Sending Mail to an Inmate
Regular friends-and-family inmate mail is not sent to the jail’s Duncan Road address.
Tippecanoe County currently uses a separate mail-processing address for standard inmate correspondence. Legal mail and money orders follow different instructions.
Because inmate-mail requirements can change, check the county’s current instructions before mailing anything.

Posting Bond
Bond requirements depend on the type and amount of bond ordered by the court.
Tippecanoe County provides separate instructions for cash bonds, surety bonds, online payments and bond refunds.

Someone Was Just Arrested?
If you cannot find someone who was arrested recently, don’t assume they were released or weren’t taken to jail. Booking information may not appear immediately.
Check the inmate listing again later or contact the Tippecanoe County Jail.
