Noble County Jail Mugshots
The Noble County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Jason Mackie, publishes a jail roster with booking-photo image slots next to public entries. The captured text identifies those slots as images before the name, booking date, and offense text. The roster is the only local sheriff-hosted public booking-photo source located in the research. No official daily booking report, recent-bookings gallery, historical photo archive, or public mugshot feed was found.
The sheriff wanted page is separate. It lists wanted persons and wanted-for reasons, and many entries say no picture available. It is not the same as the jail roster, and it should not be treated as a mugshot archive. A person can be wanted but not booked, booked but no longer wanted, transferred, or released.
The roster screenshot at noblesheriff.org/jail-roster shows how Noble County booking-photo image slots sit beside current jail roster entries.
The image confirms the page format, but it does not create a historical photo search or guarantee that every current or past booking photo is visible.
Find Noble County Booking Photos
Start with the official roster because that is the only local public booking-photo source documented. The roster captured during research did not expose an internal search box, so use browser find by name. If the photo slot is blank, the person is not listed, or the person may have been released, call the jail or use the public-records request form.
- Open the Noble County Sheriff's Office jail roster.
- Use browser find for the person's last name or first name.
- Save the displayed name, booking date, and offense text if the entry appears.
- Call Noble County Jail at 740-732-5837 if the person is missing, newly booked, transferred, or released.
- Use the sheriff public-records request form to ask for a booking record and booking photograph if releasable.
- Search ODRC, BOP, or ICE only when the person may be in state, federal, or immigration custody.
For the broader custody record behind a photo slot, use Noble County inmate records. For the court case that follows booking, use Noble County court records after jail arrest.
Noble County Photo Record Fields
The public jail roster shows only a limited set of fields beside the image slot. It does not show a booking number, booking time, height, weight, race, sex, age, date of birth, address, arresting agency, court date, housing unit, bond amount, warrant number, projected release date, or detainer flag in the captured text. That matters because a mugshot alone does not tell the case status.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Booking Photo Image | Image slot before a roster entry; angle, date, and retention were not documented. |
| Name | Current roster name, commonly shown last name first. |
| Booking date | Date booked into Noble County Jail, with no booking time in text capture. |
| Offense | Plain-language charge or hold text, not a final court disposition. |
| Bond and court date | Not shown on the roster; confirm through the jail or court. |
Are Noble County Mugshots Public?
Ohio public-records law does not create a simple one-line rule that every booking photo must always be public. The working baseline is Ohio's public-records statute: records kept by public offices are public unless a statutory exception applies. Law-enforcement records can involve exceptions for confidential investigatory records, trial-preparation records, medical records, protected personal information, juvenile records, sealed or expunged records, and other limits.
Ohio records law:
Ohio Revised Code section 149.43 sets the public-records baseline for public offices and explains access and copy duties subject to exceptions.
Ohio Revised Code section 2953.32 governs sealing and expungement for eligible conviction records and bail forfeitures.
If the photo is visible on the Noble County roster, it is available there as part of the current jail listing. If it is not visible, a records request may still be reviewed by the sheriff's office, but release can depend on the record, the case, and any legal exception.
Noble County Mugshot Retention
The sheriff roster does not publish how long a booking photo remains online, whether released inmates stay visible for any set number of hours, whether older booking photos can be searched, or whether prior booking photos are kept in a public archive. Do not assume a person was never booked just because a photo is not online. The roster may have updated, the person may have been released or transferred, or the record may not be publicly posted.
What is and is not public: The roster can show a current booking-photo slot, name, booking date, and offense text. It does not publish a full historical mugshot archive, and some photos or records may require a public-records review or may be withheld under law.
Request Noble County Booking Photo
The sheriff's public-records request form is the fallback when the roster is incomplete, the person is no longer listed, or a specific booking record is needed. The form asks for requester name, email, address, phone number, public-record request description, event date, and reason requested, plus office-use lines for the staff member, received date, completion date, fees, and payment notation. Ohio law generally does not require identity or purpose for ordinary public-record requests unless the office follows the statute's clarification process.
- Write down the person's exact roster name if known.
- Include the booking date or event date if known.
- Ask for the booking record and booking photograph for the named person and date, if releasable.
- Send or deliver the request to the sheriff's office using the form's 420 Olive Street address or fax 740-732-1421.
- Call the jail first if the person may still be in custody or recently transferred.
The form does not publish a fixed mugshot fee, processing deadline, online submission portal, ID requirement, or notarization rule. Fees are entered by the office after processing when applicable.
Why a Noble County Photo Is Missing
A missing Noble County booking photo can mean several things. The person may not be in the county jail. The person may be newly booked and not yet posted. The person may have been released or moved to another system. The image may be withheld, redacted, or unavailable under an exception. The entry may also be listed without a usable image in the text capture. The roster does not explain every blank or missing image.
| Possible Reason | Next Step |
|---|---|
| Recent arrest | Call Noble County Jail for current custody confirmation. |
| Released or transferred | Use sheriff records request, ODRC, VINELink, BOP, or ICE as appropriate. |
| Legal restriction | Expect redaction or denial if an exception applies. |
| Older record | Request the booking record and photograph by name and date. |
Noble County Mugshot Removal
No Noble County policy was found promising booking-photo removal after dismissal, acquittal, sealing, or expungement. If the sheriff controls an official roster image, public-records rules and court sealing or expungement orders are the official route to address access. Ohio Revised Code section 2953.32 can affect eligible court and criminal records, but it does not mean every copied image disappears from every place where it was seen.
Do not pay or rely on unofficial mugshot removal promises. The official path is to check the court case status, ask the court about sealing or expungement eligibility, and submit a precise records question to the office that controls the record. Dismissal, acquittal, or sealing should be confirmed in the court record, not assumed from a missing roster entry.
State and Federal Booking Photos
Noble Correctional Institution is a state prison in Noble County, but it is not part of the sheriff's jail roster. ODRC Offender Search is the correct tool for sentenced Ohio prisoners, ODRC releases, APA supervision, and violators at large. ODRC records may include prison-profile information that is separate from the county booking-photo slot.
The federal systems are also separate. The BOP inmate locator gives federal custody data such as name, register number, age, race, sex, release date, and location, but it does not operate as a county jail mugshot site. The ICE detainee locator is for immigration custody location using A-number or biographical search paths, not photo browsing. If local bond does not produce release, ask whether another agency hold exists.
The ODRC search page at appgateway.drc.ohio.gov/OffenderSearch shows the state fields that apply after a jail case becomes an Ohio prison or supervision record.
Use ODRC for sentenced state custody and the sheriff roster for local booking photos; the systems answer different questions.
