Check ICE Detention Network Releases

ICE Custody Release Paths

ICE immigration custody is separate from Duchesne County criminal custody, Utah state prison authority, and the federal Bureau of Prisons. A person can finish or otherwise leave a local jail episode and move directly into immigration custody. In that event, the Sheriff can accurately record release from the jail while the person remains confined by the federal government.

No official source reviewed establishes a dedicated ICE detention center in Duchesne County. The current county jail page says it houses county and state inmates. Older county material noted federal and immigration prisoners in a historical program, but that does not prove a present ICE contract. The accurate local description is an ICE transfer contingency within a nationwide detention network, not a named local ICE facility.

Search ICE Custody Records

Use the official ICE Online Detainee Locator. One search method uses the nine-digit A-number and country of birth. The other uses biographical information. Enter names as accurately as possible, including the form used in immigration records. Identity variations, data lag, and locator scope can affect a match.

The supplemental audit found that ODLS can include a person currently detained or released from ICE custody during the prior 60 days. That makes it a short post-release trace, not a permanent archive. A hit should be read for the exact location and status shown. A no-result can reflect release, transfer, processing delay, an identity mismatch, or a person outside the tool's covered population.

1. Obtain the Sheriff's transfer destination and recorded identity details.
2. Search with the A-number and country of birth when both are known.
3. Use biographical search when the number is unavailable.
4. Compare spelling, aliases, and birth information before rejecting a possible match.
5. Call the ICE Detention Reporting and Information Line when the result remains unclear.

ICE Locator Result Meanings

An ICE locator result answers a narrow question about the immigration system at the time searched. It does not decide the Duchesne County criminal case, show every court condition, or prove that a Sheriff release was to the community. When ODLS reports a detention location, federal immigration custody continued after the local episode. Contact the listed facility or ICE through official channels for current routing.

A no-result requires restrained wording. State only that the person was not found with the criteria entered at that time. Recheck the A-number format, country of birth, name order, spacing, and aliases. Processing may take time after a transfer. Some people may be outside the locator's public scope. The next step is the ICE information line or appropriate field office, paired with the Sheriff's destination entry.

A-number

A federal immigration identifier, commonly shown with nine digits for locator use.

Detainer

A request or notice from another authority that can affect what follows local custody.

Transfer

The end of one agency's physical hold followed by custody elsewhere.

Community release

An exit from confinement that must be distinguished from an agency-to-agency move.

Note: Record the search date because ICE locator coverage is time-sensitive and not a permanent release history.

ICE Release Contact Route

Because no dedicated Duchesne ICE facility is verified, there is no local ICE street address or direct facility number to list. The federal locator and ICE detention-information channel are the correct official starting points. A location returned by ODLS determines which detention facility contact applies. Do not assume that the person stayed in Utah or at the Duchesne County Jail.

For the local side, call Duchesne County Jail at 435-738-0190 and ask whether the recorded disposition was community release or transfer. If a written answer is needed, submit a Sheriff GRAMA request for the booking and release timestamp, release type, receiving authority, and destination if public. The jail record ends at Duchesne's custody boundary, while ICE establishes the federal stage.

Family or counsel with an immigration case number may also need the appropriate immigration court or case channel. Those records concern proceedings and orders. They do not replace current detention-location verification through ICE.

ICE and Duchesne Records

The county's official jail page publishes no person roster, release archive, or online transfer feed. A missing web entry cannot reveal whether a local detainee bonded out, entered Pre-Trial Monitoring, moved to UDC, or transferred to ICE. The most useful Sheriff request asks for the destination rather than only the fact that the jail episode closed.

Use a full name, aliases, approximate date of birth if known, booking date range, and booking or court number. Ask for the release timestamp, disposition, releasing authority, and receiving agency. Request only the public, segregable portions. Utah GRAMA permits protection of some investigative, security, medical, juvenile, and personal information, so an agency may redact fields while releasing the basic custody event.

A Utah court docket can corroborate a bond order, dismissal, time-served sentence, or warrant action in the local case. It cannot show the precise jail processing hour and does not decide immigration custody. Likewise, the ICE locator cannot show why a Utah criminal court acted. Keep both records when both systems are involved.

ICE Versus Federal Prison Release

ICE and BOP are federal systems with different missions and locators. BOP covers sentenced federal prisoners and maintains many records from 1982 forward, including released statuses. ICE ODLS is focused on immigration detention and has a much shorter post-release trace. A BOP no-custody result does not answer whether ICE detained the person, and an ICE result does not prove a federal prison release.

USMS adds a third federal role. It transports and holds federal pretrial detainees but owns no prisons and has no broad public historical locator like BOP. A Duchesne Sheriff transfer marked USMS should lead to the federal docket and Marshals contacts. A transfer marked ICE should lead to ODLS. Do not convert the general phrase “federal authority” into a specific agency unless the official record names it.

The federal prison release search covers the BOP route when a sentenced federal term is involved. For state prisoners, use UDC and Board sources. Keeping these systems separate prevents one agency's no-result from being treated as proof about another agency.

ICE Release Destination Check

Research Angle T is the core safeguard for immigration holds. Duchesne County Jail serves a mixed county and state population, and an agency transfer can look like release when only the local episode is viewed. The same risk applies to ICE. Ask the Sheriff to name the receiving authority before saying that a person left confinement.

If the destination is ICE, search ODLS with the strongest identifiers and record the access time. If no result appears, verify the spelling and A-number, allow for processing delay, and use the official information line. If the destination is UDC or USMS, change to that agency's path. A community disposition should still be paired with the court order when the local legal basis matters.

1. Identify the custodian that physically released or transferred the person.
2. Obtain the receiving agency field from the source record.
3. Search only the locator operated by that receiving authority.
4. Confirm later release through that authority rather than the original jail.
5. Describe unresolved results as unconfirmed, not as proof of freedom or detention.

For an uncertain starting point, the Duchesne County release records overview separates county, state, federal prison, and immigration routes. The destination check remains essential at every handoff.

Note: The phrase “released by Duchesne County” may describe an ICE transfer and should never stand alone without the recorded destination.
