Official Records Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the agency that holds the record for an official answer.


Choose the Record Office

The Okeechobee County Sheriff's Office Records unit accepts local booking and release-record requests by email at records@okeesheriff.com, by phone at 863-763-3117, through its linked GOVQA portal, or in person. Requests are reviewed on weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., except holidays. The jail information line, 863-357-5343, is for current charges and bonds rather than historical proof.

State prison records go to the Florida Department of Corrections Public Records Center. Court dispositions and certified copies come from the Okeechobee Clerk at 312 NW 3rd Street, 863-763-2131, on weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Use the route that matches the question:

  • For a released person or local release record, the home search and records path explains the OCSO request and court cross-check.
  • For an adult supervision record, use Okeechobee post-release supervision and FDC Office 193.
  • For a same-day county event, use the 24-hour releases fallback; OCSO has no public person-level feed.
  • For a future state date or an alert, use the release date lookup or VINE inmate check.
  • For a named facility, choose its page from the facility list in the footer.
  • For a sentenced Florida prisoner, contact FDC Admission and Release at 850-488-9167 or dc.release@fdc.myflorida.com.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use BOP, USMS, or ICE rather than OCSO once a transfer is documented.
