Orlando Released Inmate Search
Orlando released inmates are held at Orange County Corrections facilities. When someone gets arrested in Orlando, they go to the Orange County jail for booking and processing. The county runs the entire jail system for Orlando and surrounding areas. You can search for released inmates using the Current Inmate Database, which updates every 30 minutes. This database lists people currently in jail and includes information on their charges, bond amount, and booking photo. When a person is released from jail, they no longer appear in these listings.

Daily Booking List and Other Reports
Orange County Corrections provides several reports beyond the current inmate database. The Daily Booking List shows all inmates booked during the 24-hour period beginning at midnight of the preceding day. This list helps you find recent arrests even if the person has already posted bond and been released.
Inmate Population Statistics show race and ethnicity statistics for the current inmate population. This report updates daily. The First Appearance List also updates daily and shows people who will appear before a judge. First appearance hearings inform inmates of new charges and bond status. These hearings are held seven days per week, including holidays.
These additional reports give you different ways to track inmate information depending on what you need to know. The daily booking list is useful if you are looking for someone arrested very recently. The first appearance list helps if you want to know when an inmate will go before a judge.
Orange County Jail Details
For complete information about jail operations, visit the Orange County page. That page has more details about restricted information under Florida Statutes Title 47 Chapter 945.10. You can learn about witness protection program information, safety-related information, medical records, mental health records, and substance abuse records that are not available to the public.
If you cannot find an inmate in the Orange County database, they may have been transferred to state prison after sentencing. Use the Florida Department of Corrections Offender Search at pubapps.fdc.myflorida.com to search for state inmates. The FDC database includes an Inmate Release Information Search that updates nightly.
Florida Public Records Access
Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes is the Public Records Act. This law governs access to public records including inmate information. Orange County Corrections must provide access to most inmate records unless they fall under exemptions listed in Section 945.10.
Restricted information includes witness protection program details, information that could jeopardize a person's safety, and records exempt under other public records laws. Medical records, mental health records, and substance abuse treatment records are confidential and not released without proper authorization. These protections ensure privacy while still allowing public access to basic arrest and booking information.
Other Major Florida Cities
Other large cities in Florida also rely on county jail systems for inmates arrested in city limits. Each county maintains its own inmate search database.
