Ionia Jail and Sheriff Contacts
The Ionia County Sheriff handles county jail information, booking and release records, and Sheriff FOIA requests. The jail information line is the quickest official contact for a recent custody change. The records office or FOIA Coordinator is the better route for a copy that documents the event.

Choose the Right Record Route
The responsible office depends on where the person was last held and what must be verified.

- For post-release supervision, use the Ionia MDOC office and the Parole / Probation page.
- For a recent county event, call Jail/Inmate Info and consult Released Last 24 Hours.
- For an estimated date or an alert, use Inmate Release Date or the VINELink Release Check.
- For one jail or prison, use the matching Ionia facility page listed in the footer.
- For an MDOC date, use the OTIS offender search, the assigned office, or the Parole Release Unit.
- For a federal prison record, use the BOP locator or BOP FOIA; for relevant immigration custody, use the ICE locator or 888-351-4024.
