What Exactly Constitutes an Inmate?
By definition an inmate or convict is a person that is held against their will and stripped of their liberty and rights by being placed in an prison, jail or correctional institution. The most common type of inmate is a person that is convicted of a felony or violating federal or state laws. Federal inmates are those who are incarcerated and convicted by a federal court and imprisoned in federal penitentiaries. All other inmates are those that are convicted and incarcerated by a state, county or city court and are jailed or imprisoned in non-federal facilities such as state prisons and jails.
Do Inmates Have Rights?
Yes they do … Inmates are protected from cruel and unusual punishment by the US Constitution’s 8th Amendment. This insures that an inmate has a right to a minimum standard of living that is determined by federal law. Basically inmates have the right to be treated fairly as determined by the state and federal government.
How can I lookup an inmates location?
You can lookup and locate an inmates location by contacting the Department of Corrections in the state where that inmate was incarcerated. If you don't know the state of the inmate's incarceration you can use the Federal Bureau of Prison inmate search tool. You can typically locate inmates by name, or correction number.Before Comments

My son called me from a Correction Facility, I think in Daytona, FL. His name is Jeremy Ascani. I missed the call & only got the voice-mail, it did not clearly say where. How can I find out why he is there & how long he will be there?
Patricia, you can try looking up this inmate using the Florida DOC inmate locator tool which is provided to the public for free
Hi. Is there a way to find an ex-inmate by first or middle name only? I have no idea which prison he served his time at. I do know where he lived when he was in sober living when I met him.
Maria, that’s not possible to lookup an inmate with only a first name
Thank you very much for letting me know. I figured just as much; It’s just my heart was holding onto hope that my mind was wrong. I, also, know that the odds that after 30 years, of not seeing each other, that the odds are not good that I could find him if I could even find out his last name.
Maria, you can also try this free government resource, BOP.gov. Perhaps they can be of assistance to you
Thank you. I will try there.

March 2020, my son, George Eugene Smith was incarcerated in Jefferson County jail. March 18th, 2020, I wanted to send him fines for his birthday and I have not been able to locate him at all anywhere. March 18th, 2020 I spoke with an individual at the Jefferson County jail and was advised he was not located there and they had no information as to where he would be now. I have tried to check the state inmate locator and I have tried the federal inmate locator and I still cannot find any information about him. When did he leave Jefferson County jail no info available? I am concerned because I know some of the inmates died from the COV ID – 9 recently and so your mind takes you there, I would like to know what\’s going on.
Linda, unfortunately we don’t have any information on this person either. You should keep trying to contact the state and federal institutions as sometimes their information is delayed and we get the information after they do typically.
