This is a private reference service, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bail, or obtain an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record for those actions.

For a written county FOIL request, the Records Access Officer address is 105 Ninth Street, Unit 37, Watkins Glen, NY 14891. The county’s FOIL form permits inspection, paper copies, or electronic delivery. Requests should identify the person, date, agency, and the specific record sought.
Choose the Right Official Route
Different questions reach different custodians. A current roster result, a historical booking record, a court outcome, and a state-prison record are not interchangeable.
- Use the home hub for the Sheriff Alerts route, local records requests, court follow-up, and release-notification sources.
- For a current warrant-status question, contact SCSO or the issuing court. The Most Wanted page identifies the dated Probation list and safe verification path.
- For a court disposition, contact the relevant clerk. Schuyler County Court’s public telephone is (607) 228-3350.
- For a person sentenced to New York state custody or under state supervision, use the NYS DOCCS lookup. It is not a current local booking roster.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP locator or ICE detainee locator when the custody stage fits.
- For a Watkins Glen Police Department matter, the department lists (607) 535-7883; its own page should be checked for current information.
Call 911 for an emergency. The county dispatch center operates continuously, but a roster or online record is not an emergency service.
