Where to Ask First
For current Berkshire County jail custody, start with the official jail and sheriff contact. The Berkshire County Sheriff's Office operates the Berkshire County Jail and House of Correction in Pittsfield. Its public-records page names Daniel Sheridan, Assistant Superintendent, as the Records Access Officer for requests that are not answered by a direct custody call.

Berkshire Sheriff's Records Access Officer

Phone: (413) 443-7220 ext. 1402
Email: daniel.sheridan@sdb.state.ma.us
Records request hours: not published in the sheriff's records-request source.
The sheriff's research sources do not publish a separate online inmate roster, booking-photo gallery, public request form, records fee schedule, or records counter hours. Massachusetts Public Records Law, M.G.L. c. 66, Section 10, provides the general public-records request process and response timeline.
- For someone believed to be in county jail custody, use the jail inmate records page and call the jail at (413) 443-7220.
- For a booking photo or mugshot request, use the jail roster mugshots page and contact the RAO with the person's name, date of birth, arrest date, and requested record type.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and check MassCourts or the correct clerk's office.
- For facility details, use the Berkshire County Jail and House of Correction page listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Massachusetts Department of Correction route through Mass.gov inmate locator instructions or VINELink at (866) 277-7477.
- For a federal sentenced inmate, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. For a federal pretrial custody question, use the U.S. Marshals District of Massachusetts.
- For immigration custody, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System or the ICE Boston Field Office.
Berkshire Court Contacts
Court staff, not the jail, are the source for docket numbers, formal charges, arraignment events, warrants in a pending case, and many public case-record questions. MassCourts is useful, but Massachusetts states that most public criminal cases are searched online by docket number.
