Use the closest match for the question you are trying to answer:
- For someone held at the county jail, use the sheriff roster PDF, the Indiana County Jail Public Portal, and the jail inmate records guide.
- For booking-photo questions, review jail roster mugshots and contact the sheriff if the photo or booking record is not posted online.
- For formal charges, filed cases, hearing dates, or court documents, use MyCase and the court records after a jail arrest page, then contact the clerk if a document is not online.
- For the local jail address, phone, visitation, mail, and commissary details, use the Franklin County Security Center facility page.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Indiana Department of Correction incarcerated-person locator rather than the Franklin County jail roster.
- For federal sentenced custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. For immigration detention, use ICE ODLS. Those systems are separate from Franklin County jail custody.
- For custody and release notifications, use Indiana SAVIN, which the sheriff links as a notification resource.
