This is a private reference website, not a Lake County office. We cannot check custody, confirm release, retrieve a record, change a jail file, or contact a person in custody. Use the official route below for the question you need answered.
Where to Ask in Lake County
Current county-jail custody: Contact Lake County Corrections at (231) 745-6201, 1153 Michigan Avenue, Baldwin, MI 49304. The county has no verified public live roster, so Corrections is the direct official route.
Sheriff’s Office questions: Lake County Sheriff’s Office, 1153 Michigan Avenue, Baldwin, MI 49304, (231) 745-2712. Administrative hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Use 911 for an emergency.
Booking records and photographs: Submit a focused request through the Lake County FOIA request page. FOIA Coordinator Tobi G. Lake is at 800 Tenth Street, Suite 100, Baldwin, MI 49304; telephone (231) 745-6231; email lakecountyadministrator@co.lake.mi.us; hours Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Court outcome: Use MiCOURT Case Search or contact Lake County Trial Court. A docket is not a live jail roster, but it may show arraignment, bond, dismissal, plea, or sentence.
State custody: Use MDOC OTIS for qualifying state prisoners, parolees, and probationers. It does not cover an ordinary Lake County jail-only booking. For qualifying notifications, test VINELink; Lake County participation has not been independently confirmed.
