Graceville Work Camp Release Paths
Graceville Work Camp is an FDC satellite under Jackson Correctional Institution. It is not the Jackson County Correctional Facility and does not use the county booking-release request as its main public path. A person may move from the camp back to Jackson CI, go to another FDC location, enter a community-release placement, leave prison for community supervision, or discharge from the state sentence. Each result has a different record meaning.
A location change inside FDC is continued state custody. The population detail may list a new institution while the same DC number continues. A prison release is stronger when the FDC release detail shows a Release Date that matches the final Date Out-Custody in incarceration history. If supervision begins that day, the prison term ended while a state-supervised community term started. That is not the same as unconditional discharge.
Search Graceville Work Camp Releases
FDC provides separate databases behind the Corrections Offender Network menu. The population database covers people currently in FDC prison. The release database covers people already released or scheduled for release. Supervised Population covers people under FDC community supervision, while the Absconder/Fugitive database has its own narrow status. Selecting the right database keeps an old camp location from being confused with current custody.
- Search the FDC Inmate Population database by the six-character DC number when possible.
- Open the detail and compare name, birth date, aliases, physical description, and photograph. Confirm whether Graceville Work Camp or another FDC site is listed.
- Run the same DC number through the FDC Inmate Release database.
- On a release detail, compare Release Date with the final Date Out-Custody and review any detainer or incarceration-history entry.
- Search Supervised Population for a same-day supervision begin date, current status, type, and office.
- If results conflict, contact FDC records with the DC number and the exact field or custody interval in question.
Name searches use prefix matching. Keep alias search selected if spelling or former names are uncertain. The photo option can limit or hide list thumbnails, but a photo alone does not establish present location. A common name is never enough. The DC number joins population, release, and supervision records even when a facility label changes.
Note: The release database updates nightly, while most population data update weekly except nightly release-date and location changes.
Two Graceville Florida Prison Names
Graceville Work Camp and Graceville Correctional Facility are distinct operations near Graceville. The work camp is the FDC satellite listed under Jackson Correctional Institution. Its address is 5230 Ezell Road, Graceville, FL 32440-4289. Graceville Correctional Facility has a different street number, a separate state-prison identity, and contractor operation under Florida authority. Similar names and close locations create a real Jackson County lookup trap.
Read the full institution name on the FDC detail before calling or filing a request. A record that says Graceville Correctional Facility should not be assigned to the work camp. A move from one FDC location to the other is a transfer within Florida prison custody unless the release detail proves otherwise. The DC number is the best bridge when a person has moved between institutions or old paperwork shortens the location name.
| Point | Graceville Work Camp | Graceville Correctional Facility |
|---|---|---|
| Role | Satellite of Jackson Correctional Institution | Contractor-operated Florida state prison |
| Address | 5230 Ezell Road | 5168 Ezell Road |
| Release authority | FDC statewide records | FDC statewide records |
| County jail record? | No | No |
Note: Always pair the full Graceville facility name with the DC number before describing a transfer, location, or release.
Graceville Work Camp Release Records
The public FDC release detail can show a name, DC number, photograph, identifying description, Release Date, aliases, prison sentence history, detainers, and incarceration history. Not every historical record contains every field. Read the page in time order. Current Prison Sentence History describes sentences in the state commitment, but it does not by itself prove the person remains confined. Incarceration History supplies the in-custody and out-custody intervals.
“Custody” on a release detail may describe the classification used while the person was confined. It is not always a live status label. The release-detail heading, Release Date, and last out-custody entry do the main verification work. A stated residence upon release, if present, is an intended or reported destination. It does not guarantee where the person lives now. A detainer can also explain why the next destination differs from the expected plan.
When the public detail is absent or unclear, use the FDC public-records route. Identify the full name, DC number, Graceville Work Camp, date range, and the exact requested records, such as release detail, incarceration history, transfer record, detainer information, or supervision history. Classification and Central Records lists 850-488-9859 for population and detail questions. Bureau of Admission and Release lists 850-488-9167 and dc.release@fdc.myflorida.com.
Graceville Work Camp Release Dates
An in-prison FDC detail labels its projection “Current Release Date.” Florida Statutes section 944.275 calls the underlying gain-time calculation a “tentative release date.” The display may show a date, “PENDING REVIEW,” or “TO BE SET.” It remains subject to lawful gain-time awards, restoration, forfeiture, disciplinary action, new or consecutive sentences, corrected jail credit, detainers, court orders, and data review.
For eligible offenses committed on or after October 1, 1995, section 944.275 can permit up to ten days per month of incentive gain-time, subject to restrictions. The same law prevents gain-time from producing release before 85 percent of the imposed sentence is served for that framework. Physical pre-sentence jail credit counted by the court applies to the floor. Older offense dates and listed serious offenses can follow different limits.
A tentative date should not be presented as a promise. After the expected date, return to the release database and find the actual Release Date and out-custody history. The Jackson County projected release date path explains how state projection fields differ from county and federal calculations.
After Graceville Work Camp Release
Leaving prison may begin FDC community supervision. Search the same DC number in Supervised Population and compare the Supervision Begin Date with the prison Release Date. The detail may show Current Status, Supervision Type, Scheduled Termination Date, current office, aliases, and supervision history. Use the agency’s exact label. Conditional release, probation, community control, and parole are not synonyms.
“Active” means active community supervision. “Active Suspense” can mean the person is temporarily unavailable for direct supervision, including custody at a jail or another facility, while an officer monitors the case. “Absconder” means the person is unavailable and a warrant has issued. Neither status means discharge. For a Jackson County supervision record, FDC office 141 in Marianna is at 2863 Green Street, Marianna, FL 32448, phone 850-482-9524.
Florida Statewide VINE can provide custody-change alerts for FDC, county jails, and DJJ. Search at VINELink or call 1-877-846-3435. An alert may report release, transfer, community-release placement, return to custody, or another agency-fed event. It is fast notice, not the durable release record. Confirm any alert through the FDC detail.
Note: A supervision begin date matching the prison release date can show a transition from confinement, not complete sentence discharge.
Graceville Work Camp Contact Route
Current FDC material lists Graceville Work Camp under Jackson Correctional Institution. The work camp address is specific, but the research source does not publish a separate direct telephone number for it. Use the parent institution contact and state records offices without implying that the Jackson County jail controls the camp.

FDC satellite of Jackson Correctional Institution
Parent institution phone: 850-569-5260
The Jackson Correctional Institution listing is the current parent source. For a formal state record, FDC’s custodian mailing address is 501 South Calhoun Street, Tallahassee, FL 32399, with public-record assistance at 850-717-9774. Ask the parent or records unit to route a facility-specific question, and include the full camp name rather than the shorter word “Graceville.”
Confirm Graceville Work Camp Departure
The strongest confirmation is a matching set of FDC records. The population history shows the prior custody and location. The release detail supplies the actual Release Date and last out-custody interval. A supervision detail, when present, explains the term that began afterward. If the person instead appears at Jackson CI or another institution, the event was a transfer.
Florida VINE can add an alert, but the source-agency record controls. A Jackson County court or jail record may explain an earlier transfer into state custody; it does not replace the later FDC release record. The broader Jackson County released-inmate records search helps separate county, state, federal, and juvenile systems. Preserve each agency’s date and event wording when records update at different times.
