This is a private reference site, not a Madison County or Illinois government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record for those services.

Use these routes according to the record or custody system involved:

  • For a Madison County release or historical custody record, start with the full release search and records-request path.
  • For supervision after release, identify the system through Probation & Parole.
  • For a recent interval, use Jail Releases: 24 Hours; the county does not publish a live browseable feed.
  • For a future state date or an alert, use Projected Release and VINELink Inmate Search.
  • For facility-specific access, use the Madison County Jail or Juvenile Detention Home page listed below.
  • For a sentenced Illinois prisoner, use the IDOC Individual in Custody Search or IDOC Records.
  • For federal prison or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator that matches the responsible agency.
