Why This Resource Exists
Oregon provides several public routes to custody and release information, but they are split across agencies. The Deschutes County Sheriff's Office maintains local jail custody and release records. The Oregon Department of Corrections operates the offender search for people in state custody and some people under supervision. Deschutes County Adult Parole and Probation handles local field supervision, while federal releases use a separate Bureau of Prisons system. This site organizes those distinct release records, official searches, contact points, and request steps in one reference.
