Fulton County Booking Releases

Fulton County booking releases track who has been booked into or let out of the regional jail that serves this northwest Ohio county. People arrested in Fulton County are housed at the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio, a shared facility in Stryker. The Fulton County Sheriff's Office works with CCNO to manage booking and release data. This page covers how to search Fulton County booking releases, what records are available, and where to find more help with inmate information.

Fulton County Sheriff's Office

The Fulton County Sheriff's Office handles law enforcement in the county. The county seat is Wauseon. Unlike many Ohio counties that run their own jail, Fulton County uses the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio for inmate housing. CCNO is a regional facility in Stryker, Ohio, that serves multiple counties in the northwest part of the state. The sheriff's office still manages arrests and booking paperwork, but the physical jail operations happen at CCNO.

If you need to ask about someone booked on a Fulton County charge, you can contact the sheriff's office or reach out to CCNO directly. Both can help with booking release questions and inmate status.

Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio

The Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio is at 03151 County Road 2425, Stryker, OH 43557. The main phone number is 419-428-3800. Dennis Sullivan serves as Executive Director. CCNO can house up to 624 inmates from Defiance, Fulton, Henry, Lucas, and Williams counties, plus US Marshal inmates. The facility handles bookings for misdemeanor and felony offenses.

CCNO operates around the clock. Staff can answer questions about bond amounts, court dates, and release status. The facility posts a public inmate roster that is updated on a regular basis. The roster lists inmates alphabetically with name, booking number, booking date, charges, and court information. You can search the roster online or call CCNO to ask about a specific person.

Mail should be sent to the inmate at CCNO's address. All mail is opened and searched for contraband. No cash, money orders, envelopes with tape or stickers are allowed. Pictures can only be sent through the GTL GettingOut system. Funds for commissary can be added online through ConnectNetwork.

How to Search Fulton County Booking Releases

To search Fulton County booking releases, use the CCNO inmate search portal. This online tool covers all counties that use the CCNO facility. You can search by name to find inmates booked on Fulton County charges. The search results will show basic booking information, charges, and custody status.

CCNO posts a disclaimer with the inmate search. The posted list relays public record information received in the course of official duties. The information has not been altered and CCNO makes no guarantee as to its accuracy. Under the US and Ohio Constitutions, persons shown in the list are innocent until proven guilty. Information should not be relied upon for legal action. You can also call CCNO at 419-428-3800 for inmate information.

Ohio's public records law, ORC 149.43, gives you the right to access booking releases without stating your reason.

Booking Release Data for Fulton County

Fulton County booking releases through CCNO show the inmate's name, booking number, date booked, charges, and the court handling the case. Since CCNO serves several counties, the search results may include people from other jurisdictions held at the same facility. Look for entries that list Fulton County as the arresting or charging jurisdiction to find the records you need.

Release records show when someone was let out of CCNO and the reason for release. This could be posting bond, completing a sentence, or being transferred. For full case details, you can check with the Fulton County Clerk of Courts. The clerk's office maintains court records that tie into the booking data.

Visitation at CCNO

Inmates at CCNO are allowed one visit per day remotely and one visit per week onsite. All visits use a video recording system. Visitors can use a smartphone or laptop for remote visits, or use the kiosk in the jail lobby for onsite visits. Visitation is provided by GTL. Lobby hours are Saturday and Sunday from 12 pm to 2:30 pm and 5 pm to 7:30 pm. Home visit hours run 7:30 am to 10 am, 12 pm to 2:30 pm, and 5 pm to 9:30 pm on those same days.

Public Records and Ohio Law

Booking releases are public records under ORC 149.43. You can request records from the Fulton County Sheriff's Office or from CCNO. Neither agency can require you to identify yourself or state your purpose. Ohio jails must follow Chapter 341 of the Ohio Revised Code for jail operations and record keeping.

The ORC 5120.21 section covers records for inmates in state custody. If someone from Fulton County is moved to a state prison, their records shift to the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. You can track them through the Ohio DRC Offender Search.
