Homeland Busted Mugshots
Homeland is tiny. The April 1, 2020 Census counted 886 residents. For city contact, start with the official City of Homeland page. Does the city have its own police force? A sheriff's biography hints that it does, but only thinly. It names Patrol Captain Perry Green, who also holds the rank of Major with Homeland Police. That overlap links people, not agencies. It merges nothing about records.
A custodial Homeland arrest would normally land at the Charlton County Jail, though the city page never says so outright. Check each case. Citations, juvenile placements, medical holds, transfers, federal matters, and immigration detention can all go elsewhere. For county booking questions, contact Sheriff Robert Phillips and the Charlton County Sheriff's Office.
Where Homeland Busted Records Appear
Homeland's official web presence has nothing that works as a public arrest source. No daily bulletin. No arrest log. No recent-bookings view and no mugshot page. There is no stated update cadence either. No archive, and no photo policy. That gap matters. It keeps a general city contact page from being mistaken for an online roster.
| Channel | Verified result | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Homeland municipal office | General contact only; no dedicated police records line, form, or copy instructions verified | Ask which custodian holds a city incident report. |
| Homeland Police Department | Department existence supported by the sheriff biography, but no public log or photo feed | Use the municipal office to route the question. |
| Charlton County Sheriff's Office and jail | No public roster or booking feed verified | Call or file an Open Records request for jail-held intake. |
| Charlton County Herald | Countywide periodic news, not a city feed | Use a story as a lead, then verify agency and court records. |
| Mugshots.com | Historical county archive, visible dates through 2018 | Unofficial and stale, with no assured Homeland stream. |
A sparse web footprint is the finding itself. It is not a reason to substitute Folkston information for Homeland's. The city custodian and the county sheriff hold different records. They serve different functions too.
Find Homeland Busted Records
Start any Homeland search with the record type. The city may hold an incident report. The sheriff may hold a jail booking. The clerk may hold the disposition. No single online result covers all three.
- Contact the general Homeland office and ask which custodian created or keeps the city report.
- For current county custody, call the Charlton County Sheriff's Office at 912-496-7321. The ordinary jail destination remains an inference to verify.
- For a past booking or photograph, use the sheriff's Open Records Request and choose “Other.” Request the booking record and photograph separately.
- Use Georgia Courts e-access and the Charlton clerk for a State or Superior case. Do not rely on the city page for a court disposition.
- Compare dates, agency, case number, and the latest court event. A name match alone is weak evidence.
For the wider picture, the county-wide Charlton County Busted Mugshots records path covers the absence of any roster or feed, the GDC distinction, and the request fallback.
Homeland Busted City Records
Homeland's official municipal page lists its office at 401 Pennsylvania Avenue, Homeland, GA 31537, with phone 912-496-7332 and fax 912-496-3747. Hours run Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., closing from noon to 1 p.m. Beyond that, the page offers little. No police chief is named, no direct police number, no email, no records form, no fee schedule, and no copy process appear anywhere. Treat the general number as an inquiry route only.
City of Homeland
401 Pennsylvania Avenue
Homeland, GA 31537
912-496-7332
Fax: 912-496-3747
Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; closed noon to 1 p.m.
When you call, ask who the police-report custodian is. Ask what a request requires. A written form may apply, or a fee, or a delivery method, or in-person pickup. Do not assume the city keeps county booking sheets or booking photographs. Those belong with the sheriff.
- Give the incident date, location, subject, and the kind of report sought.
- Ask whether the Homeland office or another agency is the records custodian.
- Request any fee and timing estimate before relying on the response.
- Send a separate county request for jail intake and a photo if the arrest became a booking.
Homeland's Police Footprint
The biography note about Perry Green is a genuinely distinctive local detail. It confirms a Homeland police role while leaving the two agencies fully separate. A county patrol contact is not automatically the city records custodian. A city report is not automatically a jail booking.
The overlap does explain why both agency names surface in local public-safety stories. Records still follow whoever made them or holds them. Ask the sheriff about custody and intake. Ask Homeland for a city-created incident record. Ask the court clerk for the disposition.
Read nothing more into the biography. It names no police chief, no station address, no dedicated records line, and no online arrest cadence. Those details simply were not there.
Homeland Busted County Booking
A Homeland arrest normally lands at the Charlton County Jail. That is the practical default, though the city itself does not spell it out. A few exceptions matter. Juvenile files stay sealed. Federal, state, medical, or immigration holds can send a person somewhere else entirely.
There is no online booking roster here. To learn who is in custody right now, call 912-496-7321. For a copy of the record itself, the better tool is the Charlton Sheriff's Open Records Request. Pick "Other" on the form. Give the person's name and the date, and ask for the booking sheet and the photo as separate items. Request electronic delivery and an estimate of costs up front. Glenda Todd is listed as the contact, and no local fee schedule is published. Older files also start with the sheriff. The Georgia Archives notes that county records usually stay local. Skip the state's Central Register of Convicts for this; it tracks prison history, not Homeland booking photos.
Georgia law restricts how agencies post booking photos online. An answer to a lawful request may come back redacted or withheld. Whatever you receive should stay private rather than end up in a gallery.
Retention is one thing; visibility is another. Georgia keeps jail booking records ten years after release. Jail registers are kept ten years after the last entry. Name the person, a date range, and the series you want when asking about an older Homeland matter. If the record has moved, ask where it went. The county commission's general form is no substitute for the sheriff's route. Ask the actual custodian for the estimate and the reason behind any redaction. A report, a booking sheet, and a court outcome may sit in three different offices.
Homeland Crime News
The Charlton County Herald covers the whole county and sometimes reports on Homeland incidents. There is no dedicated Homeland blotter, and no fixed schedule for coverage. Regional papers pick and choose what they run. One story may bundle several sheriff incidents together. Its picture could be a badge or a scene shot rather than a booking photo.
Mugshots.com keeps a county-tagged historical archive, but its visible dates stop in 2018. That is not a live Homeland feed. Busted Newspaper, RecentlyBooked, Arrests.org, and Mugshots.zone have no verified Charlton-local page either. Beware of generic results or neighboring-county items dressed up as Homeland material.
The official City of Homeland page describes the small municipal apparatus itself.
The image is a contact reference, not an arrest list or booking-photo source.
Homeland Court Records
After intake, the official outcome path separates from the city office. Georgia Courts e-access points to State and Superior Court records for Charlton and requires an account with the linked provider. The Clerk of Superior, State & Juvenile Courts is at 1520 Third Street, Suite A, Folkston, 912-496-2354, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Match the person, arrest date, agency, and case or warrant number. Check the latest operative entry for an amended accusation, dismissal, nolle prosequi, no bill, plea, verdict, sentence, restriction, or sealing order. A failed name search is inconclusive. Juvenile matters have separate confidentiality rules and should not be treated as a public adult booking search.
State prison custody belongs to the Georgia Department of Corrections, not Charlton County Jail. The Georgia Department of Corrections Offender Query may show a state offender photo if available, but it does not index every Homeland arrest.
Homeland Lookup Terms
These distinctions keep a small-city search accurate.
| Record term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Incident report | A report created or held by the agency handling the event; it is not automatically a booking file. |
| Booking | County jail intake that records an charge and related fields. |
| Release | Leaving custody, not a court dismissal or acquittal. |
| Disposition | The court's later resolution of the case. |
| Restriction or sealing | Legal steps that limit access; neither should be described as automatic erasure of every copy. |
Homeland barely exists online, so going straight to the custodian is the smart move. A news story, a name match, or an old archive entry settles nothing. Confirm everything with the right government office. Write down the date you checked.
