Tallassee Release County Check
Tallassee is partly in Tallapoosa County and partly in Elmore County. That boundary is the central fact for release research. A Tallassee Police Department arrest can be a Tallapoosa County matter, but it can also involve another county or a municipal process. A person who says "released in Tallassee" may mean released after a citation, released by municipal handling, released from Tallapoosa County Jail, released from another county jail, or transferred to another agency.
Do not assume a Tallapoosa County Jail record unless the person was booked there or the case was filed in Tallapoosa County. The county facility map treats Tallassee Police as a municipal jurisdiction contact with a local records role. If the matter entered county jail custody in Dadeville, the Sheriff's jail and court record can confirm the release. If the matter stayed local or was filed elsewhere, the Tallapoosa County jail record may not exist for that event.
Confirm Tallassee Police Release
The first confirmation step is not a search site. It is a jurisdiction check. Ask where the arrest or citation occurred, which agency made the arrest, which county received the filing, and whether the person was booked into Tallapoosa County Jail. If the answer is yes, release confirmation moves to the Tallapoosa County Sheriff's jail and records channel. If the answer is no, identify the municipal court, other county jail, or police records office that handled the event.
For Tallapoosa County bookings, use the same county jail method used for other local arrests. Provide full name, date of birth, booking date, and case number if known. Ask whether the person was released, bonded, transferred, held for another agency, or moved to ADOC. For a local Tallassee process without a county booking, ask the police department or municipal court how to obtain the incident, citation, or case record. For another county filing, use that county's jail and court channels.
- Confirm the arresting agency and whether Tallassee Police made the arrest.
- Confirm whether the case was filed in Tallapoosa County, Elmore County, municipal court, or another forum.
- Ask which jail, if any, accepted the person after the police contact.
- Use Tallapoosa County Jail only when the person was booked there or the Tallapoosa court record controls release.
- Follow ADOC, ABPP, federal, ICE, or another county only when the records identify that next system.
For a broader county lookup, the Tallapoosa County released inmates path explains how jail records, court records, state corrections, supervision, and federal holds fit together. For Tallassee, the extra step is deciding whether Tallapoosa County is the correct county at all.
Tallassee Police Contact
The county research lists a Tallassee office at 3 Freeman Ave in Tallassee, Alabama. Because the page-specific research did not provide a confirmed police dispatch number or office-hour schedule for Tallassee, the contact card should stay limited to the sourced address and the practical release purpose. A records caller should ask how Tallassee Police routes incident, citation, arrest, and release-related requests and whether the record belongs to a city, county, or court office.
Tallassee Police Department
3 Freeman Ave
Tallassee, AL 36078
Phone: Confirm with the official city or police directory before relying on a number
Purpose: Municipal police records, arrest routing, and county-of-filing confirmation
When calling or writing, use specific questions. Ask whether the person was arrested by Tallassee Police, cited and released, transported to a county jail, or released through a local court process. Ask for the incident number or case number if one exists. If staff says the person was taken to Tallapoosa County Jail, then contact the Sheriff's jail line. If staff says another county handled the detention or filing, use that county's jail and court records instead.
About Tallassee Police Records
Tallassee Police Department is a municipal law-enforcement contact for a city that is partly in Tallapoosa County. It should not be treated as a published Tallapoosa County Jail roster or a state corrections locator. A police record may explain an arrest, traffic stop, citation, complaint, or transport decision. A jail release record, by contrast, is created by the jail that held the person. A court record can show bond, order, disposition, sentence, or other action that caused release.
This split is not just a technical point. It prevents false no-record conclusions. If a person was never booked into Tallapoosa County Jail, the Sheriff's office may have no jail release record. If the person was booked into a different county jail because of the place of arrest or county of filing, that other county's release record must be checked. If the person remained in a municipal process, the police and court records may be the only local paper trail.
| Fact to Confirm | Why It Matters | Likely Record Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Arresting agency | Shows whether Tallassee Police started the event. | Police report or incident record |
| County of filing | Controls which court and jail path may apply. | Court clerk or docket |
| Jail used | Identifies the office that can confirm release. | Tallapoosa County Jail or another jail |
| Transfer or hold | Shows whether release from one jail led to another custody setting. | Jail, court, ADOC, federal, or other agency |
Tallassee Records Routing
A Tallassee release request should be built from a custody timeline. Start with the police event. Then identify any jail booking. Then identify the court file. After that, follow any transfer, detainer, state sentence, or supervision status shown in those records. This order keeps the search from jumping to Tallapoosa County Jail when the event may have stayed municipal or may have gone through another county.
If Tallapoosa County Jail was used, the Tallapoosa County Sheriff's Department contact route is 316 Industrial Park Drive in Dadeville with jail phone (256) 825-4264 and fax (256) 825-1012. Ask for jail records and release confirmation by full identifiers. If the case was filed in Tallapoosa County court, Alacourt Access or the Tallapoosa County Circuit Clerk can help with case status and action summaries. If the person was sentenced to ADOC, the local jail release may only show transfer to state custody.
- County of filing
- The county where the charge or case was filed, which may differ from a city name.
- Jail used
- The actual detention facility that accepted the person after arrest or court action.
- Municipal process
- A city-level citation, court, or police handling route that may not create a county jail release.
- Another-agency hold
- A warrant, detainer, or transfer request from a different county, state, federal, or immigration authority.
When Tallapoosa Jail Applies
Tallapoosa County Jail applies when the person was booked there or when the Tallapoosa County court record controls the custody event. The jail serves pretrial felony defendants, convicted felons, and defendants convicted of misdemeanor offenses in the county. If a Tallassee Police matter became a Tallapoosa County booking, release confirmation should ask whether the person left by bond, court order, time served, sentence completion, transfer to ADOC, or another-agency hold.
Bookings are not releases. The Sheriff's page lists 1,727 yearly bookings in 2024, an average daily population of 131, average monthly booking of 144, video conferencing of 319, and a 2024-2025 jail budget of $1,969,591. Those figures show jail activity, but they do not say how many Tallassee Police arrests led to releases. Use them only as context for why a precise booking and release request is needed.
A search for a recent release should also account for lag. A person may be in court, in transport, or in another agency's custody while family or the public are trying to confirm status. Ask "where did the person go" rather than only "were they released."
Other Tallassee Custody Paths
A Tallassee arrest may lead outside the local police-to-county-jail path. If the record says ADOC, use the ADOC inmate search while the person is in state custody and ADOC public records for older release proof. If it says parole or probation, use the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles route and the Dadeville Field Office when the Tallapoosa County supervision link applies. If it says federal hold, BOP, federal court, or U.S. Marshals custody may be the right trail. If it says ICE or immigration hold, use official immigration detention tools and do not assume community release.
These paths can overlap. A person might be released from Tallapoosa County Jail and then taken to another county on a warrant. Another person might be released from local custody because an ADOC sentence started. A third might receive a city citation and never enter jail. The record owner changes with each step, which is why Tallassee's county-line issue should be resolved before any request is sent.
Tallassee Release Record Limits
Alabama public-records law supports access to many public writings, but not every detail in a police, jail, or court file is public. Juvenile records, sealed matters, expunged cases, protected personal data, medical information, active investigation material, and safety-sensitive details can be restricted. A request for a specific arrest, citation, booking, or release event is usually more useful than a broad demand for every file connected to a person.
If the record is restricted, ask whether a public version, docket entry, release date, or custody-status confirmation can be provided. If the office says another agency owns the record, ask for the correct agency name, case number, and filing county. That handoff detail can save time in a Tallassee case because the city name alone does not prove the Tallapoosa County jail record exists.
