LaSalle County, IL Jail Inmate Search & Roster

How to Search the Official LaSalle County Jail Roster

1. Open the official iSOMS portal. Use LaSalle County’s jail portal.
2. Choose the record that matches your question. Select Jail for the current roster, Jail Intake/Release (last 24 hours) for very recent activity, or Jail Intake/Release (last 72 hours) for a wider recent-booking window.
3. Complete the human verification screen if it appears. The jail portion of the portal may require this check before roster records are displayed.
4. Check the identity carefully. Compare the full name and any other identifying or booking information shown before assuming you have the correct person.
5. Use the court system for the criminal case. A jail roster is a custody record. Filed charges, court dates, docket activity and final case results belong in the Circuit Clerk’s records.
6. Call the jail if the result is unclear. LaSalle County Jail lists 815-434-8383 for jail information.

Which LaSalle County Search Should You Use?

If You Cannot Find the Person

A missing roster result does not always mean the arrest did not happen. Work through these checks before relying on a negative result:

• Check the spelling, middle name, suffix and date of birth if known.
• Use the 24-hour and 72-hour intake/release views, not only the current roster.
• Allow time for booking after a recent arrest.
• The person may already have been released after a court hearing.
• The arresting agency may have transferred the person to another jurisdiction.
• If the person was sentenced to Illinois state custody, use the Illinois Department of Corrections search.
• Juvenile, sealed or otherwise restricted information may not appear publicly.

Mail an Inmate

Use this mailing format:

Regular letters and cards are scanned into the jail system for the inmate to view electronically. The county says the original mail is destroyed after processing, so do not send irreplaceable items.

• Written or typed letters are permitted subject to jail rules.

Do not mail money or checks to the jail. The county states that checks are not accepted and money sent through the mail will be returned.

Inmate Phone Calls, Messaging and Remote Visits

LaSalle County currently publishes the following rates and contact options. Check the provider before paying because vendor pricing can change.

Check Charges, Court Dates and Case Records

The jail roster and court docket answer different questions. Once you identify the correct person, use the LaSalle County Circuit Clerk for the criminal case.

1. Open the LaSalle County Online Court Records.
2. Search the available case information using the person’s correct name or known case details.
3. Confirm the case is a LaSalle County case before relying on it.
4. Review available docket information, court dates and case activity.
5. If online information is insufficient, contact the Traffic/Criminal Division at 815-434-8271.

The Circuit Clerk also provides public viewing terminals for record searches. Court records are a better source than a jail roster when you need filed charges, hearings, orders or the later disposition of a case.

Illinois Pretrial Release: Do Not Rely on Old Cash-Bail Instructions

Some older LaSalle County pages and third-party jail guides still contain pre-2023 bond language. For a current case, use the court docket and current court orders to determine whether the person was released, detained or given conditions of pretrial release.

A roster entry can change after a hearing, so court information is the better source when the question is why is the person still detained? or what conditions were ordered?

Request an Older Jail Record

If the live roster does not contain the record you need, LaSalle County provides a jail FOIA process.

The county’s FOIA form asks requesters to be as specific as possible. Providing the person’s correct name plus the booking date, case number or date range can reduce delays.

Open the official LaSalle County Jail FOIA form.

Programs and Medical Recovery Support

LaSalle County Jail publishes information about its Medication-Assisted Recovery program for incarcerated people with opioid or alcohol use disorders. The program combines approved medication with counseling, behavioral services and recovery support. For questions about eligibility, current availability or an individual’s medical needs, contact the jail directly rather than relying on public roster information.

Use Jail Information Carefully

A roster, arrest entry, warrant or criminal charge is not proof of guilt. Custody information can also change quickly after a hearing, release, transfer or sentencing. For an important legal, employment, housing or personal decision, confirm the identity and use the agency or court that owns the underlying record.

Information checked against LaSalle County Sheriff’s Office, LaSalle County Jail, LaSalle County Circuit Clerk, Illinois Department of Corrections and Illinois court resources. Custody, visitation, provider rates and release information can change; use the linked official source for the final time-sensitive step.
