Which system is holding them?
There is no single search that covers everyone in Tolland County. Match the situation to the right official locator — most families start with the first one.
If the arrest was recent
Start with the statewide custody system
Connecticut uses a unified state correctional system rather than separate county sheriff jails. Start with the statewide custody locator or notification service linked here. A person arrested very recently may still be with the arresting police agency before transfer; contact that agency if no record appears.
Unified Connecticut DOC custody, including pretrial. Police, rural or pre-transfer bookings may not yet be included; ask the arresting agency.
Service instructions reviewed 2026-10-05. This is an agency information or participation route; a working local person-search form is not confirmed.
If nothing appears, contact the arresting agency or the responsible jail to ask how to confirm booking. A missing record does not prove release, and an agency may limit what it can disclose.
If they were sentenced to prison
Use the correctional locator
For a state-prison sentence, use the Connecticut correctional locator. A short jail sentence may still be served in a local or regional jail, or in the unified state system. A sentence alone does not establish the housing location; confirm with the responsible agency.

Reviewed 2026-10-05. Search availability is unconfirmed or this is an instructions/phone route.
If the charge is federal
Search the Federal Bureau of Prisons
A federal charge does not tell you which building holds the person. The U.S. Marshals Service is responsible for federal pretrial detention and may use local, state, private, or federal facilities. Check the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator, but a missing result does not establish that the person is not detained. For a recent federal arrest, contact the arresting agency or the relevant U.S. Marshals district office to ask about the appropriate custody-information process. USMS is a contact route, not a public person locator, and disclosure of a location is not guaranteed.

Connecticut uses a unified state correctional system rather than separate county sheriff jails. Start with the statewide custody locator or notification service linked here.

Other kinds of custody
Immigration detention has a separate official ICE detainee locator. It does not search for people under 18, and a missing result does not prove release; use the official ICE field-office contacts. Search by A-number and country of birth, or the name/country/date-of-birth information requested by the service. Access and disclosure can be restricted.
Juvenile and tribal custody may have different agencies, privacy rules, and search limits. This guide does not provide a comprehensive juvenile or tribal locator. Contact the arresting agency or responsible juvenile or tribal authority to confirm the correct process.
For federal pretrial detention, use the U.S. Marshals district directory. Federal responsibility can include housing in a local jail.
These eight legacy county names are geographic navigation aids, not jail authorities. Connecticut now uses nine planning regions as Census county equivalents; custody is managed by the state DOC.

Finding the person comes first. Once you know where they are being held, this is how getting them out works in Connecticut.
Commercial bail available
Release depends on the court’s order. A payment is not required in every case. Ask the court which secured-bond options, if any, are permitted; a private commercial bond service has separate fees and conditions. Confirm the process before paying anyone.
The person’s rights. The person in custody has the right to talk to a lawyer about their case, and if they cannot afford one, the court can appoint a public defender.

Two companion guides pick up where this one leaves off — checking for a warrant, and resolving it on your own terms.
