Cumberland County Jail Records

Cumberland County Sheriff's Office operates Cumberland County Jail in Toledo. The county and IDOC sources list the jail and sheriff's office at 166 Courthouse Square, Toledo, IL 62468, with the jail information phone at (217) 849-2571. The facility is a county jail, not a state prison. It holds adults arrested in Cumberland County, pretrial detainees waiting for court action, sentenced county jail inmates, and short-term holds tied to warrants, transfers, detainers, or other agencies.

Sheriff Steve Maroon is the county sheriff. The Illinois Sheriffs' Association profile also lists Chief Deputy Russell Thomas and Jail Administrator Jeff Rake. The same profile gives directions to the courthouse square area and lists 33 jail beds. IDOC and county sources use the 166 Courthouse Square address, while the Sheriffs' Association profile lists 160 Courthouse Square for the same courthouse-square location, so public jail lookup and visit planning should use the county and IDOC address unless the jail gives a different entrance instruction by phone.

The Illinois Sheriffs' Association profile is a useful source for Cumberland County Jail bed count, leadership, and travel directions.

That profile helps separate facility facts from roster access: it names jail leadership and capacity, while inmate lookup still runs through the jail roster or direct jail contact.

Cumberland County Jail Population

The most detailed facility snapshot found for Cumberland County Jail comes from the IDOC 2023 compliance monitoring report. That inspection lists a rated capacity of 33 total beds, with 27 male beds, 6 female beds, and no juvenile-rated beds. It also says the jail was built in 1997 and had no listed renovation date in that report. On the October 27, 2023 inspection date, IDOC recorded 13 people in custody: 12 male detainees and 1 female detainee. That is a dated inspection count, not an annual average daily population.

The physical layout in the IDOC report is small and specific. Cumberland County Jail had 11 double cells, one 6-person dorm, three single detention rooms, and two single holding cells. The same report lists 4 male and 1 female full-time jail officers, 1 male part-time jail officer, and 4 female non-jail staff performing jail duties. These figures are useful for understanding scale, but they should not be treated as a live count of the jail today.

Cumberland County Jail Lookup

The public roster channel for Cumberland County Jail is BlueHorse Jail Management. It is the county jail roster route for current jail bookings when the public tabs and service calls are available. The page is tied to the Cumberland facility code CUMB and may redirect mobile browsers to a tab-based version. A visitor may see a loading message, a blank list, or limited tabs if the public service does not return data, so a missing name does not prove the person is not in custody.

The BlueHorse roster page is the correct first online channel for people held at Cumberland County Jail. It is not the right search for a sentenced state prisoner after transfer to the Illinois Department of Corrections Individual in Custody Search. It is also separate from the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator for federal custody and the ICE Online Detainee Locator System for immigration custody. Illinois VINE can supplement custody status and release alerts, but it is a notification system rather than a full jail profile.

1. Open the BlueHorse Cumberland County roster and use the Inmates tab for current custody.
2. Search by last name first, then add first name if the list is long or the spelling is common.
3. Select the person, if listed, and review available profile tabs for charges, bond, detainers, incarceration information, and court rows.
4. If the person is not listed, call Cumberland County Jail at (217) 849-2571, then use the written FOIA route for older or nonpublic booking records.

The BlueHorse roster screen is the county's online starting point for Cumberland County Jail inmate records.

The interface can include current inmate, past inmate, and recent-booking controls when those public functions are enabled by the facility.

Cumberland County Jail Contact

For custody confirmation, visit questions, new bookings, release status, or a roster problem, use the jail phone line before relying on an online result. Newly booked people may not appear right away, a person may have been released or transferred, and some tabs can be secure, blank, or suppressed. The BlueHorse footer routes questions about record content back to the facility, not the software vendor.

Written records requests should identify the person, approximate booking or arrest date, and the records sought, such as booking sheet, listed charges, release or transfer date, bond information, or a booking photograph if releasable. Cumberland County's FOIA officer list says public-record requests must be written and may be emailed. If the request is for the official court case after charges are filed, the Circuit Clerk is the custodian rather than the jail.

Cumberland County Jail Visits

The 2024 IDOC compliance monitoring report says Cumberland County Jail uses Encartele/CIDNET for telephone, texting, tablets, and video visits. It also says on-site visits are available Wednesday and Saturday. The exact visit hours, visit length, visitor limit, remote video fees, dress code, child rules, and scheduling URL were not located in the official sources captured for this build. Call the jail before traveling or paying a vendor account.

Visitors should confirm that the person is still housed at Cumberland County Jail, ask whether the visit is on-site or by video, and check whether preapproval is needed. The jail sits in the Courthouse Square area, so the court entrance, jail visitor entrance, and booking entrance may not be the same. Illinois Courts lists free parking around the square and Mass Ride Transit at 217-923-4079 for courthouse access.

Cumberland County Jail Money

The sheriff's website has an official mail procedures page, but the full mail-format rules were not captured in the available research. Before sending mail, call the jail to confirm the correct inmate name format, whether a booking or jacket number should be included, and whether letters, photos, books, money orders, legal mail, or packages are accepted. Do not import IDOC prison mail rules into a county jail mailing decision.

The 2024 IDOC report identifies Stellar Services, LLC as the commissary provider. It identifies Encartele/CIDNET for phone, text, tablet, and video visit services. Official Cumberland County sources did not publish current account fees in the captured material. The sheriff's FAQ gives an important bond warning: if money is placed into commissary so an inmate can use it for bond, the deposit becomes the inmate's property, may be used at the inmate's discretion, and may be reduced by a negative commissary balance. For bond, the sheriff recommends direct posting at the Sheriff's Office.

The sheriff's FAQ is the local source for bond posting and commissary risk at Cumberland County Jail.

That warning matters because bond money and commissary money can follow different return and ownership rules.

Cumberland County Jail Booking

Booking at Cumberland County Jail creates the jail record used for custody, charges, housing, property, medical screening, and release or transfer. IDOC inspection materials check whether the jail maintains admission and confinement records, including health condition at admission, medications, property, cash, visitor names and dates, misconduct, case disposition, judge, and court information. The 2024 report identifies Cumberland County Health Department for medical screenings, LifeLinks for mental-health screenings, and Effingham Dental Group for additional dental services.

BlueHorse profile modules can show a booking number, jacket number, book date, release date, arresting agency, building, pod, cell, bed, charges, bond, detainers, court entries, and a booking image if enabled. Some fields are agency-style identifiers or sensitive data, so public users may see blanks or a narrower record. A detainer means another agency has a hold or request that can prevent release even when a local bond field appears payable. A farm-out location field can show an outside holding location if used, but no official Cumberland County aggregate farm-out arrangement was located.

Booking number

The event number tied to a single jail intake.

Jacket number

A person-level jail identifier that can connect more than one booking.

Detainer

A hold or request from another agency that may block release.

Pretrial detainee

A person held before final case disposition or sentence.

Cumberland County Jail Programs

The 2024 IDOC report gives the clearest picture of daily jail services and conditions. Meals were prepared on-site by jail staff. GED materials came from Lake Land College. Substance-abuse screenings for judge, court, and sentencing use came through Hour House. The law library used a kiosk with Illinois Compiled Statutes, and religious volunteer phone calls and visits were available on request. The same report documents pest control and fire or kitchen inspections, including a kitchen inspection by Cumberland County Health Department and fire equipment inspections by Fire Equipment Services & Sales.

IDOC's 2023 improvement notes describe practical facility updates: shoes, sheets, and blankets were purchased; a television was bought for discovery viewing in the library; a security mirror was added to the dorm; a washer was purchased; a phone was moved to booking so calls could be recorded; cell sliders were repaired or upgraded; toilet repairs were completed; and a dedicated jail transport vehicle was purchased. Tablets were approved in 2023 and later appeared in the 2024 report through the Encartele/CIDNET service listing.

Directions to Cumberland County Jail are tied to Toledo's Courthouse Square. The Illinois Sheriffs' Association route says to take I-70 Exit 119, go south on Illinois Route 130 to Illinois Route 121, and continue to Toledo, with the jail on the southwest corner of Courthouse Square. Drivers should verify the public entrance by phone because the jail, sheriff's office, and courthouse functions share the same small square area.
