The correct contact depends on the person's custody stage and the record needed:
- For a booking photograph, jail file, or older arrest record, follow the county records-request path and contact the Sheriff's Records Division.
- For a newly booked person, use the Daily Arrest Report, then call the jail if the time-sensitive status is unclear.
- For several booking dates, consult the Weekly Arrest Log instructions or ask Records for a historical file.
- For release or transfer alerts, use the VINELink Inmate Check, subject to its local coverage limits.
- For a court outcome, search MiCOURT or request the official file from the Berrien County Trial Court.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Michigan Department of Corrections OTIS search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the federal Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator instead of the county roster.
