Plantation Arrest Records in Broward County
The Broward County Sheriff's Office processes all bookings from Plantation arrests. When someone gets picked up by the Plantation Police, they are transported to the Broward County jail at 555 SE 1st Avenue in Fort Lauderdale. The mugshot and all booking information are created there. The Broward County arrest search app lets you look up Plantation booking records by name. Each result shows the mugshot, charges, bond amount, and arresting agency.
You can also use the sheriff's arrest search page to access the same database. Both options pull from the central Broward County system. Plantation is one of many Broward County cities whose arrests all feed into this single database. Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Davie, Pompano Beach, Coral Springs, and all other Broward cities are in the same system.

Plantation Mugshots and Florida Public Records
Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes governs access to Plantation arrest records. Section 119.01 requires that all state, county, and municipal records be open for inspection and copying. Providing access is a duty of each agency. You do not need to state your name, show identification, or explain your purpose when requesting Plantation mugshots.
Exemptions are limited. Active and former law enforcement officers can request confidentiality for their booking photos under Section 119.071(4)(d). Victim details from sexual offense cases are protected under Section 119.071(4)(h). For the vast majority of Plantation arrests, the mugshot and full booking record are available to anyone.
Standard copy fees apply. Single-sided copies cost 15 cents per page. Double-sided pages are 20 cents. Certified copies can run up to $1.00 each. Large requests that take more than 30 minutes of staff time may come with additional labor charges from the Broward County Sheriff.
Removing Plantation Arrest Records
Getting a Plantation arrest record sealed or expunged goes through the FDLE seal and expunge section. Sealing under Section 943.059 hides the record from the public. Expungement under Section 943.0585 destroys it. The fee is $75 by money order to FDLE, and the process takes about 12 weeks.
Call 850-410-7870 or email SEinfo@fdle.state.fl.us for information. After the court order, the Broward County Sheriff removes the Plantation booking from the arrest search database. Third-party mugshot websites may keep copies online since they operate outside the court order. You would need to contact those sites separately for removal of any Plantation photos they published.
