Why This Site Exists
Virginia provides several lawful ways to check custody and release information, but no single office holds every part of the story. Virginia Peninsula Regional Jail maintains the booking and release record for its custody episode. The Virginia Department of Corrections locator covers state prisoners and many people under state community supervision. Courts preserve case dispositions and sentencing orders, while VADOC Community Corrections and the Virginia Parole Board handle different forms of post-release supervision. Federal prison releases use the Bureau of Prisons system. James City County Released Inmates organizes these routes so readers can tell which source fits the record they need.
