The County of Summit Sheriff's Office provides a Current Inmate Roster and Corrections contacts for people who need help confirming custody information, inmate services, or jail-related next steps.

Current Inmate Roster

The main public path for jail roster information is the County of Summit Sheriff's Office current roster. Use the Current Inmate Roster to review the available head count and photo report.

Roster information can change as inmates are booked, released, or transferred. For questions that are not resolved by the roster, use the Corrections contacts listed below rather than relying on older saved copies of roster pages.

Inmate services after finding a roster entry

After locating an inmate, the Sheriff's Office provides related inmate service options for communication, visits, mail, phone accounts, account funding, meal purchases, and packages. The Inmate Services page explains these jail services.

Personal correspondence is delivered digitally to inmates through tablets. Mail should be addressed to Summit County Jail, Ohio, followed by the inmate name and inmate ID number, and sent to P.O. Box 16120, Jonesboro, AR 72401.

Visitation, calls, and inmate accounts

Summit County conducts inmate visitation by video through ICSolutions, either online, by mobile app, or through video terminals at the Jail. Visits must be scheduled 24 hours in advance, and visitors using the Jail terminal must arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled visit.

Inmates generally have phone access from 5:30am to 11:00pm daily. Cellular phone users must set up a pre-paid account through ICS Solutions to receive inmate calls. The jail lobby kiosk accepts cash or credit card deposits for inmate funds, and credit card processing fees apply.

Bond payments are handled by the Clerk of Courts Office for the court jurisdiction hearing the case, not by the Summit County Jail.

Corrections FAQs

For release timing, property release, commissary, visitation rules, phone calls, mail restrictions, and bond questions, the Sheriff's Office maintains a Corrections FAQs page.

The FAQs state that inmates are released 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When release paperwork is received at the Jail after a morning court appearance, release generally occurs within two to three hours.
