No result? Use this county-specific search order
Check booking and intake timing
A very recent arrest may not appear until identity review, fingerprinting, medical screening, classification, and the agency record are complete.
Retry only the accepted identifiers
Search Illinois VINE using the person's full legal name and any booking number or other identifier the system accepts. If no county-jail result appears, use the official Illinois Sheriffs' Association directory to contact the county sheriff and provide the identifying details requested by staff
Check release, transfer, and regional housing
A current-custody service can stop showing a person after release or transfer. Court movement, medical transport, contract housing, or a regional jail can also change the responsible agency.
Use Illinois Department of Corrections only after a state commitment
Open Individual in Custody Search after sentencing, admission, or a documented transfer to state corrections. A blank county result alone does not establish state-prison custody.
Use the federal locator only for confirmed federal placement
A local arrest does not automatically create a Federal Bureau of Prisons record. Use the BOP locator after a federal sentence or confirmed BOP placement.
Call the published public contact for urgent confirmation
Call 866-566-8439 and ask Illinois Attorney General statewide VINE, with Logan County Sheriff's Office fallback about the current custody route. Provide the full legal name and any booking, case, or agency identifier you already have.
