Graham Busted Mugshots
Graham is the Alamance County seat. The April 1, 2020 Census put its population at 17,157. Its police department runs patrol, investigations, narcotics, records, fingerprinting, and school-resource units. All of that generates plenty of city paperwork. None of it adds up to a county jail roster, though. An arrest in Graham can also involve ACSO or another agency.
Once someone is booked into county custody, the ACSO P2C Inmate Inquiry is the official tool. The public grid shows display name, primary charge, arrest date, and booking agency. No booking photo appears there. So a city report and a photo request can land with two different custodians. The booking agency field is what ties them together.
A primary charge is a booking-stage label. The court may later amend, reduce, or dismiss it.
Graham Police's official page is the place to start for city department records and public information. Anything about county custody goes to ACSO instead.
Where Graham Busted Mugshots Appear
Graham splits its public information in a useful way. The weekly crime-data table from Graham Police lists incident dates, times, and NIBRS codes or descriptions. It is not a booking roster. It promises no photos. The police page also links a public-record form and a crash-report route. When an arrest lands in the county jail, ACSO P2C is the custody source.
| Channel | Photo? | What it answers |
|---|---|---|
| Graham Police crime data | No booking-photo promise | Weekly incident context, dates, times, and NIBRS fields. |
| Graham Police records | Ask the department | Police reports and city public information. |
| ACSO P2C roster | Not shown in observed grid | Current Alamance county-custody inquiry. |
| ACSO request | Ask for the specific booking | County record or photo if maintained and releasable. |
| ACSO press releases | Selected releases may include photos | Official event-driven coverage. |
| Local news and indexes | May show copied or supplied images | Context or discovery only, with staleness risk. |
The weekly-data capture shows incident reporting, not a Graham booking-photo gallery.
Busted in Graham: Find a Booking
Because Graham is the county seat, people often assume city and county records are one system. They are not. Work through them in this order:
- Note the name, incident date, agency, and charge wording from the source.
- Search ACSO P2C for a current county-custody entry.
- Check the booking agency, arrest date, and primary charge together.
- Call the detention center at 336-570-6317 for current custody or bail confirmation.
- Use Graham Police records for the incident or arrest report, and ACSO for a county booking record or photo request.
- Move to the Alamance court page, portal, and criminal calendars for disposition.
Someone released may drop off P2C. ACSO can still hold the booking record. A sentenced state prisoner shows up in DAC, not the county roster. The Alamance search path covers those custody changes county-wide.
Graham Police Public Requests
The department's public-record form allows Chapter 132 requests several ways. You can go in person, call, email, fax, or use another method. Send completed requests to publicinformation@cityofgraham.com. Records come out as promptly as possible, though archived, extensive, or legally reviewed requests can take longer. The form sets no special booking-photo fee.
Ask the city for the report. Ask directly whether it holds the image you want. For anyone booked at the Alamance County Detention Center, file the separate ACSO written request. Note: the crash-report timeline of roughly five business days is not the clock for a booking record.
- Identify the event and whether you need a police report, booking record, or photo.
- Send a narrow request to publicinformation@cityofgraham.com.
- Ask whether ACSO is the custodian for county booking material.
- Save the response and use the court record for the later outcome.
Graham's official page shows the city department's records and report links, kept apart from ACSO's jail records.
Graham Crime Coverage
The weekly crime-data page is the clearest city-specific incident source for Graham. It publishes the event fields the city chooses, not a list of people in custody. The department also links social accounts. Its guidance says those are not monitored around the clock: emergencies go to 911, and non-emergencies to 336-570-6711.
Local outlets can fill in the rest. Alamance News, The Times-News, and WXII 12 sometimes report Graham arrests or investigations. The county media page shows how those stories connect to P2C, records requests, and court files. Third-party sites may use "Graham" as a location tag without naming the booking agency. Trust the official report.
Selected ACSO releases can carry names, charges, bond details, wanted information, and photos. They are not a daily Graham feed. Check the date and agency on each one.
Weekly Data Is Not a Booking Log
An incident table and a booking record answer different questions. Crime data describes reported incidents with dates, times, and NIBRS descriptions. A booking record documents the moment someone entered a detention facility. One incident might produce no booking at all, several bookings, or a later court case with a different outcome.
So use the weekly report for context. Use ACSO P2C for current county custody, the ACSO records route for a specific booking item, and the courts for how a case ends. No single page is the complete list of people arrested in Graham.
