Oklahoma Open Records Act and Bixby PD
Oklahoma's Open Records Act covers all local agencies, including the Bixby Police Department. Under Title 51 Section 24A.8, agencies must release most public records when asked. You do not need a reason. A written request with enough detail to find the records is all you need.
Some records are protected. Active investigation files, juvenile data, and certain personal information may be withheld. If a denial happens, the department must explain why in writing. You can appeal the denial. A lawyer or Legal Aid can help if you run into problems.
Tulsa County Jail and Arrest Bookings
When Bixby police make an arrest, the person is booked at the Tulsa County Jail, also known as the David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center. The Tulsa County Sheriff operates that facility. Call 918-596-5600 to reach the sheriff's office. The jail holds around 2,020 inmates and is one of the larger county facilities in the state.
Bixby PD generates the initial arrest report. Booking records are then held by the county. Both are public records under Oklahoma law. To look up whether someone is currently in custody in Tulsa County, use the county's online jail search or call the sheriff's office.
