Boone County Released Inmates is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that owns the record for those services.


Find the Correct Records Office

Boone County custody information is split among local, state, court, and notification systems. Use the office that controls the fact being checked. Contact details and hours can change, so verify them on the linked official page before visiting or mailing a request.

IDOC inmate search

For release and supervision questions beyond those offices, the following routes complete the local contact chain.

  • The home page covers a released person's complete search and records-request path.
  • Parole / Probation distinguishes court supervision from IDOC parole or mandatory supervised release.
  • Released Last 24 Hours explains the local fallback because Boone publishes no same-day release feed.
  • An Inmate Release Date and VINELink Release Check serve different date and alert needs.
  • Illinois VINE support is available at 1-866-566-8439, 24 hours a day, through Illinois VINE.
  • The Illinois Prisoner Review Board handles certain parole, revocation, condition, and final-discharge records at 217-782-7273, prb.operations@illinois.gov, or prb.foia@illinois.gov for FOIA.
  • Neutral expungement help is available from the OSAD expungement unit at 866-787-1776 or Expungement@osad.state.il.us.

Facility pages in the footer cover Boone County Correctional Facility, local municipal holding, IDOC institutions, and federal or immigration custody. A sentenced state prisoner belongs in the IDOC locator. A federal or immigration detainee must be checked through BOP, the federal docket, USMS channels, or ICE as the custody type requires.
