About this guide

Iberville Parish, Louisiana, has about 30,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate), and arrests there are reported to the FBI by the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office and four city agencies. An arrest leaves the same records whoever makes it: the arresting agency's report, the record of anyone held at the parish jail, and, if the District Attorney files charges, a case in the District Court for Iberville Parish. This guide says who keeps each one, what it costs and who may see it, with the arrest counts each agency reported.

This guide covers who makes arrests, how many arrests, booking and the jail, finding an arrest, copies, cities and common questions.

Who Makes Arrests in Iberville Parish

The Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office is the county agency that reports arrests to the FBI for Iberville Parish. It reported 507 arrests for 2025.

Arrests inside four of the parish's cities are reported to the FBI by an agency of the city's own, listed here with the Census population and what each reported:

  • St. Gabriel, 6,857 residents: 143 arrests reported for 2020.
  • Plaquemine, 5,985 residents: 95 arrests reported for 2025.
  • White Castle, 1,612 residents: 4 arrests reported for 2024.
  • Rosedale, 642 residents: 1,152 arrests reported for 2025.

A city on that list is reported separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.

How Many Arrests Each Agency Reports in Iberville Parish

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.

  • Rosedale: 1,152 for 2025, 1,152 for 2024, 1,146 for 2023, 1,132 for 2022, 919 for 2021 and 1,146 for 2020.
  • Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office: 507 for 2025, 430 for 2024, 524 for 2023, 513 for 2021 and 814 for 2020; 2022 is missing months.
  • Plaquemine: 95 for 2025, 130 for 2024, 79 for 2023 and 82 for 2021; 2022 is missing months.
  • St. Gabriel: 143 for 2020.
  • White Castle: 4 for 2024 and 64 for 2019; 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 are missing months.

Together, the three agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 1,754 arrests that year. The same agencies with both 2025 and 2024 complete reported 1,754 in 2025 against 1,712 in 2024, up 2.5 percent.

Through May 2026, the three agencies with every month so far on file reported 690 arrests, against 778 in the same months of 2025.

White Castle reported only part of 2025 (9 months) and is left out of the totals.

Booking: Where People Arrested in Iberville Parish Are Held

The parish jail is where a person arrested in Iberville Parish and kept in custody ends up, whichever agency made the arrest, though a city department may hold someone in its own cells first and a person cited and released at the scene is never booked. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and once the person is released or sentenced the record continues in the court file.

On an average day in 2021 the jail held about 110 people, down from about 120 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2019, the last year with a capacity figure, was 123 beds, and it ran at 98 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in Iberville Parish

For Iberville Parish the place to look is the District Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at 18thjda.org).

Louisiana does not let the public search another person's statewide criminal history. The record kept by the Louisiana State Police Bureau of Criminal Identification 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 Iberville Parish

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 Louisiana Public Records Law the agency must answer within 3 business days when the record is not immediately available, and it may charge a reasonable fee for copies.

  • An arrest by the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit, reached through the office at 225-687-5100.
  • An arrest in St. Gabriel, Plaquemine, White Castle or Rosedale: the records unit of the agency that reports for that city; the city guides linked above name each city's records office.
  • A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
  • Any parish record that is not posted: the parish records request page SearchSystems verified is at ibervilleparish.com/public-records-request (page title: Public Records Request Submission Form | Iberville Parish Government).
  • Your own statewide record: a fingerprint-based request to the Bureau of Criminal Identification.
