Maui County Released Inmates Records
Maui County released inmates records start with the Maui Community Correctional Center and the Maui Police Department arrest files. The county covers three islands: Maui, Lanai, and Molokai. Each adult booked in the county moves through MCCC at 600 Waiale Drive. The MPD keeps arrest records at 55 Mahalani Street in Wailuku. The DCR runs SAVIN for custody changes. You can search by name, by booking number, or by facility. This page points to every Maui County released inmates search tool run by state, county, or court.
Maui County Overview
Maui County Police Department
The Maui Police Department is the first stop for Maui County released inmates records. The main HQ sits at 55 Mahalani Street, Wailuku, HI 96793. The front desk number is (808) 244-6400. The Records Section can be reached at (808) 244-6355 with a fax at (808) 244-6418. MPD serves all three islands in the county: Maui, Lanai, and Molokai. District stations cover Lahaina, Kihei, and Hana on Maui. There are also substations on Molokai and Lanai. All arrest records flow back to the Wailuku HQ.
Arrest records requests go through the Records Section. Copy fees are $0.25 per page. Pay by money order or cashier's check. The Records and ID page at mauicounty.gov/police/records-identification lists the current process. The page has been offline at times, so calling (808) 244-6355 is a solid backup. The HCJDC access site on Maui runs out of the same MPD building at (808) 244-6345.
The MPD takes walk-in requests at the Records counter. Bring a valid photo ID. The Records office keeps standard business hours Monday through Friday. For more on the main Maui Police Department page, see mauicounty.gov/police.
The MPD arrest record is the core document for any Maui County released inmates file. It covers the booking event and the charge at arrest. The file moves with the person into MCCC custody. Later release or court action gets logged back to MPD.
Note: Juvenile arrest data is never in the public record and MPD will not release it to third parties under Hawaii law.
Maui Community Correctional Center
The Maui Community Correctional Center is the jail for Maui County released inmates. MCCC sits at 600 Waiale Drive, Wailuku, HI 96793. The main line is (808) 243-5101. The Visitor Hotline is (808) 243-5861. MCCC holds pre-trial detainees, sentenced misdemeanants, and some felons in transition to state prison. The facility serves all three islands in the county. People arrested on Lanai or Molokai get flown or ferried over for booking.
MCCC runs a full intake. That covers fingerprints, photos, medical screening, and classification. Visitation needs advance scheduling and a valid photo ID. The facility dress code is strict. Family and friends can call the Visitor Hotline to confirm schedules. Programming at MCCC covers basic education, substance abuse help, and reentry prep. Release planning starts well before the projected release date. Paperwork includes property return and handoff to probation or parole when that applies.
Read the facility page at dcr.hawaii.gov for visitor rules and the current program list. Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 353 sets the legal frame for custody at MCCC. See HRS Chapter 353 for the full corrections code. Inmate records fall under Hawaii Administrative Rules Title 23.
MCCC is the only state jail serving Maui County released inmates. Long-term sentenced inmates move off-island to Halawa, Waiawa, or the Women's Community Correctional Center on Oahu. Some go to out-of-state contract beds. The DCR tracks those moves in SAVIN.
Maui County Public Records Portal
Maui County runs an online records portal at mauicountyhi.govqa.us. The portal takes records requests 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Staff review requests Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. You file a request, get a tracking number, and watch progress through the same portal. You can upload ID, pay fees, and pick up digital files there too.
Response time runs 10 business days under HRS § 92F-11. That is the Uniform Information Practices Act rule. Complex requests can get an extension. You get a notice if the clock has to pause. The portal routes your request to the right office. That might be MPD, the Prosecuting Attorney, the Corporation Counsel, or Public Works. Most Maui County released inmates requests hit MPD or the court.
Fees are set by Hawaii Administrative Rules § 2-71-19. Copy fees run $0.25 per page. Certification is $2.00 per document. Some search and review time may also carry a fee. Fee waivers can apply when release of the record is in the public interest. The portal lets you ask for a waiver at the start of the request.
For the statewide rule, see the OIP page at oip.hawaii.gov/laws-rules-opinions/uipa. That page explains the full UIPA Chapter 92F frame. The OIP handles appeals when a request is denied.
Note: The portal will not release sealed files, active case files, or juvenile records even with a valid request on file.
Maui County Arrest Records
Maui County arrest records cover every booking made by MPD. Each file has a core set of data. That includes arrestee identifying info, the arrest date, the arrest time, the arrest location, and the name of the booking officer. The file also lists the charges. Each charge has a statute citation and a classification code. The record shows warrant info when that applies. Booking details cover the intake event at MCCC. Bond and bail info show the release terms. Court info points to the next hearing date. The custody status line says if the person is still in jail or out.
Not every arrest ends in a conviction. The arrest record is a point-in-time snapshot. The court case tracks what happens after. For the full context, pair the MPD arrest record with the eCourt case file. Both together give the real picture of a Maui County released inmates file. The MPD file is always the source of truth for the arrest event itself.
For MPD arrest records, call the Records Section at (808) 244-6355 or mail a written request to 55 Mahalani Street, Wailuku, HI 96793. Records older than the online window need a written request. Attach a copy of your photo ID and the fee by money order. For the court disposition, use eCourt Kokua at courts.hawaii.gov. Always cross-check with the MPD Records Section if the arrest data is older than a few months, since recent edits may not show up in the online tool right away.
Key fields in a Maui County arrest record:
- Arrestee name, date of birth, and physical descriptors
- Arrest date, time, and precise location
- Booking officer and report number
- Charges with HRS citation and class
- Warrant status and court case number
- Bond or bail amount and conditions
Second Circuit Court and eCourt
The Second Circuit Court serves Maui County. The main court sits at Hoapili Hale, 2145 Main Street, Wailuku, HI 96793. The main line is (808) 244-2800. The Legal Documents Division is (808) 244-2969. The Victim Witness Assistance office is (808) 270-7695. The Second Circuit covers Maui, Lanai, Molokai, and Kalawao. Felony cases, family court matters, and civil cases all move through Hoapili Hale.
The court keeps case files for every Maui County released inmates file that hits a courtroom. Copy fees are $0.25 per page. Certification is $2.00 per document. Pay by money order or cashier's check. Walk-in requests go to the Legal Documents Division during court hours. Closed case files are public. Sealed files and juvenile files are not.
The state courts run a free online case lookup called eCourt Kokua. It covers most Second Circuit cases. You can search by name, by case number, or by citation. The tool shows the case caption, the charges, the hearing dates, and the disposition. It does not show every filing. For the full file, you still need a court visit. The court page at courts.hawaii.gov/courts/2nd_circuit has hours, forms, and self-help info.
For the main state courts page with the eCourt Kokua link, go to courts.hawaii.gov. The site also has a calendar of court events and rules of court.
Maui County Inmate Search Tools
Maui County does not run a live jail roster. MCCC custody info comes through the DCR and through SAVIN. You can also pull adult criminal history through the state HCJDC. Each tool fills a piece of the Maui County released inmates picture. The mix you need depends on what you are trying to find.
SAVIN is the Hawaii Statewide Automated Victim Information and Notification system. It runs through VINELink. You sign up to get a call, text, or email when an inmate's custody status changes. That covers release, transfer, and escape. There is no charge to use it. The tool is open to anyone, not just victims. Find it at vinelink.com.
The Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center runs eCrim. That tool returns adult conviction history. It covers every circuit, including the Second. The fee is $5 per name search paid online. The search needs a full name and date of birth. Juvenile records are never in eCrim. Non-conviction data is also blocked. Start at ecrim.ehawaii.gov. The HCJDC also runs an in-person access site at the Maui Police Department HQ at (808) 244-6345.
For federal inmates held on Maui or shipped off-island to a federal facility, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator at bop.gov/inmateloc. That tool covers every federal prison and detention center, including FDC Honolulu. For the live custody side, call MCCC at (808) 243-5101. Pair the state, court, and federal tools for the most complete view of a Maui County released inmates file.
Main tools for Maui County released inmates searches:
- Hawaii SAVIN through VINELink for custody change alerts
- HCJDC eCrim for adult conviction history
- Second Circuit eCourt Kokua for case status
- MPD Records Section for arrest files
- MCCC Visitor Hotline for current custody confirmation
For more on the HCJDC process, see ag.hawaii.gov/hcjdc/criminal-history-records-check. Online data can be a few hours behind real custody changes. Call MCCC at (808) 243-5101 to confirm a current release.
