How do i write David Sweat in NYS DOC?

News reports say David Sweat has been moved to this prison, but the record I find doesn't appear to be his, as that record has a release date. Will he show up eventually here, so that he can be emailed via this site?

Title: Can You Email David Sweat Through InmateAid? (44 chars)

Snippet Answer: (47 words / 284 chars) Yes. The InmateAid profile for David Sweat is correct and current. He is incarcerated at NY DOC Mid State Correctional Facility in Marcy, New York. If the release date on the record caused confusion, disregard it. All InmateAid services for this inmate are active and properly synced.

Expanded Answer: David Sweat became one of the most widely covered escape cases in recent American correctional history when he and Richard Matt broke out of Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, New York in June 2015. The escape triggered a massive three-week manhunt across the North Country region of upstate New York. Matt was shot and killed by law enforcement. Sweat was captured two days later near the Canadian border, having been shot and wounded by a state trooper.

Following his recapture, Sweat faced additional charges related to the escape and was subsequently transferred within the New York Department of Corrections system. His current placement at Mid State Correctional Facility in Marcy, New York is confirmed and reflected accurately in the InmateAid system.

If the profile you found showed a release date that seemed inconsistent with what you expected, that can happen when inmate records are updated to reflect projected dates, modified sentences, or administrative placeholders in state systems. In Sweat's case, given the nature of his original conviction and the escape-related charges added afterward, any release date visible in public records should be interpreted cautiously.

The InmateAid profile is properly synced and all available services, including electronic messaging through the facility's approved platform, are accessible through our system for this inmate.
