Find Henry ADC Releases

Henry ADC Release Destinations

The Henry County Adult Detention Center is a local jail operated by the Henry County Sheriff's Office. Adults may be held before trial, serve a local sentence, take part in work release, or remain there for another authority. A terminal movement can be a community release on bond or recognizance, release by court order, completion of a sentence, or transfer. Work release is not the same as discharge. It permits approved activity outside the jail while the person remains an inmate.

Destination matters. A person moved to a Virginia Department of Corrections institution remains confined. The same is true of a move to another jail, a federal authority, or an immigration detainer holder. The jail's release or movement entry should show the actual date and time, the release code, and a receiving authority when one was recorded. A court order may explain the legal basis, while the jail record establishes the physical movement. The Henry County released-inmate search and records path brings those local sources together.

Confirm Henry ADC Release Records

The official county pages do not provide a supported historic release search. Citizen Connect displays current confinements and admission windows, including “Last 24 Hour Admits” and “Last 7 Days Admits.” Those buttons describe intake. They must not be read as release lists. A name dropping from the current view proves only that the record is no longer shown there. It does not state the reason, destination, or legal effect.

Use a short verification sequence. First, search the exact name and useful variants in Citizen Connect and save the booking number if it appears. Second, call the ADC control room and ask for the last movement, actual release date and time, and whether the outcome was community release or transfer. Third, compare that answer with the Henry General District Court or Circuit Court case. If the person entered state responsibility, use the VADOC locator. When a VINE alert says “released or transferred,” ask the jail which branch occurred.

1. Collect the full name, booking number, date of birth when appropriate, and approximate custody dates.
2. Ask the control room about the last recorded custody movement, not just current presence.
3. Match the movement to the court order or receiving agency.
4. Request the existing release entry when telephone information is limited.

Henry ADC Records Contact

The official Adult Detention Center page publishes the physical address and control-room number. The control room is the best immediate channel for a custody-status question, but no release-desk hours are published. Staff may limit what can be confirmed by telephone. A written request creates the clearest path to the underlying entry.

For an existing record, contact Capt. A. Hall at the Henry County Sheriff's Office, 3250 Kings Mountain Road, Martinsville, VA 24112, by telephone at 276-656-4200 or email at ahall@co.henry.va.us. The sheriff's FOIA policy permits requests by mail, fax, email, in person, or telephone. A request need not cite FOIA, but it should identify the record with reasonable detail.

Ask for the booking or confinement record showing admission, actual release date and time, disposition or release code, destination or receiving agency if maintained, and booking number. Request an electronic copy in its ordinary format and an advance cost estimate. Virginia's standard response framework calls for one of the statutory responses within five working days. The office may charge actual search and copy costs and may seek a deposit when an estimate exceeds the statutory threshold.

Henry ADC Release Facility History

The present jail began holding people on March 25, 2022. It has 400 beds arranged for maximum, medium, and minimum security, plus work-release space. These sourced facts describe a newer campus, not the older local jail conditions that may appear in stale directories. State transition reports recorded early program delays after the move, while the later report documents work release in operation. That change makes the date of a source important when reading old facility descriptions.

The distinction also affects release language. Movement to work release does not mean the sentence ended, and an older program description cannot prove present eligibility. Use the current jail record for the person's status. The county facility source provides the official identity and contact point shown in the image below.

The image connects the facility name, DuPont Road location, and control room with the county source rather than an unofficial directory.

Henry ADC Detainer Transfers

An ICE detainer can produce a local “release” entry even though the person did not enter the community. Henry County custody ends when ICE accepts the handoff, but federal civil detention begins. No official source in the research identifies the ADC as a dedicated ICE detention facility. The local movement record should therefore be used to confirm the receiving authority before anyone searches a federal locator.

ICE's Online Detainee Locator System accepts a nine-digit A-number and country of birth, or an exact name and country of birth with an optional birth date. Short A-numbers need leading zeros. The system can include current detainees and some people released from ICE custody during only the prior 60 days. It excludes minors and may delay or omit records. A miss can reflect spelling, age, timing, suppression, or data lag. It is never proof of community release.

The ICE locator guidance documents that limited released-person window. The official capture below highlights why a county transfer must be followed promptly and why an agency record remains necessary after the public window closes.

When no match appears, retry with the exact A-number and country of birth, then use the ICE information line instead of guessing from the absence.

Henry ADC Release Evidence

Three sources may describe the same event from different angles. The ADC movement entry has the strongest evidence of when the person physically left the jail and where the jail sent them. A signed court order supplies the legal authority, but another charge or hold can delay departure. VINE is useful for a fast event alert, although its combined release-or-transfer wording can remain ambiguous until the facility confirms the result.

Release

A recorded end of this custodian's hold, which may or may not mean return to the community.

Transfer

A move to another facility or authority while custody continues.

Detainer

A notice that another authority may take custody after the current hold ends.

Time served

Completion or credit for the identified custodial term, not proof that every legal duty ended.

Search both Henry court levels when the case path is unclear. General District Court may show bond, dismissal, a misdemeanor judgment, or certification of a felony matter. Circuit Court controls felony trial and sentencing records. Neither portal is the source for the exact jail-door exit time. If the sources conflict, keep their access dates, compare whether one date was projected and another actual, and ask the office that created the movement entry.

Note: A booking photograph proves intake into a booking episode, not guilt, release, or the destination after the Henry County jail stay.

Henry ADC Release Transportation

Transportation can affect what happens after a confirmed community release, but it does not prove when the jail will finish processing. RADAR's PART Southern Route travels DuPont Road and lists the Henry County Adult Detention Center. The transit plan describes weekday hourly service and ten one-way trips. Official rider information describes fare-free service that generally runs Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with closures on listed holidays and certain weather days.

The route is useful only when the actual release time and current stop schedule align. The jail does not promise that a person will leave before the last bus, and the transit source does not say the sheriff arranges a ride. Call the ADC about custody processing and RADAR about service. Keep those calls separate so a bus timetable is never mistaken for a release schedule.

The official PART rider information documents the service span, fare status, closure rules, and contact route. Its manifest image shows those operating limits.

The transit capture supports planning after a verified release, while the Henry ADC movement entry remains the source for whether and when the person actually left custody.
