↑ Back to the question list10. Which court takes federal charges from Trinity County?
Officers from agencies like the FBI or the U.S. Marshals handle federal arrests. This county falls under the Eastern District of California's Sacramento Division, so cases happen downtown in Sacramento, 501 I Street, Sacramento, CA 95814. The clerk there answers at 916-930-4000. An initial appearance comes fast in front of the U.S. magistrate judge. Expect an interview from a pretrial officer; the court gets the results. Federal court uses no preset bail list. The judge settles release and its conditions in a bail hearing following the federal Bail Reform Act.
Try the local roster, where a Marshals hold may show. Meanwhile, the Marshals often place them in a private jail under contract. Phoning the Marshals at 916-930-2030 will confirm where they're held; the office is at 501 I Street, Suite 5600, Sacramento, CA 95814. If the judge orders prison time, the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) decides the facility. Find them with the BOP's online locator when they arrive.
↑ Back to the question list11. ICE detainer: the steps for families
- ICE hears about an arrest through booking prints deputies send. ICE can then issue a detainer with jail staff.
- Through a detainer, ICE requests that jailers keep your loved one for immigration officers up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released (8 CFR 287.7(d)). Weaverville jail staff follow SB 54, the state Values Act, so the person goes home when the local case allows, and ICE gets custody only through a judge's warrant or qualifying serious felony history.
- Even with bond posted, this hold stays on file.
- Officers from ICE may collect them inside that window. If nobody comes, staff should release the person.
- Look up the person at the locator once ICE takes custody, using the alien number (A-number) with home country. The locator can also search with the person's legal name, native country and DOB if the alien number (A-number) is unknown.
- Where they are sent is ICE's call.
- Questions about where they are can go to the ICE field office in San Francisco, which covers Northern California: 630 Sansome Street, Room 590, San Francisco, CA 94111, 415-365-8800.
12. How will a move from the Weaverville jail to the CDCR work?
Prison sentences fall to the state prison system, the CDCR. They often wait in the Weaverville jail for a state transfer. Their first CDCR stop is a reception center. During classification, the CDCR checks security level, health and mental health care, and any gang affiliation. Their next move is a prison that meets their needs.
You can search for the person by full name in the CDCR locator. For prison details, open California state prisons.
↑ Back to the question list13. Can I look up Trinity County mugshots on the web?
For Trinity mugshots, call the jail at 530-623-8124. Trinity on VINELink covers custody status but not pictures.
Penal Code 13665 sets the state rule. Social media is what it covers. Most nonviolent arrests fall under it. Police can't post those mugshots online there. Photos posted there expire after 14 days. A judge can also allow a post. The rule skips the sheriff's own site. Most sheriffs in California skip photos anyway.
Non-public booking photos are handled by sheriff's staff; media may call 530-623-3740. The public and the press cannot obtain federal mugshots usually. The exceptions are narrow. The Marshals may post a jail photo to find a fugitive or escaped inmate, for pressing public safety, or if release could help make an arrest or warn the area. An ICE jail photo is only released after a records request to ICE that ICE approves.
↑ Back to the question list14. Which agency arrested them in Trinity County?
- Trinity County Sheriff's Office: 530-623-3740
- Trinity County Sheriff's Office records lobby: 530-623-2611
15. Would a Junction City warrant arrest go to Tom Bell Road?
It would. Sheriff's deputies serve warrants along the back roads and book people at the Tom Bell Road facility, with Junction City and Douglas City arrests coming in the same way. The deputies run warrant checks by phone and include statewide records. The court's online services take payments, while the Court Street clerk (530-623-1208) answers case questions and talks through a new hearing. If you're wanted, counsel can arrange your surrender, which saves a long ride in the back of a patrol car.
