For present physical status at DeKalb County Jail, call Corrections or the Sheriff's nonemergency line. Send requests for a booking sheet, release sheet, booking photograph, or jail movement record to Sheriff Records. Court orders and criminal dispositions belong to the Circuit Clerk. County probation and pretrial reporting are handled by Court Services, while state-prison custody and parole or mandatory supervised release belong to IDOC. Federal custody uses BOP, and ICE's locator covers current immigration detention rather than a historical release file.
