Point Comfort Release Record Owners
Point Comfort Police Department is a municipal arresting agency. The official sources reviewed for this project did not identify a separate public Point Comfort jail roster or recent-release database. For an arrestee booked into the county jail, the Calhoun Adult Detention Center's Released mode supplies the strongest local release evidence.
That evidence can include the release date and time, time in jail, confining agency, how released, release reason, charges, bond data, court type, and docket number. If the county record shows Point Comfort as Arresting Agency but Calhoun as Confining Agency, the sheriff maintained the custody record. A missing municipal roster is then expected, not a gap to fill with an unofficial source.
When no Calhoun booking exists, ask Point Comfort Police Department for the short-hold or custody record and identify the court that received the case. The court record can outlast any brief agency custody entry.
Check Point Comfort Police Releases
Begin with the county system because it expressly separates Current and Released modes. A person who has already left custody may not remain in Current. The Released detail, rather than absence from Current, gives affirmative information about what ended the booking.
- Follow the official inmate-system link from the Calhoun Adult Detention Center page.
- Select Released and search by name, charge description, or a number-of-days window that fits the event.
- Open the detail and compare Name ID, admit and release times, arresting agency, charging agency, and confining agency.
- Copy the docket number and exact “How Released” and “Release Reason” entries. Do not paraphrase them into a court result.
- If no county record exists, contact Point Comfort and the appropriate court for the municipal custody and case records.
The Calhoun County released inmates home page gives the full local lookup and request sequence for a named person.
Point Comfort Agency Field Guide
The county detail's agency and case fields are especially useful for a municipal arrest. They direct each question to its actual record owner.
| Field | Question it answers |
|---|---|
| Arresting Agency | Did Point Comfort Police Department make the arrest? |
| Charging Agency | Which agency is tied to the charge shown in the booking? |
| Confining Agency | Which custodian held the person and recorded the release? |
| Admit and release time | When did the local custody episode begin and end? |
| How Released | Was the custody path described as street release, transfer, or another entry? |
| Release Reason | What operational reason did the jail record state? |
| Court and docket | Where can the judicial case be followed? |
“To Bond” means the jail hold ended on bond. It does not mean dismissal or acquittal. Likewise, time served may finish confinement while fees, supervision, or other court terms remain. Read the case docket for the legal disposition.
Point Comfort Records Contacts
No separate Point Comfort release-office address, phone, hours, or detention facility was verified in the research. Use the official county law-enforcement directory for current municipal routing. Send Calhoun jail record questions to the detention center, not to the agency solely because it made the arrest.
Confirmed Release Routes
Point Comfort agency listing: Calhoun law-enforcement directory
County custodian: Calhoun County Adult Detention Center
302 W. Live Oak, Port Lavaca, TX 77979
Phone: 361-553-4475
Frame a request around an existing record. Ask for the municipal custody log if no county booking occurred. For county confinement, ask for the booking/release sheet, release date and time, release mechanism or reason, and receiving agency if a transfer occurred. Include a full name, approximate dates, and any Name ID, docket number, or booking identifier.
Texas public-information law can require redaction or allow withholding based on the record and applicable exception. A fee schedule linked by the sheriff is not proof that one fixed amount applies to every request. Ask the custodian for a cost estimate when appropriate.
Note: Use the live official directory for municipal contact details rather than relying on an unverified release-desk listing.
Point Comfort Court Release Evidence
Search the Calhoun criminal and civil portal after identifying the docket. The County Court at Law page says a partial name can be entered with an asterisk in Last Name, First Name format. Exact docket details are preferable because names collide.
The chronological case history may show a bond order, plea, dismissal, judgment, sentence, jail credit, probation, modification, revocation, or final discharge. Those court actions have meanings that a jail release label cannot supply. A released booking confirms the custody event, while the signed order or judgment explains the case outcome.
County Court at Law and the County Clerk handle matters within their misdemeanor jurisdiction. Felony records route through the District Clerk and district court. If a short Point Comfort hold generated a municipal case elsewhere, ask the police department for the filing court.
Point Comfort Custody Transfers
A transfer must be followed to the receiving system. If Calhoun sends a sentenced person to TDCJ, the person has left the county jail but remains incarcerated. TDCJ's public search covers current state prisoners. TDCJ IVSS, Parole Division, Board information, and records channels address later parole, mandatory supervision, or discharge.
Federal custody follows another route. The U.S. Marshals Service handles federal pretrial and transport matters in the Southern District of Texas but offers no broad public released-prisoner locator. Use the federal docket and custodian for pretrial release. The BOP locator applies to federal prison records after 1982.
Immigration custody is also separate. A county event can end with release to ICE rather than return to Point Comfort. Ask Calhoun to identify the receiving agency and then check the federal immigration channel.
ICE Status After Point Comfort
Research Section 19 assigns the immigration-detainer issue to facility pages. A Point Comfort arrest can lead to a Calhoun booking, followed by transfer from sheriff custody to ICE. Those are distinct records. A later release from ICE has its own date and authority.
The ICE Online Detainee Locator searches by nine-digit A-number and country of birth, or exact name and birth data. ICE materials state that some recently released cases may appear for 60 days, yet the locator focuses on present custody and may omit or delay results. A no-result does not prove that ICE never held the person.
If the county detail suggests a transfer, request the receiving agency. Contact ICE's Detention Reporting and Information Line when ODLS is unclear. Do not call the county transfer a community release, and do not use an ICE result to describe the separate criminal court outcome.
Note: County release, immigration transfer, and later ICE release are three possible events, each requiring its own confirmation.
Point Comfort Release Terms
Precise language keeps a custody search from overstating the facts.
- Arrest
- The act of taking a person into custody; it does not establish guilt.
- Booking
- The administrative record created when a custodian accepts a person.
- Bond release
- End of a jail hold under bond conditions while the criminal case can continue.
- Transfer
- Movement to another custodian rather than release into the community.
- Discharge
- Completion or formal end of the relevant sentence or supervision, which differs from leaving one jail.
No official source reviewed for Point Comfort supplied a fixed release hour, pickup door, property-return process, holding capacity, or a public municipal archive. Those facts should be requested from the agency for the specific event instead of inferred.
About Point Comfort Custody
Point Comfort Police Department belongs on the facility map because it is a locally relevant arrest and short-hold path. It must not be described as a county jail, state prison, federal facility, or verified long-term municipal detention center. The Calhoun Adult Detention Center remains the principal local custody source.
For a positive county result, preserve the jail's wording and connect the docket to the court record. For no county result, request Point Comfort's own record and ask where the person went. This two-branch process respects the researched limits while still giving a complete path.
The final question is always source-specific: did Point Comfort end a short hold, did Calhoun release or transfer a county booking, or did another custodian later act? One system cannot certify every stage.
