Where Complex Releases Lead
The Camden County Public Safety Complex is the county jail operated by the Camden County Sheriff's Office in Woodbine. It holds people after local arrests, during pretrial proceedings, for short county sentences, and while a hold or transfer is being resolved. A release from the complex means that the Camden jail booking has closed. It does not always mean the person walked out free of all custody or legal duties.
Several paths can follow that event. A person may post bond and return to the community, complete a county sentence, leave after charges are disposed, report under probation or parole, or transfer to another county. A Camden County release can also be a transfer to the Georgia Department of Corrections, a federal custodian, or immigration custody. The completed jail Release Date proves the local custody endpoint. The court case, GDC record, federal docket, or detainer record supplies the next part of the story.
A Camden jail release date marks the end of this booking. It does not prove release to the community.
Confirm Complex Release Records
The official Camden sheriff inmate-search page leads to the New World inquiry. Its search form has Name, Subject Number, Booking Number, booking-date fields, Housing Facility, and an In Custody checkbox labeled "Currently jailed only." That checkbox is decisive. Leave it clear when looking for a past Camden County Public Safety Complex booking.
- Search by the person's name, subject number, or booking number. Use a booking-date range when the approximate jail stay is known.
- Leave In Custody unchecked and select Camden County Public Safety Complex in the facility field when useful.
- Open the matching result. Do not treat a blank grid value as final proof.
- Read each booking separately and locate the completed Release Date. Review disposition, bond, court, and booking-origin fields for context.
The inquiry may return old bookings and people who are no longer jailed. Historical appearance is not current custody. A person with multiple bookings can have one closed booking and another with a different status, so each detail must be checked. The broader Camden County released-inmate search explains how to move from the jail record to court, GDC, parole, or federal records.
Camden Complex Release Fields
New World embeds release information in the booking history rather than issuing a separate online release certificate. A completed record can give the actual time the booking closed and facts that help identify the route out. Some fields may be blank, and a scheduled date is not a substitute for an actual date.
| Field | How to read it |
|---|---|
| Release Date | The strongest online confirmation that a specific Camden jail booking ended. |
| Scheduled Release Date | A projected field that may change or remain blank, even after an actual release. |
| Disposition and date | Charge-level context, such as a recorded bond-out disposition. |
| Bond records | Bond number, type, amount, and totals where recorded. |
| Booking Origin | The sheriff or municipal agency tied to the intake. |
| Court and docket fields | Clues for continuing the search in the proper court case. |
A blank In Custody cell is only a clue. Open the detail and find the completed release field. If the legal outcome matters, use the docket or court fields to locate the court disposition because bond release does not close the criminal case.
Complex Records and Contact
The sheriff is the source for the Camden County Public Safety Complex booking sheet, release record, transfer record, and any releasable booking photograph. When the inquiry is missing a person, looks stale, or lacks a needed field, submit a narrow request through the Camden County Sheriff's Office Open Records Center. Include the name, booking or subject number if known, approximate dates, and the exact record sought.

Records requests: sheriff Open Records Center
A useful request asks for the booking and release record, including booking time, release time, release reason or disposition, bond information, and transfer destination if maintained. Georgia law may allow charges for search, retrieval, redaction, copies, or media. No Camden-specific amount should be assumed before the agency reviews the request.
Camden Complex Custody Scope
The Camden sheriff's Corrections Division page identifies the county detention operation, while New World supplies the booking and release fields. The systems serve different roles. The corrections page establishes the operator and jail context. The inquiry answers the person-specific booking question.
Bookings can originate with the sheriff or municipal police in Kingsland, St. Marys, and Woodbine. A municipal arrest may still be processed through Camden County Public Safety Complex. Booking Origin and arresting-agency fields can help identify the responsible court path, which may vary with the charge and jurisdiction.
The official Corrections page shown below is the agency source for the facility context.
That agency page should be paired with New World for a person-specific release search, not treated as a replacement for the booking detail.
Complex Release Process Questions
Property, jail-process, and service questions belong with the facility. The sheriff's Inmate Services page and Inmate Guidelines provide the official local route for those topics. A release-record correction is different. It should go to the office that owns the disputed data, such as the sheriff for jail dates, the court for a case disposition, or GDC for a state record.
The Inmate Services source below provides local facility guidance.
These service pages help route facility questions, while the release detail remains the proof that a booking ended.
Complex Releases and ICE Holds
Camden's sheriff publishes material under Georgia's Criminal Alien Track Report Act, which makes immigration custody a local release caveat. That reporting is not a person-by-person locator. A completed Camden jail release may reflect release to the community, resolution of a hold, or movement to another custodian.
When an immigration detention question is actually present, check the ICE Online Detainee Locator System. It supports an A-number and country-of-birth search or a biographical search. Pair that result with the Camden release or transfer record. A disappearance from the county inquiry cannot, by itself, prove either an ICE transfer or an ICE release.
Two Camden Jail Names
Local sources use two names for the same detention setting. New World's housing list calls it Camden County Public Safety Complex. The Georgia Department of Corrections location listing uses Camden County Jail and gives the Woodbine address. Searchers should treat those names as the county jail system, not as two separate facilities.
This distinction also explains why only one Camden facility page is needed. The lookup system, records portal, court system, GDC search, parole search, BOP locator, and ICE locator are access channels, not additional Camden detention buildings. None should be mistaken for a sibling jail.
