Where to Direct Requests
Montmorency arrests and current custody can involve different custodians. The sheriff is the first county contact for an incident or arrest record, while the current housing facility is Alpena County Correctional Facility. The county FOIA route is for existing Montmorency-held records, not for creating a new arrest list.
