Find a Boone County Booking and Complete the Correct Next Step

Use the official Boone County JailTracker to confirm current custody, then save the booking number, booking date, charges, bond, holds and case number. Those details help you avoid the wrong person, wrong court case or wrong payment account.

This guide explains what to click, how to fix an empty search, how Boone County bond and pretrial review work, how to schedule video visits, send money or mail, report a medical concern, request Sheriff records and continue after release or transfer.

Why a recent Boone County arrest may not appear

Booking is still being completed Transport, medical screening, fingerprints and data entry may occur before the public record appears.
The person was released quickly Search Indiana MyCase because the court case may remain after the person leaves jail.
The booked name is different Try a former surname, maiden name, alternate spelling or name without punctuation.
The arrest happened in another county Confirm the arresting agency and actual booking facility.
The person moved to Indiana DOC Search the state locator after sentencing or transfer.
The information is legally restricted Juvenile, confidential, sealed or otherwise protected information may not be publicly displayed.
Do not select the wrong Boone County. Search results commonly mix Boone County, Indiana with Boone counties in Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois and other states. Indiana records use the Lebanon address and Indiana MyCase.

  1. Copy the full case number from JailTracker.
  2. Open Indiana MyCase.
  3. Select the case-number search.
  4. Enter the number without adding unrelated fields.
  5. Verify Boone County and the criminal case.
  6. Review the chronological case summary.
  7. Save the next hearing date and court name.

Why a roster may show no bond or pending court review

Boone County’s published local court rules describe a pretrial risk-assessment process for some misdemeanours, Level 6 felonies, habitual traffic-violator charges and some non-violent Level 5 felonies. The same rules exclude certain failure-to-appear and probation-violation warrants from that assessment and require judicial review for violent offences and Level 1–4 felonies.

Practical meaning: “No bond,” “detain until initial hearing,” “assessment pending” and “eligible for release with conditions” are different statuses. Jail staff cannot promise how a judge will rule. Use the live court case and ask which court controls release.

Bond and release

Confirm all Boone County bond details before paying

Payment does not always mean immediate release. Another case, probation matter, warrant, intoxication hold, court order or outside-agency detainer may continue custody.

Get the required information

Call Corrections before using the credit-card service. Prepare:

  • Inmate’s full legal name.
  • Date of birth.
  • Boone County Jail inmate number.
  • Every listed charge.
  • Current bond amount.
  • AllPaid location code 6808.
  • Confirmation of other holds.

Pay by credit card through AllPaid

The Sheriff’s published instructions provide these AllPaid telephone numbers:

The official Boone County guidance lists a 9% non-refundable processing fee. Verify the displayed fee and final total before authorising payment.

Open the AllPaid payment website

Understand cash versus surety bond

The Sheriff explains that cash-bond money may be applied to fines and costs if the defendant is found or pleads guilty. Any remaining amount may be returned according to the cash-bond agreement.

Money paid to a bail-bond company for a surety bond is generally a non-refundable premium. Ask the court or a licensed Indiana lawyer about the legal effect of each option.

Copy-ready bond verification call
I am calling about [full legal name], inmate number [number] and case number [number]. Can you confirm every current bond, the total amount, the accepted payment route, the AllPaid location code and whether another case or hold would prevent release?
Bond receipt: The Sheriff’s Administration page says a replacement receipt can be requested in person with identification. Questions about returning cash-bond money require taking a copy of the receipt to the Boone County Clerk’s Office on the courthouse second floor.

Video visitation

Register and schedule a Boone County inmate visit

Boone County uses ICSolutions video visitation rather than ordinary face-to-face visits. The Sheriff’s FAQ says an inmate must generally be incarcerated for 72 hours before visitation is allowed.

Official pages currently conflict: the dedicated visitation page says three free home visits during construction, while the Corrections FAQ says one. Both describe additional visits as $12.50 for 25 minutes. Check the current free-visit balance inside ICSolutions before adding funds.
Published schedule: the Corrections FAQ states video-visitation hours are seven days a week from 8:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m. Available appointment times can still depend on inmate status, facility operations and provider availability.

Telephone calls

ICSolutions provides the inmate telephone system. Calls are subject to monitoring and recording.

An inmate may use available account funds for a direct call or place a collect call when the recipient accepts the charge.

Open ICSolutions
Digital messages and photos

The Sheriff’s Corrections page links GettingOut for secure digital messages and photographs.

Confirm that Boone County and the correct person are selected before purchasing credits.

Emergency family message

Jail staff do not pass ordinary notes or messages.

A death in the immediate family or another genuine emergency may be communicated after verification by the Sheriff’s Office.

Privacy tip: Calls, ordinary video visits and digital communications may be monitored or recorded. Avoid discussing defence strategy, witness information or other sensitive facts from a pending case.
Commissary and inmate account

Add money only after confirming the correct account and location

Official deposit routes

  • Access Corrections online deposit.
  • Telephone deposit: 866-345-1884.
  • Approved kiosk using cash or card.
  • Money order payable to the inmate.

Personal checks are not accepted.

Open Access Corrections

Verify the kiosk before driving

Two official Sheriff pages currently give different kiosk locations. The Corrections FAQ refers to the Boone County Courthouse at 201 Courthouse Square, while the dedicated Access Corrections page says the kiosk is in the Sheriff’s Office lobby.

Call 765-482-1412, option 1, and ask for the current kiosk address and access hours.

Five checks before pressing Pay

Confirm the inmate is still at Boone County Jail.
Match the complete booked name.
Match the inmate or booking number.
Confirm Boone County is selected.
Review the provider fee and total.
Confirm whether funds are for calls, messages or commissary.
Save the transaction number.
Keep the receipt until the inmate confirms credit.
After release: the Sheriff’s FAQ says remaining inmate funds are issued on a debit card. A person who did not receive the card may call Corrections between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on office days.
Postal mail and books

Address Boone County inmate mail correctly

Required inmate address

Inmate’s full name, including middle initial
C/O Boone County Jail
1905 Indianapolis Avenue
Lebanon, IN 46052

Put your complete legal name and full return address on the envelope.

Writing and publication rules

  • Write letters in black or blue pen.
  • Do not use marker, crayon, pencil or another coloured pen.
  • Mail must arrive through the US Postal Service.
  • Do not drop personal mail at the jail.
  • Soft-cover books must come directly from the publisher.
  • Magazines and periodicals are not accepted.
Mail can be returned or withheld: improperly addressed mail and unacceptable items can be returned to the sender. Incoming correspondence is inspected for contraband, while legal mail from an attorney is handled under separate rules.
Practical mail tip: photograph the completed letter and both sides of the addressed envelope before mailing. This creates a record of the inmate name, address and return-address format used.

Medical concern and property pickup

Report a health concern or collect inmate property

Medical concern

Call Corrections and provide the full name, inmate number, reported symptoms or risk and when you received the information.

Private medical information is released only through proper medical channels.

Prescription medication

Call jail medical staff at 765-483-3376 and make an appointment before bringing prescription medication.

The medication must be in the original pharmacy container with the appropriate label and remains subject to medical approval.

Property release

A currently incarcerated person must sign a property-release form. All property except the inmate’s clothing is released.

The recipient needs proper identification and should schedule pickup through Corrections.

Medical co-pay: the official Corrections FAQ currently lists a $10 sick-call co-pay but also says an inmate is not denied medical access because of inability to pay. Verify current fees directly because provider charges can change.
DOC transfer property: the official page states that property connected with an Indiana DOC transfer is held for 30 days after the person leaves the Boone County facility. Call option 1 and schedule pickup promptly.

Incident, arrest and crash records

Request a Boone County Sheriff record with enough detail

Use NextRequest for public records created or held by the Boone County Sheriff’s Office. Describe a specific incident or document rather than asking for every record connected with a person.

Prepare the record details

  • Record type: incident, arrest, case or crash report.
  • Incident date and approximate time.
  • Specific location.
  • Names of involved people.
  • Report or case number.
  • Arresting or responding agency.
  • Whether you want inspection or a copy.

Submit and keep proof

  1. Open the Sheriff’s Administration page.
  2. Choose NextRequest for public records.
  3. Create or sign into the request account if required.
  4. Describe one identifiable record.
  5. Upload supporting details only when necessary.
  6. Submit the request.
  7. Save the request or confirmation number.
Report help: call 765-483-6408 before visiting. The Sheriff’s Administration page currently lists accident and case reports at $5 when purchased at the office and asks cash customers to bring exact change.

Countywide background check

Know when a local Sheriff background check is different

A current jail roster is not a complete criminal-history report. It should not be presented as a statewide, federal or complete employment background check.

Official local service

The Sheriff’s Administration page says countywide background checks can be completed at the Sheriff’s Office Monday–Friday from 8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.

The applicant should bring photo identification and a Social Security number.

Ask what the requester actually needs

  • Boone County-only check.
  • Indiana statewide criminal history.
  • FBI or fingerprint-based report.
  • Driving record.
  • Child-care or regulated-employment check.

A local Sheriff check does not automatically satisfy every employer or licensing agency.

Official annual-report context

Why release and transfer checks matter in Boone County

The Boone County Sheriff’s 2024 annual report states that the jail processed 2,227 arrestees, released 2,242 people and completed 156 transfers to the Indiana Department of Correction. This movement explains why a person may disappear from the local roster while a court or state-custody record remains active.

2,227 arrestees processed

A recent arrest may take time to move through transport, screening and booking.

2,242 releases

A person may leave local custody while the criminal court case continues.

156 IDOC transfers

A transferred person should be searched in Indiana DOC rather than only JailTracker.

10 Boone County questions

Boone County inmate-search questions answered

How do I search for someone in Boone County Jail?

Open the official Boone County JailTracker, search the last name first, add the first name only when needed and open each plausible result. Verify the complete name, inmate number, booking date, charges, bond, holds and custody status before relying on the record.

Why is someone not appearing in Boone County JailTracker?

The arrest may be too recent, the booked name may be different, the person may have been released or transferred, or the booking may be in another county. Try a surname-only search, remove punctuation and suffixes, confirm the arresting agency and call Corrections when the status is urgent.

Is the official Boone County inmate lookup free?

Yes. Boone County JailTracker can be searched without paying an inmate-lookup fee. Separate bond, visitation, communication, commissary and record-copy services may charge their own disclosed fees.

How do I find a Boone County inmate’s court date?

Search Indiana MyCase using the exact case number from JailTracker whenever possible. If no case number appears, search the legal name, verify Boone County and compare the filing date and charge. Contact the Boone County Clerk when a needed public document is not online.

What information do I need to pay a Boone County bond online?

The Sheriff’s published instructions say to prepare the inmate’s full name, date of birth, Boone County Jail inmate number, charges, bond amount and AllPaid location code 6808. Confirm every case and outside hold with Corrections before paying.

How do I schedule a Boone County inmate visit?

Create or sign into an ICSolutions account, register for video visitation, select Boone County, enter the inmate’s last name or ID, choose an available date and time and confirm the appointment. The Corrections FAQ says an inmate generally must be incarcerated for 72 hours before visitation.

How should I address mail to Boone County Jail?

Write the inmate’s full name including middle initial, followed by C/O Boone County Jail, 1905 Indianapolis Avenue, Lebanon, IN 46052. Add the sender’s full name and return address and write the letter only in black or blue pen.

How do I add money to a Boone County inmate account?

Use Access Corrections online, call 866-345-1884, use the approved kiosk or mail an accepted money order payable to the inmate. Confirm the current kiosk location with Corrections because two official Sheriff pages currently list different locations.

How do I request a Boone County arrest or incident report?

Use the Sheriff’s NextRequest portal and identify the record with the incident date, approximate time, location, involved names and report number when known. Call 765-483-6408 for report help or use BuyCrash for an eligible crash report.

What should I do after a Boone County inmate is released or transferred?

Use Indiana VINE for available notifications, the Indiana DOC locator for a state transfer, the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator for possible federal custody and Indiana MyCase for a criminal case that continues after release.
