How to Find an Inmate at Kendall County Jail
Members of the public can look for a person in custody by using the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster. County jail rosters typically list basic custody information such as the inmate’s name, booking date, charges, bond or release information when available, and current custody status. After an arrest, the person must go through intake and booking before the record is searchable. This processing can take several hours, so a newly booked person may not appear immediately. If the roster does not show the person right away, check again later or contact the facility for general custody information.
