Release and Records Contacts

For a Hancock County jail release, start with the Hancock County Sheriff's Office. Sheriff Tomyln Primus's office and the detention facility list the following public contact details:

Hancock County Detention Center
67 Spring Street
Sparta, GA 31087
Phone: (706) 444-6471
Fax: (706) 444-1218
Hours: Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., except holidays

The correct destination depends on the record or status sought:

  • For a released county-jail detainee or release record, use the home search and records path, then ask the Sheriff's Office for the official document.
  • For supervision after release, use Probation & Parole. The DCS Milledgeville Field Office serves Hancock County at 2930 Heritage Place, Milledgeville, GA 31061, (478) 452-0152, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
  • For very recent county releases, review Jail Releases: 24 Hours. Hancock County does not publish a distinct official daily release feed, so direct confirmation is still needed.
  • For timing or alerts, compare Projected Release with VINELink Inmate Search.
  • For a state prisoner, use GDC Find an Offender. Written verification goes to Inmate Records and Information, P.O. Box 1529, Forsyth, GA 31029.
  • For a criminal court record, contact the Hancock County Superior Court Clerk, 12630 Broad Street, Sparta, GA 31087, (706) 444-6644.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the facility pages for the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator. Those systems do not confirm an ordinary Hancock County jail release.
