Tehama County Released Inmates
A release from Tehama County custody means the person is no longer held in the Tehama County Jail for that booking. That can happen through bond, a court order, time served, sentence completion, a transfer to another agency, or a move into supervision after custody. The Tehama Sheriff's public path is the Current Inmates page and the linked current listing. It is a live custody source. It should not be treated as a public archive of people who have already left the jail.
That distinction drives the whole search. If a person still appears on the roster, the visible fields can show name, book date, charge, bail, and scheduled release date. If the person is gone, that may support release, but it can also mean transfer, a different agency hold, a spelling issue, or a data delay. A complete Tehama County released inmates lookup pairs the roster check with the Sheriff's Records Division, Tehama Superior Court, California VINE, CDCR CIRIS, and federal or immigration locators when the facts point outside the county jail.
A released person usually drops from Tehama's current roster; the release record, court case, VINE alert, or receiving agency confirms what happened next.
Tehama County Release Types
The same online absence can hide very different release paths. Tehama's custody manual describes release paperwork, identity checks, warrant checks, property return, and daily release logs. The court record explains whether the release came from bail, dismissal, sentencing, credits, probation, or a later order. State or federal locators matter only when the person left local custody for another system.
| Release type | What it means | Where to check next |
|---|---|---|
| Bond or self-bail | Money or bond conditions allowed release while the court case continued. | Tehama jail record, Superior Court case, and bail/bond entries. |
| Time served or end of term | The local sentence or custody time was complete after any allowed credits. | Release log, court sentence, custody credits, and Records Division request. |
| Court-ordered release | A judge ordered release, dismissal, own-recognizance release, or a custody-status change. | Tehama Superior Court Criminal Division and court portals. |
| State transfer | The person left the county jail for CDCR after sentencing or transfer processing. | CDCR CIRIS, BPH records, parole, or PRCS. |
| Agency or detainer pickup | Another jurisdiction, warrant, federal agency, or immigration authority became the custody holder. | Receiving agency, BOP, ICE locator, PACER, or the court record. |
Tehama County Release Record Fields
A Tehama County release record is not just one screen. It can include the booking record, release authorization, unit-sheet updates, release log, daily census log, account records, property receipt, court order, and supervision instructions. Some fields may be public. Others may be redacted or withheld under California law. The useful request is narrow: ask for the booking and release facts needed to confirm the person, the date, the authority for release, and the destination if the person was transferred.
| Field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Booking number or file number | Ties the release to the correct jail booking and avoids name collisions. |
| Booking and arrest dates | Shows when the custody event began and helps match the court case. |
| Release date and time | Confirms when local custody ended for that booking. |
| Release reason or type | Explains bond, court order, time served, transfer, or another release authority. |
| Charges at release | Shows the charges listed when the jail processed the release. |
| Transfer destination | Identifies CDCR, another county, federal custody, or another agency when applicable. |
| Property and account records | Documents returned property, signed receipt, and account balance handling. |
Obtain Tehama County Release Records
The formal county route is the Tehama County Sheriff's Records Division. The division states that it maintains records of calls for service, investigations, booking logs, contacts, and transactions, and processes requests for reports and information. The county's public-records request form says most records may be inspected with minimal delay, the department may require up to ten days for copying requested records, and copies cost $0.10 per page unless an exception applies.
- Identify the person with full name, date of birth if known, booking date, arrest date, or booking number.
- Ask for records sufficient to confirm release date, release time, release reason, listed charges, bail or bond status, and transfer destination if any.
- Submit the request to the Tehama Sheriff's Records Division by its application process, email, fax, phone, or in-person records channel.
- If a portion is withheld, ask for the exemption citation and release of any reasonably separable public information.
- Use the court case or CDCR record when the release was caused by sentencing, dismissal, transfer, parole, PRCS, or another court action.

Sealed, juvenile, confidential, medical, mental-health, safety-sensitive, or investigatory material may be withheld or redacted. California's clean-record process can affect public access to case information, but it does not make every underlying agency record vanish from all systems. For a specific legal effect, use the court order and official agency response.
Tehama County Release Record Law
California's public-records framework is now codified in Government Code Division 10, Title 1, beginning at section 7920.000. For Tehama County release records, that means jail logs, booking information, release records, and booking photos may be public in part, while exemptions can apply. Law-enforcement records are not all open. Agencies may redact details tied to an investigation, privacy, juveniles, sealed cases, victims, witnesses, medical information, facility safety, or other protected interests.
Several other statutes shape release facts. Penal Code section 4019 can govern local custody conduct credits. Penal Code section 2933.1 limits worktime credit for listed violent felonies and is the basis for the common 85 percent explanation in that class. Penal Code section 3451 controls many PRCS releases from state prison to county supervision. Government Code sections 7282.5 and 7284.6 limit immigration transfers from local custody. None of those statutes should be used as a one-size answer. They point to the agency or court record that controls the person's actual release.
Tehama Jail Release Time
Tehama's custody manual gives a local answer to a common release-time question. End-of-term and court-ordered releases are scheduled at staggered times on the release date so the release area does not become congested. Staff escort a scheduled release to the transfer and release area 30 minutes before the scheduled release time. The manual also says inmates are not released or moved during count, shift change, or when movement would create a safety threat or disrupt facility operations.
That is why a scheduled release date on the current roster should be treated as a planning field, not a guarantee of the exact walk-out moment. Staff still check identity, paperwork, warrants, detention orders, agency pickups, good-time calculations, property, account status, medical or mental-health release issues, and supervision-reporting instructions. If the timing matters for a ride, court process, or family coordination, confirm with the jail or the Sheriff's Records Division rather than relying only on the roster date.
Property After Tehama Release
The release manual also answers practical questions about leaving custody. Personal property is returned during release, the released person signs a receipt, and discrepancies are reported to the Shift Supervisor. Inmate account handling is tied to a daily scheduled-release roster. The cashier adjusts the account to zero and releases money after the account report is endorsed. Those details are useful because a release record may include more than date and charge fields. It may also leave a property and account trail.
Transportation is handled more narrowly in the public record. The manual says released people may be allowed a reasonable number of telephone calls to arrange transportation when needed. No public rule was found for a family waiting area, rideshare pickup point, or public transit handoff. Because the jail operates in Red Bluff and release times are staggered, the most reliable plan is to confirm timing with the facility before traveling.
Tehama Bond Release Records
Bond-out and self-bail are separate from a time-served release. Tehama's custody manual says inmates arranging bail may be permitted a reasonable time, at the Shift Supervisor's discretion, to make telephone calls before placement in general population. The manual also describes an authorization process for self-bail from an inmate account, with a signed transaction document and receipt. A person can leave custody after bail conditions are met while the criminal case remains active.
That is where the court record matters. Tehama Superior Court's self-service search and calendar portal can help explain later hearings, disposition, sentence, release order, probation grant, dismissal, warrant status, and custody credits. The court record often survives after the jail roster no longer lists the person. It is a key source for Tehama County released inmates whose roster entry has disappeared.
Find Released Tehama County Inmates
The best search starts by deciding which custody system was involved. Tehama County has a county jail, a juvenile facility that is not a public adult release path, and two CDCR conservation camps inside county borders. A person physically in Tehama County may still be in state custody. A person booked at the Tehama County Jail may have left by local release, state transfer, federal pickup, or another agency hold. The search path should follow the custody path.
- Check the Sheriff's current roster to see whether the person is still presented as in custody.
- If the person is gone, check the Tehama Superior Court case for release orders, dismissal, sentence, probation, custody credits, or transfer.
- Search California VINE for custody status and release or transfer notification.
- Use CDCR CIRIS when the person was sentenced to state prison, assigned to Salt Creek, assigned to Ishi, or transferred to CDCR.
- Contact the Sheriff's Records Division when exact release date, release time, release reason, or transfer destination matters.
- Use BOP, ICE, U.S. Marshals context, or PACER only when federal or immigration facts point there.
For a named-person search, the home path should do more than ask whether the person is listed today. Same-day roster changes are covered more narrowly on the 24-Hour Releases page, while state and jail date labels are handled on the Release Date Lookup page.
CDCR Search for Tehama Releases
California's state prison route is CDCR CIRIS. It matters for Tehama when a Tehama Superior Court case sent the person to CDCR, when the person was assigned to Salt Creek Conservation Camp #7 or Ishi Conservation Camp #18, or when the jail record says the person transferred to state prison. CIRIS is not a Tehama jail release archive. It is the state custody search route.
The CDCR CIRIS search page is the official state search starting point for California incarcerated records.
Use the CDCR number when known, then compare name, age, commitment county, admission date, and current location before relying on a result.
| CIRIS field | How it helps |
|---|---|
| CDCR number | Best identifier for avoiding name-match errors. |
| Current location | Shows state custody site or status displayed by the state system. |
| Commitment county | Helps connect a state case to Tehama Superior Court. |
| Admission date | Helps distinguish a jail transfer from a later state-custody event. |
| BPH dates and outcomes | Points to parole-hearing status for eligible state prisoners. |
| Release or eligibility date labels | May include EPRD, MEPD, NPED, YPED, or EPED depending on sentence and eligibility. |
Tehama County Recent Releases
Tehama did not have a separate official 24-hour, 48-hour, 72-hour, or recent-release feed in the research. The official public web source found was the current-inmates listing. The fields visible from that source include inmate name, book date, charge, bail, and scheduled release date. Detail pages may show richer booking information when available. No official public retention window was found for how long a released person remains visible online.
That absence is a fact, not a reason to guess. If a person no longer appears on the current roster, confirm through VINE, the court case, and the Sheriff's Records Division before deciding whether the person bonded out, completed time, moved to another agency, transferred to CDCR, or was held under a different name. Citizen RIMS exists for crime and activity information, but no Tehama jail mobile app with a release list or mugshot feed was confirmed.
The Tehama Sheriff's Current Inmates page is the county's public custody entry point.
Because the page is a current-custody entry point, a missing name should be followed by records, court, VINE, or agency confirmation.
Tehama Post-Release Supervision
Post-release supervision in Tehama splits between CDCR DAPO parole and Tehama County Probation. State parole covers people released from prison who remain under CDCR parole categories. PRCS is different. CDCR says eligible prison releases are discharged from CDCR and supervised by a county agency under Penal Code section 3451. Tehama Probation's AB 109 page says its unit supervises PRCS and Mandatory Supervision cases.
The local reentry layer is concrete. The Day Reporting Center and WREP are identified as a cooperative Sheriff and Probation program at 780 Antelope Boulevard in Red Bluff. The CDCR Red Bluff parole office is listed at 10 Gilmore Road, Suite C, phone 530-529-7700. For the detailed split between parole, probation, PRCS, and mandatory supervision, use the Post-Release Supervision page.
Tehama VINE and Federal Releases
California VINE is the custody-status and notification channel for jail and state custody changes. It is not a full booking archive, but it can show custody status and allow notification registration for release or transfer events. CDCR victim-services material notes that county jail status may be tracked through VINE and that transfer to CDCR can move notification into CDCR systems. A VINE result should still be reconciled with court or agency records when an exact release reason matters.
Federal release paths are separate. The BOP inmate locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to present and can display a released or not-in-BOP-custody status. ICE's Online Detainee Locator System is for current ICE custody and some recent CBP custody, not a Tehama County jail release list. U.S. Marshals custody is usually checked through court records, the holding agency, or PACER rather than a public release roster.
Tehama Released vs Custody Lookup
Released and still-in-custody searches use different sources. A live roster answers who is currently held. A release record answers what happened at the end of a booking. A state offender search answers state-prison custody or release status. Federal locators answer federal custody. Mixing them can lead to a wrong conclusion.
| Question | Best source | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Is the person in Tehama County Jail now? | Sheriff current-inmates roster | Current custody, not a release archive. |
| When and why did local custody end? | Sheriff Records Division and release paperwork | May require a public-records request and redactions. |
| Did the court order release or probation? | Tehama Superior Court criminal case | Online data may change and may not show every document. |
| Was the person sent to CDCR? | CDCR CIRIS and BPH records | State custody only, not a county jail roster. |
| Was this a federal sentence? | BOP locator or PACER | Does not confirm local jail release reason. |
Tehama Release or ICE Transfer
A person can be released from county criminal custody without simply walking out to the community. Tehama's custody manual includes an immigration-transfer policy tied to California law. It says members shall not transfer an individual to immigration authorities unless defined conditions exist, such as a judicial warrant, a probable-cause determination, a qualifying conviction under Government Code section 7282.5(a), or current California Sex and Arson Registry status.
That detail helps with a common release puzzle. If a person disappears from the current roster, the next step is not to assume deportation, jail release, or another agency pickup. Check the court case, VINE, the Sheriff's Records Division, and ICE only when the facts support an immigration path. Government Code section 7284.6 also shapes local cooperation limits. The release record or receiving agency is the better source than rumor.
Tehama County Detention Facilities
Tehama's facility map is unusual because it includes a county jail and two CDCR conservation camps. The Tehama County Jail is the adult local jail. Salt Creek Conservation Camp #7 and Ishi Conservation Camp #18 are state custody sites operated by CDCR with CAL FIRE, so their release route is CDCR CIRIS, BPH, parole, or PRCS. The juvenile detention facility is included in the map, but juvenile release records are not a public adult released-inmate path.
- Tehama County Jail - local adult jail releases, records requests, court checks, VINE, and supervision routing.
- Tehama County Juvenile Detention Facility - youth custody information through juvenile court, probation, counsel, or authorized parties.
- Salt Creek Conservation Camp #7 - CDCR conservation camp releases through the state offender search and state supervision channels.
- Ishi Conservation Camp #18 - CDCR conservation camp releases through CIRIS, BPH, DAPO, or PRCS.
Question: Does a Tehama address make a person a county jail inmate? No. Salt Creek and Ishi are physically in Tehama County, but they are CDCR facilities. Their release records belong to the state custody system.
