Current Inmates
As of now, Cuyahoga County does not offer an electronic jail inmate search. In place of this, some of the steps above can be taken to determine if your person of interest is a current inmate. Court records and reports made by police can be requested in order to gain more information on the possibility of this person being an inmate. Otherwise, a call to the Corrections Center can give you the information you are seeking. Take a look at the Cuyhoga County Inmate Information page HERE for more information on this and current inmates. You can also get more information on a wide variety of topics here.
