Henry County Jail Roster and SAVIN

Indiana runs a statewide notification system called SAVIN, which stands for Statewide Automated Victim Information and Notification. The Henry County Sheriff's Office directs people to the SAVIN site for searching offenders held in Henry County as well as other Indiana county jails and the Indiana Department of Correction. SAVIN and VINELink work together as part of the same notification network.

To search Henry County inmate records through SAVIN, visit the Indiana SAVIN site. You can search by name and see both jail and prison custody records in a single search. The Henry County jail roster feeds into this system, so results from SAVIN should match the local roster data.

Victims can also register through SAVIN or VINELink to get automatic alerts when an inmate's status changes. Call 1-866-959-VINE (8463) or sign up online. Notifications go out by phone, text, or email and cover both local jail and state prison holds.
