Official Henderson County Contacts
Start with the physical custodian. Henderson County may use Warren County Jail or McDonough County Jail for overnight housing, so the Henderson Sheriff can help identify where the person was held before a caller seeks the actual release entry.

Use the route that matches the question:
- For a Henderson County release record, use the home search and records route, then ask the sheriff and receiving jail for their separate portions.
- For probation, call Henderson probation at 309-867-6811. For IDOC parole or mandatory supervised release, use IDOC Parole; PRB handles applicable conditions and revocation matters.
- For a same-day release, follow Released Last 24 Hours. Henderson has no verified public rolling feed, so the page gives the phone, court, VINE, and records fallback.
- For a date or alert, check the Inmate Release Date guidance or VINELink Release Check. Illinois VINE is also available at 1-866-566-8439 around the clock.
- For the physical custody event, use the relevant facility page below, including Warren or McDonough County Jail when either housed the person.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the IDOC Individual in Custody Search or the IDOC records contact above.
- For federal prison or immigration detention, use the Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator. Neither system can verify a Henderson County jail release.
