How to find someone held here
The ICE Online Detainee Locator System is ICE’s online locator. The Jail Division page directs readers to the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office Mobile App for inmate listings, commissary and medical information. It lists the jail phone as 574-224-5630 and fax as 574-224-8990; as of October 23, 2026, the Sheriff’s pages do not say whether the app’s listings include people held for ICE.
Visiting
The Sheriff’s visitation page says visits are by video only, through detention-center lobby kiosks or CIDNET online services. Lobby video-visitation kiosks are available Saturdays and Sundays, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., free of charge. CIDNET requires an account for video visits, electronic messages and telephone services.
Money, phone calls and mail
Deposits. The Sheriff’s trust-fund page says deposits may be made at any time at the jail lobby’s money-deposit machine. Money orders may also be accepted by mail. Families may deposit electronically through JailATM. Remaining trust-fund balances are issued by check on release.
Calls. The phone-service page says inmates may make local or long-distance collect calls, and may purchase phone cards through commissary or submit a request form. Outgoing calls are monitored, except attorney-client calls. CIDNET’s video, messaging and telephone services require an account.
Mail. The mail-service page requires the sender’s name and address; mail without them is confiscated and held with the inmate’s property until release. Incoming mail is inspected before delivery; legal mail is excepted unless staff suspect contraband. Stickers, colored drawings or paintings, and glitter are prohibited. Books and magazines must come directly from the publisher, after the Jail Commander approves the inmate to receive the publication. Lobby deliveries require prior written approval from the Jail Commander. As of October 23, 2026, the Sheriff’s pages do not provide an inmate-specific mailing-address format.
