Riverbend Female Release Paths
A woman may leave Riverbend’s female division through bond, a dismissal, time served, sentence expiration, a court order, parole, good-time diminution, or a probation transition. She may instead move to the male-listed Riverbend complex address, another jail, a Louisiana DPS&C placement, federal custody, or immigration custody. Only the first group necessarily describes release into the community.
East Carroll’s official Sheriff roster combines current, released, and transferred records. It displays both Released and Transferred To. A date plus HOME points toward community release. A date plus a named institution means custody continued elsewhere. The visible table does not show the release reason, exact time, charge, bond, case number, or photograph.
| Release path | Primary proof | Supporting proof |
|---|---|---|
| Local community release | Riverbend release event | East Carroll court order |
| Transfer to another jail | Sending and receiving records | Court docket if relevant |
| DPS&C sentence or parole | LAVNS and state record | Riverbend event |
| Probation after local case | Court sentence | Assigned supervision office |
Search Riverbend Female Releases
Start with a surname search or show-all view. Match the full name and date of birth, then compare sex, race, transfer source, release date, and destination. Record exactly what the row says. Do not paraphrase a destination institution as home. The roster publishes an API-based Last Updated marker but no fixed refresh promise, so a recent event can require direct confirmation.
- Identify the correct woman using several visible facts, not a partial name alone.
- Read the release date and destination on the same row.
- Call the female division’s shared Riverbend number and ask for the actual event.
- Obtain the East Carroll court disposition or release order when the case is local.
- Check LAVNS and the DPS&C locator for a state sentence or supervision.
A no-hit is inconclusive. It can reflect spelling, a delayed update, transfer, a changed web-retention practice, full discharge, sealing, expungement, or an outage. Use the East Carroll Parish released-inmate lookup for the complete records fallback rather than declaring release from silence.
Custody distinction: Riverbend can stop holding a woman while another jail, DPS&C, or a federal agency continues custody.
Riverbend Female Release Contact
The Louisiana DPS&C East Carroll directory separately lists the female division at 9482 Highway 65 South. That address should not be silently replaced with the PREA audit’s 9450 U.S. 65 address. Both female and male entries use the same main phone and fax, which supports shared Riverbend contact while preserving the official address distinction.
Riverbend Detention Center (Female)
9482 Highway 65 South
Lake Providence, LA 71254
Phone: 318-559-5980
Fax: 318-559-5983
No official release hours published
Ask for the actual date and time the female division stopped holding the person, the destination, the authority for the event, and any receiving agency. No official release door, property-return method, family waiting point, or weekend and holiday schedule was found. Call before travel. Sheriff administrative hours do not establish Riverbend’s custody-processing hours.
The directory’s three local entries appear in this official facility source.

The separate female address shown by the state is why the Riverbend divisions are not merged into one web page.
Riverbend Female Release Requests
East Carroll publishes no distinct Riverbend records form, local release-record fee, photo charge, or guaranteed turnaround. A narrow Louisiana public-record request should identify the event and ask for existing public portions. R.S. 44:32 allows written, electronic, and non-in-person requests and provides for segregation when some material is exempt.
Supply the woman’s full name, aliases, date of birth, approximate booking dates, and booking, inmate, or DPS&C number if known. Request the releasing facility, actual date and time, release mechanism, destination, receiving agency, case number, detainer disposition, property receipt, and whether probation or parole followed. Ask for the booking photograph separately because it does not appear in the Sheriff roster.
Route a written local request through the East Carroll Parish Sheriff, P.O. Box 246, Lake Providence, LA 71254, phone 318-559-2800, fax 318-559-2567. The Sheriff contact page lists the courthouse office and Riverbend information. Inspection itself has no fee under R.S. 44:32, though reasonable posted copy or transmission charges can apply. Note: A custodian may limit sealed, expunged, juvenile, victim-identifying, security, or active-investigation material.
Riverbend Female Release Authority
The Sixth Judicial District Court handles East Carroll criminal matters, and the parish Clerk holds the local file. Court records can reveal bond, dismissal, plea, sentence, jail credit, probation, revocation, or an amended order. They explain the legal authority for leaving Riverbend, but do not always record the exact time physical release processing ended.
Contact the East Carroll Clerk of Court at 400 First Street, Suite 3, Lake Providence, phone 318-559-2399. Use the defendant and case number where known. If the only known event is booking, ask the Sheriff for the public booking summary to identify charges and arresting agency, then locate the court case.
A court order can precede release. Another warrant, detainer, consecutive term, or agency hold may prevent the person from going home. Conversely, a Riverbend transfer entry can occur while the East Carroll charge continues. The careful conclusion names the case and custodian confirmed by the record rather than claiming more.
Riverbend Female State Release Check
A woman serving a Louisiana state sentence while housed locally may appear in LAVNS. Search by exact first and last name or ID/case number, use location when useful, compare date of birth and agency, and open the matching record. Read incarceration and community-supervision labels differently. Probation or parole shows life outside physical prison custody with continuing oversight.
DPS&C says its information updates every 24 hours. The automated locator at 225-383-4580 can provide a facility, projected release date if applicable, or assigned probation and parole district when the caller supplies the DPS&C number or name and date of birth. Call 225-342-0799 for time-computation questions. A projected date can move and never proves that release has occurred.
If Tallulah is the assigned office, the Tallulah Probation and Parole District serves East Carroll from 1003 Johnson Street, phone 318-574-4201, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. A Riverbend release does not automatically create Tallulah supervision. The sentence, locator, or release record must show that link.
- Parole
- Community release after imprisonment under conditions and state supervision.
- Probation
- Community supervision imposed through a court sentence.
- Discharge
- Formal completion of the sentence or supervision term.
- Transfer
- Movement between custodians without community release.
Riverbend Female Division Context
Riverbend’s official descriptions require care. The current state directory maintains male and female entries at different street numbers. A 2023 PREA audit describes a single Sheriff-operated, medium-security prison/jail at 9450 U.S. 65 that held adults of both sexes during the audit period. These facts support the phrase “separately listed divisions of the local detention system.” They do not prove current internal placement assignments.
The audit’s population counts are dated snapshots, not current capacity or release statistics. Both Riverbend directory entries share the main contact. Researchers should retain the female address for a woman’s page while confirming her exact placement and booking location with staff. East Carroll Detention Center remains a separate Hollybrook Road entry, though the Sheriff’s roster serves the local system broadly.
In January 2026, eight people escaped Riverbend and were recaptured. The official LDWF account is a local warning about status words: escape is not release. A news image, physical absence, or missing roster row cannot substitute for a lawful release or transfer record.
The same principle protects accuracy for the female division. Confirm who last held the woman, which destination received her, and which court or corrections authority controlled the event. Only then can the record distinguish return home, community supervision, and continued custody.
