This is a private website, not the Johnson County Sheriff's Office or another government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is jailed, arrange release, retrieve a booking record, accept a records request, or correct an agency file.


Where to Direct Your Question

For current local custody, a booking number, or the proper records custodian, contact the Johnson County Sheriff / Johnson County Jail at 618-658-8264. The published location is 103 N 6th Street, P.O. Box 546, Vienna, IL 62995. No separate records line, FOIA officer, or sheriff/jail office hours were published, so call first and ask for the current submission method and fee.

  • Filed court case or final disposition: Johnson County Circuit Clerk, 105 N 6th Street, P.O. Box 517, Vienna, IL 62995; 618-658-4751; circuitclerk@johnsoncountyilgov.us.
  • State prison custody: use the IDOC Individual in Custody Search.
  • Custody alerts: use Illinois VINELink, understanding that a missing match does not prove a person was never arrested.
  • Federal custody: use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator. Immigration detention uses the separate DHS/VINE system.
  • Booking record or photograph: ask the sheriff or arresting agency for its current FOIA custodian, then submit a narrow written request. Illinois FOIA is codified at 5 ILCS 140.

Do not send money or travel based solely on a private listing. Confirm the address, custody state, payment instructions, and visiting rules with the responsible office.
