State Farm Release Outcomes
State Farm Correctional Center holds sentenced people under Virginia Department of Corrections authority. Release from the prison can mean discharge when the state term ends, parole for a person who qualifies under Virginia law, or placement in post-release supervision. A transfer can move the person to another VADOC prison, work center, hospital setting, or outside custodian. It is not a community release.
Searchers often confuse physical absence with legal release. The controlling question is whether VADOC ended secure custody or merely changed the location. A supervisee has left a prison setting but remains under conditions. A discharged person has completed the VADOC obligation shown by the record, although a separate jurisdiction may still hold authority.

| Still incarcerated | Matched VADOC locator location |
| Transferred | New VADOC location or receiving-agency record |
| Released to supervision | Locator category and signed conditions |
| Discharged | Completed release event and VADOC documents |
Check a State Farm Release
Use the VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator, not Pamunkey’s current jail list. Search by the seven-digit DOC ID whenever possible. A name search requires at least the first three letters of the first name and the full last name. Location, race, gender, and age can narrow the results.
- Search and match the DOC ID or full set of identifiers.
- Read whether the record identifies an inmate, supervisee, or another VADOC category.
- Check the current location before treating absence from State Farm as release.
- Read any release date as VADOC labels it and note the date accessed.
- Confirm actual release through the signed order, conditions, or a specific records response.
The locator updates daily and carries an accuracy warning. A future release date is a current calculation. It can change due to sentence credits, discipline, jail credit, amended orders, detainers, or other events. No result is not proof that a person never served a VADOC term.
State Farm Release Documents
VADOC’s facility release process provides stronger evidence than an isolated locator screen. The person receives a notification-of-release letter and, where applicable, an Order of Release, Conditions of Probation, or Conditions of Parole. The applicable papers are signed and dated by the person and a staff witness.
VADOC states that discharge or parole occurs by 11:59 p.m. on the release date, weather permitting. A date visible during that day does not prove the person has exited. A court sentencing order identifies the legal sentence, while VADOC’s event identifies when the department carried out release. Use both when exact authority and timing matter.
If the calculation is disputed, the incarcerated person can write to VADOC’s Correspondence Unit and Court & Legal Section. Do not estimate a stranger’s date by subtracting a simple percentage.
State Farm Records Route
The official VADOC Facilities and Offices directory lists State Farm Correctional Center separately from State Farm Work Center. Use that live directory for current institution details. For a historical release, address a focused records inquiry to the department.
Virginia Department of CorrectionsP.O. Box 26963
Richmond, VA 23261
804-674-3000
docmail@vadoc.virginia.gov
Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Provide full name, seven-digit DOC ID, State Farm Correctional Center, the date range, and the exact custody or release fields needed. Ask for admission and custody dates, release or discharge date and type, release letter or order if releasable, and the next authority when a transfer occurred. Exclude medical, victim, security, presentence, and other protected material.
A narrow request helps staff locate one event and segregate exempt fields. If the concern is time computation, use the Court & Legal Section address at P.O. Box 26963, 6900 Atmore Drive, Richmond, VA 23261.
State Farm and Goochland Records
Official VADOC listings use the State Farm postal designation and Powhatan County facility context. The institution is geographically near Goochland, which makes it relevant to local searches, but it must not be called the Goochland county jail. Pamunkey Regional Jail is the adult regional jail that officially houses Goochland detainees.
This local inversion changes the evidence path. A Goochland arrest may begin at Pamunkey and later become state-responsible custody. Once VADOC receives the person, the DOC ID, locator, time-computation record, and state release documents control. A Pamunkey card from the earlier booking does not confirm a later State Farm release.
The Goochland County release search explains how to follow a receiving agency after transfer. Keep the jail inmate ID, VADOC DOC ID, and court case number separate so the records can be reconciled without a same-name error.
State Farm Release Notifications
VADOC state-custody notifications use NAAVI. Eligible registered victims can receive notices about advanced release, actual release, transfer, work release, escape and recapture, parole interview, or parole decision. Virginia Jail VINE serves local and regional jails, so a Pamunkey registration does not automatically carry into State Farm custody.
Use the VADOC notification page or call Victim Services at 804-674-3243 or 800-560-4292. Register under the current eligibility rules. When an alert arrives, read the event type and facility. A transfer notification cannot be relabeled as release.
- Parole
- Discretionary release for a statutorily eligible prisoner, followed by conditions.
- Post-release supervision
- Community oversight imposed as part of a sentence.
- Discharge
- Completion of the correctional obligation identified in the record.
- Transfer
- Movement to a different custodian or VADOC location.
State Farm Supervision Check
A person released from State Farm may remain visible in the VADOC locator as a supervisee. That is evidence of release from secure prison only when identifiers and dates match. The person’s conditions name the assigned office and reporting duties. A third party can ask the live office for public confirmation, but staff may limit case details.
Goochland falls within VADOC Probation and Parole District 9, named Charlottesville. The district covers several localities. State Farm Correctional Center is not the supervision office. Use the official directory for the latest contact information rather than relying on an old saved address.
Absence from the locator, a missed appointment, or a rumor does not establish that supervision ended or that a warrant exists. Confirm completion through a discharge record and any warrant through the issuing court or law enforcement.
State Farm Locator Fields
The official VADOC search screen shows why a DOC ID is the most precise key. The locator source also displays its required name fields, filters, disclaimer, and update warning.
The screen supports a careful match, but the department’s release documents remain the better final proof of an actual State Farm release.
State Farm Time Computation
Release-date computation depends on the governing sentence and earned-credit system. Virginia’s ESC-1 category limits specified offenses to no more than 4.5 credits per 30 days served. Eligible ESC-2 sentences can earn at different levels, up to 15 days per 30 days, subject to offense limits, conduct, program participation, and effective-date rules. The phrase “serves 85 percent” is not a safe formula for every State Farm prisoner.
VADOC lists jail credit, sentence type, active sentence length, credit class, discipline, and other events among the factors used. Consecutive and concurrent terms, amended orders, detainers, and forfeited credits can change the date. Parole eligibility is a separate question and a parole grant can still precede the completed facility release process.
Use the official Time Computation page to understand the categories, but use the individual computation record and court orders for a specific case. Preserve the date of any locator capture. When the displayed date changes, ask VADOC to reconcile the record rather than selecting an older screen.
State Farm Evidence Chain
A reliable State Farm release account links several records. The sentencing order establishes the active term. The locator shows VADOC’s current public location and date. The time-computation record explains credits and adjustments. The release letter, order, or signed conditions confirm the completed event and any supervision that follows.
Each identifier must stay with its system. A Goochland court number connects the judicial case; a Pamunkey inmate ID identifies a regional-jail episode; and the seven-digit DOC ID identifies VADOC custody. Reconcile those records only when the name and dates also match. This prevents a prior local booking from being mistaken for the later state-prison release.
State Farm Discharge Check
When a record shows post-release supervision, confirm the District 9 office through VADOC’s live directory. The supervisee’s signed conditions identify the assigned officer and duties. State Farm Correctional Center is not the reporting office, and a prison release does not by itself establish that supervision has ended. A later discharge record is needed for that conclusion. If the public status and signed papers differ, record both dates and ask VADOC to reconcile them.
