This is a private reference site, not a Brown County government office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, schedule visitation, pull an official booking record, or answer whether a court has changed a release order. Use the official offices below for those tasks.


Official Places to Start

Brown County records are divided between the jail, sheriff records staff, the circuit court clerk, and the prosecutor. Use the office that matches the record you need.

  • Brown County Jail Division: 3030 Curry Lane, Green Bay, WI 54311; phone 920-448-4250; fax 920-391-6802; administrative hours Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.; Jail Administrator Captain Heidi Michel.
  • Brown County Sheriff's Office Records Division: 2684 Development Drive, Green Bay, WI 54311; records phone 920-448-4200. Sheriff records requests may be made by mail, in person, by phone prompts, or through the Sheriff's Office JustFOIA portal.
  • Brown County Clerk of Circuit Court: 100 South Jefferson Street, Green Bay, WI 54301; mailing address P.O. Box 23600, Green Bay, WI 54305-3600; phone 920-448-4155; fax 920-448-4156; hours Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. excluding holidays; Clerk John A. Vander Leest.

The best next step depends on the question:

  • For someone currently or formerly held in the county jail, begin with jail inmate records and the Brown County Jail lookup.
  • For a possible booking photo, use jail roster mugshots and, if needed, a Sheriff's Office records request.
  • For charges filed after arrest, hearing dates, case numbers, or certified copies, use court records after a jail arrest, WCCA, and the Clerk of Circuit Court.
  • For a specific custody location, check the facility pages in the footer for Brown County Jail, Brown County Work Release Center, or Green Bay Correctional Institution.
  • For a sentenced Wisconsin state prisoner, use the Wisconsin Department of Corrections Inmate and Offender Search rather than the county jail roster.
  • For federal or immigration custody, check the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System, because those systems are separate from Brown County records.
