Choose the Right Release Route

The office or lookup must match the last custodian and the type of answer needed:

  • For a named release and the public release record, begin with the full Butler County search path.
  • For parole, post-release control, or local probation, use Post-Release Supervision.
  • For a same-day roster and records check, use 24-Hour Releases.
  • For a projected date or event alert, use Release Date Lookup or VINE Inmate Check.
  • For one jail building, use its facility page and the agency contact listed there.
  • For a sentenced Ohio prisoner, use ODRC Offender Search and ODRC Central Records.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator; USMS has no public person locator.
