Official Records Contacts

This private reference service is not a government office. It cannot check custody, arrange a release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that owns the record directly.


Grainger Custody and Records

For county custody, a booking sheet, or a public-records contact, start with the Grainger County Sheriff's Department. No separate booking-photo form or records line was located in the research, so call first and ask for the current public-records contact, written policy, copy fee, and expected response date.

Grainger County Sheriff's Department
270 Justice Center Drive, Suite 105
Rutledge, TN 37861
Phone: 865-828-3613
Non-emergency dispatch: 865-828-3337
Published administrative hours: Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

Use the county custody and booking-record resource for the roster, request details, and state or federal alternatives. A state-prison record belongs with TDOC, while a local police incident report may remain with the arresting department.

  • For current county custody, check the sheriff's official detention portal before calling.
  • For a named booking document, give the person's name, approximate admit date, arresting agency, and known booking number.
  • For a local court outcome, call the Grainger County Circuit Court Clerk at 865-828-3605.
  • For a TDOC custody or offender-record question, call Records Management at 615-253-8079.
  • For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator or the appropriate federal agency.
