Maple Grove Busted Mugshots
Maple Grove busted mugshots are held by the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office since the city does not run its own jail. When someone gets picked up in Maple Grove on a warrant or new charge, they go to the Hennepin County Jail in downtown Minneapolis for processing. About 76,000 people call Maple Grove home, and it sits in the northwest part of the metro. You can look up recent bookings through the Hennepin County jail roster site. That roster shows names, charges, and booking photos for people in custody right now. The Maple Grove Police Department handles local law enforcement but all jail intake flows through the county system.
Maple Grove Overview
Hennepin County Handles Maple Grove Bookings
All arrests in Maple Grove go through Hennepin County for booking and jail processing. The county runs the Adult Detention Center in downtown Minneapolis, and that is where mugshots get taken and logged into the system. The Maple Grove Police Department makes the arrest, but the county jail takes over from there. This means you search for Maple Grove busted mugshots through county resources, not a city database.
The Hennepin County Sheriff posts a jail roster online at jailroster.hennepin.us. It shows who is in custody right now. You can search by name and see the booking photo, charges, and bail info. The roster updates throughout the day as new bookings come in and people get released. Keep in mind that once someone bonds out or gets transferred, their info may drop off the active roster.

Busted Mugshots Laws in Minnesota
Minnesota law treats booking photos as public data. Under Minn. Stat. 13.82, subd. 26, mugshots are available to anyone who asks. This is part of the state's Data Practices Act, which leans toward open access for law enforcement records. Arrest data like the name, date, place of arrest, and charges are also public under subdivision 2 of that same statute.
Criminal history data works a bit differently. Under Minn. Stat. 13.87, conviction records are public for 15 years after a person finishes their sentence. After that window closes, the data becomes private again. Arrest data that did not lead to a conviction is generally private. So if someone was booked in Maple Grove but the charges got dropped, their arrest record may not be available through the BCA system.
People can petition for expungement under Minn. Stat. 609A.01. If a court grants expungement, the records get sealed. They no longer show up in public searches. The wait time depends on the offense level. Petty misdemeanors and misdemeanors need two years clean. Gross misdemeanors need three. Some felonies can be expunged after four or five years.
