Why This Reference Exists
North Carolina makes many court, custody, and release facts available through public records, but Mitchell County has an unusual custody map because it operates no jail. An arrest, physical confinement, court case, state sentence, supervision term, and federal custody event can belong to different records. This site organizes the distinctions among a current roster, a release or transfer entry, a court disposition, a corrections status, and post-release supervision. The goal is to help readers understand which kind of official record can answer a release question without presenting a missing name as proof that someone returned to the community.
