Fulton County Inmate Listings
The official Fulton County Jail Division page directs users to the Fulton County Sheriff's Office Mobile App for the most up-to-date inmate information. The county page says the app includes Inmate Listings, Inmate Commissary, Inmate Medical, and more. No official public web roster was found on the county site, so the app is the main local inmate listing channel confirmed by the research.
That app-only setup changes how a Fulton County inmate search should be handled. If the app does not answer the question, use the Fulton County Jail phone line, the sheriff's 24-hour lobby, Indiana SAVIN, or the Indiana Department of Correction locator depending on custody status. A person recently arrested in Fulton County may be local. A sentenced state prisoner is searched through IDOC, not the county jail app.
The app is listed as County of Fulton (Indiana) on the Apple App Store and as County of Fulton (Indiana) on Google Play. Store text describes public-safety news, crime reporting, tip submission, and other interactive features. It also warns that emergencies should not be reported through the app. For an emergency, use 911.
App caveat: The research confirms app inmate listings, but not a full public web inmate profile with mugshot, bond, pod, or release fields.
Fulton County Inmate Search Channels
Each Fulton County inmate channel answers a different custody question. The sheriff and jail answer local booking and current jail matters. IDOC covers state prison custody after a person is transferred to the Indiana Department of Correction. SAVIN is used for offender search and notification information by name, offender identification number, or case number.
| Channel | Use It For | Official Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Fulton County Jail Division | Local jail information and app-directed inmate listings | 2006 Sweetgum Road, Rochester; jail phone 574-224-5630. |
| Sheriff's Office | Custody, court security, crime investigation, and 24-hour lobby contact | Sheriff Travis Heishman; office phone 574-223-2819. |
| IDOC offender locator | Sentenced state prisoners | Separate from Fulton County Jail custody. |
| Indiana SAVIN | Custody search and notification-related information | Search by offender name, offender ID, or case number. |
| Indiana MyCase | Related public court case records | Charges, hearings, bonds, and case events when public. |
A jail booking record and a court case record are not the same file. Booking confirms custody. A court case explains charges, hearings, and disposition when the case is public.
Use Fulton County Inmate Tools
Start with the county app for local jail listing information because the jail page points there for the most current inmate details. If the person cannot be found, choose the next official channel by custody stage. For court charges after a booking, the Fulton County arrest records and court charges page explains how allegations move into filed charges.
- Install or open the County of Fulton (Indiana) sheriff app from the official app store listing.
- Use the app's inmate listing area for current Fulton County Jail information.
- Call Fulton County Jail at 574-224-5630 if the app result is unclear or urgent.
- Search IDOC if the person may be a sentenced state prisoner rather than a county jail inmate.
- Use Indiana SAVIN for custody search and notification-oriented lookup by name, ID, or case number.
- Search MyCase when the goal is to review the public criminal or infraction case tied to custody.
Fulton County Inmate Search Fields
The Fulton County app screen could not be inspected from the research file, so the local field inventory is limited to the app features the county and app stores confirmed. State tools have clearer search fields. Use IDOC when custody is state prison custody. Use SAVIN when a notification or custody search path is more useful.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Options / Format Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inmate Listings | App feature | n/a | County says the sheriff app contains inmate listings. |
| Inmate Commissary | App feature | n/a | County says the app links inmate commissary information. |
| Inmate Medical | App feature | n/a | County says the app includes inmate medical information. |
| IDOC incarcerated name | Text | Optional path | Search by last name or first and last name for state prisoners. |
| IDOC DOC number | Text or number | Optional path | Use when the Department of Correction number is known. |
| SAVIN search by | Choice | Yes | Offender name, offender identification number, or offender case number. |
| SAVIN case number | Text | Required for case path | Used when searching by offender case number. |
Fulton County Inmate Profile Fields
The research did not confirm a complete public Fulton County web inmate profile. Do not assume the county app displays a mugshot, pod, booking number, bond, court date, charge code, or projected release date unless a future official screen capture confirms it. The safest public inventory is the app-advertised category list plus phone confirmation from the jail.
| Field or Category | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Inmate listing | County-confirmed app category for current jail inmate information. |
| Commissary information | App and jail pages direct users toward inmate commissary details. |
| Medical information | County app category for inmate medical information. |
| Jail contact information | Use the jail phone for details not shown in the app. |
| Court case details | Use MyCase for public charges, bonds, hearings, and dispositions when available. |
| State custody record | Use IDOC or SAVIN when the person is in state custody or notification systems. |
Note: Fulton County inmate data can change quickly after arrest, transfer, release, bond posting, or court action.

Fulton County Inmate Mail
Fulton County Jail mail rules are specific. Outgoing inmate mail is picked up at the discretion of the on-duty jail officer, and inmates must place their full name above the address or the mail will not be accepted for postal delivery. Incoming mail is delivered Monday through Saturday except holidays and must include sender name and address.
- Incoming mail is inspected before delivery except legal mail, unless contraband is suspected.
- No mail or notes from inmates in this or another jail or prison are allowed.
- Stickers, colored drawings, colored paintings, and glitter cause mail to be confiscated and held until release.
- Packages require prior written Jail Commander consent or they are returned to sender.
- Books and magazines must come directly from the publisher when approval is given.

Mail rules affect inmate communication even when a person has already been located through the app or by phone.
Fulton County Inmate Phones
The Fulton County inmate phone page says phones are provided for inmate use. Local and long-distance calls can be made collect, and inmates may buy phone cards from commissary or by request form. Outgoing calls are monitored for security except attorney-client calls. CIDNET also provides phone, video visit, and messaging services.

Phone access is a jail communication issue, while court calls, hearings, and bond questions should still be checked through court or clerk channels.
Fulton County Inmate Funds
Fulton County's inmate trust fund page lists three deposit paths: a jail lobby money deposit machine, money orders by mail, and JailATM online deposits. Funds can be used for commissary items such as food, clothing, personal hygiene items, stationery supplies, phone talk time, and medical needs. If a balance remains at release, the inmate receives a check.
| Deposit Method | Instructions | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Jail lobby machine | Deposits may be made any time in the jail lobby. | Supports inmate trust fund accounts. |
| Money order by mail | Mail money orders using current jail instructions. | Confirm details before mailing. |
| JailATM online | Use the county-linked JailATM deposit path. | Electronic deposits for inmate accounts. |
| Release balance | Remaining balance is issued by check. | Applies if money remains at release. |

Money deposit channels are separate from bond, fines, and court costs, which belong to the court or clerk process.
Fulton County Custody and Court
Arrested persons held in Fulton County are under the care and custody of the Sheriff's Office. Court security is also a sheriff responsibility, so jail custody and court appearances can intersect quickly after arrest. Once a public case is filed in the local trial courts, MyCase may show charges, bonds, hearing events, and dispositions according to Indiana access rules.
State-sentenced transfers leave the county jail search path. Use IDOC for a sentenced state prisoner and SAVIN for custody notification searches. If the question concerns a Fulton County warrant after arrest, the Fulton County warrant records page explains sheriff, court, clerk, and Crime Stoppers channels.
Booking information can also lag behind the court case. A person may be arrested before charges are fully reflected in a public case summary, or a case may show a bond or hearing event before a caller has clear release information from the jail. For that reason, use the jail for custody, the clerk or court for case records, and IDOC or SAVIN only when the person has moved into a state-level custody or notification system.
Fulton County's sheriff page lists court security, jail inmate care and custody, and prompt crime investigation as sheriff responsibilities. The Jail Division page gives the separate jail phone. Those official roles support a narrow but useful rule: app listings help locate local custody, while certified records, court dates, and case outcomes belong to the court system.
Note: Attorney visits and legal calls may follow different procedures than public video visits, so call the jail for current local access rules today.
