Choose the route that matches the record or custody stage:

  • For a booking sheet or booking photograph, follow the Chapter 22 request steps on the home page and identify each item separately.
  • For warrant information, use the official paths under Most Wanted. Iowa County has no verified public name-search warrant portal.
  • For a recent arrest or current jail status, call the Jail Division and consult the custody and VINE guidance on the home page.
  • For a release alert, use Iowa VINE when available or confirm directly with the jail. VINE is a status service, not a photo or disposition source.
  • For the county detention facility, use the Iowa County Jail address and extension above. This site does not create separate facility pages.
  • For a sentenced state offender, use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search.
  • For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator. For immigration detention, use the ICE detainee locator.
  • For the filed case and disposition, use Iowa Courts Online or call the Iowa County Clerk of Court at 319-642-3923, extension 3.
