This is a privately owned reference, with no affiliation to a government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers a consumer-reporting service under the FCRA. Information may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. The site is not a private investigation firm.
Nature of the Service
Mercer County Released Inmates is a private reference with no government ties. It stores no official jail, release, inmate, or court records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or submit a government filing.
The service points readers toward Mercer County and West Virginia record offices, official custody locators, and outside research tools. A link or summary does not make the destination part of this site.

Links to Other Services
Links may lead to Mercer County offices, WVDCR, courts, federal locators, legal resources, and third-party search providers. Their content, privacy practices, availability, and data handling remain outside our control. A link is not an endorsement. Review the destination's terms before using it.
No Warranties
The site and all content are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no promise concerning the following matters.
- Accuracy, completeness, or currency
- Continuous or uninterrupted access
- Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws
- The scope or quality of a partner's search results
Custody data, public records, phone numbers, and agency procedures can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement from the Mercer Sheriff, WVDCR, a court, or another government office.
