Cass County Quick Facts
Cass County Sheriff's Office
The Cass County Sheriff's Office is located at Court Park in Logansport. Sheriff Edward Schroder manages the department and the county jail. The office maintains a dedicated inmate lookup tool on its website, which is the most direct way to check on someone currently in custody.
| Address | 100 Court Park, Logansport, IN 46947 |
|---|---|
| Phone | (574) 753-7800 |
| Fax | (574) 753-7762 |
| Website | casscountysheriff.com |
| Inmate Lookup | casscountysheriff.com/inmate-lookup/ |
For questions that the online portal does not answer, calling (574) 753-7800 will connect you to the office. Staff can give verbal confirmation of custody status, booking dates, and the charges currently on file. The fax line at (574) 753-7762 is available for written correspondence if needed.
Search Cass County Inmate Population Online
The Cass County Sheriff's inmate lookup at casscountysheriff.com/inmate-lookup/ is the primary tool for searching the local jail roster. The portal shows people currently in custody and includes names, booking dates, and the charges associated with each booking. Access is free and the page is available at any time.
If the person you are looking for does not appear in the direct portal, try the statewide Indiana SAVIN offender search. VINE pulls data from the county system but may include people who have been transferred to state custody or who were released recently. Running both searches covers more ground than relying on just one source.
The Indiana County Jail Public Portal is another backup option that aggregates data from multiple county jails. If you still do not find results, call the sheriff at (574) 753-7800 or check the IDOC Offender Locator if you suspect the person has been moved to a state prison.
Indiana SAVIN and Statewide Inmate Search
Indiana SAVIN at indianasavin.in.gov covers all 92 Indiana counties including Cass. It is built on the VINE platform, which provides both search and notification services. You can look up any person by name and receive real-time custody data. No account is required for a basic search.
If you want ongoing updates rather than a one-time search, VINE lets you register for automated alerts. When the person's custody status changes, the system will contact you by phone, text, or email. This is useful if you need to track someone's situation over a period of time. The VINELink Indiana portal is the national interface to the same system and works identically.
For state prison custody, the IDOC Offender Locator is the right tool. County jail and state prison records do not overlap in VINE, so a person who has been transferred from Cass County Jail to a state facility will only appear in the IDOC system. Use both tools to cover the full range of Indiana custody options.
Inmate Records in Cass County
Under Indiana's Access to Public Records Act, jail booking data is available to the public. Anyone can ask the Cass County Sheriff for records that include names, booking dates, charges, and custody status. The state administrative rule 210 IAC 3-1-6 defines the standards jails must meet when maintaining these records and sharing them on request.
Records that are not public include medical information, victim data, and materials from open investigations. For case outcomes, such as conviction records or sentencing data, contact the Cass County Circuit Court clerk. That office maintains court records separately from jail booking records. The clerk can tell you what happened after a person was charged and the case proceeded through court.
Written records requests can be sent to the Cass County Sheriff at 100 Court Park, Logansport, IN 46947. The agency must respond within seven business days under APRA. For simple status questions, the online portal or a phone call usually gets you an answer faster than a formal written request.
