Match the Question to the Office
Different records remain with different custodians. The following routes distinguish a current jail stay from a police report, later case entry, or a state or federal custody record.
- For a booking record or a legally releasable booking photograph, use the Sheriff’s Records Request form and see the county record path.
- For current Preble County Jail custody, use the official current-custody roster, which is not an all-time arrest list.
- For a possible warrant, follow the official inquiry and court-verification limits on Most Wanted Fugitives; neither a roster nor a news story verifies live warrant status.
- For an Eaton Municipal Court case, contact the court at 1199 Preble Drive, Eaton, OH 45320, 937-456-4941, or use its official record search.
- For Common Pleas records, contact the Preble County Clerk of Courts at 101 E. Main Street, third floor, Eaton, OH 45320, 937-456-8160, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- For a person in state prison or supervision, use the ODRC Offender Search.
- For federal or qualifying immigration custody, use the official BOP locator or ICE locator.
