This is a private reference site, not the Marion County Sheriff's Office, Marion County Jail, Circuit Clerk, ADOC, BOP, ICE, or any government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, approve a visit, send money, or pull official booking or court records. Use the official office or locator that controls the record you need.
Where to Ask About an Inmate or Record
For current county-jail questions, start with the Marion County Jail and Sheriff's Office. The jail's public address is 842 Industrial Dr., Hamilton, AL 35570, and the 24-hour public phone is 205-921-7433. The official contact-page address is Marion County Sheriff's Department, P.O. Box 1387, 280 Winchester Dr., Hamilton, AL 35570; fax is 205-921-7598. Administrative office hours are Monday-Friday, 8:00am-4:30pm. Inmate mail must be sent to P.O. Box 1387, Hamilton, AL 35570.
For courthouse public-information issues such as civil process and pistol permits, the Sheriff's public-information contact is Shelly Berry at 205-921-2101. For filed criminal cases, use the Marion County Circuit Clerk. Mail court-record requests to Marion County Circuit Clerk, P.O. Box 1595, Hamilton, AL 35570, or use the criminal division at 132 Military Street South, 2nd Floor, Hamilton, AL 35570. The criminal division phone numbers listed in the research are 205-921-7451 and 205-921-4301.
Pick the channel by custody type and record type:
- For someone recently booked into the county jail, use jail inmate records and verify time-sensitive details with the Marion County Jail at 205-921-7433.
- For roster photos or a booking-photo request, use jail roster mugshots and remember that online photos are not certified records.
- For criminal charges after booking, use court records after a jail arrest, the Marion County Circuit Clerk, or Alacourt.
- For a particular custody location, use the facility pages for Marion County Jail, Hamilton Aged and Infirmed, or Hamilton Community Based Facility and Community Work Center.
- For a sentenced Alabama prisoner, use the Alabama Department of Corrections inmate search. The ADOC locator covers current ADOC inmates, including the two Hamilton state facilities, not the county jail roster.
- For federal custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. For immigration detention, use ICE Online Detainee Locator System. Marion County research did not locate a BOP or ICE detention facility inside the county.
- For custody or release notifications where Alabama records are available, use VINELink Alabama as an alert channel, not as the official court file.
