WTYE Mugshots: Find the Post, Then Verify the Arrest Record

WTYE/WTAY publishes a dedicated mugshot archive with monthly arrest posts. If you are trying to confirm a recent booking around Robinson or Crawford County, use that archive as the discovery step, then verify current custody and court information through the Crawford County Sheriff, Circuit Clerk, Illinois VINE or Illinois Department of Corrections.

A mugshot page can show that a person appeared in a booking-related post at a particular time, but it does not tell you the final outcome of the case. Release, dismissal, amended charges, court disposition and later state custody require separate checks.

Arrest is not conviction. A booking photo, arrest entry or criminal charge is an allegation or custody record, not proof that the person was found guilty. Match names carefully and confirm the case through an authoritative source before relying on the information.

Start Your WTYE Mugshot Search

If you only want to see the monthly WTYE mugshot posts, begin with WTYE’s own archive. If you need to know whether someone is still in custody or what happened after booking, continue to the county and state sources below.

WTYE is a media source, not the official jail or court database. Use government records when the exact custody status or case outcome matters.

Use the media post to identify the arrest, then move through official sources according to the question you need answered.

What the WTYE Mugshots Archive Shows

WTYE/WTAY maintains a page specifically labeled “WTYE Mugshots.” Its archive is organized through dated monthly posts, which makes it useful when you know roughly when an arrest occurred but do not know the exact booking date.

Good use of the WTYE archive

  • Check a recent monthly mugshot post.
  • Confirm the spelling of a person’s name.
  • Identify the approximate arrest or booking date.
  • Note the charge wording shown with the post.

Questions WTYE cannot settle by itself

  • Whether the person remains in jail today.
  • Whether charges were changed or dismissed.
  • The current court schedule or disposition.
  • Whether custody later transferred to IDOC.
Search by month when possible. If you heard about an arrest several weeks ago, opening the corresponding monthly WTYE post can be faster than searching a person’s name across unrelated mugshot websites.

How to Search WTYE Mugshots and Verify the Record

Open the WTYE mugshot archive. Use the WTYE/WTAY archive rather than a copied third-party page when you are trying to locate the original monthly post.
Choose the likely month. Monthly archive pages are the simplest route when you know when the arrest occurred but do not have an exact date.
Record identifying details carefully. Note the full name, displayed arrest date and charge description. Do not assume two people with similar names are the same person.
Check Crawford County custody information. For a Crawford County booking, use the Sheriff’s Office and County Jail information or contact the jail directly when an online roster is unavailable or appears outdated.
Check the Circuit Clerk for the court trail. A booking entry is only the beginning of a criminal case. Court records are the better source for later filings, case numbers, hearings and dispositions.
Use Illinois VINE when status changes matter. VINE provides custody and criminal-case information and allows registration for notifications where supported.
Switch to IDOC for state custody. If the person has moved from county detention into Illinois Department of Corrections custody, use the state’s Individual in Custody Search instead of relying on the old mugshot entry.

Which Record Source Should You Use?

See the mugshot post

Use the WTYE Mugshots archive. This is the direct publisher route for WTYE’s monthly mugshot content.

Current county custody

Use the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office or contact the jail at 618-546-1515.

Court case follow-up

Use the Crawford County Circuit Clerk for local criminal-case and court-record questions.

Custody notifications

Use Illinois VINE when the useful question is whether custody or case status changes.

State prison custody

Use the Illinois DOC Individual in Custody Search after a person enters state correctional custody.

Crawford County Jail and Sheriff Information

The Crawford County government identifies the Sheriff’s Office and County Jail at 203 South Jefferson Street in Robinson, Illinois 62454. The published Sheriff/Jail telephone number is 618-546-1515.

County jail

Contact details

Crawford County Jail / Sheriff’s Office
203 South Jefferson Street
Robinson, IL 62454
618-546-1515
When to call

Use the jail for a current-status question

Calling is appropriate when a roster link does not load, an older page conflicts with newer information, or you need to determine whether the person is still in local custody.

Do not mistake an old jail roster for a live roster. Crawford County has been transitioning between county websites, and older roster pages can remain searchable. Check the date on any roster before treating it as current.

Check Crawford County Court Records After the Booking

The Crawford County Circuit Clerk is the local court-record contact. The county lists the office in the courthouse in Robinson, with public hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and telephone number 618-544-3512.

Useful distinctions after finding a WTYE mugshot.
Question Best source Why
Was the person mentioned in a monthly mugshot post? WTYE / WTAY Direct source for its own published mugshot archive.
Is the person still in county custody? Crawford County Sheriff / Jail Custody can change after a media post is published.
What happened in the criminal case? Circuit Clerk / court record Court records are the proper place to verify filings and disposition.
Did custody move to state prison? Illinois DOC County jail and state corrections are separate custody systems.
Keep the case number when you find it. A case number is usually a more reliable follow-up identifier than repeatedly searching a common name.

When to Use Illinois DOC or VINE

Illinois VINE

Illinois VINE is a free, secure notification system that can provide custody-status and criminal-case information. Users can register for supported notifications by email, text, phone or the VINE mobile application.

Open Illinois VINE information

IDOC’s Individual in Custody Search is for people in state correctional custody. It is not a substitute for checking a recent Crawford County jail booking.

WTYE Mugshot Search Problems and What to Do

Name not found

Check another monthly WTYE post, confirm spelling and consider whether the arrest occurred outside Crawford County. A local media archive is not a complete statewide arrest database.

Old photo still appears

Do not interpret continued online publication as current incarceration. Check the Sheriff’s Office, VINE, court records or IDOC depending on the stage of the case.

County roster looks outdated

Check the page date. Crawford County has maintained older web content during its website transition, so call the jail when current custody cannot be confirmed online.

Charges differ

Use the court record for later case information. Arresting-agency wording, a media post and the final filed charges may not remain identical as a case progresses.

Similar names

Match more than the name. Compare dates, middle names or initials, age or other lawful identifiers available from authoritative records before deciding two records concern the same person.

Use Mugshot and Arrest Information Carefully

Arrest information can affect real people long after the original booking. Avoid reposting a photo or charge as proof of guilt, and do not assume that an old booking page reflects a person’s present legal status.

Check the date

A monthly WTYE post may remain online after custody or case status has changed.

Check the court

Later court records may show developments that were impossible to know on the booking date.

Check identity

Do not associate a record with someone solely because a first and last name match.

Do not use this page as a consumer report. This independent information guide is not a consumer reporting agency and is not intended for employment, tenant, credit, insurance or other FCRA-regulated eligibility decisions.
