How to get information about a prison inmate from the 1980s?

I am from Iowa and I want to get information about why someone was in jail and when they were released. I know he was in prison in the 1980's. He has now passed away so I can't ask them. How do I go about getting that information?|||Very carefully|||You can contact the prison. It IS "Right to know" information in every state! You could also go online to the state's website and check...sometimes, some states have an online inmate locator that will show you the information you're looking for even if the inmate has been released.|||It would be public record so you might be able to find it at the courthouse. You could also try looking in old newspapers at the library.
