MPRSC Release Paths
Middle Peninsula Regional Security Center, commonly shortened to MPRSC, is the operative adult jail for King and Queen County. It is a regional facility in Saluda, not a jail run at the King and Queen sheriff’s office. A local defendant may leave after bond, dismissal, completion of a local sentence, or another court-approved action. The person may also shift into electronic incarceration or work release, which changes the form of custody without always ending legal control. Each outcome should be read from the release disposition.
Other departures are transfers. MPRSC specifically identifies movement to another jail, a psychiatric hospital, the Virginia Department of Corrections, or another named destination in its property procedures. A person who leaves the Saluda building for one of those destinations has not necessarily entered the community. The MPRSC release transaction should state the release type, authority, and destination when those fields exist. A dated court order can explain the legal basis, but it may not give the precise door-exit time.
| Departure | Meaning | Best follow-up |
|---|---|---|
| Bond or dismissal | Physical custody may end while the case or conditions continue | MPRSC record and court case |
| Time served | The local custodial term may be complete | Release entry and sentencing order |
| Alternative custody | Work release or electronic incarceration may continue | MPRSC program status and court approval |
| Transfer | Custody moves to another institution or agency | Release destination and receiving locator |
Confirm an MPRSC Release
The official Current Inmate Listing is a starting point, not a released-inmate archive. It displays current names and admission details. No official release date, release reason, booking photograph, or recent-release window was found in that public list. If a name appears, the person is shown in current custody. If it does not, the absence can reflect release, transfer, hospital movement, another exit, or a data issue.
Use a short evidence chain. It keeps the current list in its proper role and follows the person into the next system only when the record supports that move.
- Search the exact name and likely name variants on the MPRSC current list.
- Match the age, admit date, and charge context where available. Do not rely on a common name alone.
- Check the Virginia court case for bond, dismissal, sentence, or transfer-related orders.
- Ask MPRSC for the actual release date and time, release disposition, releasing authority, and destination.
- If the disposition names VADOC, another jail, ICE, or a federal agency, continue with that receiving system.
A local VINE custody-change event may add timely evidence. It remains an alert supplied from agency data, not the jail’s certified record. For a broader named-person path across county, state, court, and federal sources, use the King and Queen County released-inmate search.
MPRSC Release Records
The direct record route is MPRSC’s Freedom of Information Act contact. A request may be made by mail, fax, email, in person, or phone. Virginia does not require a special form or the words “FOIA,” though a written request makes the scope easier to track. Identify the person, date of birth, booking number if known, and approximate admission date. Ask for existing records rather than requiring staff to create a new report.

Request the admission date and time, actual release date and time, release type or disposition, releasing authority, and transfer destination or receiving agency if one exists. A booking photograph is a separate record and should be named expressly. The public notice uses a five-working-day initial response framework. A written practical-impossibility notice may add seven working days. Actual costs may apply, an advance estimate is available, and a deposit may be required when the estimate exceeds $200.
Virginia Code § 53.1-116 requires jailers to maintain an individual prisoner record and confinement information. It does not make every internal field public online. Exempt material may be withheld, so ask for segregable nonexempt portions and the statutory basis for any denial. No public MPRSC page gives a fixed retention term or flat photo fee.
Note: The county’s separate low-cost request policy should not be applied automatically to the independent regional jail authority.
MPRSC Custody Profile
MPRSC serves Essex, King and Queen, King William, Mathews, and Middlesex. The facility’s official overview and the Virginia jail directory confirm the regional role and Saluda location. The FY2024 state jail profile describes an indirect-supervision facility with female housing. Its figures are regional measures, not a King and Queen County release count.
The same profile reports 51,764 housed days and construction dates of 1973 and 1999. Housed days measure occupied days across the regional population. They cannot be converted into annual releases or assigned to King and Queen alone. The profile also lists zero federal contract beds, which means the page should not portray MPRSC as a federal detention program. A federal or immigration transfer remains possible in a specific case if the actual record names the receiving agency.
The official facility image below comes from the MPRSC home page, which identifies its regional service role and contact point.
The source reinforces that King and Queen adult custody searches belong with the regional center even though the building lies outside the county.
MPRSC Alternative Custody Releases
MPRSC offers court-dependent electronic incarceration and work release. These programs can let an approved participant leave the secure setting for structured activity or remain outside under controls. They should not be described as unconditional discharge. The court order, program record, and final release entry determine whether a person remains in custody, completes a segment, or ends the entire term.
The official program page documents the alternative-custody options available through MPRSC.
This program view helps explain why physical location alone does not settle whether a King and Queen participant has been discharged.
Published fees include a $100 electronic-incarceration administration charge plus $25 per day, and a $100 work-release administration charge plus $15 per day. MPRSC also lists $175 per week for GPS work-release tracking, a $7 travel FDP charge, and $25 for a replacement identification wristband. These are program or custody fees. The source does not establish a general post-release debt policy.
MPRSC Transfer Property Records
Property handling can provide an extra clue about the type of departure. The MPRSC property procedure allows an incarcerated person to name someone to collect identified property. The collector must present identification and sign during published lobby hours. When a person transfers to another jail, a psychiatric hospital, VADOC, or another destination, MPRSC uses a Disposition of Personal Property form.
The form-based procedure supports a transfer reading, but property pickup by itself is not proof of final community release.
The named collector has 30 days after contact before remaining property may be destroyed under policy. This detail is useful when reconstructing a transfer timeline. Still, it should be paired with the actual release disposition. A property form says where belongings were routed, while the custody record says which agency or status followed the Saluda departure.
MPRSC Weekend Release Status
Weekend service is another MPRSC-specific custody pattern. Under Virginia Code § 53.1-131.1, a court may allow eligible remaining time of 45 days or less to be served on weekends or other nonconsecutive days for good cause. MPRSC instructs participants to report at 6 p.m. Friday on successive weeks. Missing a segment requires court authorization, and a violation can produce a capias or conversion to continuous confinement.
The weekend confinement instructions show the reporting terms that control this limited form of sentence service.
Leaving after one weekend segment is not final discharge when another report date remains. MPRSC publishes no universal Sunday exit time, so none should be assumed.
- Release
- The end of a specific physical custody episode, with the next status shown by the disposition.
- Transfer
- Movement to another jail, hospital, VADOC, or agency while custody continues.
- Discharge
- Completion of the custodial or supervision authority identified in the governing record.
- Capias
- A court order directing that a person be taken into custody.
Note: Confirm the last required weekend segment with MPRSC and the court rather than treating each departure as sentence completion.
