Monroe Records Contacts

Local Jail and Records

The Monroe County Sheriff's Office handles local jail bookings and release records. Its Records Custodian responds to open-records requests and gives an estimated completion time and cost within three business days. If no response arrives in that period, call the records number.

Property inquiries use (478) 994-7052 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For an open-records request, do not prepay. O.C.G.A. 50-18-71 allows a research fee after the first 15 minutes, and any issued invoice must be paid before release of the documents.

State Prison Records

Georgia Department of Corrections records cover sentenced state prisoners, including people housed at Burruss Correctional Training Center. Use the statewide offender search first, then request written verification when needed.

Burruss can be reached at (478) 994-7512, but statewide GDC records are the proper source for sentence, release, discharge, and facility-assignment verification.

Parole and Supervision

The State Board of Pardons and Paroles decides parole and operates inmate, TPM, and parolee lookups. Its call center is (404) 656-4661 at 2 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive SE, Suite 430, Atlanta, GA 30334. Community reporting is handled by the Georgia Department of Community Supervision.
