Find Fillmore County Jail Releases

Fillmore Jail Release Paths

The Fillmore County Sheriff operates the jail, also called the Fillmore County Adult Detention Center. When custody ends there, the next step is not always freedom in the community. A person may post bail or bond, complete a county term, receive a court order, move into Work Release or Huber status, transfer to another county, enter Minnesota Department of Corrections custody, or pass to a federal or immigration authority. A data correction can also remove a name. The current roster does not state which path occurred after an entry disappears.

Use exact labels when recording the outcome. “Released from this facility” means Fillmore’s physical custody ended. “Currently listed in Fillmore custody” means the person appeared on a dated roster snapshot. “Not currently listed” does not name a destination. “Sentence discharged” is narrower and means the sentence and any supervision obligation ended. Those four phrases prevent a transfer to state prison from being mistaken for a community release.

Confirm Fillmore Jail Releases

The official Fillmore County roster gateway describes a daily list of people in jail and warns that bookings and releases can occur after the update. Its linked “In Custody” endpoint shows a timestamp, photo, MNI, name, sex, age, booking number, intake date, charges, and bail or bond. It offers no released tab, archive, date filter, or name search. The roster can support a cautious statement that someone was listed at the snapshot time. It cannot establish the time or legal basis of a later release.

A focused search moves from the current snapshot to the record-owning office. The full county search and records workflow is also covered on the Fillmore County released inmates home page. For a jail-specific check, use this order:

1. Open the official roster gateway and note its date or timestamp. Match more than a name when possible, using the booking number or MNI.
2. Call the jail at 507-765-3874. Ask whether the identified booking ended, when it ended, and whether the event was release or transfer.
3. Check Minnesota VINE for the named county-jail detainee. Treat an event as a notification signal, then verify it with Fillmore.
4. Use Minnesota Court Records Online to read the court disposition and sentence context. A court entry does not prove the minute jail processing ended.
5. If phone information is not enough, request existing public release or transfer data from the county and identify the specific booking.

As of July 24, 2026, Fillmore County published no rolling 24-hour or 72-hour released-person feed. Do not substitute a private list or infer an event by comparing old roster copies. Minnesota VINE can report county custody events, yet the county itself says not to rely on it alone.

Note: A roster timestamp is useful context, but the county’s daily update schedule does not make the list a real-time release record.

Fillmore Jail Release Records

Minnesota law defines a useful core of public arrest data at the agency that created it. Minnesota Statutes section 13.82, subdivision 2 covers the date, time, and legal basis for release. If the person was transferred, the same subdivision covers the transfer date and time, legal basis, and receiving person or agency. These fields answer the key question that the current roster cannot: whether Fillmore custody ended through community release or movement to another authority.

Start at the county’s data privacy and request hub and use DATA Information Disclosure Request A. The verified county pages do not promise one fixed response time or one universal price for this exact request. Ask for a cost estimate and choose electronic inspection or an electronic copy where practical. Inspection of public data is free, while lawful copy costs may apply.

Phrase the request around existing data. Include the full name and date of birth, plus the MNI or booking number if known. Ask for the public release or transfer entry tied to that booking. Section 13.82, subdivision 18 does not require the county to create a custom report or preserve a special release list that it does not otherwise maintain.

Fillmore Jail Records Contact

Direct contact is the shortest route when the question concerns a recent Fillmore custody event. The jail can distinguish a release from a transfer before a formal request is prepared. Sheriff business hours apply to routine office work, while dispatch operates at all times. The county identifies Jamie Fenske as jail administrator and Sheriff John DeGeorge as sheriff, but requests should be directed by function rather than assuming either official personally handles the record.

For a routine records request, follow the instructions on the county data-privacy hub. If the question is about a warrant or court case rather than completed jail processing, the jail FAQ points to Fillmore County Court Administration at 507-765-3356. Court records provide the legal path, but the jail’s release or transfer entry remains the better proof of physical custody ending.

Note: Dynamic custody, staff, and contact facts are stated as of July 24, 2026 and should be checked at the official source.

Fillmore Jail Release Context

The Fillmore jail FAQ adds three local facts that can explain a change without proving its completion. First, the county distinguishes bail from bond. Bail is the full cash amount, while an authorized bonding agent furnishes a bond under the fee and collateral terms described by the county. A bail or bond arrangement can lead to release, but the roster’s Bail/Bond field is not a completed release timestamp.

Second, booking paperwork goes to Court Administration for the daily jail calendar. The county explains initial-review timing through 48-hour and 36-hour rules, with Sundays, holidays, and the arrest day excluded from the 36-hour count. A case event may explain why release was ordered. Actual jail processing can occur later, so the court record and jail record should be read together.

Third, sentenced Work Release or Huber participants report after court for intake paperwork and may contact the Jail Programmer through the main jail number. Work release permits a structured form of custody in which a person may leave for approved activity and return. It is not the same as final discharge. VINE may also use an “unsupervised custody” event label for some arrangements. Preserve that exact label rather than rewriting it as freedom from all authority.

Fillmore Release System Boundaries

Use the Minnesota Department of Corrections search only when the person entered state corrections. An “Incarcerated” DOC result means the person may have left Fillmore County Jail by transfer while remaining confined. “Under Supervision” means release from prison into the community under DOC authority, not sentence discharge. Minnesota Haven, rather than county VINE, is the notification system for people in DOC facilities or under DOC supervision.

A federal result answers another question. A Fillmore record that names transfer to the U.S. Marshals Service proves local custody ended and federal custody began. The Bureau of Prisons locator may later show a sentenced federal prisoner, while federal pretrial detention may not appear there. An ICE locator result concerns current immigration custody. None of these systems should be used to fill gaps in a county booking record unless the Fillmore transfer field points to that authority.

Release

The end of custody at the named facility, which may lead to the community or another status.

Transfer

The end of one agency’s custody because another person or agency receives custody.

Supervised release

Time in the community while the state or federal sentence remains active.

Discharge

The end of the sentence and its supervision obligation.

No official Fillmore source identified a set exit time, exit door, transport service, property-return method, released-person archive, or release statistics. Those gaps should remain gaps. The jail’s own event record is the reliable bridge between a name vanishing from the current list and the person’s next documented status.
