This is a private reference site, not the Ogemaw County Sheriff's Office, the jail, a court, or a bonds office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, pull an official booking record, change a court date, or answer for any government agency.
Where to Check First
For current Ogemaw custody questions, start with the office that controls the record. The county has not been documented as offering an official public online jail roster, so direct confirmation usually means calling Corrections, going in person, using VINE when available, or making a Michigan FOIA request to the Sheriff's Office.

Use the following paths based on the kind of information you need.
- For a person who may be in the county jail, use jail inmate records and call Ogemaw County Corrections at 989-345-5908 for current custody confirmation.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and ask the Sheriff's Office about records available through Michigan FOIA, including any exemption that may apply under MCL 15.243.
- For charges filed after booking, use court records after a jail arrest and contact the District Court, Circuit Court, or Prosecutor depending on the case stage.
- For a specific holding location, use the facility pages for the Ogemaw County Correctional Facility and Roscommon County Jail listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced Michigan state prisoner, search Michigan Department of Corrections OTIS rather than the county jail.
- For a federal or immigration detainee, use the federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE detainee locator instead of calling the county for records it does not hold.
