Why This Reference Exists
West Virginia provides several public access points, but none covers every kind of Mercer County custody. The Sheriff documents brief local holding events. WVDCR operates Southern Regional Jail and the statewide jail and prison searches. The Judiciary holds bond, sentencing, probation, and other case orders, while parole records belong to the Parole Board and WVDCR Parole Services. Federal departures use the BOP system. This site organizes those separate release records, offender searches, supervision contacts, and request methods so readers can follow the custodian that actually held the person.

- Dedicated pages cover Release Date Lookup, VINE Inmate Check, and Post-Release Supervision.

Limits of This Service
Mercer County Released Inmates is privately operated. It is not connected with a West Virginia government body, the Mercer County Sheriff's Department, WVDCR, any jail, any court, or any corrections office.
- We cannot release, hold, or transfer a person in custody.
- We cannot post bond, arrange a visit, or send funds for anyone.
- We do not provide legal advice.
- We cannot promise that an address, fee, phone number, or agency record is current.
Only the responsible sheriff, jail, court, or corrections agency can confirm custody, release, charges, or the contents of an official record.
Independent Search Partners
Some pages contain search boxes supplied by outside providers. Those companies control their own results, privacy practices, and prices. If a visitor follows a tool to a paid signup, this site may receive a referral fee. That support helps keep the public reference available, but it does not change or control the partner's service.
