Carroll County Jail

Day or night, you can get inmate information from the 34-bed Carroll County Jail by calling 765-822-2166.

Misdemeanor and felony arrests made in this county are brought to this facility, where the arrestee goes through booking and processing. When the charges require it, the person is held until they are released on bond, released on their own recognizance, or ordered to stay in custody until their trial is resolved.

The inmate search tool lets you browse the roster of people who have been arrested and remain in custody.

If found guilty, inmates with sentences of less than one year serve their time here. Those with longer sentences serve their time in the Indiana State Prison System or the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

This page explains how to use the jail roster, how to reach the facility, and how inmate services work, including visitation hours and policies, inmate accounts, mail, inmate calls, voicemail, email and text, tablet rentals, bail, and commissary.

You’ll often be asked for the inmate’s booking number or jail ID, so save it once you find it. If you can’t locate it online, call Carroll County Jail at 765-822-2166.

This is also how you would share any medical or other concerns about an inmate and arrange drop off for prescription medication if necessary. Prescriptions are the only personal item that may be dropped off at the facility, and they will need to be in original packaging, labelled, and include the dosage and instructions.

Other ways that friends or family are able to offer support to their loved ones during incarceration are by writing correspondence, accepting their phone calls, providing for money for their phone calls and commissary purchases, and by engaging in visits.

A money order may be dropped off at the jail directly, in person or via mail, at any time of day.

All mail must be through the USPS and will not be accepted otherwise, sent to the correct address with inmate first and last legal name (and no nicknames), with a complete return address.

Letters will be checked for more than 5 pictures, as well as each picture being checked for inappropriate content, colored pencils and crayons or markers are not permitted for use in creating art to send to an inmate, no stickers, glue, string, or other additions are permitted, and soft cover books may be sent direct from a publisher only.

Visits may be attended at the visiting stations in the jail for those who are unable to access from home or via remote visits. Both require scheduling in advance through an online account which can be created remotely from any internet enabled device or in the jail lobby.

How does the booking process work at Carroll County Jail?

Once someone is arrested, they are taken to Carroll County Jail for booking. This process involves identifying the individual, determining charges, and deciding if they will be released on their own recognizance, released on bail, or held in custody until their court date.

It’s important for the arrestee to stay silent, as anything they say can be used against them. The best advice is to avoid answering any questions about the arrest until legal counsel is present.

The booking process at Carroll County Jail typically includes the following steps:

  • Verifying identity.
  • Taking a mugshot.
  • Answering questions regarding medical, mental health, and substance use history.
  • DNA collection, if required.
  • Conducting a thorough search.
  • Confiscating personal belongings.
  • Providing a free phone call.

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Carroll County Jail?

There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:
