Inmate Lookup
Hamilton Correctional Facility's inmate lookup helps you find basic custody and booking information. State and local rosters aren't the same as federal inmate locators—each system only covers people in its own custody. Start with the inmate's last and first name, then add a date of birth or booking number to narrow results. Booking date ranges and other filters can help cut down on unrelated matches. Once you get results, confirm you've got the right person by checking details like name, DOB, race/sex, location, charges, booking date/time, bond status, and any mugshot shown. Online rosters update on their own schedules and can lag or include errors, so don't treat them as official court records. Hamilton's Victim Services Unit administers the statewide VINE service and notifies enrolled victims before an inmate's release.

Facility Info
Hiring at Hamilton Correctional Facility follows Florida Department of Corrections rules. New employees must use state-mandated direct deposit for payroll and complete fingerprint-based state and national background checks. Fingerprints sent to FDLE and the FBI are kept until you leave employment—later arrests can trigger agency notification. Related records may end up in your personnel file as public records under Chapter 119. The application also covers medical and readiness items: annual TB testing, overtime or emergency work if you're designated essential, uniform and grooming compliance, and confidentiality expectations. You'll need to disclose affiliations like gang membership or gang-related tattoos and answer screening questions about sexual-abuse or sexual-conduct adjudications. FDOC also offers internships, including an unpaid Victim Services internship at FDC Tallahassee and chaplaincy internships statewide.
