Bullock 72 Hour Release List
No official Bullock County 72-hour released-inmates feed was verified. The sheriff page lists contact data, not release rows. That means the three-day page should not display invented online columns or link to a third-party roster as if it were official. The right three-day question is whether the sheriff can search release logs by name and date range.
Use the 72-hour window when a release may have happened after a Friday court event, around a holiday, after bond processing, or after a transport decision. A person may leave Bullock County Jail but still be held by another agency. Ask about the destination before assuming a community release.
Check Bullock Three-Day Releases
Call 334-738-2670 or email bullockcountysheriff@ustconline.net with a narrow request. The office address is 217 N Prairie St. #112, Union Springs, AL 36089. Listed hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- Give the person's full name and date of birth if known.
- Ask whether the office can check releases for the last 72 hours.
- Ask whether the release was bond, time served, court order, transfer, hold, or another reason.
- Ask for the booking number, release date, release type, and destination if releasable.
- Check the court docket for the order or disposition tied to the release.
Fields for a 72 Hour Check
| Requested field | Use in a three-day window |
|---|---|
| Release date or time | Places the release inside or outside the 72-hour period. |
| Release authority | Shows whether a court, jail, sentence, or transfer caused the release. |
| Destination | Prevents mistaking a transfer for a full community release. |
| Case number | Lets the user find bond, disposition, probation, or sentence entries. |
| Booking photograph | Can be requested if releasable because no online Bullock photo feed was found. |
Weekend Bullock Release Lag
The three-day window is useful because court actions and jail paperwork can land in different places at different times. A bond may be posted, a judge may issue an order, or a person may transfer before public court images or agency records are easy to read. Bullock's lack of an online feed makes direct confirmation more important, not less.
Use Jail Releases: 24 Hours for a same-day check. Use Bullock County released inmates when the person may have gone to ADOC, parole, federal custody, ICE, or a registry channel.
Bullock Transfer Follow-Up
If the sheriff says the person was transferred, the release from Bullock County Jail is only the first event. A transfer to ADOC should be checked in the ADOC current inmate search while the person may still be incarcerated. A federal sentence or hold should be checked through BOP or federal court context. An ICE hold should be checked through ICE ODLS when the locator applies. A transfer to another county requires the receiving county, not the Bullock sheriff, for the later release.
Three-Day Record Request
The 72-hour window is broad enough that a request should include a date range. Ask whether the sheriff's office can search release logs for the last three days by name and date of birth. Then ask for the booking date, release date, release type, destination, case number, and whether a booking photograph is releasable. That wording is more useful than asking for a generic "release list," because Bullock does not publish one online.
When the response points to a court order, check the Bullock court site or Alacourt. When it points to ADOC, use ADOC only for current custody and records requests after release. When it points to a federal or immigration hold, use the BOP or ICE page and avoid treating the jail release as the final custody event.
Why Three Days Matter
A three-day lookback catches Friday court actions, weekend bond processing, Monday clerk updates, and transport delays better than a same-day call. It also helps when the person was released late in the day and a family member or attorney is trying to reconcile jail, court, and receiving-agency records. Because Bullock has no verified online retention period, the safest practice is to ask for the exact date range and save the office response or court record details.
