Check James Crabtree Release Records

James Crabtree Release Paths

James Crabtree Correctional Center is an Oklahoma Department of Corrections prison. Its release route is not the Alfalfa County jail register. A person may discharge at sentence completion, leave on parole, move to another ODOC placement, or be handed to a county, federal, out-of-state, or immigration custodian under a detainer.

Community release may include written instructions for parole, probation, suspended time, or post-imprisonment supervision. A detainer is a request or legal basis for another agency to take custody. That means the end of JCCC confinement does not always mean the person is free of confinement elsewhere. The ODOC disposition and receiving-agency record must be read together.

Confirm a James Crabtree Release

The public offender lookup is an initial lead. It warns that its information is abbreviated and has had data-source issues. The exact current public labels for a released result were not verified in the research, so an unclear screen should never replace a formal ODOC record. Use this order:

1. Open the official ODOC offender lookup and accept its disclaimer.
2. Search the exact name and DOC number when known.
3. Compare identity, photograph, facility, status, and supervision details that actually appear.
4. Do not assume a missing record means release or that a future date is final.
5. Request the Certificate of Release, discharge notice, final disposition, termination summary, or CRC discharge entry for firm proof.
6. Check OK VINE and the assigned probation and parole office when supervision follows.

The Alfalfa County released inmate search paths explain when a sheriff, court, federal, or immigration record must be added to this ODOC check.

James Crabtree Release Documents

ODOC keeps several records that can establish the event more clearly than a search result. On discharge, staff enter “discharge” and the date on both sides of the CRC. On parole, the CRC records “paroled,” the parole date, credits accrued, and the calculated current release date. The Certificate of Release is signed by the facility or parole-region head, signed and dated by the person, and witnessed by staff.

Reporting instructions are especially important. They identify the next required contact and distinguish release to supervision from an unconditional discharge.

James Crabtree Records Contact

Facility staff can address institution-specific questions, while ODOC Legal Services routes open-record requests. Closed Records is the historical route after custody and supervision end. ODOC policy says ordinary copies cost $0.25 per page. Request only records tied to the identified person and event.

The ODOC Legal Services page provides the official records-request route. Name the record sought, give the DOC number, and identify the estimated release or parole period.

James Crabtree Projected Release Dates

A projected release date is a sentence calculation, not proof that the gate event occurred. ODOC adds the imposed incarceration term to the reception date, accounts for lawful consecutive terms, and updates days remaining at least monthly. Time served and earned, lost, restored, achievement, meritorious, jail-time, and other credits can change the result.

ODOC's current public FAQ says a particular inmate's release date is confidential unless the requester has a legitimate judicial or law-enforcement need. The inmate receives days remaining each month and can calculate a date or ask a correctional records officer or case manager. Public-facing material may use terms such as PRD, but it must not promise that an exact future date will appear in the lookup.

James Crabtree Historical Release Records

ODOC records remain active while the person is in custody or under agency supervision. After jurisdiction ends, the facility or supervision unit closes the file and sends it for digitization within 20 working days. Current ODOC policy states that inactive records are kept indefinitely in numerical order. That makes Closed Records a key route when the public offender interface changes or no longer displays enough detail.

A request should name the person, DOC number, JCCC, and the likely discharge or parole period. It can seek open portions of the Certificate of Release, CRC discharge or parole entry, release checkout sheet, reporting instructions, final disposition, time sheet, and termination summary. Legal materials may also include judgments, detainers, warrants, jail-time statements, parole certificates, and court orders that explain the route out of the institution.

Some material can be confidential, sealed, or subject to an expungement order. Ask ODOC to identify any withheld category and release the segregable public portion. An old public lookup screen is less reliable than the retained agency record when a precise release event matters.

James Crabtree Release Supervision

When a JCCC release includes parole, probation, suspended time, or post-imprisonment supervision, the Certificate of Release should include reporting directions. ODOC's live directory assigns Alfalfa County to Woodward P&P at 1104 Hillcrest, Woodward, with phone 580-254-1539. It also lists the Alva sub-office at 1856 E. Flynn St., Alva, with office phone 405-727-4357 and cell 580-383-0079.

Give the office the full name, birth date if known, and DOC number. Ask whether ODOC supervises the person and which office owns the case. The office may withhold confidential conditions or personal data. Parole docket and board-action questions instead belong to the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board. A supervision record confirms a legal status after custody, but it should not be used to infer the exact hour the person left JCCC.

James Crabtree Release to ICE

ODOC policy accounts for detainers at discharge. If immigration authorities receive the person, the ODOC release certificate proves the state custody event while ICE records address the next custody. Search the ICE Online Detainee Locator by A-number and country of birth or by exact biographical information.

ODLS is not a historical release archive. The Oklahoma City ICE office covers the state, but its current-custody and check-in channels do not replace ODOC's dated disposition. A missing locator result does not cancel an ODOC transfer record. County and federal detainers require the same two-record method: retain the ODOC disposition, then check the named receiving agency. This prevents a state discharge from being mislabeled as a return to the community.

JCCC Orange Alert Is Different

JCCC has a facility-specific Orange Alert. Texting JCCC to 77295 subscribes to escape or walkaway notices tied to the institution. That alert does not report routine discharge, parole, or sentence completion and should not replace OK VINE.

The official ODOC Orange Alert page shows the facility code and purpose.

James Crabtree Facility History

The official August 2025 JCCC fact sheet identifies a medium-security men's prison with a minimum-security unit and reports a population above 1,100. That number shows facility scale, not annual releases, and it should not be used to estimate how many people leave custody.

The Helena campus dates to 1904. It served as a high school, junior college, orphanage, and boys' training school before becoming a prison in 1982. The facility is named for former Ouachita Correctional Center warden James Crabtree. This history helps identify the institution, but the release custodian remains ODOC. A person held at JCCC will not appear in an Alfalfa County Jail release list merely because both facilities are inside the county.

The Alfalfa County Jail release route is therefore a separate sheriff-record path. The official county page currently identifies Gary Mast as sheriff, though officeholders should be verified when a request is sent. Geography alone does not place a JCCC offender in the county booking system.
