Inmate Release Steps
When someone gets arrested in Brandon, they get taken to a Hillsborough County jail for booking. Orient Road Jail is the primary receiving center. This process can take a few hours. The jail takes a photo, fingerprints, and personal info. They check for past arrests and outstanding warrants. Once booking is done, the person may post bond or stay in jail until court. Release can happen the same day if bond is quick, or it may take longer if the court needs to set bond first.
Brandon inmates can get out in several ways. Most post bond through a bail agent or by paying the full bond in cash. Some get released on their own recognizance if the judge allows it. Others serve their full sentence and get out when their time is done. Each release gets logged in the sheriff system, and the arrest inquiry updates to show the release info. This makes it easy to track when someone got out of custody.
Florida law under Chapter 119, Florida Statutes makes jail records public. You can get info on Brandon released inmates because the records are open. Some details stay private, like medical records or info that could put someone at risk. But basic booking and release data is public under the Public Records Act. This lets you search for released inmates online or by making a records request.
After release from the Hillsborough County jail, some people have to check in with probation or go back to court. Released inmates from Brandon should follow the terms of their release. If they miss court or break the rules, a new warrant can be issued. The arrest inquiry will show if someone got re-arrested after getting out of jail. This can happen if they violate bond or fail to appear in court.
Note: The Hillsborough County arrest inquiry is the main tool for finding Brandon released inmates and checking their status.
State Inmate Databases for Brandon

If someone from Brandon finished their county jail time and got sent to state prison, you can search for them in the state system. The Inmate Release Information Search shows people who got out of state prison or who are set to be released soon. This does not cover Brandon released inmates who only did county jail time in Hillsborough County.
State prison is different from county jail. County jail holds people for short stays, usually less than a year. State prison is for longer sentences on felony convictions. Brandon residents who commit serious crimes may go to state prison after their trial. Once they get out, their release info goes into the state database. You can search at fdc.myflorida.com under the release database to find them.
The state also has a supervised population search for people on probation or parole. If a Brandon released inmate is under state supervision, they show up in this database. You can find info on their probation officer, location, and supervision status. This helps you track someone after they get out of prison and return to Brandon or another part of Florida. The database updates weekly, with some fields updating nightly.
For absconders or fugitives, the state has a separate search. This shows people who stopped reporting to their probation officer or who ran from custody. If a Brandon released inmate goes missing while on supervision, they may end up on the absconder list. You can search by name to see if someone is wanted for breaking the terms of their release. Contact the state absconder unit at (850) 717-3475 during business hours if you have info on a fugitive.

The sheriff main address is 2008 East 8th Avenue in Tampa. The arrest inquiry website should have a link or form for public records requests.

Some info cannot be released under Florida law. Medical records, juvenile records, and info that could harm an ongoing case stay private.
