Why This Site Exists
North Carolina custody records sit at several levels. A sheriff or regional jail documents a local exit such as bond, time served, or transfer. The North Carolina Department of Adult Correction maintains state-prison, probation, and parole history in its NCDAC offender search, including actual release dates for completed prison periods. Federal releases appear through the Bureau of Prisons, while immigration custody has its own federal locator. This site serves as the statewide routing point for those distinct systems.
What Is Collected Here
The site organizes official routes by the kind of record or custody event involved.
- Statewide search and record guidance, plus the inmate release date, VINELink release check, and parole and probation routes.
- A County Directory covering every North Carolina county and its dedicated released-inmates site.
- A Facility Directory for covered jails, prisons, juvenile facilities, and federal custody sites.
- Specific help reading the NCDAC offender search and identifying the correct county record custodian.
