Conte Facility Release Path
Joseph V. Conte Facility is a medium-custody BSO detention facility in Pompano Beach. BSO describes it as a direct-supervision jail. That term refers to the placement and staff model, not a different release process. Broward has one county jail system. BSO states that every entry into and release from its four facilities is processed through Main Jail Central Intake. A Conte placement assignment therefore does not create a separate release feed or a separate public release office.
A person may leave Conte in several ways. Transfer to Main Jail or another BSO placement unit is an internal movement, not release from county custody. A bond, court-ordered pretrial release, time-served exit, sentence expiration, dismissal-related order, or other community-directed reason may end BSO custody. A transfer to Florida state prison, another county, federal custody, or ICE also ends the BSO episode, but custody continues. Always preserve the BSO reason.
Confirm Conte Facility Release
Start with the BSO Arrest Search only to test current custody. A current result may show the present facility, arrest number, charge data, and expected or projected fields. Those future-looking fields do not prove that release has happened. If there is no current hit, continue to the date-based release log rather than treating the absence as proof.
- Write down the exact name, birth date, JMS or arrest number, and last known Conte placement date.
- Open the BSO Inmate Release Log and select the expected calendar date.
- Match the JMS number, admission date, arrest agency, charges, and birth date before relying on the result.
- Read the exact released timestamp and `releaseReason` value.
- Check the Broward Clerk case for the bond order, sentence, disposition, or other court action.
- If BSO reports a transfer, search the receiving authority’s official custody system.
The Broward County release search provides the full follow-up chain for a named person. The key distinction is simple: BSO’s current roster answers whether someone is still held, while the release log documents a completed exit from the four-jail system.
Conte Release Date Log
The official BSO Inmate Release Log asks for one date. It is not a name-indexed archive screen and does not promise a rolling number of hours. If the likely release time was near midnight, search both calendar dates. If timing is uncertain, check consecutive dates while keeping each result’s exact timestamp. BSO says the information can be updated periodically, so a very recent event may need a later check.
| Release field | Use for a Conte record |
|---|---|
| JMS number | Connect the record to the correct BSO jail episode |
| Admitted date and time | Distinguish one booking from another |
| Released date and time | Show when Central Intake closed BSO custody |
| Release reason | Separate a community exit from a transfer |
| Agency and case data | Locate the court file or next custodian |
The log can also contain demographics, arresting officer information, bond fields, statute descriptions, and warrant or case numbers. Do not republish more personal information than a status check requires. The field set is useful because it reduces false matches and supplies a bridge to the court record.

The date-first design confirms that Conte releases are found through the shared BSO product, not a facility-specific list.
Conte Release Reasons Matter
Observed BSO reason values include “SURETY BOND,” “PRE-TRIAL RLSE BOND/ELMO,” and “XFER TO OTHER JURIS.” The first two can reflect release to the community while the case continues. Electronic monitoring is a release condition, not a final discharge from all court obligations. The transfer value means a different authority took custody. It must never be shortened to “released” without the transfer context.
A BSO release record is an operational custody record. It identifies who left, when, and under which agency-coded reason. The Broward Clerk docket is a judicial record. It can show the bond order, case events, sentence, dismissal, or disposition. A supervision record answers yet another question: whether probation, parole, conditional release, or another status continues after incarceration. One record cannot safely stand in for all three.
- Community release
- BSO physical custody ends and the person returns outside a detention institution, sometimes with court conditions.
- Transfer
- BSO custody ends because another government authority takes custody.
- Disposition
- The court’s action on a charge or case, which is separate from the jail exit time.
- Discharge
- Completion of a custody or supervision episode as defined by the responsible agency.
Note: A bond release does not dismiss a Broward case, and a transfer out of Conte does not establish a return to the community.
Conte Release Records Request
Use BSO’s public-record request instructions when an old date is unavailable, an online reason needs certification, or the movement history matters. Request the specific booking and release sheet or jail movement and release record. Provide the person’s full name, JMS or arrest number, birth date if needed for identity, approximate admission and exit dates, and Joseph V. Conte Facility as the known placement location. Ask for electronic delivery and a cost estimate.
P.O. Box 9507
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33310
(954) 831-8700
Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The records unit, not Conte placement staff, is the proper custodian route for an enduring release document. BSO says requests are handled in queue order and warns that duplicate submissions can slow work. Florida law allows redaction of exempt information. A focused request should avoid unrelated victim, juvenile, medical, protected-address, sealed, or expunged material.
For the legal result, request the disposition or order from the Broward Clerk. The jail record proves the custody event, while the certified court record proves what the court ordered. If the transfer went to FDC, use the state inmate-population database for current prison custody and the FDC release database only after a later state release.
Conte Facility Custody Role
Conte’s direct-supervision and medium-custody role describes its operations. It does not change public access to release data. BSO operates the sole county jail system, with Main Jail, Conte, North Broward, and Paul Rein as the current four facilities. The agency’s March 2026 description controls over an older FAQ reference to the closed Stockade. No Stockade page or release feed should be inferred from that legacy listing.
The BSO detention FAQ is mapped to Conte and supplies county facility context. Its official capture illustrates the shared four-facility detention framework.

The agency source supports treating Conte as part of one BSO jail system with a single public release path.
Mail for the Joseph V. Conte Facility uses P.O. Box 407016, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33340-7016. That mailing address does not replace the Pompano Beach street location for identifying the facility in a records request. Include both the facility name and the person’s identifier whenever possible.
Conte Facility Contact
Joseph V. Conte Facility is at 1351 NW 27th Avenue in Pompano Beach. The BSO detention information line is (954) 831-5900. That desk can help with current location information across the jail system. It does not convert an online result into a certified release record and should not be asked for protected details.

If the person is still shown at Conte, no BSO release has occurred. If the current result disappears, check the date log. If the date log reports transfer, continue with the receiving system. This sequence protects against the common mistake of equating a placement change, roster absence, or county transfer with a community release.
Conte Release Date Fallback
When the expected date produces no match, check the dates before and after it rather than changing the person’s identifiers. Central Intake can finish processing on a later calendar date than the court event. If the date log still has no result, give BSO Public Records the approximate range and Conte as the last known placement. The resulting movement or release sheet can distinguish an internal BSO move from a system exit.
