The sheriff’s official page did not publish records-office hours, so call before an in-person visit. Ask the office to confirm the current FOIA contact and submission address. Then choose the route that matches the record or custody system:
- For a booking record or releasable photo, use the sheriff request steps or contact the arresting police agency.
- For an active warrant, consult the official warrant routes, the court, or an attorney.
- For a same-day report, follow Arrests Last 24 Hours; for several days of reports, use the Police Blotter.
- For custody alerts, check the VINELink Custody Check and confirm an uncertain result with the jail.
- For a court filing or disposition, contact the McDonough County Circuit Clerk or use the McDonough Judici search.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Illinois Department of Corrections inmate search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the separate Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator.
