Overview
Looking for someone at MCC New York? Start with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) inmate locator, which covers federal custody records from 1982 to today. Note that the BOP warns listed release dates may be outdated after First Step Act recalculations. Enter register numbers exactly in the BOP format #####-###—a different format can prevent matches. If a record shows "Released" or "Not in BOP Custody" with no facility listed, the person is no longer in BOP custody (they may be in another system or on supervision). No register number? Try a New York DIN in state systems or search by full name plus date of birth. For custody-change alerts, use VINE for New York releases or the relevant county/state lookup.
