How to send messages, photos, and packages
Sutter County Jail supports the VINE service, which sends custody-status alerts to victims and the public. Register by calling (877) 411-5588 or signing up at www.vinelink.com. VINE can notify you about events like release, escape, return to custody, transfers, unsupervised custody, and advance release notices. If VINE reaches you by phone, it will call every 30 minutes for up to 24 hours, or until you enter the correct PIN to stop the calls. Looking to reach someone in custody through phone, video, or electronic messaging? You'll need to create an account on the facility's communications platform, add prepaid funds if required, and use whichever platform the jail currently supports during any transition periods.
