Simpson Detention Center Release Records

Detention Center Release Destinations

A Simpson County Adult Detention Center release can close a local booking in several ways. Bond, recognizance, time served, dismissal, a court order, or completion of a county sentence may result in return to the community. A closing entry can also document transfer to the Mississippi Department of Corrections, another county, federal authorities, immigration custody, a court, or medical custody. Those events all remove a person from the county jail population, but only some are releases to the community.

The final booking or jail-register entry is the first source to obtain. Ask for the exact release date and time, the release type or disposition as maintained, and the destination or receiving agency. A vague value such as "released" should prompt one more question: released to the community, or released to another authority? The paired Justice Court, municipal court, or Circuit Court order can show who authorized bond, dismissal, sentence, or commitment. It does not replace the jail's physical movement record.

Confirm Simpson County Jail Release

No verified official Simpson County current roster, release archive, or rolling 24-hour or 72-hour release feed was found. The dependable route begins with the Simpson County Sheriff's Office, which operates the jail. The full Simpson County released-inmate search and records path is also organized on the home page.

1. Collect the full booked name, date of birth, booking number if known, and the approximate admission and exit dates.
2. Call sheriff administration or dispatch for jail routing. Ask whether the booking closed and request the exact closing reason and destination.
3. Request the existing booking-and-release sheet or jail-register entry when a phone response cannot confirm the event.
4. Match the closing event to the operative court order. Check MDOC, BOP, or ICE only when the record points to that system.
5. Use Mississippi SAVIN or VINELink for timely notice, then confirm the alert with the agency that supplied it.

Keep identifiers tied to their systems. A county booking number is not an MDOC number, BOP Register number, or ICE A-number. If sources disagree on spelling, date of birth, or destination, ask the sheriff to link its booking number to the court case or receiving-agency identifier instead of combining similar records.

Detention Center Records Contact

The official county plan places the sheriff and jail on the same Mississippi Highway 149 campus. It does not establish a visitor entrance, mailing address, release door, or public lobby hours. Confirm those details before visiting or mailing anything.

Send a narrow written request to Sheriff Paul Mullins by email or fax, or call administration to confirm the custodian and delivery route. Identify the named adult and date range. Ask for an existing booking-and-release record, admission and closing times, exact disposition, releasing authority, destination, detainer disposition, bond fields, and any available booking photograph. Request electronic delivery, segregable nonexempt portions, an exemption citation for withheld material, and a cost estimate before work exceeds a stated limit.

Mississippi's Public Records Act permits reasonable procedures and charges. No Simpson County jail fee schedule, request form, office hours, or photo policy was verified, so those points must be confirmed with the sheriff. A public-record response period is not the same as live custody confirmation. For a time-sensitive question, call the jail and check SAVIN while the written request is pending.

Simpson County Jail Release Facts

The Simpson County Adult Detention Center is the county jail operated by the Simpson County Sheriff's Office. The county's 2024 comprehensive plan is the strongest current source for its location and basic physical facts. It says the jail was built in 2011, has 160 beds, and is accompanied by a separate trustee facility described for 50 people. Capacity does not report today's population and does not prove that a public roster exists.

Mendenhall planning material indicates the city uses the county jail for its detainees. A Magee or Mendenhall police arrest may therefore produce a county jail record even though the sheriff was not the arresting agency. Identify both the arresting agency and the court. Felony matters can proceed in Circuit Court, while misdemeanors and preliminary stages may begin in Justice Court or municipal court.

Read Simpson Release Records

A useful Simpson County release record connects the person to a booking identifier, gives the actual closing time, states the recorded reason, and names a destination when the event was a transfer. Alleged charges and a booking image describe the intake episode. They do not establish the final court result. Pair the jail record with a final judgment, bond order, dismissal, sentencing order, commitment, revocation, or later amended order.

Preserve each date as a separate fact: arrest, booking, court disposition, physical release or transfer, tentative state release, and final discharge. A Mississippi SAVIN status date reflects data sent by a participating agency. An MDOC "Tentative Release Date" is a forecast. Neither is a substitute for the sheriff's actual closing entry.

When the record is incomplete, ask for every custody movement and detainer disposition tied to the booking. A dismissal on one count may coexist with another hold. A bond order may authorize release in one case while a separate warrant sends the person elsewhere. The sheriff's destination entry and the court's later orders help resolve that gap. If the two sources conflict, look for an amended order or delayed jail entry before deciding which event occurred last.

Older records may require a written request. No official source states how long Simpson County keeps a completed booking online because no public release archive was verified. Ask which retention schedule applies to the jail register, booking-and-release sheet, and photograph, and whether an older record moved to archival storage. Web display time and government retention are not the same. A missing web result should lead to the custodian, not to a claim that the release record no longer exists.

Release

The end of the county booking episode, which may be to the community or another authority.

Transfer

A move into another agency's custody, not freedom from custody.

Detainer

A request or legal hold from another authority that may affect destination.

Discharge

Completion of a sentence or supervision status, distinct from leaving this jail.

Note: Ask the custodian to define any local abbreviation instead of translating it into a broader release claim.

Simpson Release Sites in History

Old search results can point to a Simpson Technical Violation Center or Community Work Center in Magee. Those are stale paths, not current Simpson County release destinations. MDOC reported in 2018 that the Simpson Technical Violation Center functions moved to Delta Correctional Facility, and a Simpson Community Work Center does not appear in the current MDOC directory.

This history matters when a dated article or directory entry seems to place someone at a local state corrections site. Check the date, then use current MDOC records for any state placement. The only facilities in the present Simpson map are the county detention center and New Way Transitional Facilities #1, which is structured transitional housing rather than a jail.

Unknown Simpson Release Logistics

No official source established Simpson County release-processing hours, a release door, weekend or holiday practice, property return, transportation help, family waiting rules, bond payment methods, or release photo publication. These are real unknowns. Call the sheriff instead of borrowing procedures from another county.

The warning is especially important because a polished Simpson County, Kentucky jail site can outrank Mississippi sources. A 270 area code or Franklin, Kentucky address identifies the wrong county. Simpson County, Mississippi uses Mendenhall and a 601 area code. Kentucky roster, fee, bond, program, and schedule details do not apply here.

For transport, property, pickup, or timing, ask the jail a narrow question about the named release process. Do not assume a family waiting area or a set exit time exists. If staff cannot answer, preserve the uncertainty and focus on the official movement record.
