Pompano Beach Booking and Release Process
When someone gets arrested in Pompano Beach, the police take them to a Broward County jail for booking. 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.
Pompano Beach 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 search and release log update to show the release date and time. 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 Pompano Beach 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 Broward County jail, some people have to check in with probation or go back to court. Released inmates from Pompano Beach should follow the terms of their release. If they miss court or break the rules, a new warrant can be issued. The arrest search 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.

State Inmate Databases for Pompano Beach

If someone from Pompano Beach 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 Pompano Beach released inmates who only did county jail time in Broward 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. Pompano Beach 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 Pompano Beach 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 Pompano Beach 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 Pompano Beach 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.

Call (954) 831-8700 to ask about the public records request process.
You can ask for records online, by mail, or in person. The sheriff website at sheriff.org should have a public records request form or contact info for the records unit. Fill it out with the name of the person and the date range you want. Be as specific as you can so the staff can find what you need. There may be a fee for copies, and it can take a few days to process your request and send the records back to you.
Some info cannot be released under Florida law. Medical records, juvenile records, and info that could harm an ongoing case stay private. Most booking and release info for adults is public, so you should be able to get basic records on Pompano Beach released inmates without much trouble.
