Corrections data is governed by Minnesota Statute 13.85. This statute sets boundaries on what is public and what remains private in jail records. Medical information, mental health data, and treatment participation details are not public. The roster reflects the public-facing portion of that information. For records not available online, you can submit a formal data practices request to the Marshall County Sheriff's Office.

VINE Notifications
Marshall County is part of the Minnesota VINE (Victim Information and Notification Everyday) system. VINE lets you track custody status changes at the Marshall County Jail and receive automatic alerts when an inmate is released, transferred, or has another status change recorded. The service is free and open to anyone. You do not have to be a victim to register.
Register at VINELink or by calling 877-664-8463. Choose to receive alerts by phone call, text message, or email. VINE operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. For families of incarcerated individuals, VINE is especially useful because it removes the need to call the jail repeatedly to check status.
The VINE system also covers state prison facilities. If someone from Marshall County is transferred to a Minnesota Department of Corrections facility, VINE will continue to monitor their status and send alerts. This makes it a useful tool even after a case moves beyond the local jail level.
