Important: A BOP locator result is public locator information, not a complete custody history or an official sentence computation. Release information can change. Verify important decisions directly with BOP.gov.
What the result can tell you
- The person BOP matched to the search information.
- The BOP register number shown in the public locator.
- The facility or public custody status BOP currently displays.
- A release date or release status when BOP publishes one.
What it does not prove by itself
- That a displayed release date can no longer change.
- How much GCT or FSA Time Credit has been earned or will ultimately be applied.
- Eligibility for RRC, home confinement, RDAP, supervised-release transfer, or another placement.
- That “Released” or “Not in BOP Custody” necessarily describes every possible correctional, immigration, court, or supervision status.
Cómo entender los resultados de BOP
El localizador de BOP ofrece información pública, pero no es un historial completo de custodia ni un cálculo oficial de la sentencia. Las fechas y el estado pueden cambiar.
Un resultado puede mostrar el nombre, número de registro, institución o estado público y una fecha/condición de liberación cuando BOP la publica. No demuestra por sí solo la cantidad final de GCT o créditos FSA, elegibilidad para RRC o confinamiento domiciliario, ni todas las posibles formas de custodia o supervisión.
