No Harrison County 24-Hour Release Feed
No distinct official Harrison County, Ohio 24-hour released-inmate feed was found in the county and sheriff channels reviewed as of July 31, 2026. The official product is the Current Inmates landing page and its weekly PDF. It has no rolling-window selector, release-only filter, or same-day timestamp. It is therefore not possible to read the official page as a list of everyone released in the last 24 hours.
A completed same-day check starts with Harrison County Jail. Ask whether the person left custody, the actual event date and time, the event type, and any receiving agency. Then compare the answer with the court record. For a state prisoner, use the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction offender search rather than the county report. A federal case requires the federal locator and docket, not the Harrison roster.
Check Harrison County Releases Today
The fastest defensible workflow moves from the live local source to the keeper of the release record, then to the court that authorized or documented the result. Keep the exact label used by each source. In particular, do not silently turn the report’s “Out Date” into an actual departure time.
- Open the official Harrison Current Inmates page and use the weekly PDF as a current-custody lead.
- Call Harrison County Jail at 740-942-2197. Give the full name and an approximate arrest or booking date, then ask whether the event was release or transfer.
- Request the booking or commitment and discharge record. Ask for the actual date and time, disposition, authority, destination, and any booking number.
- Check County Court CaseLook for a misdemeanor or traffic matter. For a felony, use the Clerk of Courts bridge to the Common Pleas record.
- Review any Ohio VINE alert as an early signal, then confirm its wording with the custodian and court.
For a search centered on one named person across county, state, and federal systems, the Harrison County released-inmate search path explains how to choose the right source.
Harrison County Release Report Fields
The weekly report offers useful clues, but it omits several facts needed to prove a same-day release. Its Bond column may contain a charge, warrant language, bond amount, or serving-time notation. Read the five public fields on their own terms.
| Field | What it establishes |
|---|---|
| Name | The listed person, without a booking number or date of birth for stronger matching. |
| Arrest Date | The arrest date shown for the current entry, not the release time. |
| Bond | Bond, charge, sentence, warrant, or serving-time text as entered in the report. |
| Out Date | An undefined field that may be future-dated or remain populated while the row is still current. |
| Housing | The custody location or placement clue, which may point outside Cadiz. |
The PDF does not supply a release-only flag, actual release time, release method, booking number, or photograph. Harrison County publishes no online retention period for a released archive, because no such archive was found. No official Harrison County, Ohio sheriff inmate or release mobile app was found either.
The official current-inmates page is shown below so readers can recognize the county source before opening its weekly report.
The official landing source leads to a present-custody PDF. Its layout does not convert the report into a same-day release feed.
Why Harrison County Out Date Needs Proof
Harrison County’s only roster product is the weekly Current Inmates PDF, yet it includes both Out Date and Housing. Observed rows may show an Out Date in the future, and a row may remain on the current report with that field populated. The source does not define whether the value is scheduled, projected, or actual for a particular entry.
Ask Harrison County Jail what the field means in that person’s record and request the actual release or transfer timestamp. A dated nonofficial copy may help identify an older row, but it is only a lead. Comparing two weekly copies cannot safely create a 24-hour list because an absent row does not reveal why the person left the document.
Note: Preserve the label “Out Date” until the jail identifies the field and confirms the event recorded for that person.
Harrison County Release or Transfer
A community release and a custody transfer both remove a person from one physical location, but they have different meanings. Harrison County states that it uses Jefferson County Jail and Carroll County Jail for contract housing. It also identifies the Correctional Reception Center and Ohio Reformatory for Women as state intake paths after a prison commitment. A person who leaves Cadiz for any of those destinations is still in custody.
| Observed event | Next verification |
|---|---|
| Still on weekly report | Ask the jail to confirm current location and whether the entry has been updated. |
| Gone from weekly report | Ask for release or transfer type, actual time, destination, and authority. |
| Jefferson or Carroll housing | Confirm status with Harrison and the receiving county jail. |
| ODRC commitment | Match the person in ODRC by number, name, and Harrison County of Commitment. |
| Community release | Confirm bond, recognizance, dismissal, sentence completion, or other authority in the proper docket. |
Bond or recognizance can end jail custody while the case continues. Dismissal, sentence completion, judicial release, and transfer are also distinct outcomes. The event record and court entry should agree before “released today” is treated as confirmed.
Harrison County Pretrial Release Records
Harrison Common Pleas Community Corrections has a named Pre-trial Release Program. It analyzes defendant information and supervises people released during the pretrial phase. That status is not the same as serving a sentence to completion, dismissal of a case, parole, or final discharge.
Use the Common Pleas journal entry to confirm the release order and conditions, then contact the pretrial officer or Community Corrections office when the public record does not resolve supervision. The local office is at 100 West Market Street, second floor, Cadiz, and its phone is 740-942-8510. A release from physical custody can thus coexist with an active felony case and local supervision.
Request Harrison County Release Records
Harrison County publishes no sheriff-specific request form, fee schedule, fixed turnaround, or jail-record retention period online. Send a focused request to the office that created the jail record. The jail is at 114 Court Street, Cadiz, OH 43907, with phone 740-942-2197 and fax 740-942-3295. The Sheriff’s Office contact page also lists Sheriff@harrisoncountyohio.gov.
Include the full name and spelling variants, approximate arrest or booking date, and a case or booking number if known. Ask for the public booking or commitment and discharge record, actual departure date and time, release disposition, authorizing order, and transfer or housing destination. Request an electronic copy, ask for the actual cost before copying, and ask the office to identify the legal basis for any withheld part. Ohio public-record law generally does not require a requester to state a purpose.
County Court CaseLook covers misdemeanor and traffic cases. Its disclaimer says posting can lag judicial action by at least 24 hours and sometimes longer, and verified information requires a request to or visit with the court. Common Pleas felony matters run through the Clerk of Courts. A blank search or unchanged status is not proof that no release occurred.
Getting Home After a Harrison County Release
Harrison County Public Transit operates demand-response service from 536 North Main Street in Cadiz. The county lists 740-942-1369 and toll-free 1-866-576-3391. No official source promises jail pickup or same-day availability, and no official release-time, exit-location, property-return, weekend, holiday, or automatic-transport procedure was found.
Confirm the person’s exit point and time with Harrison County Jail before planning a ride, then call transit ahead to ask what service is available. This matters because the release may occur from Cadiz, a contract jail, a state destination, or another placement. A confirmed community release still does not establish that public transit will be at the gate.
Can Local News Confirm Harrison Releases?
The county’s local-news directory identifies the Harrison News-Herald as a Saturday weekly with more frequent online publication. Case-specific sheriff or court reporting may provide context about an arrest, order, or image, but news coverage is selective. It cannot function as a complete Harrison County 24-hour release list.
Use a news item as a pointer to the named agency or docket. Confirm the custody event through Harrison County Jail, the correct court, ODRC, or another actual custodian. If a broader time span is useful, the Harrison County 72-Hour Release List guide explains the three-day verification workflow without manufacturing a list from weekly snapshots.
