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


Choose the Right Record Office

The Saline County Sheriff’s Office is the verified county contact for detention and booking questions. The office lists 24-hour availability, though that does not promise instant handling of a non-emergency records request.

Saline County Sheriff’s Office
Saline County Detention Center
1 N Main St
Harrisburg, IL 62946
Phone: 618-252-8661
FOIA: info@salinecosheriff.com

Use the office whose system matches the question:

  • For a county booking record or available photo, use the sheriff’s written FOIA channel and the request details on the home page.
  • For a newly arrested person, call the sheriff to ask whether the person was received at the detention center.
  • For release or transfer alerts, test the Illinois VINE service and confirm any result with the holding agency.
  • For a filed criminal case or current disposition, contact the Saline County Circuit Clerk or use its Judici link.
  • For a person sentenced to state custody, use the Illinois Department of Corrections offender search.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP or ICE locator instead of the county jail contact.
