Reviewed and updated October 9, 2026 by the SearchSystems.net editorial team. The arrest counts are the ones the agency reported to the FBI, through 2024.

Eloy, Arizona, in Pinal County, has about 19,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate), and its arrests are reported to the FBI by an agency of its own. An arrest in the city leaves the same records whoever makes it: the arresting agency's report, the record of anyone held at the county jail, and, if the County Attorney files charges, a case in the Pinal County Superior Court. This guide says who keeps each one, what it costs and who may see it, with the arrest counts the agency reported.
This guide covers who makes arrests, how many arrests, booking and the jail, finding an arrest, copies and common questions.

Who Makes Arrests in Eloy
The FBI lists Eloy with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as Eloy Police Department. It reported 612 arrests for 2024, its latest complete year. A city is listed separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.
Outside the city, the Pinal County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 2,263 arrests for 2025.
The FBI's agency list also places one more agency in Pinal County: Central Arizona College (campus police).
How Many Arrests Eloy Reports
The FBI publishes every agency's monthly arrest counts on the Crime Data Explorer. These are the full-year totals, all offenses, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026; a year with months missing or not reported is left out.
- Eloy: 612 for 2024, 675 for 2023, 979 for 2022 and 854 for 2021.
Eloy's 612 arrests in 2024 were down 9.3 percent from 675 in 2023.
Across Pinal County, the six agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 8,957 arrests between them.
Booking: Where People Arrested in Eloy Are Held
A person kept in custody after an arrest in Eloy is held at the county jail, whichever agency made the arrest, apart from the short stay some city departments' own holding cells allow; a person cited and released at the scene is not booked at all. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and the court file takes over from there.
On an average day in 2023 the jail held about 520 people, down from about 560 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2023 was 1,029 beds, and it ran at 51 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.
SearchSystems opened and checked the custody page of the Pinal County Sheriff's Office at app1.pinal.gov/search/inmate-search.aspx (page title: Pinal County Sheriff Inmate Search), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.
That page is the place to look for someone who was booked recently; a person cited and released at the scene, or held only a few hours by a city department, will not be on it.
A sentence of more than a year is served in state prison; the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry lists its inmates at corrections.az.gov/inmate-data-search.
How to Find Out About an Arrest in Eloy
Whether someone was arrested in Eloy, and what came of it, shows up in three places: the custody page of the Pinal County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the Pinal County Superior Court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at pinalcourtsaz.gov/222/Court-Records-Request); the County Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at pinal.gov/1676/County-Attorney).
Statewide, Public Access to Court Information is the Arizona Judicial Branch's free statewide case search; the Maricopa and Pima county courts run their own.
Arizona does not let the public search another person's statewide criminal history. The record kept by the Arizona Department of Public Safety goes to the person it belongs to and to employers and agencies the law authorizes; for everyone else the court's own case index is the public record of an arrest that led to a charge.
Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Eloy
The report of an arrest is released by the agency that made it; the jail and the court hold their own records of the same event, but not the report. Under the Arizona Public Records Law the agency must answer promptly, with no fixed number of days in the statute, and it may charge the cost of copies, and more for commercial requests.
