Check Lon Evans Releases

To find someone released from Lon Evans Correction Center, use the centralized Tarrant County Sheriff custody record rather than looking for a separate Lon Evans archive. This maximum-security building is a custody unit within the county jail system. Leaving it may mean an internal move, court transport, transfer to another custodian, or release to the community. A current roster check can establish whether TCSO still reports custody. The booking-specific book-out entry is needed to confirm the actual Tarrant County release result and date.

Lon Evans Release Outcomes

Lon Evans Correction Center holds people within the Tarrant County Sheriff's Office system, but it does not operate a distinct public release ledger. Every resident entered through the county's centralized booking process. The useful record follows that booking number and county identification number even if custody assignments changed several times.

A departure can end in the community after bond, time served, or a court order. It can also end in another jail, TDCJ, federal custody, or immigration custody. Transfer closes one TCSO custody entry but does not mean the person is free. Ask for the actual book-out time, release disposition, and disclosed receiving agency. Those fields clarify what happened after the person left the Corrections Center ledger.

Key distinction: removal from the live roster is only a clue. A Sheriff book-out record or Letter of Incarceration supplies durable custody evidence.

Verify a Lon Evans Release

The official TCSO Inmate Search accepts a last name, first name, county identification number, race, and sex. Its result shows identity fields and an "In Custody?" value. It is useful for determining whether TCSO currently reports the person, but it does not provide a historical release date, release reason, or a verified destination.

Use the search in this order:

  1. Search the exact name and try the county identification number when known.
  2. Record the booking number and dates from reliable paperwork instead of relying on a screen capture alone.
  3. If the name is absent, request the booking-specific book-in and book-out transaction from Sheriff Records.
  4. When the disposition is transfer, continue with the named receiving agency's system.
  5. Check the court judgment or bond order when legal authority for the departure also matters.

The full county search and release-record path is explained on the Tarrant County released inmates search. That path is especially useful when the last custodian is unclear. Court proof is split by case type: the County Clerk handles Class A and B misdemeanor records, while the District Clerk handles felony records.


Lon Evans Booking Records

The TCSO public-records page routes detailed booking requests. A narrow request should identify the full name, date of birth or county identification number, booking number, and a short date range. Ask for public portions of the book-in and book-out timestamps, actual release date and time, release disposition, transfer destination if public, and the booking photograph only if it is needed.

TCSO_Records@tarrantcountytx.gov
Generally 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Requests may be filed through the county's JustFOIA route, mailed or delivered, or sent by ordinary unencrypted email. TCSO states that encrypted email will not be opened. Request public and redacted portions rather than demanding a broad compilation. Texas law allows exceptions for protected information, and no official source reviewed promises a fixed completion date or a specific retention period for every release record.

A former inmate seeking a simple statement of personal jail dates may use the Letter of Incarceration process. The released person ordinarily must appear at Sheriff Records with valid state photo identification. Published hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with arrival by 4:50 p.m. A friend or family member generally cannot obtain that personal letter for someone already released.


Bond and Physical Book-Out

The Corrections Center has a Bond Desk that accepts bonds around the clock. Bond activity is not the same as physical release. Authorization may be followed by verification, paperwork, return of property, another hold, or transport work. A person can remain on the roster after a bond is posted, and the bond report by itself does not prove the person walked out.

Personal-bond paperwork should identify the next court location, date, and time. Keep that paperwork with the release record because it helps connect the custody event to the pending case. When a family member needs an operational update, call the jail information line rather than estimating a release hour. The official research did not establish a standard public pickup time, waiting area, rideshare point, or weekend procedure.

Note: The secured garage mentioned in jail history handles operations and is not published as a family pickup location.


Lon Evans Contact Details

Questions about present Lon Evans custody go through the jail-system line. Historical proof goes to TCSO Records because Lon Evans does not maintain a separate public release archive.

Lon Evans Correction Center

600 W. Weatherford
Fort Worth, Texas
Jail-system information: 817-884-3000
Records requests: TCSO Records Division

The Corrections Center is the public anchor for a TCSO detention system that reports about 5,000 beds across five facilities. That system count does not include municipal jails, FMC Fort Worth, or the Fort Worth Transitional Center. A Fort Worth Police arrest can end before county transfer, so identify the arresting agency before assuming there must be a TCSO booking.


Lon Evans Building History

Tarrant County jail history identifies Lon Evans as a five-story, maximum-security building certified in October 2012. The county reports 207,700 square feet and LEED Gold status. Its kitchen serves the county jail facilities, further showing that the building functions as one part of a shared detention operation.

Lon Evans can appear as the custody unit on a document, yet the central TCSO booking remains the controlling record. A move from Lon Evans to Green Bay is an internal transfer, not a community release. Only the final TCSO disposition closes the booking.


ICE Transfers from Lon Evans

Tarrant County participates in the federal 287(g) program, and an ICE detainer can change the meaning of "released from county jail." According to ICE detainer information, the request asks a jail for advance notice and may seek custody for up to 48 additional hours. A TCSO book-out can therefore mark transfer to immigration custody rather than arrival in the community.

When the release disposition points to ICE, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System. Search by A-number and country of birth, or by exact name and country, with date of birth when available. The locator excludes some cases, including people under 18, and can lag. ICE says some recently released people may remain searchable for up to 60 days. No result alone does not settle the custody question.

Note: A transfer record proves departure from TCSO, while the receiving agency establishes what happened next.
