Find an Inmate in Bond County

Most local arrests end up at the Bond County Jail, 403 South Second Street, Greenville, IL 62246 (618-664-2151). Search VINELink first. VINELink tracks custody and sends alerts when the Sheriff's Office books someone. Empty result? The person may be in Clinton County; the sheriff at 618-664-4689 can confirm. Read on for the county lookup, other jails, and what comes after booking.

1. How do I search for an inmate?

  1. Open VINELink with the person's name.
  2. Search VINELink online, or with the VINELink app for iPhone and the VINELink app for Android.

Illinois treats adult booking photos as public (5 ILCS 140/2.15). Photo requests go to the sheriff under state public records law; call 618-664-4689 first. Juvenile photos are not released. Most U.S. Marshals Service photos stay private too, under 5 U.S.C. 552. ICE records for someone held by the Sheriff's Office go through the ICE FOIA request page with the jail name and dates.

11. Checking for a warrant in Greenville and Bond County

Sheriff's deputies work every warrant in the county, from Pocahontas down to Sorento. A short call to 618-664-4689 settles whether deputies hold a warrant for you. A Bond County judge's warrant also lands in the case docket on re:SearchIL, Illinois' statewide court-records site, where you can read it yourself. That holds once your own e-filing is accepted; a represented party asks the lawyer instead. Turning yourself in to the jail, with a lawyer by your side, lets you choose the day instead of having it chosen for you. To get back on the court calendar, phone the circuit clerk at 618-664-3208 or stop by 200 W. College Avenue, Greenville, IL 62246.
