Plymouth Released Inmates Search

Released inmate records in Plymouth come from two main sources: the Plymouth Police Department and the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department. Plymouth sits right next to the county correctional facility on Long Pond Road, which makes it unique in how closely local law enforcement and county corrections work side by side. People booked by Plymouth Police who stay in custody get transferred just down the road to the county jail. You can search for released inmate data through police records requests, the sheriff's online inmate roster, or statewide tracking tools that cover all of Massachusetts.

Plymouth Police Released Inmate Records

The Plymouth Police Department handles all local arrest records and booking data for the town. The station sits at 20 Long Pond Road, Plymouth, MA 02360. Call (508) 830-4218 to reach the main line. When someone gets arrested by Plymouth Police, the department creates a booking record with the person's name, date of birth, charges, and the date and time of the arrest.

Daily arrest logs are public. The department keeps them on file and you can ask for copies. These logs show who was booked each day and what charges were filed. They also show whether the person was released on bail, held for court, or sent to the county jail. This is often the fastest way to check recent arrests in Plymouth.

To get released inmate records from Plymouth Police, file a public records request. You can do this in person at the station, by mail, or by phone. The City Clerk's Office at 11 Lincoln Street also serves as a municipal Records Access Officer and can help route your request. Call the clerk at (508) 747-1620 extension 102 if you need help getting started. The department must respond within 10 business days under state law.

The Plymouth Police website is where you start for local booking data and contact information.

Use the contact info on the site to reach the records division and ask about specific released inmates from Plymouth.

Plymouth County Sheriff and Released Inmates

The Plymouth County Sheriff's Department runs the county correctional facility at 24 Long Pond Road in Plymouth. The phone number is (508) 830-6200. Anyone arrested in Plymouth who gets held past their initial booking ends up at this facility. The sheriff's office creates its own records for each inmate, separate from what Plymouth Police keeps on file.

The jail roster is one of the best tools for finding released inmates. The sheriff's department posts an inmate roster on its website. This list shows current inmates and recent releases. Each entry includes the person's name, age, date of birth, charges, bail amount, booking date, and the arresting agency. For people arrested in Plymouth, the arresting agency will say Plymouth Police Department.

The roster updates on weekdays. Check it in the morning for the most current data. If someone was arrested on a weekend, the roster should show that by Monday. This is a free tool. No account needed. No login needed.

For older records or more detailed data, you can file a public records request with the sheriff's office. Write to them at 24 Long Pond Road, Plymouth, MA 02360 or call (508) 830-6200. The Records Division handles these requests during business hours, Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM. Staff can search for released inmates by name, date of birth, or offender number.

Plymouth District Court Records

Plymouth District Court is at 52 Obery Street, Plymouth, MA 02360. Phone is (508) 747-8400. Court records fill in details that booking records miss. When someone arrested in Plymouth goes through the court system, the case file has the charges, arraignment date, plea, trial outcome, and sentencing info. These records are public unless a judge seals them.

Court records matter for released inmates because they show what happened after the arrest. A booking record tells you the charges at the time of arrest. Court records tell you if those charges stuck, got reduced, or were dropped. If you want the full picture of a case, you need both sets of records.

You can look up case data through the Massachusetts Trial Court system. The clerk at Plymouth District Court can also help with in-person searches. Bring the person's name and date of birth. Case numbers speed things up if you have them.

Public Records Law and Plymouth Released Inmates

Massachusetts public records law gives you the right to access released inmate records in Plymouth. Under M.G.L. c. 66, § 10, any person can request public records from a government agency. You do not have to state a reason. Both Plymouth Police and the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department must follow this law.

The law sets a 10 business day deadline. That is the max. Many simple requests get done faster. The first two hours of staff search time are free. After that, the agency can charge for extra time, but they must tell you the cost before they do the work. Copies run about $0.05 per page for black and white.

Not all records are open. M.G.L. c. 4, § 7, clause 26 lists exemptions to public records access. For released inmates, this means some data stays private:

• Medical and mental health records
• Internal disciplinary reports from the jail
• Security classification details
• Victim contact information
• Social Security numbers

The public part still covers a lot. You can get the person's name, charges, booking date, release date, bail amount, and arresting agency. The state regulations at 950 CMR 32.07 lay out how agencies must handle records requests. This includes response time limits and fee caps. If a request gets denied, you can appeal to the Supervisor of Public Records at the Secretary of the Commonwealth's office. You have 90 days from the denial date to file that appeal.

The state public records portal at mass.gov has forms and guidance on how to file requests with any state or local agency.

Use this portal if you want to submit a formal request to Plymouth Police or the county sheriff for released inmate data.
