Coxsackie, NY Greene Correctional Facility View

Greene Correctional Facility is a New York State correctional facility located in Coxsackie, Greene County, New York. It is operated by the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS), not the county sheriff. The facility generally houses sentenced state inmates who have been committed to DOCCS custody after conviction.

Its role is to provide secure custody, supervision, and correctional programming for state-sentenced inmates within New York’s prison system.

How to Find an Inmate at Greene Correctional Facility

Members of the public can use the official inmate search link on this page to look for someone held at the facility. State prison lookup tools typically list the person’s name, identifying number, current facility, custody status, admission information, and possible release information. County jail rosters often show booking date, charges, and custody status, but state prison records may not list all local case details. Records usually become searchable only after intake and processing are completed, which can take several hours or longer, so a newly transferred or admitted person may not appear immediately. If no result appears, check the spelling, try again later, or contact the facility or DOCCS for guidance.
