Carroll County Inmate Population
Carroll County holds its jail population in Delphi, a small county seat in north-central Indiana. Searching the Carroll County inmate population is possible through the Indiana VINE system and the Indiana County Jail Public Portal, both of which are free to use and available online at any hour. This page explains how to run a search, how to contact the sheriff's office for official records, and which tools to use when online results are incomplete.
Carroll County Quick Facts
Carroll County Sheriff's Office
The Carroll County Sheriff's Office is located on West Main Street in Delphi. Sheriff Tony McGreevy oversees the jail and all custody operations. The office does not currently maintain a standalone public online inmate search portal, so direct contact or statewide online tools are the main search options.
| Address | 310 W Main St, Delphi, IN 46923 |
|---|---|
| Phone | (574) 564-2411 |
| Fax | (574) 564-2608 |
Calling the main number at (574) 564-2411 is often the most reliable way to confirm whether someone is in custody. Staff can give you the booking date, charges on file, and bond status in most cases. If you need a written record, submit a formal request under the Indiana Access to Public Records Act by mail or in person at the office.
Search Carroll County Inmate Population
Carroll County participates in the Indiana County Jail Public Portal, which is one of the first places to check for an online roster search. The portal pulls data from participating county jails across Indiana and lets you search by name. Coverage for smaller counties can vary, so if results are absent, use the VINE system as a backup.
The Indiana SAVIN offender search is the statewide VINE-powered tool. Search by the person's full name to see whether they appear in county or state custody anywhere in Indiana. VINE updates from the jail's booking system regularly, so results tend to reflect current status accurately within a short window of any change.
If neither portal returns results, call (574) 564-2411. The most common reasons for missing results are: the person was released before the roster updated, the name was entered differently at booking, or the person was transferred to a state or federal facility not covered by the county jail portal. The IDOC Offender Locator at offenderlocator.idoc.in.gov covers state prisons if you need to follow up there.
Indiana SAVIN and Statewide Inmate Search
Indiana SAVIN is the central hub for statewide inmate population data. It runs on the VINE platform and covers all 92 Indiana counties including Carroll. You can search at indianasavin.in.gov without creating an account. The national VINELink Indiana portal is another interface to the same data.
One of VINE's more useful features is automated custody notifications. After you locate someone in the system, you can register to be notified whenever their status changes. Notifications go out by phone, text, or email depending on your preference. This works for county jails and state prisons alike. The service is free and does not require a subscription.
The Indiana Sheriffs' Association also maintains resources that can help if you need to identify the right county contact or understand how records are managed across different county jail systems in the state.
Inmate Records in Carroll County
Carroll County jail records are subject to the Indiana Access to Public Records Act. Under this law, anyone can request booking records, charge information, and custody status from the sheriff's office. The state administrative rule 210 IAC 3-1-6 sets minimum standards for how county jails must keep and disclose these records.
Standard public information from jail records includes the person's name, booking date, charges, bond status, and the general unit or location where they are held within the facility. Information that is protected and not released includes medical data, records from ongoing investigations, and victim contact information. For case outcome data such as conviction records, contact the Carroll Circuit Court clerk instead.
To make a formal records request, write to the Carroll County Sheriff at 310 W Main St, Delphi, IN 46923. The agency must respond within seven business days under APRA. Simple custody confirmations can often be handled faster by phone at (574) 564-2411.
