Assumption Parish Sheriff and Jail Mugshots
Sheriff Leland Falcon heads the Assumption Parish Sheriff's Office. The office and jail are both at 223 Highway 1008 in Napoleonville.

Each person arrested gets photographed, and that jail mugshot becomes part of their Assumption Parish booking record.
The Assumption Parish sheriff's office is active on their website when it comes to posting arrest information. They maintain an arrests archive that includes the person's name, charges, and details about the arrest. These posts by Sheriff Falcon's office give the public a clear look at who has been booked into the Assumption Parish jail. The arrest archive goes back several months and is one of the better sources for recent jail mugshot information in this area. Each arrest creates a new mugshot record.
