Vermont Inmate Search

The Vermont Department of Corrections (VTDOC) is responsible for providing secure housing, effective parole supervision and rehabilitation programs for inmates in the correctional system. The VTDOC operates 14 prisons, six of which are located within the state of Vermont. Inmates can be found in these facilities either through searches conducted at the local county jail or by utilizing the VINELink system.

VINELink is an online resource developed by the National Center for Victims of Crime which provides access to information regarding inmates within the Vermont correctional system. At VINELink, individuals will be able to find inmate records such as booking photos, release dates and other pertinent information. Additionally, those with a valid email address can register on VINELink to receive notifications and alerts as soon as an inmate is released or transferred

In addition to the Vermont correctional system, there are also federal prisons in the state of Vermont which house inmates from across the country. Inmate lookup for federal prisons can be done directly through the Federal Bureau of Prisons website https://www.bop.gov/inmateloc/ by entering information such as name and date of birth. This information can also be found in the inmate record section on VINELink.

For individuals looking for an individual in a Vermont County Jails, it is important to note that each county jail has its own rules for inmate lookup and search procedures. Typically, one must contact the local jail directly and use their search mechanisms to find the individual.
