How to Request Woodbury Police Records
To request a police report or other records from the Woodbury Police Department, contact the main office at 651-714-3600. The department does have email contact available, but the city explicitly notes that email is not monitored 24 hours a day and should not be used to request police reports. For report requests, phone or in-person contact is the proper method.
Woodbury handles data practices requests under Minnesota's Government Data Practices Act, which includes Minn. Stat. 13.82 for arrest data. Incident reports, crash reports, and call logs may all be requested. Some records tied to active cases or juvenile matters are restricted and not available to the public.
The department does not list a specific online request portal, so the most direct approach is to call the main number and ask the Records section for the form or process used in Woodbury. Response times vary by record type and complexity.
Note: Do not email the Woodbury Police Department to request police reports -- email is not monitored at all hours and the department asks that report requests come in through the main office phone line.
Washington County Jail Booking Records
Everyone arrested in Woodbury is booked at the Washington County Jail. Washington County publishes daily booking reports as PDF files at web1.co.washington.mn.us/WCBookings. These reports list people booked on each date along with their charges. The data is public under Minn. Stat. 13.82. You can check recent days to find a specific booking or confirm whether someone was held.
The PDF format means you can download and review each day's report directly. Each entry typically includes name, date of birth, booking date, and charges. The reports are updated on a daily basis. If you are looking for an older booking, earlier PDFs may still be accessible through the same portal.
For more on how Washington County handles jail records, fees, and bookings overall, see the Washington County Booking Reports page.
Note: Washington County's booking PDFs reflect the date of entry into custody -- charges may change after arraignment, so check court records for the current status of any specific case.
VINE Custody Notifications
VINE -- Victim Information and Notification Everyday -- is available to anyone who needs to track custody status after a Woodbury arrest. Register free at vinelink.com or call 1-877-MN-4-VINE. The system sends automatic alerts when the person is released, moved, or has a court date. It ties directly into the Washington County Jail's records, so you do not need to call the facility to check on changes.

Court Records and BCA Checks for Woodbury Cases
Booking records show that an arrest happened. They do not show what the court did with the case. To find that out, use Minnesota Court Records Online at publicaccess.courts.state.mn.us. This free state system lets you search by name for case numbers, charges, hearing dates, and final outcomes. Woodbury cases go through the 10th Judicial District, which covers Washington County.
The 10th District handles a large portion of the eastern metro. If charges were reduced, dropped, or led to a conviction, the court record is the place to confirm that. Booking reports and jail rosters only reflect the initial point of intake. The full picture requires checking both the jail record and the court file.
For statewide conviction history, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension runs a background search tool at dps.mn.gov. BCA results show convictions across all Minnesota counties and carry a small fee. They are commonly used for employment screening, licensing, and official verification purposes.
If someone was convicted and is now in a state correctional facility, the MN Department of Corrections Offender Locator at coms.doc.state.mn.us shows current placement and custody status.
