About this guide

Noble County, Oklahoma, has about 11,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate), and arrests there are reported to the FBI by the Noble County Sheriff's Office and two city agencies. An arrest 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 Noble County District Court. 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 Noble County

The Noble County Sheriff's Office is the county agency that reports arrests to the FBI for Noble County. It reported 49 arrests for 2025.

The FBI lists two cities in Noble County with a reporting agency of their own, with the Census population and what each reported:

  • Perry, 4,448 residents: 110 arrests reported for 2025.
  • Billings, 573 residents: 0 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 Noble County

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.

  • Perry: 110 for 2025, 115 for 2024, 139 for 2023, 180 for 2022, 191 for 2021 and 111 for 2020.
  • Noble County Sheriff's Office: 49 for 2025, 62 for 2024, 75 for 2023, 58 for 2022, 50 for 2021 and 38 for 2020.
  • Billings: 0 for 2025.

Together, the three agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 159 arrests that year. The two of them with both 2025 and 2024 complete reported 159 in 2025 against 177 in 2024, down 10 percent.

Booking: Where People Arrested in Noble County Are Held

A person kept in custody after an arrest in Noble County 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 2024 the jail held about 13 people, down from about 19 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2019, the last year with a capacity figure, was 47 beds, and it ran at 40 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 Noble County Sheriff's Office at noblecosook.gov/inmate-search (page title: Inmate Search | Noble County Sheriff's Office), phone 877-654-8463, 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 sentence of more than a year is served in state prison; the Oklahoma Department of Corrections lists its inmates at okoffender.doc.ok.gov.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in Noble County

An arrest in Noble County can be traced in two places, depending on where the case stands: the custody page of the Noble County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the Noble County District Court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at noblecountyok.com/county-clerk, phone 580-336-2141).

Statewide, OSCN and ODCR is the free online dockets of every Oklahoma district court.

Oklahoma is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can order a name-based criminal history search online, for $15 a search, through the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. That record shows what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.

Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Noble County

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 Oklahoma Open Records Act the agency must answer promptly; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge copying at no more than 25 cents a page.

  • An arrest by the Noble County Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit, reached through the office at 877-654-8463.
  • An arrest in Perry or Billings: the records unit of the agency that reports for that city.
  • The court file of a case that was filed: the Noble County District Court, through the court records page at noblecountyok.com/county-clerk, phone 580-336-2141.
  • Your own statewide record: the same request described above, for your own name.

Cities in Noble County: Who Reports the Arrests

The FBI lists a separate arrest reporting agency for two of the five cities in Noble County: Perry and Billings. Morrison, Red Rock and Marland have no separate reporting agency in the FBI's list.

Wherever in the county the arrest happens, a person kept in custody goes to the county jail and the case goes to the Noble County District Court.
