What is VINE?
Victim Information and Notification Everyday (VINE) VINE is a toll free, 24 hours a day, automated telephone system that permits callers to find out the custody status of an offender housed in a county jail, ODRC or DYS facility, or to find out about upcoming court events related to an offender. Callers can also register for automatic notifications (by phone, email or pager) when there is a change in an offender’s custody status or for notification of related court events. VINE helps by relaying an offender’s sentence expiration date, inmate custody status and location, as well as notification on the transfer, release, escape or death of an inmate. All telephone calls and registrations are anonymous, confidential, and free. For more information: Call 1-800-770-0192 Search for an offender and register for VINE notification at www.vinelink.
