Mauldin Police and Arrest Processing
The Mauldin Police Department works from 5 Center Street, Mauldin, SC 29662. You can reach them at (864) 289-8800. Officers patrol the city and respond to calls around the clock. They handle all law enforcement within city limits.

When police make an arrest, the person is transported to the Greenville County Detention Center at 20 McGee St in Greenville. Staff there take fingerprints and a photo. They log the charges and set the booking into the system. This creates the 72 hour booking record. The whole process can take a few hours from the time of arrest to the time the record shows up in the public search tool.
The detention center handles bookings from Mauldin along with those from Greenville, Simpsonville, Greer, and other cities in the county. All of these records end up in one place.

Public Records Laws in South Carolina
Booking records are public in South Carolina. The state's Freedom of Information Act requires that arrest data be released when asked. This applies to Mauldin and every other city. You do not need a reason to ask for this data.
Under Section 17-1-60 of the South Carolina Code, criminal records follow set rules for access. Most adult arrest records stay open. Juvenile records do not. The statute at 30-4-30(d)(3) lists law enforcement records as items that must be shared with the public. Bond data, arrest reports, and incident logs all fall under this rule. Mauldin 72 hour booking records are part of this open data.
Section 30-4-40(a)(3) also sets limits on what agencies can hold back. Active case files may be kept from the public in some cases. But the basic booking data, such as name, charge, and date, stays open.

Bond and Release After a Mauldin Arrest

Bond can be paid at the detention center or through a bondsman. South Carolina law requires a bond hearing within a fair time frame. For most Mauldin arrests, this is within 24 to 48 hours.
