Lewisville Jail Roster and Inmate Records
The Lewisville jail roster shows people currently held at the Denton County jail after arrests made in Lewisville. Lewisville is a city in Denton County in the northern Dallas-Fort Worth metro. When Lewisville police make an arrest, the person is transported to the Denton County detention facility. Lewisville does not operate its own county jail. This page explains how to search the Lewisville inmate records, who manages the county detention system, how VINE works for custody alerts, and where to turn for state prison records when the county search comes up empty.
Lewisville Overview
Where Lewisville Arrestees Are Held
All arrests made in Lewisville result in booking at the Denton County jail, which is managed by the Denton County Sheriff's Office in Denton. The county seat is about 20 miles from Lewisville. The Denton County Sheriff runs the jail and maintains all booking records for the county, including those from Lewisville PD and other municipal agencies in the area. Both are free and updated regularly. Booking records show the inmate's name, date of birth, charges, booking time, and current status. Because Lewisville is in Denton County, the same roster that covers Denton city arrests also covers Lewisville. The arresting agency field tells you which department brought the person in.

Call the sheriff's office if a name search returns no results and you believe someone has been arrested. New records can take a few hours to appear online.
Lewisville Police Department
Lewisville PD covers the city and handles patrol, investigations, and arrests. Once a person is arrested, Lewisville PD delivers them to the Denton County jail. The police department does not maintain a public jail roster; their records are limited to incident reports and case files. For police records, use the Texas Public Information Act process described below.
Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 2.13 outlines the duties of all Texas peace officers. Lewisville officers operate under these rules. If you need records from Lewisville PD, you can request them under Texas Government Code Chapter 552. The Public Information Act requires public agencies to respond to written requests within ten business days. Most basic arrest records are public and available at no cost, though copies may carry a small fee.

Searching the Lewisville Jail Roster
The Denton County Sheriff's website is the primary tool for Lewisville jail roster lookups. Enter the person's full legal name and optionally their date of birth. The site is free and does not require registration.
If a search returns no results, consider these factors. First, recent arrests may not appear for a few hours. Second, if the person was arrested in a part of the city that straddles another county, the booking may be in a different county system. Third, if the arrest was by a state or federal agency rather than Lewisville PD, the record may appear under a different facility. If all else fails, call the Denton County jail directly at the number above.
VINE Victim Notification
VINE lets you track a Denton County inmate's status without checking the roster manually every day. Register at VINELink using the inmate's ID number. The system will send you automatic alerts by phone, text, or email when the person's custody status changes, including releases and transfers. VINE is free and runs around the clock.
To register or check on someone by phone, call 1-877-894-8463. VINE covers all Denton County inmates, so Lewisville arrests are included.

VINE sends the alert as soon as the county updates the system.

State Prison and TDCJ Records
Some Lewisville arrests end in state prison sentences, which means the person leaves Denton County and goes to a TDCJ facility. The TDCJ Inmate Search covers all state-sentenced inmates in Texas. It shows current location, offense, sentence details, and projected release date. TDCJ is a separate system from the county jail roster.
For a broader look at criminal history, the Texas DPS Crime Records service maintains statewide data on arrests and convictions. Some records are free, while others require a fee. The Texas Commission on Jail Standards oversees all county jails including the Denton County facility under Title 37, Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 265.
Public Records Requests
Texas Government Code Chapter 552 gives you the right to request records from public agencies in Texas. This includes Lewisville PD and the Denton County Sheriff's Office. Write a request identifying the records you need and send it to the agency's public information officer. You do not need a reason. The agency must respond within ten business days. If they deny your request, they must tell you which exemption applies. You can appeal any denial to the Texas Attorney General at no cost. Basic jail records, booking logs, and arrest reports are generally public in Texas.
