Why This Reference Exists
Minnesota government data can be public while still being spread across several agencies. The Murray County Sheriff's Office maintains the local admission and release event. Lyon County may hold the physical custody record when Murray boards a prisoner there. The Minnesota Department of Corrections operates a statewide offender search for people who remain under DOC jurisdiction, including some who have left prison for supervised release. Court records explain bond, dismissal, sentence, probation, and later case events.
This site brings those distinct routes together without treating them as one database. It explains how to distinguish release from transfer, how to read a projected date without calling it an actual exit, and where an existing public record may be requested. Federal prison releases belong in the Bureau of Prisons system, while immigration custody uses the ICE locator. Each source answers a limited question, so a result should be matched with the agency that created it.

Limits of This Private Site
Murray County Released Inmates is privately run. It is not connected with Murray County, the Murray County Sheriff's Office, Lyon County Jail, the Minnesota Department of Corrections, a court, or any local, state, or federal government agency. It cannot release or transfer a person, confirm current custody, retrieve an official record, or change an agency entry.
- We cannot post bond, schedule a visit, place a jail call, or send funds for another person.
- We cannot tell a jail or corrections agency when to release or move someone.
- We cannot provide legal advice or interpret a court order for a specific case.
- We cannot guarantee that an address, fee, phone number, office hour, status, or date remains current.
Only the government office maintaining the custody or corrections record can provide an official status or release confirmation. Search results and reference material cannot replace that agency response.
Search Partners
Some pages contain search tools supplied by third-party providers. Those companies control their own records, terms, prices, and results. A tool may lead to a paid service or subscription, and Murray County Released Inmates may receive a referral fee when a visitor completes a paid signup. That support helps keep the reference material available without charge. A referral does not give this site control over the provider, its coverage, its pricing, or the accuracy of what it returns.
