Sherburne ICE Detention Release Paths

Sherburne County Jail houses ICE detainees in a county-owned building under federal detention arrangements. The Sheriff can document when physical custody at the jail ended and which agency received the person. ICE records address immigration detention status. Because those are different questions, the records should be read together.

Leaving the Elk River jail may mean transfer to another ICE facility, release on immigration bond, release under an agency program, action under an immigration judge’s order, removal from the United States, or transfer to another authority. Even an ICE system result that says “released” does not choose among all those outcomes. It only describes the detention status within that system and time window.

Sherburne ICE Release Lookup Window

Sherburne County’s official inmate-search page directs the public to the ICE Online Detainee Locator System, known as ODLS. The county says ODLS covers people currently detained by ICE and people released from ICE custody during the prior 60 days. That local statement makes ODLS the first online check after an ICE-related name leaves the county roster.

The window is limited. A past release outside it may not remain visible through the same route. People under 18 are not displayed, and a blank result can also stem from spelling, identity data, transfer, removal, or system scope. Search promptly and preserve the date checked. When ODLS is incomplete, use the ICE Detention Reporting and Information Line and the immigration case channel.

Note: The live Sherburne jail locator is current-custody oriented and has no published post-release retention period for an ICE booking.

Search Sherburne ICE Release Records

The ICE Online Detainee Locator offers two identity routes. Use the A-number and country of birth when both are known. Follow the form’s directions about any leading zero. Otherwise, search by exact first and last name, country of birth, and date of birth. Do not guess identity data to force a match.

1. Choose the A-number search when the nine-digit immigration identifier is available.
2. Use exact name, country of birth, and date of birth for the biographical search.
3. Compare the returned identity and facility details with the known Sherburne booking.
4. Record whether the result shows current detention, another location, or a qualifying recent release.
5. Call ICE DRIL when the result is absent or too vague for the needed confirmation.
6. Request the Sheriff’s transfer recipient and timestamp to connect the county departure to the ICE event.

ODLS is not a county booking archive, a criminal court record, or a full explanation of the immigration case. It should not be used to infer the reason for release when the result does not state it. The official case record and responsible agency supply the legal outcome.

Sherburne ICE Detainers and Release

An ICE detainer asks a jail to provide notice of an impending release and requests a hold of up to 48 hours so ICE can assume custody. That creates a crucial local distinction. Sherburne County may record a person as released from its authority while the person moves directly into ICE custody. The county release event is real, but it is not a community release.

The ICE detainer explanation supplies the federal meaning, while the Sherburne jail overview confirms the facility’s federal role. Obtain the Sheriff’s date, time, legal basis, and recipient agency. Then compare those fields with ODLS. Both pieces are needed before describing where the person went.

A detainer is not a conviction or an immigration-court decision. It is a custody request. Likewise, disappearance from the county roster is only a physical-placement clue. If ICE later reports a release, check the immigration case source to distinguish bond, agency action, a judge’s order, transfer, or removal.

Sherburne ICE Transfer Record Request

The Sheriff’s public record can establish the county side of the handoff. Under Minnesota Statutes § 13.82, public adult arrest data includes the date, time, and legal basis for release and for a transfer, along with the recipient agency. Ask specifically for the “release-to agency” or destination field. That wording separates a community release from an ICE transfer without seeking a private home address.

1. Identify the person by full legal name, date of birth, booking number, and a narrow date range.
2. Use the Sheriff Data Requests page, not an unrelated county contact.
3. Request booking time, release or transfer time, legal basis, disposition, and receiving agency.
4. Ask for existing public data rather than a new narrative or custom report.
5. Compare the response with ODLS and the immigration case record.

The Sheriff states that records staff will respond within 10 business days with the data or a readiness notice and estimated charge. Inspection of public data is free. Copies may carry authorized charges. A request can be narrowed to the public transfer fields without seeking private immigration, medical, victim, or investigative data.

Sherburne ICE Release Systems Compared

The correct system depends on which government exercised custody at the time. A person can pass through the same physical jail while appearing in very different legal records. Checking each system for its defined role prevents a transfer from being mistaken for release.

USMS also uses contract detention, but no general public USMS person locator was found. A person held at Sherburne on a federal writ may never have entered BOP custody. Use the federal docket and custodian, then check BOP only when sentencing or prison designation makes that route relevant.

Sherburne ICE Release Data Limits

Minnesota Chapter 13 governs the county record, while federal law and agency rules govern ICE data. Public status for the Sheriff’s release or transfer fields does not open a whole detention or immigration file. The county may withhold or redact private medical, juvenile, victim, address, or investigative data. ICE may require a different process for records beyond what ODLS displays.

Identity errors have serious consequences. Use the booking number and A-number when available, then compare name, date of birth, country of birth, and facility history. A blank result is not proof that detention never occurred. A public result also does not explain a court case, establish guilt, or show that another warrant or custodial authority is absent.

For the full set of county, court, DOC, VINE, BOP, and ICE release paths, consult the Sherburne County released inmate lookup. The path begins with the last known custodian and ends with the record that owns the actual event.

Sherburne ICE Detention Contact

ICE detention takes place inside the Sheriff-operated Sherburne County Jail at Elk River. A 2024 federal inspection states that ICE detention began in 1989 and operates under ERO St. Paul oversight. The inspection describes adult men and women at multiple custody levels held for more than 72 hours. These facts describe the federal detention function, not a separate jail building.

The 2024 ICE inspection confirms the operational setting. Documentary county release questions still go to Sheriff Records, while current or recent ICE status goes to ODLS or ICE DRIL.

Note: The Sheriff runs the building, but ICE remains the legal source for immigration detention status and qualifying recent ICE release results.
