About the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio
Often referred to as the CCN, the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio is a combined effort from four jurisdictions and the local Marshals. It houses inmates and offenders from all of the jurisdictions that participate, and each is allocated a number of beds based upon their predicted needs for the upcoming year. The facility is used to hold all detainees including those who have been arrested and require booking to those that are serving their sentence after a trial. By combining the financial and other resources of the neighboring counties allows for a larger and more advanced facility than they would be able to build on their own. Several courses and classes are offered to assist in furthering education, mental health care, and substance abuse concerns. Specialized programs for PTSD and multiple diagnosis are in place to help inmates build skills they need after release, anger management is available, as well as a program to help those with addictions build stronger relationships with their families after release. Visitors are encouraged during visiting hours but must be registered in advance. Funds can be added to an inmates account via an online portal to allow their purchases of food and personal items. Visits are premitted on a prebooked bases from Monday thorugh Sunday with lobby visits being 12pm-2:30pm and agin 5:30pm-7:30pm and home or offsite visits beginning at 7:30am-10am, 12pm-2:30pm, and again 5:30pm-10:30pm.

To find out if someone you know has been recently arrested and booked into the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio, call the jail’s booking line at 419-428-3800.

There may be an automated method of looking them up by their name over the phone, or you may be directed to speak to someone at the jail. Sometimes the jail staff may ask you the offender’s date of birth to ensure privacy of the offender’s status.

Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio Booking Roster

What happens during booking in Williams County?

After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Williams County for booking.

Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.

What is the booking process like at the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio?

Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Williams County and other Ohio and USA jurisdictions.

If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.

It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.

What kind of questions are asked during booking?

The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.

What happens to an offender’s personal property during booking?

During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.

Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.

What happens after booking?

At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.

If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.

Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.

How long does the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio Booking process take?

Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.

If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.

Inmate Bail and Bonding

The Sheriffs from the counties that have inmates in the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio recommend that you use a bail bond agent licensed to do business in their jurisdictions.... Defiance County, Fulton County, Henry County and Lucas County.

You can pay a cash bond yourself, or use your home in the area, or in some cases, Ohio, but the benefit of using a bail bond agent is that they take responsibility for making sure the inmate shows up for court, and if they don't, then they take the responsibility.
The typical fee for a bond will be between 10-20% of the bail amount; usually 15%. 
So if an offender has a bail of $10,000.00, their bond will be $1500.00.

Call 419-428-3800 to find out the exact bond (plus other fees) amount, or look it up online by looking up their information on the /city-and-county-jails/ohio/williams-county/corrections-center-of-northwest-ohio
