Currituck Detention Center Releases
The Currituck County Detention Center is a county jail operated by the Currituck County Sheriff's Office. It primarily houses people awaiting trial and also holds some people serving post-trial sentences. A release from this jail means that one local custody episode ended. It does not always mean the person returned to the community without another case, hold, or custodian.
Community departure can follow bond, completion of a local term, dismissal, or another court authorization. Staff also transport people to court and other facilities. A person may be delivered to North Carolina Department of Adult Correction custody after sentencing, to another jail, or to a different lawful authority. The jail's release or transfer entry should state the event and recorded destination when that field is public.
Transfer ends custody at this facility, but it is not a community release. Follow the receiving agency named in the Currituck record.
Confirm a Currituck Detention Release
The official county pages reviewed do not provide a current inmate roster, released-person archive, or recent-release feed. A missing web result is therefore not evidence that someone left custody. Start with the historical booking period and ask a question that distinguishes the event from a current “is this person there” check.
- Search NC SAVAN/VINELink by name or available ID and compare the reporting agency, facility, age, and status text.
- Call the Detention Center or Sheriff's Office with the full recorded name and approximate booking dates.
- Ask what event ended that booking, at what date and time, under what authority, and whether the person went to the community or another agency.
- Request the booking and release entry in writing when a durable answer is needed.
- Open the Currituck court case for the order, judgment, dismissal, or bond event, then follow NCDAC, BOP, or ICE only if the destination calls for it.
The broader Currituck County released inmate search explains how these custody systems fit together. NC SAVAN can provide a status or prospective alert, but the source record remains the best proof of exact release time and type. A court docket can establish the legal event without showing when jail staff completed physical processing.
Note: Record the date and time of every search because a status service may update after the jail's own custody event.
Currituck Detention Release Record
A focused records request is easier to process than a demand for every file connected to a name. Identify the specific custody episode and request fields that answer whether it ended in release or transfer. Ask the custodian to name the legal basis for any withheld field.
| Requested field | Reason it matters |
|---|---|
| Name, alias, and booking number | Links the response to the correct person and episode. |
| Booking date and time | Defines when local custody began. |
| Release date and time | Shows when Currituck processing ended. |
| Release authority or type | Separates bond, sentence completion, court action, and other grounds. |
| Court or case number | Connects the jail event to the filed judicial record. |
| Transfer destination | Identifies the next custodian when recorded and releasable. |
| Associated booking photo | Retrieves the image as its own requested record when available. |
North Carolina public-records law begins with a broad definition in G.S. 132-1 and access rules in G.S. 132-6. It does not make every part of a jail file public. Personal identifiers, juvenile information, medical material, security details, sealed or expunged matters, and confidential investigative information can require withholding or redaction.

Currituck Release Copy Fees
The county master fee schedule lists duplication rates, but it does not prove that a particular record or photograph is releasable. Ask for electronic delivery, a current estimate, and approval before chargeable work begins.
| Copy item | Published amount |
|---|---|
| One-sided public copy | $0.10 per page |
| Two-sided public copy | $0.15 |
| Color copy up to 8.5 by 14 inches | $0.25 per side |
| DVD or disc | $2 |
| Flash drive | $5 |
| Sheriff's certified copy | $1 |
Black-and-white Sheriff's copies are also listed at $0.10 single-sided and $0.15 duplex, with color at $0.25 per page. These amounts can change. A request should ask which rate applies and should not assume a search fee or a fixed charge for a booking photograph.
The official Currituck fee schedule shows the county source behind these copy amounts.
The captured schedule is a fee reference, not a custody-status screen or released-inmate list.
Currituck Court Release Orders
The Currituck court case explains the judicial event tied to release. Search the statewide eCourts Portal by defendant name or case number and narrow the result to Currituck County. Review the charges, events, disposition, and judgment. When exact terms matter, request the filed judgment, dismissal, bond order, release order, or later modification from the Clerk.
The Currituck County Courthouse is at 2801 Caratoke Highway, Currituck, NC 27929. Its main and Clerk number is 252-232-6200, with listed weekday hours from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. A court disposition does not always equal the exact physical exit time. Another hold can remain, or jail processing can continue after the order. Pair the filed document with the detention entry.
Currituck Releases to State Custody
Use NCDAC Offender Public Information only after a state commitment or supervision episode is involved. The official NCDAC gateway says OPI covers state prisoners, probationers, and parolees and excludes county-jail information. Search by offender number when possible. Otherwise, compare the full name, age information, conviction county, physical descriptors, and chronological record before selecting a match.
A state record can show an older release beside a newer prison or supervision episode. Read the current status and most recent dates. “Inactive,” “released,” or “discharged” must be interpreted in context. A projected release date can change and is not proof that departure occurred. After the date passes, confirm the actual release field and use NC SAVAN or NCDAC records for the state event.
If the Currituck record instead identifies federal or immigration transfer, do not use NCDAC as a substitute. BOP covers federal sentences. ICE ODLS covers immigration detention. No federal prison, state prison, or dedicated ICE facility was established inside Currituck County.
Currituck Detention Center Profile
The county describes the Detention Center as a small facility with capacity for 62 people. It houses men and women, can accommodate juvenile offenders, and mainly holds people before trial. Some people serve post-trial sentences there. Staff are also responsible for transport to court and to other facilities as needed.
Capacity does not reveal annual bookings, releases, average stay, or turnover. No official local release statistics were found, so none can be derived from the bed count. The mixed pretrial, post-trial, and transport roles explain why a person can leave the facility for several different reasons.
The detention center record remains the local source even when a later state or court record exists. Matching the booking number, case number, and event dates keeps those separate histories tied to the correct episode.
Why Currituck Releases Need Context
The facility's small size and transport role make the phrase “off the roster” especially ambiguous. Bond release, sentence completion, court-authorized departure, state commitment, and transfer are all plausible. Only the event line and destination resolve which one occurred. This is the distinctive local reason to request the historical episode rather than rely on a generic inmate search.
Currituck's Sheriff's jurisdiction also spans more than 540 square miles, divided into three areas separated by county or state lines. Much of the county is water. Phone and electronic records channels can avoid a long or misdirected visit, especially while the county's official pages disagree on the detention center street address.
Does staff giving a bondsman number confirm release? No. Detention staff can provide contact numbers, but the magistrate or court controls bond terms. The jail entry confirms when processing actually ended.
Currituck Funds at Release
Currituck County meeting records describe inmate custodial funds as money held at intake or supplied for commissary. A remaining balance is released to the person at discharge or transferred to another facility when custody moves. That detail reinforces why the destination matters: money following the person to a receiving institution points to transfer, not community release.
The source does not establish a procedure for clothing, identification, or other physical property. Ask the Detention Center directly about the identified booking episode and current pickup rules. Do not infer a property counter, release door, waiting area, or routine time from the custodial-funds description.
