Official Records Contact

For current jail status or a sheriff-held arrest record, begin with the Massac County Sheriff’s Office. The official contact address is 515 Market Street, Metropolis, Illinois 62960, and the non-emergency or records starting number is (618) 524-2912. The county FOIA notice lists Sheriff Chad Kaylor at ckaylor@massacsheriffsdept.com for sheriff records. It does not publish records-office hours, so call before an in-person visit.

Match the request to the office and custody stage:

  • For a booking sheet, arrest report, or releasable photograph, use the county guide and send a focused written request to the sheriff.
  • For a person just arrested, check the official sheriff app route, then call the sheriff if the app has not updated.
  • For a multi-day police or sheriff report, use Arrest Reports and confirm any detail with the issuing agency.
  • For custody changes or release alerts, use the official Illinois VINE service where Massac County is available.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Illinois Department of Corrections Individual in Custody Search.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the federal Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator that matches the case.
  • For a filed charge, hearing, or outcome, search Judici and contact the Massac County Circuit Clerk.
