Where to Ask in Moultrie County

For current county custody or a booking-record request, start with the Moultrie County Sheriff’s Department. No published records-unit hours, dedicated public FOIA form, or current designated FOIA officer was found in the reviewed sources. Call before visiting or mailing a request to confirm the right contact and current availability.

Choose the route that matches the kind of information and custody status you need.

• For an available booking photograph or arrest record, use the request steps on the home page and identify the person, arrest date, and record sought.
• For an uncertain warrant or court status, call the sheriff and review the Judici Moultrie court docket. A docket entry is not a live warrant confirmation. The Moultrie County Circuit Clerk is at 10 South Main Street, Suite 7, Sullivan, Illinois 61951; its listed phone is (217) 728-4622, and its posted hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
• For a same-day arrest, check 24 Hour Arrests; for a broader period, use the Arrest Log. Neither page is an official county feed.
• For custody or release notifications, try VINELink Check and call the jail when a timely answer is essential.
• For a Sullivan, Arthur, or Bethany incident, contact the arresting police agency as well as the county jail. Arthur spans Moultrie and Douglas Counties, so jurisdiction must be confirmed.
• For a person currently incarcerated or supervised by the state, use the Illinois Department of Corrections inmate search.
• For federal sentenced custody or immigration detention, use the official BOP locator or ICE detainee locator. Those systems are separate from Moultrie County Jail.
