Branch County Recent Arrests is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or obtain an official booking record. Contact the office responsible for the record or custody status.
Official Branch County Contacts
The Branch County Sheriff’s Office operates the county jail and is the primary contact for a county booking record or photograph. Its current public contact is:
Branch County Sheriff’s Office
379 Keith Wilhelm Drive
Coldwater, MI 49036
Phone: 517-278-2325

An older Sheriff FOIA form still prints 375 Keith Wilhelm Drive and an older countyofbranch.com email. The current Sheriff page lists 379 Keith Wilhelm Drive. Call 517-278-2325 or use Sheriffbc@branchcounty.gov to confirm the current FOIA coordinator and mailing address before sending paper records.
Choose the office that owns the information:
- For a booking record or photo, begin with the Branch County arrest-record paths and request the item from the Sheriff’s Office when the jail created it.
- For current county custody or a release or transfer notice, use Michigan VINE or call the Branch County Jail.
- For a police incident report, contact the arresting agency, such as Coldwater, Bronson, or Union City Police.
- For arraignment, filed charges, dismissal, plea, or sentence, use Branch County District or Circuit Court and MiCOURT.
- For a sentenced state prisoner or person under state supervision, use the Michigan Department of Corrections OTIS search.
- For federal prison custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator; use the ICE locator only for federal immigration detention.
- For an urgent non-emergency law-enforcement routing question, Branch County Central Dispatch publishes 517-278-3091. Call 911 only for an emergency.
