Swift County Released Inmates is a private reference, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, free anyone, post bond, or pull an official booking record. Contact the office that created the record.


Choose the Correct Swift Office

A custody question should go to the custodian, and a court-order question should go to the court. Swift County Jail handles current local custody and the Sheriff’s public release or transfer data. The district court holds the case register, sentence, and court orders. State-prison release records belong to MNDOC. Probation and local supervision are routed through Swift County Community Corrections.

State prison, release, and supervision notifications

Use the route that matches the question:

  • For a released person or a Sheriff release record, start with the Swift County released-inmate search and records path.
  • For supervision after release, use Parole / Probation and the local Community Corrections contact.
  • For today’s departures, review Released Last 24 Hours, which explains that Swift County has no official rolling release feed.
  • For a scheduled date or alert, use Inmate Release Date and the VINELink Release Check.
  • For Swift County Jail itself, use the facility page listed in the footer and call the Sheriff for immediate logistics.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, search the MNDOC Locator or ask Central Records when jurisdiction ended.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator rather than a Swift County roster.
