Questions about a Clarke County arrest must go to the office that holds the requested record. Custody status, a booking record, a court case, and a state or federal placement are handled by different agencies. Use the routes below to avoid sending private information to the wrong place.

This is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official record.

Clarke Sheriff and Jail

For current local custody or a sheriff-held booking record, contact the official office directly. No separate sheriff records line or official records-office hours were published in the reviewed county sources.

Clarke County Sheriff’s Office
220 Townline Road
Osceola, IA 50213
(641) 342-2914

Call before visiting and ask which person or unit is the lawful custodian. Emergency calls belong with 911, not the records process.

Choose the Record Owner

A clear request starts with the agency and custody layer involved.

  • Use the county arrest source map for booking records, photographs, and the Iowa Chapter 22 request path.
  • Use VINE Arrest Check for a participating custody event or release and transfer alert.
  • Use Iowa Courts Online or the Clarke County Clerk of Court for a filed case and disposition.
  • Use the Iowa Department of Corrections offender search for state custody or supervision after sentencing.
  • Use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE detainee locator only for the matching federal or immigration custody system.

Clarke County’s official sources do not publish a verified live roster or booking feed. A news report is also not proof of present custody.
