Sullivan County Jail Roster Overview
Sullivan County inmate records are maintained by the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office and the Sullivan County Jail. The official jail page links to a county vendor inmate search at omsweb.public-safety-cloud.com, while the statewide INjail Public Portal gives another public path for Indiana county-jail searches. These tools serve different needs. The county link is the local jail route. INjail is useful when the county of custody is uncertain or when a user wants to browse Indiana jail data by county.
The local Sullivan County jail roster does not replace court records. A recent arrest may show in jail custody before a prosecutor files a case. If charges are filed, the court case appears through MyCase or the Sullivan County Clerk's Office. State prison custody is also separate. A person sentenced and transferred out of the Sullivan County Jail should be searched through the Indiana Department of Correction incarcerated search, not only the county jail roster.
The Sullivan County Sheriff's Office source identifies the sheriff and jail agency for local custody work.
This sheriff source connects Sullivan County inmate records to the local law-enforcement office instead of to a statewide court database.
Use the Sullivan County Inmate Roster
Start with the county jail page, because it is the local source that links to email, phone, commissary, visitation, and the vendor custody search. If the county vendor search is not available or the name does not appear, search INjail next. If the person has been sentenced to prison, use IDOC. For urgent custody or release questions, call the jail rather than relying only on a web result.
- Open the Sullivan County Jail page and use the inmate search link provided by the county.
- Search by last name first. Add first name or birth date only when the result set is too broad.
- If the county vendor search fails, use INjail and choose Sullivan County in the county field when available.
- Open the inmate profile and compare name, booking date, charges, bond, court date, and release status.
- If the person may be in state prison, search IDOC after checking the local roster.
The Sullivan County Jail source confirms the local jail address, contact number, and public inmate service links.
The jail page matters because it ties Sullivan County inmate search to the same place that handles visits, inmate email, phone deposits, and commissary questions.
Sullivan County Inmate Search Fields
INjail provides a clear field set for public county-jail searches. The Sullivan County vendor portal may display its own profile layout, but the statewide portal gives a reliable search structure for users who need a name or county-based custody lookup. Last name is the most useful first field. Birth date can help avoid false matches when the name is common.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Last Name | Text | Unspecified | Search by the incarcerated person's last name. |
| First Name | Text | Optional or unspecified | Narrows a Sullivan County inmate name search. |
| Birth Date | Date | Optional or unspecified | Helps distinguish people with similar names. |
| County | Dropdown | Optional or unspecified | Choose Sullivan or another Indiana county when browsing statewide jail records. |
| Search | Button | n/a | Submits the public jail search. |
| Counties | Navigation tab | n/a | Allows county-based browsing where available. |
The INjail Public Portal source shows the statewide field pattern for Indiana county-jail lookup.
INjail is a useful backup when a Sullivan County inmate record may be listed by jail custody rather than by a court case number.
Sullivan County Inmate Profile Fields
A public Sullivan County inmate profile may show the main booking and custody fields, but not every field is guaranteed. The research confirms expected fields such as name, booking number, booking date or time, charges, bond, mugshot if displayed, court date, and release date when applicable. Housing or pod data was not confirmed and should not be treated as promised public information.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name | Identifies the person listed in the Sullivan County inmate result. |
| Booking number | Often identifies the jail booking entry or profile. |
| Booking date/time | Shows when the person was processed into custody if available. |
| Charges | May include charge text, court, statute, or offense level. |
| Bond | Shows bond when set and may vary by charge. |
| Mugshot | May appear only if the vendor profile displays it. |
| Court date | Shows a scheduled court appearance when one has been entered. |
| Release date | Appears only if released and if the portal keeps recent releases. |
Medical, security, and internal classification flags should not be expected in a public Sullivan County jail roster profile unless an official public page displays them.
Sullivan County Jail Contact
The public jail contact channel is the Sullivan County Jail at the same Justice Drive address used by the sheriff's jail pages. The research did not identify a second local jail facility or a published capacity figure. For custody confirmation, visit approval, account approval, and release timing, contact the jail directly because third-party search results may lag behind staff records.

Booking Process in Sullivan County
After a Sullivan County arrest, the jail record and the court record may develop on different timelines. A person can appear in the jail roster before a criminal case is visible in MyCase. If the prosecutor files charges, the court case can then show hearings, bond, disposition, and other docket events. That is why a current custody search should not be read as the full criminal file.
Law-enforcement report requests also use a different channel. The sheriff's Obtaining Reports page says incident reports and CAD reports can be requested by emailing reports@sullivancounty.in.gov, while accident reports must be purchased through LexisNexis BuyCrash. The page also warns that not all incident reports are available for release.
Note: For the court charge file after an arrest, use the court case record rather than the jail custody profile.
Sullivan County Inmate Visitation
The Sullivan County Jail visitation page states that both onsite and remote visits are scheduled by the visitor through InmateSales. Visitors need a computer or internet-enabled mobile device with speaker, camera, and high-speed internet. New accounts must be approved by jail staff before visitation can occur, and accounts require correct name, address, birthday, and valid legal ID.
| Visitation item | Official detail | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Scheduling | Visitor schedules onsite and remote visits | No fixed public day-by-day schedule was posted in the research set. |
| Provider | InmateSales | Create or log in to an account before scheduling. |
| Equipment | Speaker, camera, high-speed internet | Required for remote visits. |
| Apple devices | Use the Inmate Sales app | County instructions point Apple users to the app. |
| Windows or Mac | Use Chrome browser | Desktop users should use Chrome. |
| Android | Use Chrome browser | Android mobile users should use Chrome. |
| Customer service | 866-340-7879 | Friends and family support number for InmateSales. |
The Indiana DOC incarcerated search source is a separate custody channel when a person has left Sullivan County jail for state prison.
That distinction matters because Sullivan County inmate visits are local jail visits, while IDOC custody uses a different state system.
How to Contact an Inmate
The county jail page links email to an inmate through InmateSales and also links deposits for inmate phones, Chirps, and AXXS Minis through InmateSales. The research did not locate a full public mail policy, dress code, child visitor rule, attorney visitation schedule, religious visitor policy, tablet policy, or holiday schedule. Do not assume those rules from another jail. Call the Sullivan County Jail or use the provider instructions for current costs, approval rules, and allowed products.
Sullivan County Inmate Money
The Sullivan County commissary page lists five money paths. Transaction fees apply to the kiosk, online, and phone methods. Mailed deposits must be U.S. Postal money orders in the inmate's name and sent to the jail. Checks are not accepted into the facility.
| Method | Payment | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Jail lobby kiosk | Cash or credit card | Transaction fees apply. |
| JailFunds online | Credit card | Use www.jailfunds.com; transaction fees apply. |
| Phone deposit | Credit card | Call 1-855-836-3364; transaction fees apply. |
| U.S. Postal money order | Mail to the inmate name at 77 E. Justice Dr., Sullivan, IN 47882. | |
| Personal check | Not accepted | The county page expressly says checks are not accepted. |
The Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator source is separate from Sullivan County inmate money because federal custody is not managed by the county jail.
That federal locator is only a fallback when the person is no longer in a Sullivan County or Indiana state custody system.
