Sugar Hill Booking Reports

Sugar Hill booking reports are handled by the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office, which runs the county jail in Lawrenceville where Sugar Hill arrestees are booked and held.

This page covers the search tools, the records themselves, and how Georgia law governs access.

Gwinnett County Sheriff and Sugar Hill Bookings

All Sugar Hill arrests go to the Gwinnett County Jail at 2900 University Parkway, Lawrenceville, GA 30043. The jail is operated by the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office. Under O.C.G.A. § 42-4-7, the sheriff is required by state law to keep records for everyone in custody. That duty covers people arrested by the Sugar Hill Police Department as well as those picked up by Gwinnett County Sheriff's deputies working in the area.

The Sugar Hill Police Department at 770-945-6656 handles traffic enforcement, calls for service, and criminal investigations within city limits.

Searching Sugar Hill Booking Reports Online

The Gwinnett County Jail View at gwinnettcountysheriff.com/smartwebclient is the best online tool for Sugar Hill booking reports. You can search by name or booking date. Each result shows the booking number, charges, bond amount if set, and the arresting officer. No account or fee is required. Sugar Hill arrests appear alongside bookings from other Gwinnett cities, all processed at the same county facility in Lawrenceville.

The Gwinnett system is more detailed than many county jail views in Georgia. The booking number is useful if you need to submit an open records request for more detail on a specific case. For records older than what the online system shows, contact the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office directly. Booking photo access falls under O.C.G.A. § 35-1-19, which governs commercial mugshot sites but does not limit the sheriff's own records system.

Note: Bond amounts in the online system reflect what was set at the bond hearing. They may not reflect changes made by a judge after the initial hearing.

Sugar Hill Booking Records and What They Show

A Sugar Hill booking record will include the person's full name, date of birth, date and time they were booked at the Gwinnett County Jail, charges, arresting agency, and bond information once available. Booking photographs are part of the official record and are generally public in Georgia. The booking report is created at the jail, not at the scene of the arrest. It documents the intake process and establishes the official record of custody.

Sugar Hill Police handle arrests for a full range of offenses. Traffic-related charges, property crimes, and more serious felonies all generate booking reports when the person is taken into custody and processed at the Gwinnett County Jail. Bond hearings typically happen within 72 hours. The booking report does not show the final outcome of a case. It is a record of arrest and processing, not a finding of guilt.

Open Records Access for Sugar Hill Arrests

Sugar Hill booking reports are public records under O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 et seq., the Georgia Open Records Act. Any person may request or view these records without providing a reason. The Gwinnett County Sheriff's jail view system is an expression of that obligation. It makes booking data available to any member of the public at no cost and without a formal request.

For records beyond what the online system shows, submit a written open records request to the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office. Georgia law requires agencies to respond within three business days. Standard adult booking records for Sugar Hill arrests are almost always released. Some exceptions exist under O.C.G.A. § 50-18-72, such as active investigation files. If a request is denied, the agency must provide a written explanation citing the applicable exemption.
