Miami County Jail Roster
The official Miami County jail roster path is INjail Public Access, the Indiana County Jail Public Portal. The portal has search and county navigation for current inmates, and the county route can display current county inmates when the public calls succeed. It is a public search interface, but reCAPTCHA protects result and profile calls. The research did not bypass those controls and did not harvest a live person profile.
The Miami County Sheriff's Office operates the Miami County Detention Facility, so current local custody questions should start with INjail and the jail administrative line. Sentenced prisoners moved to IDOC, federal prisoners, ICE detainees, and court-charge questions belong in other systems. That distinction prevents a common search error: assuming one roster covers every person who was arrested in Miami County.
The Indiana County Jail Public Portal is the main online access point for Miami County inmate records.
Use the online roster first for current custody, then use the Miami County jail phone line or APRA process if the portal is unavailable or the record is not posted.
Search Miami County Inmates
A Miami County inmate record search works best with a last name and one narrowing fact, such as first name, birth date, booking date range, or county. The statewide search can return records from other Indiana counties, so county filtering matters. If the person was just arrested, the record may not appear until intake, identity checks, data entry, and portal updates are complete.
- Open INjail Public Access and choose Search or browse the county map/list.
- Enter a last name and add first name or birth date if known.
- Use the County field to narrow the search to Miami County when available.
- Use Booked Between or Released Between when the date is known.
- Review rows by name, age, race, sex, booked-on date, released-on date, and county.
- Use View to open the public detail panel if the portal returns a result.
- If no result appears, call the jail or check IDOC, MyCase, BOP, ICE, or SAVIN based on the custody question.
Miami County Roster Fields
The INjail form accepts several fields that help separate a Miami County inmate record from a statewide false match. The portal raises an error if no search value is entered. Its interface also includes calendar controls and date presets, which are useful when the reader knows an arrest or release window but not the exact booking date.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Last Name | Text | Optional, but one value required | Maximum length 50; alpha-only entry shown in the application bundle |
| First Name | Text | Optional | Use with last name to narrow similar names |
| Birth Date | Date field | Optional | Placeholder is m/d/yyyy |
| County | Dropdown | Optional | Choose Miami County when the county list is available |
| Booked Between | Date range | Optional | Preset ranges include today, last 7 days, last 30 days, this month, and last month |
| Released Between | Date range | Optional | Useful for inmates who have already left custody |
Miami County Inmate Profile
Search results can show enough information to identify a likely match before opening the profile. The official INjail bundle shows result columns for name, age, race, sex, booked-on date, released-on date, and county in statewide view. The detail panel is broader and includes demographics, booking data, arrest data, holds, cases, and a public photo component when a photo is available and allowed.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name | The person's displayed name in the result row or profile heading. |
| INjail ID | The portal identifier tied to the public entry. |
| Age, race, ethnicity, sex | Demographic data used to distinguish similar names. |
| Skin tone, eye color, hair color, height, weight | Physical descriptor fields shown in the profile structure. |
| Booking number and booked-on date | The jail intake event and date tied to the roster record. |
| Arrest date, arresting agency, arresting officer | Arrest-side information when supplied by the agency. |
| Released On | Release date, or a placeholder when no release date is posted. |
| Holds and cases | Separate sections for custody holds and case-related information. |
| Mugshot/photo | A public-inmate-photo component exists, but Miami County photo availability must be checked record by record. |
Missing Miami County Jail Records
A missing Miami County jail record does not prove release. The person may still be in intake, booked under a different spelling, transferred to another county, held for IDOC, moved into federal or ICE custody, or released before the search. Some records may also be restricted because of juvenile status, confidentiality, sealing, expungement, law-enforcement discretion, or an active investigation.
Use a tiered fallback. Check spelling and date of birth first. Try the released-date fields. Call the Miami County Administrative Office / Jail at 765-472-1322 during business hours for local custody routing, or Central Dispatch at 765-473-5474 when officer dispatch is needed. For a document rather than same-day custody, ask how to submit an APRA request to the records custodian.
Note: Dispatch is not a records desk and should not be used for routine document requests.
Miami County Jail Facilities
Miami County inmate records split by custody type. The sheriff-run detention facility is the local jail for current bookings. Miami Correctional Facility is a state prison in Bunker Hill and uses IDOC lookup rules. The same physical prison also has an ICE detention note in 2026 sources, which makes ICE ODLS relevant for immigration custody questions.

Miami County Booking Process
Miami County did not publish a detailed jail intake script, but the roster fields point to the practical sequence. After arrest by deputies, Peru Police, another local agency, or on a warrant, a person may be transported to the Miami County Detention Facility unless medical care or another custody agency comes first. Intake commonly includes identity checks, warrant review, property inventory, safety screening, medical screening, fingerprints, a booking photo when required, and creation of a booking record.
After booking, the record may appear in INjail if it is eligible for public display. The official pages do not state a roster refresh interval. Court events follow separately. The Miami County Prosecutor decides what formal charges to file, and the court record appears through MyCase when public and available. Jail release is not the same thing as dismissal of a case.
Miami County Bond and Holds
The Miami County Detention Facility page includes a remote bond payment prompt through GovPay for debit or credit card payment. The research did not locate a local fee schedule, transaction surcharge, bond window hours, refund rule, bondsman list, or in-person accepted-payment list. Before paying, confirm the person is still in custody and that no hold blocks release.
- Cash bond
- A court-set amount paid directly through an authorized local or remote route.
- Surety bond
- A licensed bail agent posts bond for a fee and assumes appearance obligations.
- Personal recognizance
- Release based on a promise to appear and court conditions rather than full cash payment.
- No-bond hold
- A status where payment alone will not release the person.
- Detainer
- A request or notice from another agency asking the jail to hold or notify before release.
Miami County Jail Visitation
The official Miami County jail visitation page sets a local schedule and several specific visitor rules. Each inmate is eligible for one 20-minute visit per week. Visitors over 18 need valid photo ID and must be on the inmate's visitor list. Visitors under 18 must be with an adult. A person who served time in the Miami County jail in the last 60 days cannot visit unless visiting a parent, sibling, spouse, or child.
Use the schedule below as the county-published baseline, then call the jail if a holiday, lockdown, discipline issue, or emergency could affect a visit.
| Day | Official Availability | Key Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | Visit must start before 8 p.m. |
| Monday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | One 20-minute visit per inmate per week |
| Tuesday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | Valid photo ID required for visitors over 18 |
| Wednesday | No visitation | No public visit window listed |
| Thursday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | Visitor must be on inmate's list |
| Friday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | Under-18 visitors must be with an adult |
| Saturday | 8 a.m.-8:30 p.m. | Misconduct can revoke visits indefinitely |
Request Miami County Jail Records
Use a records request when the public roster does not provide the needed document. Examples include an older booking record, a booking photo not visible online, jail paperwork, or an incident-related record that the sheriff can lawfully release. No sheriff APRA form was found on the official county site during research, so the practical route is to contact the sheriff/jail office and ask for the records custodian or public-records process.

Miami County State and Federal Records
When a Miami County inmate record cannot be found in the jail roster, check the custody system that fits the case. IDOC covers sentenced prisoners, including people at Miami Correctional Facility. Indiana SAVIN supports custody and release notification. BOP covers federal sentenced inmates from 1982 to present. ICE ODLS covers immigration detainee location and is especially relevant because Miami Correctional Facility appears in 2026 ICE detention sources.
| System | Use It For | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| IDOC locator | Sentenced Indiana prisoners and facility assignment | Does not cover pretrial county jail custody |
| Indiana SAVIN | Custody status and notification registration | Not a full jail profile replacement |
| BOP locator | Federal inmates by number or name | Does not cover county jail, IDOC, or ICE-only custody |
| ICE ODLS | Immigration detainee location | Requires JavaScript and exact identifying data |
| MyCase | Court records after a jail arrest | Not a complete criminal-history search |
Miami County Inmate Contact
Miami County's official jail visitation page points to Access Corrections for commissary and InmateSales.com for phone, chirping, and visitation services. The county page also links to a mail directive for incoming and outgoing mail, but the directive text was not captured during research. Use the jail address and confirm the required inmate name, booking number, and mail restrictions before sending anything.
| Service | Official Channel | Research Note |
|---|---|---|
| Commissary | Access Corrections | Listed on the county jail visitation page |
| Phone, chirping, visitation | InmateSales.com | Listed as the phone/chirping/visitation website |
| Remote bond payment | GovPay link from detention page | County says debit/credit remote bond payment may be available |
Note: Confirm custody and facility rules before sending money, scheduling a visit, or mailing a package.
