About this guide

D'Iberville, Mississippi, in Harrison County, has about 13,000 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 District Attorney files charges, a case in the Harrison County Circuit 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 D'Iberville

The FBI lists D'Iberville with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as D'Iberville Police Department. It reported 890 arrests for 2025. 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 Harrison County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 1,202 arrests for 2025.

The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Harrison County: the Department of Marine Resources, Biloxi Commercial Transportation Enforcement Division and the Biloxi Capitol Police (state agency); Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College at Harrison County and AMTC (campus police).

How Many Arrests D'Iberville Reports

Each agency reports its arrests to the FBI by month, and the FBI publishes them 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.

  • D'Iberville: 890 for 2025, 828 for 2024, 589 for 2023, 984 for 2020 and 3,062 for 2019; 2021 and 2022 are missing months.

D'Iberville's 890 arrests in 2025 were up 7.5 percent from 828 in 2024.

Through July 2026, D'Iberville reported 446 arrests, against 510 in the same months of 2025.

Across Harrison County, the six agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 8,490 arrests between them.

Booking: Where People Arrested in D'Iberville Are Held

The county jail is where a person arrested in D'Iberville 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 2024 the jail held about 760 people, down from about 820 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2023, the last year with a capacity figure, was 760 beds, and it ran at 98 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 Harrison County Sheriff's Office at harrisoncountysheriff.com/inmate-search (page title: Inmate-search | Harrison County Sheriff's Office), phone 228-865-7060, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 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 person sentenced to prison serves the sentence in a facility of the Mississippi Department of Corrections, whose inmate locator is at mdoc.ms.gov/inmate_search.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in D'Iberville

An arrest in D'Iberville can be traced in three places, depending on where the case stands: the custody page of the Harrison County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the Harrison County Circuit Court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at harrison2.co.harrison.ms.us/dockets/circuitcourt.asp); the District Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at harrisoncountyms.gov/government/district_attorney/index.php).

Mississippi does not let the public search another person's statewide criminal history. The record kept by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Criminal Information Center 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 D'Iberville

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 Mississippi Public Records Act the agency must answer within 7 working days, or up to 14 where local rules allow, and it may charge the actual cost of search, review and copying.

  • An arrest by the D'Iberville police: the police department's page SearchSystems verified at diberville.ms.us/departments/police-department (page title: Police Department | City of D'Iberville, Mississippi), phone 228-865-7060, 11290 Lamey Bridge Road D’Iberville, MS 39540, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 26, 2026.
  • An arrest by the Harrison County Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit, reached through the office at 228-865-7060.
  • A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
  • The court file of a case that was filed: the Harrison County Circuit Court, through the court records page at harrison2.co.harrison.ms.us.
  • Your own statewide record: a fingerprint-based request to the Criminal Information Center.
