Maguire Release Records

Maguire Release Paths

Maguire Correctional Facility is identified by the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office Corrections Division as the county's main jail. It primarily houses male inmates and serves both pretrial and court-sentenced custody. That local role controls the release search. A person leaving Maguire is leaving San Mateo County jail custody unless a court order, warrant, or sentence sends the person into a different system.

Common outcomes include direct release to the community, bond or own-recognizance release, a dismissal or other court order, completion of a county jail sentence, transfer to CDCR after a state-prison sentence, transfer to another county or federal authority, or movement into the Sheriff's alternative sentence channels. Those outcomes do not all look the same in public records. A direct jail release may be best confirmed by the Sheriff's Criminal Records Bureau. A state-prison transfer should be checked in CDCR's CIRIS system. A federal or immigration custody issue requires BOP, ICE, court, or warrant records.

Confirm Maguire Release Status

The San Mateo County inmate locator is a current-custody tool. A person who still appears there may not have finished release processing, or another hold may exist. A person who no longer appears may have been released, transferred, temporarily withheld from public view, or entered under a different name. A no-result search is useful, but it is not a release certificate.

1. Check the San Mateo County Inmate Locator while the release may still be pending.
2. Search the San Mateo Superior Court case through the court index or criminal clerk channels for minutes, bail changes, sentence, dismissal, probation, or remand.
3. Use California VINE if a custody-change notice was registered before release.
4. Request a Sheriff's booking chronology if the person has already left Maguire and the public locator no longer gives a clear answer.
5. Check CDCR, BOP, or ICE only when the court or release information points to state, federal, or immigration custody.

The broader San Mateo County released inmate search should follow custody type. Maguire is local jail custody. CDCR handles state prison. BOP handles federal prison. ICE handles immigration detention. Searching the wrong system can make a valid release look missing.

Maguire Records Contact

Maguire's facility phone is the jail contact, but the records path for a completed release usually runs through the Sheriff's Criminal Records Bureau. The bureau is the Sheriff's Office custodian of records and the local repository for San Mateo County criminal records held by the office. Its page uses the specific term "booking chronology" for a record showing time spent in the San Mateo County Jail or Sheriff's Work Program. That is the strongest local wording for a Maguire release-record request.

For a release record, ask for a booking chronology for the named person, with date of birth if known, booking date, case number, and the requested date range. The Criminal Records Bureau explains that some reports are limited to authorized parties, may need case identifiers, and may be exempt or require a court order. The public records request channel is available for general Public Records Act requests, but the sheriff directs involved parties, their attorneys, and people seeking their own records toward the separate information request process and records email.

Maguire Facility Source

The sheriff contact page is useful when a Maguire record question needs the right county office rather than a state locator. The San Mateo County Sheriff's contact paths show the agency route for jail and records questions.

This source supports the local routing point: a Maguire release starts with the Sheriff's jail and records channels unless a court transfer moved the person into CDCR, federal, immigration, or another county custody system.

About Maguire Custody

Maguire is a county jail. That status matters because a county jail handles people at many stages of a case. Some are waiting for hearings. Some are serving short local sentences. Some are waiting for transport after sentencing. Some may leave because the court changed bail, recalled a warrant, dismissed a charge, imposed probation, or credited time already served. The release record should be tied to the court event and the booking event, not to a generic prison discharge idea.

Booking chronology

A Sheriff's Office record showing time spent in the San Mateo County Jail or Sheriff's Work Program.

Time served

A sentence result where custody already served satisfies all or part of the local jail term.

Transfer

Movement from Maguire to another authority, such as CDCR, another county, federal custody, or a program placement.

PRCS

Postrelease Community Supervision, a county-supervised status for some people released from CDCR.

Maguire ICE Detainers

Immigration questions should be handled with care. San Mateo County publishes a county-specific immigration detainers and warrants page. The sheriff says the County has an ordinance limiting cooperation with immigration authorities and that the Sheriff's Office will not hold, detain, house, transfer, or facilitate an arrest unless there is a judicial warrant or another controlling legal requirement.

The visible monthly table in the research period showed detainers received, zero detainers acted upon, and four judicial warrants or judicial bookings through May 2026. That local policy means an ICE detainer request should not be treated as proof that a Maguire release was delayed or converted into ICE custody. If ICE custody is a real concern, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System separately. ICE custody is not the same record as a San Mateo County jail booking.

Maguire and Other Facilities

Maguire is the main jail, but San Mateo County release research often touches the Maple Street campus and local alternative custody. Maple Street Correctional Center houses male and female inmates and includes transitional housing. The Transitional Housing Unit is work-oriented and connected to minimum-security custody. The Alternative Sentencing Bureau covers court-recommended work program, electronic monitoring, and work furlough paths.

A person may leave Maguire but still have court-ordered obligations in one of those local channels. That is why the best release check follows the custody chain: Maguire booking, court order, records bureau chronology, and the receiving program or agency.
