When someone is arrested in Florida, local law enforcement fills out initial paperwork called a RAP sheet containing the offender's name, address, physical description, and crime details. Florida inmate records are created in this way. As the suspect moves through the justice system, things like their hearing, trial, and sentencing all get recorded into the computerized filing system. After that, when anything happens in the inmates life, such as a move to a new facility, the record is updated. The Florida Department of Corrections is the entity in charge of inmate records, and they keep them online in a searchable database, making it easy for anyone to perform a Florida inmate search.
The Florida corrections system is extensive, with a lot of different types of facilities and programs. Depending on where the inmate is incarcerated, the process for finding them may vary slightly. In many cases, all facilities and programs that are overseen by the Florida Department of Corrections will be easy to search using the same method. When searching for other inmates such as those in federal prison or county jail, the process will be different, and the resources may change. When performing an official Florida inmate search, always contact the state DOC to find an inmate. To find Florida inmate records for personal reasons, try the Infotracer search tool.

Florida has 143 facilities spread over the state. The Florida Department of Corrections oversees and manages them all. The system includes 50 state prisons, seven private prisons, various work release centers and camps, reentry programs, two road prisons, and one forestry camp.

All the facilities have generous educational programs, substance abuse treatment programs, stress and anger management training, and religious services.

Florida takes recidivism very seriously. Therefore, they have numerous work camps, release centers, and facilities designed to ease an inmate back into society before releasing them. The state also employs an extensive supervision program through parole and probation. They have 130 designated check-in facilities and supervise more than 166,000 people. Some of these offenders are pre-trial or on probation at the request of the court. Other inmates will simply be released and go back to family and friends.
Inmates are paroled and released early when they behave well in prison. Once the parole board is confident the inmate does not pose a danger to others, an inmate may be released under this supervision program. Florida has an extensive parole program with 130 facilities where parolees can check-in with their parole officer and receive assistance with getting a job, finding stable housing and integrating back into society. Those inmates with substance abuse issues may also receive special treatment and help.

When a first-time offender or someone who commits a non-serious crime, is tried for their offenses, a judge can sentence probation rather than prison. They are free to resume normal life but must be supervised closely for several months or years. Part of this supervision means checking in regularly with their probation officer. They must comply with all the court’s stipulations, or they will go to jail or prison for the remainder of their sentence.
