Find the Right Public Office
The Washington County Sheriff’s Office is at 500 Western Maryland Parkway, Hagerstown, MD 21740, and its main public number is 240-313-2100. Central Booking at the Washington County Detention Center uses 240-313-2840 and is open around the clock according to the Maryland Courts directory. For records, use the WCSO Public Information Act portal, which accepts and tracks written requests. The Washington District Court is at 36 West Antietam Street, Hagerstown, with normal weekday hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., excluding court holidays.
Choose the source based on the question:
- For a booking record, photograph, current roster card, or records request, start with the Washington County arrest guide and WCSO.
- For a fresh arrest that may not yet be online, use the WCSO roster and Central Booking contact, then file a focused PIA request if needed.
- For a release or transfer alert, use the person-level WCSO “Notify Me” link or Maryland VINE.
- For the result of a criminal case, use Maryland Judiciary Case Search and the Washington District Court clerk.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Maryland DPSCS incarcerated-person locator; federal and immigration custody use separate BOP and ICE tools.
- For a Hagerstown, Boonsboro, or Smithsburg incident report, contact that city’s police or town records office, while WCSO remains the booking custodian.
