Putnam County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release status, release a person, post bond, or obtain official booking records. Contact the agency or court that maintains the record instead. For emergencies, call 911. Do not use a website contact form to report an emergency or a crime.
Official Record Contacts
Use the office that holds the record type and event location. The Sheriff’s public materials do not publish a photo-specific fee or a promised turnaround. New York Freedom of Information Law, Public Officers Law Article 6, generally allows 25 cents for an ordinary page and uses a five-business-day acknowledgment or response framework, subject to lawful extensions and record review.

Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Choose the route that matches the event:
- For a Sheriff arrest, county-custody matter, or booking record, start with the Sheriff contact page or JustFOIA request portal.
- For an arrest made by Carmel Police, use the Carmel Records Division and its public-records route.
- For a Town of Kent Police event, use the Kent Town Clerk FOIL form. The Town Clerk forwards the request to police as appropriate.
- For an event inside the Village of Brewster, use the Village of Brewster FOIL form, not a townwide route.
- For a court disposition, future appearance, or court file, use the County Clerk or the appropriate court. An arrest record and a court record are different sources.
- For New York state custody, use the official DOCCS incarcerated-person lookup.
- For matching federal or immigration custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator or the ICE Online Detainee Locator. Neither is a Putnam County booking search.
