Westmoreland Parole and Probation
Parole and probation both permit a person to live in the community under rules, but their legal sources differ. A Westmoreland County circuit judge may order probation instead of active imprisonment or after part of a sentence is served. Parole is conditional release from a prison term for a person who falls within Virginia's eligible categories. Most felony offenses committed on or after January 1, 1995 are outside ordinary discretionary parole, though exceptions remain. The Virginia Parole Board decides parole matters. VADOC Community Supervision carries out state probation and parole in the field.
Local supervision is another track. Northern Neck Regional Jail Community-Based Probation handles qualifying referrals from local courts. NNRJ PreTrial Services monitors some people released while a case is still pending. Neither local program should be called state parole. The order and assigned agency decide which rules apply.
| Community status | Source | Westmoreland route |
|---|---|---|
| Parole | Conditional release from an eligible prison sentence | Virginia Parole Board decision; VADOC District 33 supervision |
| State probation | Circuit court sentence or post-release term | VADOC District 33 |
| Local probation | Local court referral | NNRJ Community-Based Probation |
| Pretrial supervision | Release while charges await disposition | NNRJ PreTrial Services |
The label matters because a release from custody does not end every court duty. It also does not mean the person is still incarcerated. A VADOC district-office result describes community supervision, while a VADOC prison location describes confinement.
- Parole
- Conditional community release from an eligible prison term before full sentence discharge.
- Probation
- Court-ordered community oversight, sometimes used instead of or after active custody.
- Discharge
- The formal end of the supervision or correctional obligation described by the issuing authority.
- Absconder
- A supervisee alleged to have stopped reporting or left supervision without authorization. It is not a label to infer from a missing search result.
Verify Westmoreland Post-Release Supervision
Begin with the authority named in the case, not with a broad assumption about why the person left custody. The VADOC Inmate and Supervisee Locator covers people whom VADOC reports as incarcerated or supervised. It updates daily, not in real time. Many local-only NNRJ cases never enter that system. A Westmoreland court docket can identify whether the sentence includes probation, suspended time, or a later violation.
- Search the Westmoreland court case by name or case number. Read the disposition, active sentence, suspended time, and probation terms.
- When state custody or supervision is plausible, search VADOC by its number or the exact name. Read status and location together.
- If a district office or supervisee status appears, contact the assigned VADOC office for any purpose-neutral confirmation it may release.
- For a local referral, contact NNRJ Community-Based Probation. For a pending case with pretrial conditions, use NNRJ PreTrial Services.
- For parole, check the Board's monthly decision reports, then confirm that VADOC executed release and assigned supervision.
A Board “Grant” is a decision, not a physical checkout time. Release planning, record review, detainers, or an approved plan may still stand between that decision and departure. The broader Westmoreland County released-inmate search explains how the jail event, court order, and receiving agency fit together.
Westmoreland State Supervision Office
VADOC District 33 is the official state field office serving Westmoreland, Essex, Lancaster, Northumberland, and Richmond counties. The state directory identifies Jessica R. Vaughn as chief. The office may confirm routing or explain its process, but no public promise says it will disclose an assigned officer, appointments, or a supervisee's schedule. Use the locator and court order first so the request reaches the correct track.

VADOC facilities and offices directory
District 33 is not a jail. A person reporting there has been placed in the community under VADOC authority. Someone fully discharged may no longer appear in the locator's current custody-or-supervision scope, so an older question can require a targeted VADOC record request.
Westmoreland Supervision Violations
Conditions come from the judgment, release papers, and supervising authority. Common categories can include reporting, approved residence or travel, treatment, and compliance with court orders, but the exact signed terms control. A claimed violation can lead to an agency response or court proceeding. It does not prove the person has been returned to custody.
No separate official public District 33 absconder list was found. Locator absence cannot be turned into an absconder finding. It can also reflect discharge, a spelling issue, a local-only case, or data timing. Check a warrant through the court or issuing law-enforcement authority. Check supervision through the sentence and the proper program, subject to disclosure limits. Virginia VINE is designed for local custody events, not for tracking ordinary probation appointments.
Parole violations follow the Board and VADOC process. Monthly Board reports may use outcomes such as Continue, Revoke, or Discharge. Those terms describe a decision in that process and still must be connected to the current VADOC or court record.
Westmoreland Supervision Discharge Records
Supervision ends through the authority that imposed or administers it. A court order may close probation, VADOC may record a supervision discharge, or the Parole Board may issue a discharge outcome in an eligible case. The jail roster is not the proof. It only addresses current physical custody at NNRJ and can lag recent events.
For an older state record, request the existing VADOC documents that show release, supervision, and discharge status. Virginia FOIA allows requests for reasonably specific existing public records, though exemptions can limit what is released. Ask for segregable nonexempt parts rather than demanding a new explanation. For local probation, use the Westmoreland case disposition and the NNRJ program identified in the referral.
Note: Discharge from one supervision term does not by itself resolve another court case, warrant, registry duty, or separate agency status.
Two Warsaw Probation Tracks
Westmoreland County residents can encounter two offices in the Warsaw area with different authority. NNRJ Community-Based Probation handles local court referrals. Its Westmoreland contact is Latasha Plummer at (804) 333-6034. The program directs a referred person to make contact within seven days, and its posted hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The entrance is on the right side of NNRJ from the parking lot.
VADOC District 33, reached at (804) 333-3286, handles state probation and parole. Pretrial Services is a third category for a person awaiting disposition after release. Westmoreland and Richmond referrals are directed to Amy Stowell at (804) 333-6031 by the next business day. Calling every form “parole” can send a person to the wrong office and misstate the court status.
Westmoreland Release Reentry Support
NNRJ Offender Re-Entry and Transition Services works with people preparing for release and some already in the community. Enrollment goes through a case manager, and NNRJ recommends contact about 90 days before an expected release. Services are subject to funding. The documented areas include release planning, identification help, education and life-skills classes, transportation assistance, shelter referrals, and links to other agencies.
ORTS support is separate from supervision. A person can receive reentry help without that program being the office that sets probation or parole conditions. Conversely, District 33 can supervise a person whose reentry plan came from a VADOC facility rather than NNRJ. Keeping those roles separate makes a Westmoreland release record easier to read.
The official Parole Board meeting calendar shows scheduled public decision meetings. The captured calendar is a useful view of the decision layer, while District 33 remains the field-supervision layer after an executed release.

A meeting or agenda entry does not establish that a named person left a VADOC facility. Match any decision to the VADOC release record.
Westmoreland Release ID and Property
NNRJ returns stored personal property when a person is released. Its ORTS program can help with identification-document planning. At the state level, VADOC release procedure records the return of a Property Envelope against a receipt and keeps a scan in VACORIS, its correctional record system. Virginia Code § 53.1-31.4 also addresses state identification duties for qualifying releases.
These details can matter during the first days of supervision. They do not prove that supervision began or ended. The executed release papers and the supervising assignment remain the key records. If property or ID is missing, contact the facility or program responsible for that item instead of treating District 33 as the custodian of every release document.
Westmoreland Parole Decision Records
The Virginia Parole Board posts monthly decision reports as PDFs. Depending on the case, a report may list a VADOC number, case type, decision or hearing date, Grant or Not Grant outcome, certification, stated reasons, jurisdiction, offenses, sentence, and votes. Violation results can include Continue, Revoke, or Discharge. These are decision records. They are not a current address list, a field-office schedule, or proof that a granted release was carried out that day.
Final deliberation and vote meetings have a public-meeting requirement that began July 1, 2024. The Board posts each meeting and agenda rather than promising a fixed cadence. For a named Westmoreland County person, match the monthly report to the VADOC number and then check custody or supervision through VADOC. The Board says it does not give pending-case status updates, so an unpublished decision should not be guessed from the calendar.
Virginia Code §§ 53.1-151 through 53.1-153 and § 53.1-165.1 contain eligibility rules and exclusions. They are too fact-dependent for a simple percentage test. A person with a post-1995 felony is generally outside ordinary discretionary parole, while older terms and listed exceptions require the actual sentence record.
