Saline County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm who is in custody, confirm a release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that created or holds the record for a current answer.
Official Contacts for Saline Records
Saline County Sheriff’s Office and Saline County Detention Center
Sheriff James “Whipper” Johnson
1 N. Main Street
Harrisburg, IL 62946
618-252-8661
The official sheriff page says the office is available 24/7. Its FOIA prompt renders info@salinecosheriff.com; verify that rendered mail link by phone or on the official sheriff page before sending a request. No verified public county roster, recent-booking feed, public photo interface, or county app was found.
Saline County Circuit Clerk
10 E. Poplar Street
Harrisburg, IL 62946
618-253-5096
Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The Circuit Clerk is the local court-record contact. Its linked Judici Saline County search can provide public case context, but it is not a current custody certification.
Harrisburg Police Department
110 East Locust Street
Harrisburg, IL 62946
618-253-7451
Police FOIA contact: jbennett@harrisburgpd.org
City Hall hours: Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. | Fax: 618-252-1553
Use the Harrisburg FOIA page for the city’s request channels. A city police report and a county detention booking record may be different records.
Illinois Department of Corrections FOIA
1301 Concordia Court, P.O. Box 19277
Springfield, IL 62794-9277
217-558-2200, extension 4166
DOC.FOIARequest@illinois.gov
Use this route for an IDOC state-custody record or photo, not a county booking photo. The IDOC FOIA page supplies the agency’s current request instructions.
Eldorado and Carrier Mills leads
Eldorado: 618-273-6566
Carrier Mills: 618-994-2035
These are general municipal directory leads, not confirmed police records lines. Call the relevant city office to verify the current records custodian before sending a request. The county facility remains the Saline County Detention Center when county custody is used.
Choose the route that matches the record and custody state. No listed office can promise that a record exists, that a photograph is releasable, or that a person is currently held. A booking is an accusation, not a conviction, and a release from county custody does not establish the court disposition.
- For a Saline County booking record or photograph, start with the county search and FOIA steps, then contact the Sheriff’s Office and Detention Center directly.
- For a warrant question or post-release court context, use the Sheriff’s Office procedure and the Most Wanted Fugitives page. No verified current county warrant portal or official most-wanted list was found.
- For a recent arrest, check the countywide record path, but do not assume a person will appear online because no public Saline County roster or booking feed was verified.
- For a release date or alert, call the official custody contact. No official county custody-alert app was verified. The separate Harrisburg PD app describes tips and public-safety alerts, not a jail roster.
- For the detention facility, use the Saline County Sheriff’s Office and Detention Center contact above. The 2024 IDOC inspection is an official facility reference, not a live custody list.
- For a sentenced state prisoner’s record or current IDOC photo, use the Illinois Department of Corrections offender search and its FOIA office.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP locator or ICE locator. Those systems cover different custody systems and are not substitutes for a county booking response.
