Get in Touch

Madison County Busted Mugshots is a private reference service, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, verify a release, obtain official records, post bond, or change a government record. Contact the office that created or holds the information for a current answer.


Official Madison Record Contacts

Madison County uses different custodians for Sheriff-created material, regional-jail records, and court files. The Sheriff is the first contact for Sheriff-originated arrest or incident material. Central Virginia Regional Jail, also called CVRJ, is the regional custody route when a Madison County arrest results in jail intake. A jail reference alone does not prove an arrest began in Madison County because CVRJ serves five localities.

Madison County Sheriff’s Office

115 Church Street
Madison, VA 22727

Non-emergency: 540-948-5161

The county directory identifies a Records Specialist. No separate records email, request form, fee table, or records-counter hours were located in the reviewed Sheriff material, so call the office for current routing. Use 911 only for emergencies.

Central Virginia Regional Jail

13021 James Madison Highway
Orange, VA 22960

Phone: 540-672-3222

For an adult booking or release record, use CVRJ’s Custodian of Records request route. The reviewed jail material does not publish a local records email, request form, fee schedule, or guaranteed turnaround. Contact the facility directly for current operational procedures.

Use the office that owns the record. An arrest report, a booking sheet, a release update, and a final court disposition are different records. Keep the person’s full name, the approximate date, the responsible agency, and a case number when one is known. Those details help an office identify the right adult record without turning an inquiry into an assumption about guilt or custody.

  • For a Sheriff-created arrest report or releasable incident material, contact the Madison County Sheriff’s Office. Ask the office how to route a focused request.
  • For a regional-jail custody question or a defined adult booking or release record, contact CVRJ. For supported custody-status notifications, use VINE; it is not a court record or a complete history.
  • For a case number, hearing, or case progression, contact the Madison combined court or the Madison Circuit Court, as appropriate. Online case information is a locator, not the official record.
  • For a person within state-custody or supervision scope, use the Virginia Department of Corrections locator. A result does not establish a recent local arrest, and a no-result does not disprove one.
  • For a federal inmate record, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator. It is not a Madison County booking source.
  • For qualifying immigration-detention information, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator. Its search rules and custody scope are separate from Sheriff, CVRJ, and court records.
