The Broome County Corrections Division is a medium-security detention center located at 155 Lt Vanwinkle Dr Binghamton, NY which is operated locally by the Broome County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Broome County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Binghamton Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.

Broome County is operating a 536-bed direct supervision correctional facility that uses double celling, to eliminate the need to board out inmates and maintain state-ready and federal inmate revenues. The use of double-bunking resulted in significant cost savings for taxpayers. The Division continues to monitors gang membership and activities in the facility to ensure a safer working environment for staff and safer custodial environment for other inmates. The Division cooperates with the Broome County Health Dept. to provide screening and treatment to jail inmates for sexually transmitted and contagious diseases in order to protect the public upon the inmate's release. This program provides for a successful transition back into the community and ensures follow up by a community service provider.

Regular discharge planning meetings are conducted with Mental Health, BOCES, Jail Medical and Council of Churches staff to assist released inmates to successfully assimilate back into the law-abiding community. The Division acts as the training hub for surrounding counties. The Weekender Work program has provided many benefits to the citizens of Broome County. The initial intention of the program was to provide free labor to municipal governments and tax-exempt organizations in the county, while at the same time, free up jail beds for use by offenders who needed to be incarcerated. One of the major benefits of the program has been the roadside cleanup assignment. In the past several years, numerous tons of garbage has been removed from Broome County roadsides. This program continues to contribute to the sanitation and beauty of the County.

Inmate Locator

Broome County Corrections Division publishes the names of their inmates currently in their facility in New York. Your search should start with this locator first to see if your loved one is there.

The second box is the InmateAid Inmate Search. This database of inmates is user-generated content for the purpose of accessing and utilizing any or all of the InmateAid services. If you need our assistance creating your own inmate profile to keep in touch, email us at aid@inmateaid.com and we will assist you in locating your inmate.

As a last resort, you might have to pay for that information if we do not have it. The Arrest Record Search will cost you a small amount, but their data is the freshest available and for that reason they charge to access it.
