No Pulaski 72-Hour Feed
The official Pulaski County, Illinois pages provide no rolling 72-hour release list, three-day archive, or recent-release selector. They publish no field inventory, update schedule, weekend cadence, retention period, or photo policy for such a feed. No official Pulaski sheriff app was verified. A reader should not be shown an empty table that implies a county service exists.
The Pulaski County Detention Center page confirms the proper Ullin facility and gives access to its official services. It does not list releases.
This source is useful for reaching the correct Illinois custodian. The three-day release history must come from an existing jail record, if maintained, rather than from a public feed.
Check Pulaski Three-Day Releases
A 72-hour inquiry differs from a same-day call. It asks for a bounded group of custody events, so the start, end, time zone, and meaning of “release” must be clear. Pulaski County Detention Center holds people for more than one legal authority. A departure could be a release into the community, a neighboring-county return, an IDOC commitment, or a federal transfer.
- Choose exact beginning and ending timestamps in Central Time. Avoid a vague phrase such as “over the weekend.”
- Ask the Pulaski County Detention Center whether an existing release log or report covers that range.
- Request actual release time, release type, committing authority, and destination for each responsive entry.
- Compare a named person’s court case with the jail event. A court order explains authority but not the hour processing ended.
- Use Illinois VINE for a named custody-change lead, then verify the result with the reporting custodian.
- Follow any transfer into the receiving system. Search IDOC only for a state commitment or parole/MSR status.
A short same-day check belongs on the Pulaski County 24-hour release page. The three-day process is designed for a date range and should not reuse a single-person phone answer as though it were a full list.
Pulaski 72-Hour Record Fields
No official feed means no public online field set can be promised. These are the fields supported by the research as useful parts of a narrow request for existing booking and release records. The destination field is vital in this multi-jurisdictional jail.
| Field to request | Why it matters across three days |
|---|---|
| Name and booking number | Separates people with similar names and distinct jail stays. |
| Booking or admission timestamp | Identifies the custody episode tied to the departure. |
| Actual release timestamp | Places the event inside or outside the exact request range. |
| Release type | Distinguishes pretrial release, time served, dismissal, sentence completion, and transfer. |
| Committing authority | Shows which county or federal authority controlled the matter. |
| Destination or receiving custodian | Prevents a transfer from being counted as entry into the community. |
| Releasing order or authority | Links the physical event to a court or agency action. |
Ask for the existing report “if maintained.” Illinois FOIA does not force a public body to create a new spreadsheet or conduct analysis. If no aggregate log exists, narrow the request to a named person, booking, or case rather than demanding a custom three-day list.
Note: An entry marked transfer records the end of Pulaski custody, but the person may still be held by IDOC, another county, or USMS.
Pulaski Weekend Release Timing
A three-day range can catch events that a calendar-day check misses, especially when a weekend, holiday, late order, or delayed records review falls between searches. Yet no Pulaski source publishes a weekend release schedule. No official policy says releases occur at a fixed hour, that a holiday changes the day, or that every weekend date moves to Friday.
Define the range with timestamps instead of labels. For example, a Friday-to-Monday inquiry should state the exact Friday start and Monday end. Ask whether timestamps represent the moment the release was authorized, entered into software, or physically completed. The jail record should establish the last event, while the court entry provides legal context.
Processing may continue after an order is entered. Staff may need to verify identity, another charge, a warrant, a hold, or a receiving authority. For that reason, a Sunday court event and a Monday release timestamp need not conflict. They answer different questions.
Request Pulaski Three-Day Records
Direct a jail-record request to the Pulaski County Detention Center FOIA Officer, 20 Justice Drive, Ullin, IL 62992. The official instructions also list gjones@pulaskicountyil.gov and fax 618-845-3533. They permit mail, email, fax, or hand delivery. Because the instruction PDF is older, verify the email before sending sensitive identifying details.
State the exact date range and request the existing release log or report, if maintained. Specify desired fields and ask the jail to include transfers only if the result labels them and identifies the destination. Ask for electronic copies, nonexempt portions after any redaction, and a statutory citation for withholding. The jail publishes no Pulaski-specific fee table, so request a cost estimate before reproduction.
Illinois FOIA generally uses a five-business-day response period for noncommercial requests, with a written extension allowed by law. That timing makes FOIA valuable for a documented weekend history, not a live alert. A call to 618-845-3512 can address an urgent named-person status question, but a phone response is not the same as a complete three-day log.
Match Pulaski Release Orders
The Pulaski Circuit Clerk’s record can show a pretrial order, dismissal, plea, judgment, sentence, custody credit, probation term, warrant, remand, or later modification. Each event can explain why custody changed. None automatically proves the detention center’s physical release time.
The official Circuit Clerk page supplies Pulaski County’s court-record access and links the county’s Judici route.
Use the case number to match the order to the right person and stay. Then compare it with the release timestamp and destination kept by the detention center. Certified court copies may be needed when the exact legal effect matters.
A released person will often be absent from a current jail view. Someone transferred may also be absent. Illinois VINE may flag a custody change for a named record where the county feed participates, but state material does not guarantee permanent retention or complete Pulaski coverage. Preserve an alert and verify it at its source.
VINE works best when registration occurs while the matching person is still in custody. Official Illinois material supports notices for release, transfer, escape, and other changes, yet the service is not a three-day archive. If a notice arrived during the requested range, retain its timestamp and reporting agency. Then ask the detention center whether that event was physical release, a transfer, or another status change. The originating record resolves the event type and destination.
Trace Pulaski Custody Transfers
Pulaski County Detention Center’s contract roles make destination checks essential. County materials name Pulaski County, Alexander County, and the U.S. Marshals Service. A state inspection also documents Union County contract custody. A person returned to another county or moved under federal authority has not been released into the community merely because the Ullin jail no longer holds them.
| Departure shown by Pulaski | Next verification source |
|---|---|
| Community release on a Pulaski case | Jail release record plus Pulaski court order. |
| Transfer to IDOC | IDOC Individual in Custody Search and state release records. |
| Return to another county | Receiving county jail and its court record. |
| USMS transfer | Federal docket; use BOP only after a sentenced BOP commitment. |
For one named person whose last custodian is not clear, use the Pulaski County released inmate lookup to sort county, state, and federal routes. A current roster search alone cannot reconstruct a three-day release history.
Avoid Wrong-State Pulaski Data
The most serious data-quality trap is a prominent similarly named website that connects to Kentucky JailTracker. It is not an Illinois source. Pulaski counties in Indiana and Arkansas can also surface in results. Do not link, quote, or count those releases.
The official Pulaski County Sheriff’s Department page is a safe Illinois reference point when checking available records links.
Confirm Ullin, Illinois, the 618 area code, and the pulaskicountyil.net domain. If Pulaski County later adds a vendor roster, verify the official link and test the exact date controls, fields, lag statement, photos, and retention before calling it a 72-hour feed.
Note: The absence of an online name is not proof of release, transfer, discharge, or a lack of prior Pulaski County custody.
