FCRJ Releases for Anderson Cases
Franklin County Regional Jail is a regional county jail in Frankfort. Anderson County ordinances establish a contracted-facility housing model, and official Anderson Fiscal Court material from July 2024 identified FCRJ as housing Anderson prisoners. That evidence is dated. It supports the operating path but does not prove a current headcount or an unchanging contract. Confirm the current executed housing agreement when that fact is material.
An Anderson defendant can leave FCRJ on bond, recognizance, time served, dismissal, court order, local sentence completion, probation, or another lawful authority. Those outcomes can place the person in the community. A transfer to KDOC, another county, a medical facility, federal authority, or another agency also ends the FCRJ booking, but custody may continue.
The release record resolves the difference. Ask for the exact release date and time, authority or type, and destination or receiving agency. The Anderson court order explains why a local release was authorized. A roster disappearance alone answers neither question.
| FCRJ departure | Likely next record |
|---|---|
| Bond or recognizance | FCRJ release sheet and Anderson bond order |
| Time served or dismissal | FCRJ timestamp and Anderson disposition |
| Probation | Anderson judgment and District 12 supervision record |
| KDOC transfer | KOOL and state custody record |
| Other-agency transfer | Destination field and receiving-agency record |
Confirm an FCRJ Release
The official FCRJ inmate list is a current-custody tool. Finding a matching record supports that the person remains listed at that update. No matching record is inconclusive because release, transfer, spelling, data correction, or lag can all remove or hide a match.
- Match the person with full booked name, birth date, booking number, approximate date, and Anderson case number.
- Check the current roster only to rule in a listed current custody record.
- Call FCRJ or request the existing booking and release record, including type, authority, time, and destination.
- Read the Anderson court file for bond, disposition, sentence, probation, dismissal, or release orders.
- Use VINELink for a specific-person alert and KOOL or Daily Releases when KDOC controlled the person.
No official Anderson/FCRJ jail-information mobile app was found. Results from similarly named Anderson counties in Tennessee and South Carolina do not apply to Anderson County, Kentucky.
Request FCRJ Release Records
Kentucky’s Open Records Act is the formal route when an online archive does not exist. Direct the request to the custodian that created or maintains the record. FCRJ is the starting point for its physical booking, movement, release, and booking-image records. The Anderson jailer or Fiscal Court handles county transport records, contract material, and county-retained administrative documents. The court clerk handles case orders.
Ask for an existing record, not a new narrative answer. Identify the full booked name, birth date or other identifier, booking number if known, and approximate Anderson arrest date. Request the admission date and time, release date and time, release authority or type, destination or transfer entry, charges and bond fields, and booking photograph to the extent maintained and releasable. Electronic delivery can be requested.
Under KRS 61.872, a qualifying requester may submit a written application by hand, mail, fax, or email. KRS 61.880 generally requires a written decision within five days, excluding weekends and legal holidays. That is a response deadline, not a guarantee of delivery in five days.
Ask for an advance cost estimate. KRS 61.874 generally limits ordinary noncommercial copying charges to reasonable actual reproduction costs, with other allowed costs possible. No universal FCRJ per-page fee was established. If material is withheld, request the nonexempt remainder and a record-specific legal explanation.

When the current contracted facility is unclear, the Anderson County jailer can identify the county transport path. The jailer’s courthouse office is separate from FCRJ and should not automatically be treated as custodian of a booking packet created at the regional jail.
Pair FCRJ and Anderson Records
Anderson County’s custody path crosses county lines. FCRJ records the booking, movement, and physical release in Franklin County. Anderson’s 53rd Circuit or District Court retains the criminal case. A sound result pairs the FCRJ timestamp and release type with the Anderson bond order, disposition, sentence, or probation order.
The official Anderson court contact and record route shows where the case-side evidence is requested.

This court source explains the legal authority, while the FCRJ record confirms when and where the custody movement occurred.
FCRJ Transfers Are Not Release
A local roster removal can reflect transfer into state custody. Search KOOL using a DOC or PID number and matching details. A prison or county-jail location means physical custody. A community office can mean parole, probation, mandatory reentry supervision, conditional discharge, or another displayed category. “Released To Other Agency” is a transition, not final discharge.
If a state-controlled release date is known, check the KDOC Daily Releases archive. A matching entry is strong evidence of departure from the listed state-controlled location, but it does not cover every FCRJ bond-out. For community supervision in Anderson County, District 12 in Frankfort is the responsible KDOC office.
VINELink may show both a local-jail record and a DOC record for the same person. Register on both valid matches. An FCRJ departure alert can occur while the state record continues because custody transferred.
FCRJ Online Record Limits
No official update cadence, post-release display period, or definitive online booking-photo policy was established in the captured sources. The current roster can stop displaying a record long before the underlying agency file is lawfully disposed of. Web display and records retention are separate questions.
A date-bounded request is therefore the reliable route for a past FCRJ release. Ask whether an existing release log or report is maintained for the interval, and request transfers separately from community releases when the existing fields permit. The Open Records Act does not require FCRJ to create a new custom list or analysis.
A booking photograph should be requested as an existing image tied to a named booking and date. Do not assume it remains online or that every image is open. If access is denied or redacted, ask for the cited statute and the nonexempt remainder.
Correct an FCRJ Record
FCRJ’s indexed disclaimer says the jail will reasonably attempt to verify and correct inmate-record errors after notice. A correction request should identify the exact field, booking, and claimed error. Attach or cite the supporting public document, such as an Anderson court order, rather than submitting a broad disagreement.
Preserve the request and response. Dynamic databases can change, and the date checked matters. If an agency denies access or gives an unsupported extension, Kentucky Attorney General open-records guidance explains how a requester may seek review.
For the complete person-search and release-record path, use Anderson County released inmates. The key is to identify the custodian, custody episode, timestamp, and meaning of each status before describing the outcome.
