charge filed, case history, minutes and disposition.
Online access is subscription-based.
Request criminal records directly
The Clerk also accepts criminal-record requests. Its current instructions ask for information including the requester’s name and phone number, docket number, case caption, requested document title, number of copies, whether regular or certified copies are needed, delivery details and payment method.
Criminal Department: 337-291-6329.
When to Use Louisiana DPS&C Instead of Lafayette JADES or LPCC
Lafayette Parish jail records and Louisiana state corrections records are different systems. Use the state locator when the person has been assigned to Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections custody or supervision.
| System | Use it for | Important limitation |
|---|---|---|
| LPSO Community Portal | Current LPCC inmates and recent Lafayette Parish bookings. | It replaced the old JADES local jail system. |
| LPSO Daily Arrest Report | Lafayette Parish arrests organized by report date. | It is an arrest report, not a final court outcome. |
| Lafayette Parish Clerk | Criminal court cases, filings and disposition information. | It is not a current jail-status system. |
| Louisiana DPS&C / LA VINE | State-custody location and people under applicable state supervision. | It should not replace the local LPCC lookup for pretrial or parish inmates. |
Louisiana state inmate locator
Louisiana DPS&C says LA VINE is updated every 24 hours and can be searched by location, name or ID/case number. The department also operates an imprisoned-person locator at 225-383-4580.
For telephone locator information, callers need either the person’s DPS&C number or the person’s name and date of birth.
Using VINE With the New Lafayette Parish Portal
LPSO’s replacement-system instructions explain how the new Community Portal booking number can be used with VINE when users need offender custody and notification services.
Use the booking number as the identifier
LPSO instructs users to take the offender’s Booking Number from the Community Portal, select “ID Number” in VINE, and enter that booking number as the ID Number to locate the offender.
Louisiana’s victim-notification services can be useful when the goal is ongoing custody or release notification rather than repeatedly checking a mugshot page.
Why the Lafayette Jail Search May Look Different From Old JADES
Most problems now come from the system transition, portal filters, registration requirements or confusion between local jail and state corrections records.
| Problem | Likely explanation | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| An old JADES link no longer works | JADES has been replaced. | Start from the official LPSO Offender Information page and use its Community Portal link. |
| The portal asks for an agency | The shared 365Labs system needs the correct agency selected. | Select LPSO as instructed by the Sheriff. |
| No results appear immediately after login | The new portal does not display records until Search is selected. | Set the appropriate filters and press Search. |
| You only see recent bookings | The Recent Bookings filter may be active. | To see all currently housed inmates, uncheck Recent Bookings and clear the search fields before searching. |
| Date of birth or physical details are missing | LPSO says some demographic fields are still being added during the system transition. | Do not guess. Use other verified identifiers or contact LPSO if necessary. |
| You need an older arrest report | The recent-booking view is not a complete historical document archive. | Check Daily Arrest Reports or contact LPSO Records. |
| You need the final case result | Booking information does not show the full court disposition. | Use Lafayette Parish Clerk of Court criminal records. |
| The person may be in state custody | LPCC and Louisiana DPS&C are separate systems. | Use LA VINE or the DPS&C locator. |

A Lafayette Mugshot Is Not the Complete Criminal Case
The new LPSO portal is useful for detention and recent-booking information, but the Sheriff’s own disclaimer makes clear that the information should not be treated as proof of guilt.
The jail record may help show
- That a booking or detention event was recorded.
- Whether a person is currently housed at LPCC.
- A recent booking shown by the current portal.
- A booking number and other available jail information.
- A mugshot where the current system provides one.
The jail record does not prove
- That the person committed the alleged offense.
- That an initial charge was formally prosecuted.
- That the original charge remained unchanged.
- That release means the charge was dismissed.
- That the person was ultimately convicted.
