The roster sits on the Sheriff's corrections pages and covers the Adult Justice Center. Try it this way:

1. Tap the Inmate Roster Search link. Give it a few seconds, since the list builds itself after the page opens.
2. Enter the surname. If dozens come up, add the first name too.
3. Match the right person by age or date of birth.
4. Read the booking entry and the bond line. When no bond appears, a judge may still be weighing it.
5. Note the booking number for later phone calls and deposits.

A second link on that Sheriff page opens a detailed view meant for authorized personnel, so skip it. Stuck? Phone 330-675-2508.

A blank search has several possible explanations. Check each one:

• Still in intake. Prints, a photo and a health screening happen first. That part can run for hours.
• Already home. Some people leave on a ticket. Others post bond or get let go by a judge on a promise to return.
• Typed differently. Spelling counts. Try shorter first names, nicknames or a maiden name.
• Across the line. Officers from a neighboring county take people to their own county jail.
• Held by another agency. State and federal holds are covered further down.
• A minor. Under-18s are kept apart from adults.

Booking staff can clear it up fast at 330-675-2508.

Yes, for adults. They all go to the Adult Justice Center at 150 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2508. The front lobby opens weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

• Purpose: it is the adult jail for the whole county. Some people there wait on bond or trial. Others serve a local sentence or a probation violation. Some wait for a ride to state prison.
• Arresting agencies: deputies, state troopers and town police all book people here. Warren's city police use it under a contract, and the city pays the county for each stay.
• Teens: anyone younger than 18 goes to the youth detention center instead (question 20).

Was the arrest outside the county? Then the jail in that county has them. Ask the High Street jail whether a transfer is coming.

A booking photo is taken during intake, and that picture is what most people call a mugshot. Whether the Sheriff will release one is a records question. Call 330-675-2508 and ask for Records.

Most jail records are public in Ohio under R.C. 149.43. A second law, R.C. 2927.22, makes it illegal for a mugshot website to demand payment for removing a photo. That crime is graded as a first-degree misdemeanor. A victim may also sue, asking for at least $10,000.

• For a photo ICE took, use ICE's online records request.
• Mugshots from federal arrests stay private, though the U.S. Marshals Service may publish one during a manhunt for a fugitive.

Ohio VINE comes from the Attorney General and is free to use. Type a name to check custody status and location. Leave a phone number or email address, and the system sends word when the person is freed or transferred, escapes, or dies in custody. It tracks people held in Ohio county jails, state prisons run by ODRC, and youth centers run by DYS.

• Online: the VINELink website
• Phone line, staffed around the clock: 800-770-0192

A VINE notice can lag behind real events. Double-check with the jail at 330-675-2508.

Judges in Ohio follow R.C. 2937.011, which asks for the mildest set of conditions that still gets a defendant to every hearing and guards public safety. Locally it works out like this:

• Lower-level charges: every court keeps a misdemeanor bail schedule. A schedule amount can free someone before they ever see a judge.
• Felonies: the amount comes from a judge or magistrate, not a chart. If they remain in jail, a hearing on bail must follow within two court days of the arrest.
• Paying at the High Street jail: bring a money order, payable to the court, for a 10 percent bond. The other choice is a surety bond through a licensed bondsman. Either way there is a $25 bond fee.
• What the jail refuses: cash, personal checks and credit cards. Only a judge can grant a personal bond.
• Paying at court: the Traffic and Criminal Division of the Warren Municipal Court clerk, 141 South Street SE, Warren, OH 44483, 330-841-2525, handles bail for every offense from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays.

Pay a 10 percent deposit and follow every condition, and nine-tenths of that money comes back when the case ends. Each bondsman needs a state insurance license, and the fee must match the rate approved by Ohio regulators. Ohio Department of Insurance staff answer questions about an agent at 800-686-1526. Our local bail rundown goes deeper, and the Ohio bail laws summary covers the statutes.

The roster offers a first glance. For the official charge, phone the clerk at whichever court filed the case. Clerks search by legal name and birthday, so give both.

• Arrests inside Warren city limits: the Warren Municipal Court clerk, 141 South Street SE, Warren, OH 44483, 330-841-2525.
• Indicted felony cases in Common Pleas: the Clerk of Courts, 161 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2557.
• Questions on how felony charges are chosen: the county Prosecuting Attorney, 160 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2426.

Arrests in Niles, Girard, Newton Falls or the townships open in a different local court. Question 16 lists each one.

Yes. Public defense here comes from the state under a county contract. The Warren branch of the Ohio Public Defender sits at 108 Main Avenue SW, Suite 600, Warren, OH 44481, 330-367-5160. Its lawyers cover the four municipal courts, both county court districts, Common Pleas and juvenile court.

1. On the first court date, your family member tells the judge money is too tight for a lawyer.
2. A sworn money form follows, covering wages, bills and assets.
3. If the court finds they qualify, a public defender is assigned.

Ohio allows a modest fee for this, though a judge may drop it. Anyone hiring a private attorney should move quickly.

Visits at the Adult Justice Center happen on video screens. The schedule and the rules are linked from the Sheriff's Visitation Requirements page. Before your first session, phone 330-675-2508 and find out:

• how to register and how early to reserve a slot,
• if sessions run from home, from the lobby, or both,
• which photo ID and dress rules apply,
• if kids can be on screen with you.

Our visiting tips help first-time visitors get ready.

Deposits go through Access Corrections, the vendor named on the Sheriff's page. Pick one of these:

• the accesscorrections.com website,
• the free Access Corrections phone app,
• a walk-up kiosk, with more than 800 locations.

Payment trouble? Access Corrections answers at 636-888-7004. Keep the booking number close. Funds cover commissary, hygiene supplies and phone time. A deposit is never bail. Our money deposit tips and commissary rundown go further.

People inside use tablets. Scanned letters show up there in the Facility Messages app. For quick notes, the Sheriff's page points families to TextBehind digital messaging.

For phone calls, contact the jail at 330-675-2508 and ask how calls are billed and the rate. Assume calls and messages are monitored, apart from attorney contact. Never discuss the case. Learn more on our phone call page and our texting and email page.

Personal letters don't go to High Street. They are mailed to a scanning center in Maryland, and the pages then appear on the tablet. Address the envelope this way:

• First line: their full name plus their jail ID
• Second line: Trumbull County Adult Justice Center, Ohio (no short forms for the facility or the state)
• Third line: P.O. Box 247, Phoenix, MD 21131

Your own full name and address must appear as the sender. A San Antonio, Texas box used in the past is retired. Checks, money orders and attorney mail have separate rules and should never be sent to Phoenix. Ask the jail at 330-675-2508 where those go. Our mail tips cover the basics.

Items taken during booking go into storage and stay there until the person leaves. Before driving over to collect anything, call 330-675-2508 and check:

• whether you need the person's signature to carry items out,
• which ID the jail wants,
• the best hour to arrive.

The jail lobby at 150 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, keeps weekday hours, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Intake includes a medical and mental health screening. Still, if you know about a condition, warn the medical team quickly. Call 330-675-2508 and ask for Medical.

• List every prescription, with the dose.
• Share how to reach their regular doctor.
• Ask your family member to request care from inside as well.

Fear of self-harm should be stated clearly on that call. Call 911 for any emergency that threatens life.

Warrants get served by the Sheriff's deputies all over the county. City police officers carry them out in their own towns. To ask about a possible warrant, dial the Sheriff's Office at 330-675-2508 and ask for the warrants desk. To see which court case a warrant comes from, call that court's clerk: Warren Municipal Court at 330-841-2525, or the Common Pleas Clerk of Courts at 330-675-2557 for felonies. Give the full legal name and birthday. To clear it, speak to a defense attorney first. With that advice, phone the court named on the warrant to set a fresh date or arrange a surrender. The Common Pleas clerk's office is located at 161 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481.

The ticket, summons or bond slip names the court, so call that clerk. Not sure which court? Ask the jail. Here are the local courts:

• Warren Municipal Court, 141 South Street SE, Warren, OH 44483, 330-841-2525
• Niles Municipal Court, 15 East State Street, Niles, OH 44446, 330-652-5863
• Girard Municipal Court, 100 North Market Street, Girard, OH 44420, criminal clerk 330-545-0069
• Newton Falls Municipal Court, 19 North Canal Street, Newton Falls, OH 44444, 330-872-0232
• County Court, Central District, 180 North Mecca Street, Cortland, OH 44410, 330-675-2280
• County Court, Eastern District, 7130 Brookwood Drive, Brookfield, OH 44403, 330-675-7900
• Hubbard Mayor's Court, 220 West Liberty Street, Hubbard, OH 44425, 330-534-3090
• Common Pleas felony cases: Clerk of Courts, 161 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2557

Our court walkthrough explains each stage of a case.

A federal case out of Warren or anywhere else in the county lands in Youngstown, at the federal courthouse named for Thomas D. Lambros, 125 Market Street, Youngstown, OH 44503, 330-884-7400. That courthouse serves the Youngstown division of Ohio's Northern District.

1. At an early hearing, a magistrate judge rules on detention. That ruling settles whether trial is awaited behind bars or at home under court rules (18 U.S.C. 3142).
2. The U.S. Marshals keep federal detainees before trial, often at a local jail paid to house them. You can reach the Youngstown Marshals, Room 102 in that building, at 330-746-0394. The Marshals office knows which facility has the person.
3. The Federal Public Defender represents people in federal court who can't pay. Its office is at 10 East Commerce Street, Suite 230, Youngstown, OH 44503, 330-746-6399.
4. After sentencing, a name or register number on the BOP inmate locator shows where they are.

When immigration agents want someone at High Street, the steps usually run as follows:

1. ICE opens the process by filing Form I-247A with jail staff. That form is the detainer.
2. Federal rule 8 CFR 287.7(d) lets the jail keep them up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released, giving ICE time to arrive.
3. ICE's Detroit Field Office handles Ohio: 985 Michigan Avenue, Suite 207, Detroit, MI 48226, 313-771-6601. Its closest Ohio office is at 925 Keynote Circle, Brooklyn Heights, OH 44131, 216-749-9200.
4. Use the ICE Online Detainee Locator. The A-number works best. If it is unknown, the locator also takes a full name, as long as you choose the person's home country from its list.

No Ohio statute changes how detainers work at county jails. Families with questions about local work with ICE can call the Sheriff's Office at 330-675-2508.

Transport is not instant. The person can remain at the Adult Justice Center for a while first. Next, Ohio's prison system, ODRC, moves them to a reception center. There they are assessed and then placed in a prison that fits.

• Use the ODRC offender search and enter a name.
• JE's Ohio prisons guide explains visits and letters for each prison.
• Before the move, the jail at 330-675-2508 can confirm whether transport is scheduled.

No one under 18 is housed at High Street. Youths kept in custody go to a juvenile detention center the county runs. It is overseen by the Trumbull County Family Court, 220 Main Avenue SW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2600.

• Juv.R. 7 sets a fast clock for the detention hearing: 72 hours at most, or the next court day if it comes earlier.
• Without a detention order, the youth is sent home to a parent.
• The Ohio Public Defender's Warren branch represents young people too. Reach it at 330-367-5160.

Phone the court that day to ask when the hearing starts.

Booking staff can name the arresting agency. These departments and patrols bring people to the High Street jail:

• Sheriff's Office, 150 High Street NW, Warren, OH 44481, 330-675-2508. Deputies answer calls across the county.
• Warren Police Department: Warren city.
• Niles Police Department: Niles city.
• Girard Police Department: Girard city.
• Howland Township Police Department: Howland Township.
• Liberty Township Police Department: Liberty Township.
• Ohio State Highway Patrol: troopers on state routes and interstates. Use the patrol's local post finder to pick the post serving this county.

Smaller cities, villages and townships may run their own departments as well. When you call the jail, ask for the arresting agency's phone number.
