This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether anyone is in custody, release a person, post bond, or pull official booking records. For any of those, you need to contact the right government office directly using the details below.


Looking for an Inmate or a Record?

Almost every question about a person in custody is answered fastest by the office that actually holds the record. For Kankakee County jail and inmate questions, that office is the Sheriff's Corrections Division.
