Liberty Correctional Institution is a Florida state prison in Bristol, Liberty County, operated by the Florida Department of Corrections. It primarily houses sentenced adult male inmates who have been committed to state custody, rather than newly arrested pretrial detainees.

Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Liberty Correctional Institution
Members of the public can look for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page. Jail and prison rosters typically list identifying and custody information such as the person’s name, booking or receipt date, charges or offenses, custody status, and housing location when available. For state prison inmates, records may also show a Department of Corrections number, sentence details, release date, and current facility. Records are not always searchable immediately after arrest, booking, or transfer; processing and data entry can take several hours or longer. If the person does not appear right away, check again later or contact the appropriate agency for confirmation.
