Sheriff Records Division
Public-record and case-report requests are handled at 720 Central Avenue. Records hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The sheriff's records page says requesters should arrive before 3:30 p.m. for records requests, background checks, gun permit business, and sex or violent offender registry business.
Public-record requests must use the department form and include a copy of the requester's state ID. The records page lists fax, email through the sheriff site, and in-person submission. Fees may apply, and the office does not accept personal checks, online payments, or phone payments.
Use the official source that matches the question:
- For someone in local county custody, use jail inmate records and the Madison County Jail phone line.
- For a booking photo, use jail roster mugshots and the Records Division request process if the photo is not visible online.
- For filed charges, hearings, and dispositions after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and Indiana MyCase.
- For a specific local or state facility, use the facility links in the footer and confirm the correct roster or locator before visiting.
- For a sentenced Indiana state prisoner, use the Indiana Department of Correction incarcerated person locator, not the county roster.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator, federal court or U.S. Marshals channels, or the ICE detainee locator.
