Why This Resource Exists
Virginia records are spread across several custodians. The Roanoke City Sheriff’s Office keeps local detention and release records, while the Virginia Department of Corrections maintains its inmate and supervisee locator. District 15 handles local community supervision, and the Virginia Parole Board records discretionary parole decisions. Federal releases belong in the Bureau of Prisons system. This site organizes those official paths, the record-request steps, and the limits of each search in one place.

Limits of This Site
This is a privately run reference site. It has no connection to the Roanoke City Sheriff’s Office, VADOC, any jail, court, corrections department, or other government agency.
- We cannot release, hold, move, or transfer a person in custody.
- We cannot post bond, arrange visits, or send funds for anyone.
- We cannot provide legal advice.
- We cannot promise that every fee, address, or phone number remains current.
Only the responsible sheriff, court, or corrections agency can confirm custody, charges, transfer, or release. This site identifies the route, but the official answer comes from that custodian.
