Massachusetts Inmate Search

Massachusetts
Updated on: December 18, 2022

The public can use the Massachusetts State inmate search online tool to find state inmates and offenders in custody. You can also get the inmate list by calling, emailing, or going to the central offices of Milford City. However, before kick-starting the process, have the inmate's primary information, like the full name and MADOC number. 

Massachusetts State Inmate Search 

The Massachusetts Department of Correction manages 15 state correctional institutions across the state. Apart from the mentioned search methods, VineLink is an official third-party service provider contracted by the department. It is a better, faster, and easier-to-use option that is accessible to all users. However, there is a caution for errors or omissions in the available data.    

Below are a few quick steps to get started. 

Step 1 

Visit the Massachusetts State Offender Locator page on the VINELink official site. You'll need the last and first name or the inmate's ID number.   

Step 2 

Once on the search page, enter details in the blank spaces and click whether or not to display photos. 

Step 3 

The screen will show a list of names that are similar, including gender, custody status, and details about custody. Clicking on the record details menu exposes more data. The online system will only share adult inmate details, not juvenile information, which remains confidential.   

Writing to the department's central office is another channel for performing a Massachusetts State inmate search. Friends and families can mail inquiries to the following postal address: Massachusetts DOC Headquarters, 50 Maple Street, Milford City, MA 01757, US.  

There are over twelve correctional facilities operating within the state of Massachusetts. You can visit the specific government jail or prison to find an inmate or call +1-508-422-3300 during working hours, Monday through Friday, for inmate search-related issues.
