Purpose of This Resource
Illinois makes many custody and release records available, but those records sit in different systems. Union Sheriff may hold arrest or transport records, while Pulaski County Detention Center creates detention and release records for Union detainees held under contract. IDOC maintains state-prison status and release fields. Judicial probation and IDOC parole cover different forms of supervision, and the BOP locator covers federal prison releases. This site organizes those release paths, searches, and request steps in one place.
Information Available Here
The pages are arranged around the record or agency most likely to answer a release question.
- The home page covers the full released-person search, with separate help for an inmate release date, a VINELink release check, and parole or probation.
- Facility pages explain the Pulaski detention arrangement and the Union Sheriff’s local records function, with available contact details.
- Lookup instructions distinguish a local jail event from an IDOC status, federal record, or immigration detention result.
- Records-request guidance identifies useful booking, release, and photograph fields and explains the stated response process.
Limits of This Site
This is a privately operated reference site. It has no connection to an Illinois sheriff, jail, corrections department, court, or other government agency.
- We cannot hold, release, or transfer a person in custody.
- We cannot post bond, arrange visits, or send funds for anyone.
- We cannot provide legal advice.
- We cannot promise that every phone number, address, or fee remains current.
Only the responsible sheriff, detention center, court, or corrections department can officially confirm custody, charges, or release. This site can identify the likely source, but it cannot make that confirmation.
Third-Party Search Partners
Some pages contain search tools run by outside providers. Those providers control their own results and prices. If a visitor follows a tool and buys a subscription or other paid service, this site may receive a referral fee that helps keep access free. We do not set the provider’s charges or control its records.
