All types of law enforcement agents create inmate records in Indiana. When someone is arrested by local police or Sheriff's Office, a RAP sheet is filled out with the suspect’s name, address, physical description, and crime details. After that everything that happens in the inmate's life is documented and added into the file. This documentation becomes the inmate's permanent record and follows them through the prison system. The Indiana Department of Correction is the government agency in charge of maintaining and storing these records. Indiana inmate records are kept online in a centralized database, making it easy for anyone to perform an Indiana inmate search.

Inmates who are serving less than a two-year sentence will go back home to family and friends after being released from prison. Any inmate with a sentence of more than two years is eligible to participate in the Community Transitional Program aimed at helping them reenter society smoothly and avoid recidivism. The program helps inmates get jobs; they are moved to a low-security facility with supervision and are encouraged to set up permanent housing arrangements and reconnect with family and friends before being released.
Parole in Indiana is a privilege given to inmates who have served with good behavior and are released before their full sentence is fulfilled. They are let out of prison early with strict supervision and rules. These inmates must check-in regularly with a parole officer and follow other guidelines set by the parole board. If they fail to meet any of these regulations, they will go back to prison for the remainder of their term.

For first-time or low-risk offenders, a judge has the option of sentencing them to probation rather than sending them to prison. The offender may be free to live life but has to comply with some court-ordered rules. These rules always include being supervised by a probation officer who will check-in regularly to assess the offender's progress. The court often sets goals of gainful employment, stable living arrangements, and other action items for the offender to complete. If they violate any of the rules, they will immediately be sent to prison.
