This is a private reference site, not a Jefferson County government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, schedule jail services, or pull official booking records. Use the official office listed below for current custody, release, bond, or records questions.
Where to Look First
Official Jefferson County custody and records questions start with the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and Jail Division. The Sheriff's Office is located at 411 S. Center Avenue, Jefferson, WI 53549. The main Sheriff's Office number is 920-674-7310. The Jail Division number is 920-674-8620, and Huber Division questions go to 920-674-7333. Open-records questions go to 920-674-7329, but the county states that records cannot be requested by phone.
For sheriff records, send a detailed request to openrecords@jeffersoncountywi.gov or mail or drop it off to Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Attention: Open Records, 411 South Center Ave., Jefferson, WI 53549. Records office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, except holidays. Include names, dates, times, locations, incident type, and officer names if known.
- For someone in Jefferson County Jail, start with jail inmate records and the county-linked VINELink or JESO app path.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots to check what is public and when an open-records request may be needed.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and Wisconsin Circuit Court Access.
- For a specific local detention page, use the Jefferson County Jail facility link in the footer.
- For a sentenced Wisconsin prisoner, use the Wisconsin Department of Corrections Offender Locator, not the county jail path.
- For federal prison or immigration detention, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
