Choose the path that matches the question:
- For a released person or release record, the home page gives the full search and request sequence.
- For post-release supervision, use Parole / Probation and confirm the office displayed in NCDAC OPI.
- For a recent event, use Released Last 24 Hours; Gates publishes no official same-day feed.
- For a future date or alert, check the Inmate Release Date and VINELink Release Check pages.
- For a specific custodian, select its facility page from the footer and verify the person was actually held there.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the NCDAC offender search or NCDAC public-record request portal.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator and the federal record owner.
