Locate DCSO Annex Release Records

To find someone released from DCSO Annex, use the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office custody system and its central information service. The Annex does not operate a separate public roster. A person who leaves the building may enter the community, move to another DCSO unit, or transfer to a new custodian. The release timestamp, disposition, and destination provide the useful answer. DCSO Annex release records should then be matched to the court docket or receiving locator when legal status or continued custody matters. An absent active record, by itself, cannot distinguish discharge from transfer.

DCSO Annex Release Destinations

The Annex is a county correctional facility in DCSO’s Harding Place network. Its current facility page identifies minimum and medium security. The person remains in the common DCSO jail system, so a move to Downtown Detention Center, CDC-M, CDC-F, MCC, or ORC is an internal assignment rather than release.

A genuine community discharge may follow bond, court action, time served, or sentence completion. A DCSO release date can also close the county episode as another county, TDOC, BOP, USMS, or ICE takes custody. The release date establishes the end of DCSO control, while the disposition and receiving agency establish where the person went.

Confirm a DCSO Annex Release

DCSO Active Inmate Search is a current-custody lookup. A name may leave after release or transfer. Recent Bookings covers admissions in a rolling 48-hour window and has a Release Date column. A person admitted earlier may be absent even if released during the visible period.

  1. Search by name and compare the DCSO control number and identifying data.
  2. Open Details and read the facility, admitted date, final booking date, charges, and release date.
  3. Call 615-862-8123 for a current or released offender when the online window does not answer.
  4. Ask whether the Annex departure was community discharge, DCSO movement, or a named transfer.
  5. Compare the Davidson court docket for bond, judgment, probation, dismissal, or sentence data.
  6. Search the receiving system if the record identifies TDOC, federal, or immigration custody.

The Davidson County released-inmate records process explains each fallback. Report “DCSO recorded release” rather than “free” until holds and transfers are checked.


DCSO Annex Release Contacts

The Annex page lists a direct number, while DCSO centralizes release checks through its 24/7 line. Documentary requests go through the DCSO inmate-record route. No appointment is required for published walk-in records hours.

DCSO Annex and Records

DCSO Annex

Ask for “Incarceration Date (Release Papers)” and identify the Annex episode. Request admission and release times, disposition, releasing facility, and the receiving agency when recorded. No published fixed fee or turnaround applies to every request, so seek an estimate.


DCSO Annex Facility Facts

DCSO’s current page places the Annex at 5131 Harding Place and describes a 300-bed minimum and medium-security facility. The listed facility phone is 615-862-8187. Those facts describe the building, not a separate custody database. Release and movement events remain in the common DCSO system.

300published bed capacity

The Annex’s omission from an older DCSO landing list shows why the current individual page and a person’s facility field matter. An old directory should not be used to claim the unit was closed or that a current detainee must be elsewhere.


DCSO Annex Release Property

DCSO guidance says ordinary clothing is inventoried and stored, and the property receipt should be kept. Property may be released to a family member through the stated process. Remaining commissary funds are issued on a debit card at release. These are operational steps within the release or transfer process.

Property clerks use the active JMS release list, confirm identity through fingerprints or a mugshot, obtain signatures, and record the release. They may hand property to the person or the next law-enforcement custodian. The latter route is direct evidence that property processing can accompany continued custody.

Note: Property release from the Annex does not establish community release when another authority receives the person.


DCSO Annex Name Changes

Davidson’s jail campus names changed in 2020. Downtown Detention Center opened, Hill Detention Center closed, MCC populations moved, and a former Metro Detention Facility annex was repurposed for women. Legacy names and current assignments can therefore diverge.

Use the date of the record and the current DCSO detail. A historic campus label may be accurate for an old booking but wrong for a new one. The current Annex page carries more weight for present facility facts than an older general landing list.


DCSO Annex Immigration Transfers

A release entry can identify a handoff to immigration custody rather than return to the community. A historic ICE agreement refers to the former Davidson County Jail at another address. That document provides local context but cannot prove a current Annex hold or present agreement.

Ask DCSO to identify the destination. If ICE is named, search the official Online Detainee Locator by A-number and country of birth or by biographical details. When no result appears, data delay and locator coverage remain possible. Preserve the narrow source statement instead of assuming unconditional release.


DCSO Annex Release Record Fields

The Annex record belongs to one DCSO custody episode. Details can include JMS and control numbers, facility or unit, admission, arrest booking, final booking, exact release time, charges, and sentencing information. These fields distinguish similar names and connect the episode to a clerk case.

FieldUse
Control number or OCAIdentifies the DCSO episode
FacilityShows the recorded unit
Admitted dateMarks the start of custody
Release dateMarks DCSO’s end time
DestinationSeparates discharge from transfer

The release time does not explain the legal reason. Use the docket for bond, judgment, sentence credit, probation, or dismissal. Use the receiving locator when another custodian is named.


DCSO Annex Court Release Checks

The Davidson Criminal Court Clerk maintains the durable local case path. Search the defendant and open the docket for the judgment, bond or release order, sentence, probation entry, revocation, or dismissal. A certified copy may be required for formal proof.

Court and jail dates answer different questions. An order can precede DCSO processing. A bond release ends the Annex stay while the charge remains pending. A dismissal causes release only when no other hold exists. Report the DCSO timestamp and court event as separate facts.

For an older Annex episode, call the information center or request Release Papers. Recent Bookings is admission-based and does not promise long-term online retention. Provide a date range, date of birth, and control number, then ask for the release type, exact time, and receiving agency. Request inspection or an electronic copy and obtain a cost estimate before chargeable work begins.


DCSO Annex Active Versus Released

The Active Inmate Search answers whether DCSO currently reports a person in its jail system. It is expected to lose a person after release. Recent Bookings answers a different question because eligibility depends on admission during the rolling 48-hour period. Its Release Date column confirms some completed episodes, but it cannot supply a complete Annex release history.

When both searches are empty, check spelling, aliases, date of birth, and the date window. Then call the information center. Report “no matching public result found” until DCSO supplies the record. An empty roster does not establish community release, transfer destination, or absence of an older booking.


DCSO Annex Transfer Proof

A transfer record should identify the receiving authority when that field is available. If TDOC received the person, FOIL may show incarcerated status and a state location. If federal authorities received the person, BOP or USMS records may apply. If ICE received the person, use the A-number and immigration locator. Each identifier belongs to its own system.

The absence of a match in a receiving locator does not erase the Annex disposition. Data can lag, pretrial federal custody may remain with USMS, and some immigration records may not appear publicly. Preserve the DCSO transfer statement and seek the receiving agency’s record rather than rewriting the event as release.


DCSO Annex Public Record Access

Under Tennessee’s public-record framework, a precise request is more useful than a request for proof that someone is free. Identify the existing booking and release episode. Seek the control number, admission, facility, release date and time, disposition code, and receiving agency. DCSO can redact protected information or apply a statutory exception where required.

If prompt access is impractical, the state response framework generally requires production, a legally based denial, or a reasonable availability date within the applicable notice period. It does not guarantee that an archive search is complete immediately. Ask for an estimate before copies or labor create a charge.

Inspection and copies are distinct forms of access. State whether an electronic copy will meet the need and supply a narrow date range. A focused Annex request reduces search work while preserving the admission, movement, and release fields needed to understand the episode.

Retain the agency response with the record so later readers can see its source and request date.
