Locate Duffield Release Records

Duffield Facility Release Meaning

Duffield is one of four jails operated by the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail Authority. It is not in Washington County. Its inclusion in a Washington County release search reflects the authority's regional custody model, not a claim that the facility is local county property. A person tied to a Washington arrest or court case can be physically housed at Duffield, and the shared JailTracker result uses its Facility column to show that site.

A Duffield booking may end in several ways. The person may leave custody after bond, dismissal, time served, sentence completion, or another authorized release. SWVRJA may instead move the person to Abingdon, Haysi, or Tazewell. A state sentence or hold can send the person to Virginia Department of Corrections authority. Another county, federal agency, or ICE may also receive custody. The final Release Date establishes departure from the displayed booking, but the destination determines whether it was a community release.

Check Duffield Facility Releases

Start from the official SWVRJA inmate-search gateway. It links to the authority's JailTracker. Though the gateway uses the phrase current inmates, the application includes both Current and Released modes. A released person usually drops off the live custody view, so selecting the correct mode is essential. The search URL is shared across the four facilities.

Use this sequence for a Duffield result:

1. Select Released, then enter the number of days that covers the expected event.
2. Search the full name and try a careful spelling variant if the first query fails.
3. Confirm that Facility says Duffield and compare Book Date, Release Date, Booking Number, and Jacket.
4. Expand the match and inspect any cases, charges, bond, sentence, arresting-agency, court, and hold details.
5. Contact Duffield when a destination, release reason, or continued hold remains unclear.

A name is not enough to establish identity. Pair it with a booking number, jacket, date of birth, or court case number when available. The same person can have more than one booking, and similar names can occur in one result set.

Note: JailTracker's day entry defines the requested search window; SWVRJA does not publish a matching promise of permanent online retention.

Duffield Release Record Details

Each field answers a limited question. Book Date identifies the displayed custody episode. Release Date marks its recorded end. Booking Number and Jacket help isolate that episode in later calls or requests. Facility identifies Duffield rather than another authority site. The expanded record can add an offender image and populated case, charge, bond, court, sentence, agency, and hold information. Not every record is complete.

The public schema is not a guarantee that every row will carry every detail. Treat blank fields as unknown. Do not fill gaps from assumptions about how another Virginia jail processes releases.

Duffield Releases in Washington Cases

A Washington County case and a Duffield location can both be correct. Courts and arresting agencies identify the legal jurisdiction. JailTracker identifies the regional site that housed the booking. This is why a search should not stop at the SWVRJA Abingdon Facility merely because the case arose in Washington County. The Facility field is a core identity and location check.

The official SWVRJA contact table displays all four facilities and their direct lines. Its successful manifest capture appears below.

The table confirms that Duffield belongs to the same authority while retaining its own address, phone, and fax for site-specific questions.

A transfer among authority facilities is not a release to the community. If Duffield disappears from one result, search Current and Released modes across the unified interface and inspect the Facility field. Call the listed sites if the sequence remains uncertain. The authority controls its data, and staff can direct a narrowly framed question to the right custodian.

Trace Duffield Transfer Records

Virginia Jail VINE can support a one-person custody check and future notice. Select Virginia and the relevant jail service, then match the person by name or agency ID and facility. A reported release or transfer is a lead, not a full historical transaction. Registration for Jail VINE does not automatically follow a person into the separately run VADOC VINE service.

When the Duffield record points toward state authority, search the VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator. An institutional result shows ongoing state custody. A result tied to a probation and parole district supports community supervision. Fully discharged people may fall outside the locator's stated current custody or supervision scope, so a missing VADOC result is not proof that no state episode existed.

Washington General District and Circuit Court records can show the order or disposition behind a local case. They do not show the jail door event. Federal sentenced cases belong in the BOP locator, federal pretrial detention may involve USMS, and immigration custody belongs in ICE's locator. Keep each jurisdiction separate.

Release

The displayed booking ends, but the destination may still require proof.

Transfer

Custody passes to another facility or authority.

Hold

Another agency has a stated basis to retain or receive the person.

Supervision

Community-based control by an agency after confinement, such as probation or parole.

Note: A court order explains legal authority, while the jail transaction records the physical departure and any receiving custodian.

Duffield Release Contact Details

Call Duffield for site-specific confirmation. Give staff the person's full name, approximate booking dates, and booking or jacket number. Ask whether the identified booking ended and whether the recorded outcome was community release or transfer. No official release hours, exit door, pickup area, property process, transport option, weekend procedure, or local fee were found in the reviewed sources. Confirm logistics before anyone travels.

The direct line belongs to Duffield. For an Abingdon, Haysi, or Tazewell record, use that site's listed number instead of asking Duffield to infer another facility's event.

Request Duffield Release Records

A formal request goes through the SWVRJA FOIA process. The officer is Melissa White, P.O. Box 279, Meadowview, VA 24361; mmwhite@swvrja.com; phone 276-739-3520; fax 276-739-3534. Ask for existing records tied to the Duffield booking. Supply the full name, date of birth if known, booking or jacket number, approximate dates, arresting agency, and case.

Request the booking sheet and final release transaction or log entry. Name the desired fields: release date and time, recorded type, destination or receiving authority, and hold disposition, if maintained. The routine adult initial-intake photograph can be requested as well. Virginia FOIA generally requires a response within five working days, subject to the statute's listed responses and extensions. The agency need not create a narrative that it does not keep.

Actual and reasonable search, access, supply, and duplication costs may be charged. Ask for an estimate. If expected charges exceed $200, a deposit may be required. No separate fixed SWVRJA release-record fee was published in the research, so do not assume one.

Confirm Duffield Community Release

The strongest conclusion combines the correct Duffield row, at least two compatible identifiers, the final Release Date, and evidence about destination. If the row only proves departure, use that narrower wording. If the transaction or facility confirms that no receiving custodian took control, community release is supported. The Washington County release search provides the broader county, state, court, notification, and federal fallback sequence.

Regional custody demands careful labels. Duffield can serve a person linked to Washington County without being located there. A facility transfer can end one booking without ending custody. Keeping those facts separate produces a release record that can be checked and repeated accurately.
