Overview
Start with Michigan's Offender Tracking Information System (OTIS). It provides public information on people currently or previously under Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) jurisdiction or supervision—including prison and community supervision details like parole, probation, transfers, and escape/abscond status. OTIS only displays offenders who've been under MDOC supervision within the last three years. Older records won't appear. Entries can also be removed if a conviction is set aside or expunged, or once three years pass since discharge. Because online listings change quickly, don't rely on OTIS alone for time-sensitive decisions. Confirm key details like location, status, or release date with MDOC, MSP ICHAT, or the court file. If OTIS information is wrong, contact MDOC's Office of Public Information and Communications. For technical issues, use the webmaster email.

Common Questions
How do I look up an inmate from Cooper Street Correctional Facility?
Use Michigan’s OTIS to search for people under MDOC jurisdiction or supervision. If the person doesn’t appear, they may not have been under MDOC supervision within the last three years; depending on the situation, you may need to check local county jail rosters.
Why can't I find someone on OTIS?
OTIS only shows offenders who have been under MDOC jurisdiction or supervision within the past three years. A record may also be excluded if the conviction was set aside or expunged.
What should I do if OTIS shows incorrect information?

Then report inaccurate or outdated OTIS information to MDOC's Office of Public Information and Communications. For technical access problems, contact the webmaster.
