The Abbeville LA Police Department, located at 101 N State St, Abbeville, LA, serves as the primary law enforcement agency for the municipality. This department is responsible for executing judicial directives, including the enforcement of arrest warrants and conducting property checks. For individuals seeking information on recent arrestees, they may contact the booking department directly at 337-893-2511 or access the most recent arrest records. However, it is important to note that this police station has only a single holding cell and does not provide short-term inmate-holding services. As a result, the facility does not offer commissary, visitation, incoming mail, or telephone call services. Instead, those requiring such services should utilize the free inmate search tool provided.

Operating without an on-site detention facility, the Police Department functions as the central hub for law enforcement and administrative activities within the city. The department's responsibilities extend across a broad spectrum, including law enforcement, community policing, criminal investigations, and administrative support. The police officers are tasked with maintaining public safety, responding to emergencies, conducting investigations, and enforcing court orders.

Upon the arrest of an individual within the city, the Department oversees the initial booking process, which involves recording personal information, documenting the arrest, and taking fingerprints and photographs. Due to the absence of a holding jail at the sheriff's administrative facility, arrestees are promptly transferred to a nearby county jail. This detention facility is specifically designed to house inmates and manage their needs from the time of arrest through the adjudication of their cases.

The transfer to the county jail ensures that detainees are securely housed in a facility equipped to deal with various security and logistical requirements. This center provides essential services such as housing, meals, medical care, and access to legal resources. Additionally, it facilitates visitation, and communication with family members and legal representatives, and offers programs that may assist in rehabilitation or legal defense.

This Department focuses on its core enforcement and administrative duties while collaborating closely with the regional detention center to ensure that arrested individuals are appropriately processed and securely held until their legal matters are resolved. This partnership allows the police to concentrate on maintaining law and order within the city while leveraging the resources and infrastructure of the regional detention facility for effective inmate management.
