Find Suwannee Correctional Institution Annex Releases

Suwannee Annex Discharge Paths

Suwannee Correctional Institution Annex is a distinct Florida Department of Corrections facility within the Highway 90 complex. Its records follow the statewide prison system. The Suwannee County Sheriff's SmartWEB portal covers local adult jail bookings and does not serve as an Annex release roster. A person sentenced to FDC from Suwannee or any other Florida county may pass through the Annex during a longer state custody history.

Leaving the Annex can mean transfer to the main institution, another FDC prison, a medical unit, or another state setting while legal custody continues. Prison release is different. A sentence can end by expiration, parole, conditional release, or another lawful discharge route, and an FDC supervision term may follow. The source sequence must first establish that state custody ended, then identify whether supervision remains.

When a family or case participant knows only that the location changed, search the current population record before assuming release. If that record points to another FDC institution, treat it as a transfer. If the dedicated release record shows a past date and final date out of custody, move to the supervision check.

Verify Suwannee Annex Discharge

FDC's Inmate Release Information Search is the correct public portal. It contains people released or scheduled for release from FDC and updates nightly. Search by DC number when possible. FDC describes that identifier as six characters, either all numeric or one letter followed by five digits. A name search can be widened with aliases if the committed name differs.

1. Enter the DC number, or use last and first name with the alias option when needed.
2. Compare the photograph, birth date, sentence county, case number, and custody history before choosing a result.
3. Read the Release Date. Determine whether it is in the past or remains scheduled.
4. Inspect Incarceration History for the final Date Out-Custody.
5. Run the same DC number through Supervised Population and read the supervision type, status, location, and scheduled end date.
6. Contact the Bureau of Admission and Release if the unit, date, or type remains uncertain.

A search hit alone is not enough because future releases are included. FDC also cautions that data can change. The public release detail may show a photograph, name, DC number, race, sex, birth date, aliases, sentence history, offense, sentence date, county, case number, and dates in and out of custody. Those fields help distinguish people who share a name.

Note: County jail-only custody and county probation are outside the FDC release search's stated scope.

Suwannee Annex Release Dates

A current FDC population detail uses the phrase Current Release Date. Florida § 944.275 calls the gain-time-based computation a tentative release date. The two labels should be explained together without turning either into a guaranteed exit date. A future date is planning information. A past release entry with a final out-custody date is stronger evidence that imprisonment ended.

Gain-time awards, forfeiture, or restoration can move the tentative date. So can corrected time-served allowances, commitment data, a new sentence, mandatory minimums, court amendments, escape or violation time, and administrative recalculation. For covered sentences for offenses on or after October 1, 1995, Florida law restricts incentive gain-time so release does not occur before 85 percent of the imposed sentence has been served, with court-awarded time spent in physical custody counted as specified. Eligibility varies, so the rule is not a blanket 15-percent reduction.

Suwannee Annex Supervision Check

After the release detail confirms a past prison exit, use FDC's Supervised Population Information Search. Prison release and final discharge from state supervision may happen on different dates. The same DC number links the records. The supervision detail can display type, begin date, current status, current location, scheduled termination date, aliases, and supervision history.

ACTIVE means the person is actively supervised in the community. ACTIVE SUSPENSE can mean temporary unavailability for direct supervision because the person is in jail or another facility while FDC monitors the status. ABSCONDER means the person is unavailable to supervision and a violation warrant has issued. None of these labels should be substituted for the prison's release type.

No supervision result does not erase a confirmed prison release. The term may have ended, never applied, or require a corrected search. When controlling terms matter, request the sentencing document and any Florida Commission on Offender Review order. Public databases summarize, while the formal order controls.

Parole

Conditional community release authorized under the applicable Florida parole framework.

Probation

Court-ordered community supervision that may apply instead of or after custody.

Conditional release

A state supervision form that can follow prison under Florida law.

Discharge

The end of the custody or supervision term identified by the record.

Suwannee Annex Records Route

The Bureau of Admission and Release is the subject contact for FDC release questions. Supply the DC number, full name, Annex identity, date range, and requested record type. Ask for existing records that show the institution, release date and type, sentence or release calculation, and transfer or release history to the extent public. FDC's search gateway lists the Bureau at 850-488-9167 and dc.release@fdc.myflorida.com.

Use the FDC public-records page for a formal request when the online detail is not enough. Bureau of Classification and Central Records handles public-search questions at 850-488-9859. Florida Chapter 119 allows access subject to specific exemptions, redaction, and lawful fees. Request a cost estimate if the scope could require extensive clerical work.

The county sheriff is not the custodian for an Annex discharge. A sentencing county's clerk holds the court file, and FDC holds the prison record. If the record involves a Suwannee case, the Clerk's case number may link the judgment to the FDC sentence, but Suwannee court files are not posted online.

Suwannee Annex Facility Identity

FDC publishes the Annex separately from the main institution even though both use the same complex address. The official Suwannee Annex listing is the page-matched source for its identity and contact information. Correct facility naming matters when requesting a transfer history or determining whether a location change involved the Annex or main unit.

The official FDC Annex listing can be checked in the captured facility screen below.

The image confirms the Annex as its own FDC listing. Release status for a person still comes from the statewide offender databases.

Older FDC PREA material described main, Annex, and work-camp components at the complex. The work camp was closed at the time of that audit, and the current main-unit page marks it Temporarily Closed. An old work-camp entry can be part of a custody history, but it should not be portrayed as a current independent release site without newer official proof.

Suwannee Annex Complex History

FDC's historical documentation says the Suwannee complex opened in 2009. The main institution and Annex share Highway 90, but their separate official pages preserve unit identity. That distinction is useful for records, visitation context, and transfer history. It does not create separate county release systems. Both units use the same statewide FDC search and Bureau of Admission and Release.

Local detention history reaches much farther back. Suwannee County's history describes a jail on the courthouse grounds built in 1869 and a 1938 jail that served for more than 55 years. Those county institutions belong to sheriff and county records, not the FDC Annex system. An old reference to “Suwannee jail” must be tied to its date and custodian before it is treated as an Annex record.

For a current search, begin with custody type. Use FDC for the Annex, SmartWEB for Suwannee County Jail, and authorized DJJ or juvenile-court channels for youth detention. The Suwannee County release search overview explains those local source boundaries. Each database proves only the event its agency recorded.
