MUGSHOTS OF RANDALL COUNTY FAQ

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today because y'all are driving the admins f*cking crazy. Please see below for our FAQ and other useful information that will allow you to get the most out of your time scrolling through the mugshots of Randall County.

🗣️01*

DID THE STOO-PID PO-PO REALLY ARREST SOMEONE FOR JAYWALKING?

Sometimes they do, but the vast majority of the time, no. Traffic citations will turn into a warrant if they are not paid. When you see a traffic violation as the "offense", chances are it's over non-payment.

🗣️02*

WHAT'S ON-VIEW?

The phrase "on view" simply means that the officer made an arrest without a warrant in hand.


Essentially, the officer established probable cause to arrest by observing or "viewing" sufficient evidence of an individual being responsible for the commission of a criminal offense.

🗣️03*

WHAT'S THOSE NUMBERS BEFORE THE CHARGE?

The warrant/cause number. This is a good way to tell if this is an old change or a new one.

🗣️04*

HE/SHE IS 17 YEARS OLD TAKE THAT DOWN RIGHT MEOW 🤬

Do you really think the police would take a minor to the big kid jail to be booked in with adults? No. They would not. And age 17 is considered an adult in the state of Texas.

🗣️05*

WTF U PUT 'White' WHEN THEY CLEARLY MEXICAN?!

There are only a few options for inputting race during booking: White, Black, and Asian, etc.


Just like when you fill out government forms, race is different from ethnicity. This is a state/federal standard that jails must follow for reporting purposes. Don't yell at us about it. 🤷🏽‍♂️
