Access Largo Busted Mugshots

Largo busted mugshots are available through the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office. Largo is the third largest city in Pinellas County with about 82,300 residents, sitting in the heart of the Tampa Bay area between Clearwater and St. Petersburg. The Largo Police Department handles arrests in the city, but all bookings process through the Pinellas County jail at 14400 49th Street North in Clearwater. You can search for Largo arrest records and mugshots through the county's inmate search system. Florida law makes these records public, and no identification or reason is required to look them up.

Largo Police Department Arrests

The Largo Police Department provides law enforcement for the city. Officers patrol neighborhoods, respond to calls, and make arrests across Largo. The city covers a sizable area in central Pinellas County. Everything from drug arrests to DUI stops to warrant pickups gets processed the same way. The Largo PD makes the arrest, but the Pinellas County Sheriff takes over from there.

After a Largo arrest, the person is transported to the Pinellas County jail in Clearwater at 14400 49th Street North. This is where the booking photo gets taken, charges get entered, and the record enters the public system. The Pinellas County Sheriff can be reached at 727-464-6415. All Largo arrests show up in the same database alongside bookings from St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and every other municipality in the county.

Largo sits right in the geographic middle of Pinellas County, which is one of the most densely populated counties in Florida. The police department handles a steady volume of arrests throughout the year. The city's mix of residential areas, commercial corridors, and the Largo Central Park area means varied types of calls and arrests.

Largo Mugshot Search Resources

Florida provides statewide tools for finding arrest records, including those from Largo. The screenshot below shows the Florida Department of State county jail directory, which links to inmate search tools for all 67 Florida counties including Pinellas County where Largo bookings are held.

Through the Pinellas County Sheriff's inmate search, you can look up Largo bookings by name and date. The results display mugshots, charges, bond information, and the arresting agency. For Largo arrests, the arresting agency field will show Largo PD. The Florida Jail Information System is another tool that aggregates booking data from across the state, and it includes Pinellas County records.

Note: The Pinellas County inmate search updates regularly, but recently booked individuals may take a short time to appear.

Largo Arrest Records and Public Access

Largo busted mugshots are public records under Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes. This law says that all records of state, county, and municipal agencies are open for personal inspection. The Pinellas County Sheriff must provide access to Largo booking records when someone asks. Section 119.01 makes it clear that this is a duty, not a favor.

You can search anonymously. Florida law does not require you to give your name, provide ID, or explain your reason. This is true whether you use the online search, visit in person, or submit a written request. Copy fees are 15 cents per single-sided page and 20 cents for double-sided. Certified copies can run up to $1.00.

Sealing Largo Busted Mugshots

If you were arrested in Largo and want to get the record sealed or expunged, Florida law provides two options. Court-ordered sealing under Section 943.059 hides the record from public view while keeping it accessible to the courts. Expungement under Section 943.0585 physically destroys the record. Both go through FDLE's seal and expunge section.

The cost is $75 by money order payable to FDLE. Processing takes around 12 weeks from the time FDLE gets a complete application. You can reach the seal and expunge section at 850-410-7870 or by emailing SEinfo@fdle.state.fl.us. Not every Largo arrest qualifies. Certain offenses and prior grants of sealing or expungement can block eligibility. If approved, the Pinellas County Sheriff removes the booking record from public search tools.

Something that surprises many people: private mugshot websites are not required to remove your photo even after a court order. The official government records get cleaned up, but third-party sites operate independently. This is worth understanding before you start the process.

Note: The $75 FDLE fee is nonrefundable even if your application gets denied.

State Databases for Largo Records

Beyond the Pinellas County system, several state databases can help with Largo arrest searches. The Florida DOC offender search tracks anyone sentenced to state prison after an arrest in Largo or elsewhere. FDLE offers statewide criminal history checks for $24. Call 850-410-8109 to request one. The FDLE also runs a wanted persons database that includes warrants from agencies across Florida.

Pinellas County Records

Largo is located in Pinellas County, which is one of the most populated counties in Florida. The county jail at 14400 49th Street North in Clearwater processes all Largo bookings. You can reach the Pinellas County Sheriff at 727-464-6415 for records requests. If the online inmate search does not have the Largo record you are looking for, a formal public records request to the sheriff's office is the next step. Pinellas County is small in land area but has a large population, so the jail and booking system handles a high volume of arrests from Largo and the many other cities packed into the peninsula.
