Park County Booking Report Search

Park County booking reports are managed by the sheriff's office in Fairplay, a mountain community west of Denver near the center of Colorado. The county covers a large area of mountainous terrain with a population of about 18,000 people. Booking reports here are created when someone is arrested and processed at the Park County jail. They capture the full details of the arrest including charges, the arresting agency, and personal information. These are public records under Colorado's Criminal Justice Records Act. You can get them by calling the sheriff or using the state's online search tools.

Park County Sheriff Booking Records

The Park County Sheriff's Office handles all bookings and keeps the records on file. Their phone number is 719-836-2494. The office is in Fairplay. Park County does not have any municipal police departments, so the sheriff is the sole law enforcement agency for the entire county. Every arrest leads to a booking at the Park County jail. The booking report includes the person's name, date of birth, charges, and the date and time of the arrest.

There is no online inmate lookup for Park County. To check if someone is in custody or has a recent booking, call the sheriff's office. Let them know the person's full name. A date of birth helps if the name is common. The staff can check the system and give you basic information. For a complete copy of the booking report with all details, ask about submitting a records request. The sheriff's office can explain the process.

Park County sits between the Denver metro area and the mountain resort towns. It gets some pass-through traffic on Highway 285, which can lead to arrests of people from outside the area. Those bookings still go through the Park County Sheriff and the records are kept locally.

Note: Fairplay is at 10,000 feet elevation. If you plan to visit the sheriff's office in person, plan for mountain conditions.

Park County Records and the CCJRA

Colorado's Criminal Justice Records Act gives the public access to booking reports. The law at C.R.S. § 24-72-301 says records of official actions are open for inspection. Bookings count as official actions. Section 24-72-302 requires arrest records to contain the person's name, charges, and arresting agency. These are the basics that the Park County Sheriff must disclose on request.

The timeline for getting records is straightforward. The agency has 3 business days to respond. They can ask for 7 more days if needed. Costs follow a set structure:

• First hour of research time is free
• Additional time at up to $41.37 per hour
• Paper copies $0.25 per page
• Must sign no-solicitation statement
• Electronic copies may be available at no extra charge

For a single booking report from Park County, the cost is usually nothing or very little since it takes minimal time to pull one record from the system.

Mugshots and Prison Records

Booking photos from Park County are public records. Colorado law at § 24-72-305.5 makes it a crime to post a mugshot online and demand money for removal. Fines can reach $1,000. But the law does not prevent the sheriff from giving you a copy of a booking photo when you make a proper records request.

If someone was booked in Park County and later went to state prison, you can find them through the CDOC offender search. This free tool covers current inmates in the Colorado state prison system. It shows where they are held, their sentence, and parole details. The CDOC record is separate from the county booking report but picks up where the booking report leaves off in terms of tracking the person through the system.

Sealed records will not appear in any search. Colorado courts can seal arrest records when charges are dropped or dismissed. The CBI removes sealed records from its database. The Park County Sheriff will not release a sealed record.
