Greer Busted Mugshots Records
Greer sits on the line between Greenville and Spartanburg counties in the Upstate region. Greer busted mugshots come from arrests made by the Greer Police Department. Because the city spans two counties, where an inmate is booked depends on which side of the line the arrest took place. People arrested on the Greenville County side go to the Greenville County Detention Center. Those arrested on the Spartanburg side go to the Spartanburg County jail. You can search Greer busted mugshots through both county inmate lookup systems to find booking photos and charge details.
How Greer Busted Mugshots Get Recorded
A Greer officer makes an arrest. The suspect is put in a patrol car. Transport heads to the county jail. On the Greenville side, that means the detention center at 20 McGee St. On the Spartanburg side, the jail is at 180 Magnolia St.
At the jail, staff begin booking. They snap a mugshot. They log the charges. Prints are taken. Bond is set. The whole process takes a few hours on a normal day. Greer busted mugshots become part of the county jail record and are searchable once processing is done.
The two-county split means Greer arrest records end up in two different systems. This is important to know when you are trying to find someone booked from a Greer arrest.
