This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, schedule visitation, or retrieve official booking records. Use the official contacts below for those tasks.
Where to Ask
For a current adult custody question in Vermilion County, start with the Vermilion County Sheriff's Department and jail. The official sheriff contact block lists Vermilion County Sheriff, 2 E. South Street, Danville, IL 61832, phone 217-442-4080. The research did not locate a separate public jail information line or posted lobby hours, so call that number before visiting for custody, bond, visitation, or records-counter instructions.
Use the record holder that matches the question. County FOIA requests may be sent to foia@vercounty.org. Vermilion County Circuit Clerk record-search requests may be sent to allrecordrequest@vercounty.org after a court case exists. Prosecutor-file questions can involve the Vermilion County State's Attorney, Jacqueline Lacy, when the issue concerns charging decisions, prosecution records, or victim services rather than jail custody. That office is at Vermilion County Courthouse, 7 N. Vermilion St., Ste. 201, Danville, IL 61832, phone 217-554-7750, email statesattorney@vercounty.org.
- For a person in Vermilion County Jail, begin with the sheriff and the jail inmate records page.

- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP inmate locator, U.S. Marshals or federal court routes, or ICE ODLS.
