This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking or court record. Contact the agency that holds the record for those services.

Choose the Record Holder

The following routes cover the most common requests:

  • For a past release or release record, start with the full McDowell search and request path.
  • For parole, call the Welch Parole Office. For court probation, use County Probation and the circuit clerk.
  • For a recent SWRJCF departure, call the jail because no official 24-hour or 72-hour release feed was found.
  • For a state sentence date or alert, use the WVDCR prison search and West Virginia VINE.
  • For a specific facility, use its page in the Facilities footer column.
  • For federal custody, use BOP. Use ICE only when an immigration handoff is supported by the case.
