Information about the release dates of offenders in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, formerly the Texas Department of Corrections or TDC, is in the public domain. The TDCJ maintains an online search page that allows you to search for the location and release date of any offender or parolee. You can also find out this information by phone or email. You need to keep in mind that the TDCJ can only supply you with the projected release date – the exact release date may change during the offenders' incarceration.
