East Feliciana Parish 24-Hour Records
The East Feliciana Parish Sheriff's Office does not publish a verified rolling list of jail releases for the past day. Its official parish prison page points to a live LA VINE roster. That roster answers whether a supplied jail record shows someone in current custody. It does not show a history of everyone whose custody ended today. The sheriff sitemap also contained no released-person search, recent-release archive, or separate 24-hour filter when the source review was completed.
The best same-day route starts with the jail and ends with a record. Call East Feliciana Parish Prison at (225) 683-3313 for a prompt status check. Ask whether the person was released or transferred, when parish custody ended, and which office holds the custody-event record. For a complete daily set rather than one named person, use the sheriff's certified-mail public-record process. State the start and end of the 24-hour period in Central Time. A precise interval helps the custodian locate existing electronic events without asking the office to create a new report.
For a named-person search across records, the East Feliciana Parish released-inmate search path explains how the jail event, court minute, and state source fit together.
Request East Feliciana Parish Release Events
The sheriff directs public-record requests to “Public Records Request,” P.O. Box 207, Clinton, LA 70722, by certified letter. Keep the receipt and a copy of the request. The sheriff does not publish a special fee schedule or guaranteed response time for release records, so ask for electronic delivery and an advance cost estimate. Request an existing export, such as CSV, if the jail system can supply one. Do not ask staff to infer who was released by comparing two roster copies.
- Write the exact start and end time in Central Time. Identify the date and say that the interval covers the previous 24 hours.
- Ask for all custody-ending events at East Feliciana Parish Prison. Require community releases and transfers to appear as separate categories.
- List the needed fields: name, booking identifier, release or transfer timestamp, reason, authority, and destination or receiving agency.
- Ask for the booking photograph only if lawfully disclosable. Request the legal basis for any withheld field and all segregable public portions.
- Cross-check the resulting events with 20th Judicial District Court minutes, the bond record, or the receiving system as the event requires.
A release record and a court record answer different parts of the question. The jail can establish when its physical custody ended. A court minute or signed order can show why release was authorized. Processing and other holds may create a gap between those times. If the jail record says “transfer,” the person left East Feliciana Parish custody but may still be confined elsewhere.
Note: A narrowly defined Central Time interval is more useful than a broad request for “everyone released today.”
East Feliciana Parish 24-Hour Fields
No public East Feliciana Parish release-feed field set has been verified. The table therefore describes fields to request from the existing custody-event record, not columns promised on a web page. Ask that each event tie back to a booking number or other jail identifier. That link reduces same-name errors and makes it possible to match the event with the proper court case.
| Requested field | What it can establish |
|---|---|
| Name and booking identifier | Connects the custody-ending event to the correct booking. |
| Release or transfer timestamp | Shows when East Feliciana Parish physical custody ended. |
| Release type or reason | Distinguishes bond, court order, time served, sentence end, parole, or another coded event. |
| Release authority | Identifies the court, jail, DOC, or other source that authorized the event. |
| Destination or receiving agency | Separates release to the community from transfer, a detainer handoff, or another placement. |
| Custody-event log | Preserves the sequence when the current roster no longer shows the person. |
Terms matter. “Bonded” means release while a case remains pending unless the court record says otherwise. “Time served” may reflect credit that satisfied a sentence. “Parole” means the person left prison custody while the sentence continues under supervision. “Discharged” usually means the relevant authority ended, while “transferred” does not mean return to the community.
Current Roster, Not Release Archive
The Louisiana Commission on Law Enforcement describes LA VINE parish rosters as live data drawn from jail management systems and refreshed every 30 minutes. East Feliciana Parish appears in that roster directory. This cadence describes current-custody data only. It does not create a rolling 24-hour archive, and no official online retention period is published. During the research check, both the legacy and replacement East Feliciana roster hosts had access failures. An outage is not a negative custody result.
A name can disappear for many reasons. The jail may have transferred the person to Louisiana DPS&C, another parish, a hospital, federal custody, or immigration custody. A spelling correction, duplicate merge, technical fault, or feed delay can also change the display. Comparing yesterday's list with today's list cannot identify the cause. It also cannot supply the exact time or legal authority for release.
The official East Feliciana Parish Prison page documents the facility and links its current roster.
The source identifies the parish prison and its mixed population, which is why a roster departure must be classified before it is called a community release.
Note: Record the roster check time and exact name spelling, then continue through the jail even when the web endpoint fails.
East Feliciana Parish Bond Release Chain
East Feliciana Parish has a detailed property-bond process that shows why “bond posted” and “released” are not the same timestamp. The property owner first obtains an assessment certificate. The Clerk of Court then provides a mortgage certificate, with the published starting amount of $20 for one name and one property. Documents go to the sheriff for bond preparation and signatures, then return to the Clerk for recording. A certified recorded appearance bond must finally reach the jail for the person to be released under bond.
The East Feliciana Clerk's appearance-bond procedure shows that full local chain.
The final handoff to the jail is the key custody step. The criminal case continues afterward, and the property owner must later seek bond cancellation when the case is complete.
For a same-day list, ask for both the jail release event and the related bond authority. A court or bond entry may precede physical release while staff complete checks for other holds. The actual custody-event timestamp should control any statement about when East Feliciana Parish custody ended.
Verify East Feliciana Parish Releases
The 20th Judicial District Court record can preserve the legal event after a live jail entry is gone. Relevant minutes may show recognizance, a bond ruling, dismissal, a plea, sentence, credit for time served, probation, an amended commitment, or discharge. The Clerk keeps criminal files and daily minutes. A minute extract or certified copy is stronger than an unverified claim, but the court order alone still may not state the precise door-out time.
Use a short evidence chain. Match the sheriff custody-event record to the 20th JDC minute, bond paper, sentence record, or receiving-agency entry. If the two dates differ, preserve both and explain what each means. A judge may authorize release before jail processing is done. Another hold may also prevent community release.
Readers checking a broader period can use the East Feliciana Parish 72-hour release record process, which is designed for a three-day span that may cross a weekend or holiday.
State and Transfer Release Paths
East Feliciana Parish Prison holds a mixed population. It can include local pretrial detainees, probation or parole holds, and Louisiana DPS&C offenders. The co-located East Feliciana Parish Transitional Work Program also serves approved state offenders. A departure from the TWP may mean community release, supervision, return to secure DOC custody, or another transfer. State status should be checked through Louisiana LAVNS/VINELink and DPS&C records rather than through the parish roster alone.
VINELink can supply a custody-change alert or public locator result when the participating agency provides one. It is not a certified release record. A missing result is not proof of discharge, and a transfer alert is not proof of release to the community. If the state locator shows parole or community supervision, the Feliciana Probation and Parole office can address district jurisdiction within its disclosure limits.
A federal or immigration handoff needs its own system. No federal prison or ICE detention site was verified within East Feliciana Parish. Still, a local release event may name the U.S. Marshals Service, Bureau of Prisons, or ICE as the receiving authority. Follow that named custodian and do not label the event a community release unless the records support that result.
East Feliciana Parish Release Social Limits
No official East Feliciana Parish sheriff mobile app was verified. The complete sheriff sitemap and main navigation did not show an app or booking-photo page. That finding should not be stretched into a claim that an app can never be added. It means an app is not a supported route for the 24-hour release check based on the reviewed official sources.
The sheriff maintains an official Facebook profile, but no routine release list or recurring booking-photo series was found there. A post may offer an event-specific lead. It cannot establish that every release appears, that a person remains out of custody, or that a court case ended. Verify any social post through the jail event and court file.
Likewise, a historical roster copy held elsewhere is only a snapshot. It may stay online after a transfer, correction, release, or later court result. Use such a date clue only to frame an official request, never as the sole proof of an East Feliciana Parish release.
Note: Event-specific social posts may suggest a date to check, but the sheriff and court records must confirm the release.
