Denver County Jail

Everything from an inmate’s criminal charges and bond amount to their visitation eligibility and mugshot can be found on the Denver County Jail’s Official Jail Inmate Roster. You can also call the jail at 720-913-3600. In addition, you can look up court dockets, which list scheduled criminal cases, for Denver County and every other county in Colorado.

Denver County Jail Inmate Search

Is someone you know facing a warrant in Denver County or elsewhere in Colorado? Search Crimewatch. For information about their court case, check the official Colorado court dockets. Because not all agencies post warrants on Crimewatch, an empty search doesn’t rule out a warrant.

Most criminal defendants in Denver County and across Colorado who are charged with a non-capital offense are eligible for reasonable bail, and those charged with petty or traffic offenses usually don’t need to post monetary bail at all. Colorado law directs judges to consider several factors when setting bail:

• Whether the defendant is employed and what they can afford.
• Ties to the community, including family and how long they’ve lived there.
• The severity of the current charge.
• Past offenses and criminal record.

You can learn an inmate’s bail amount by calling the Denver County Jail at 720-913-3600. A sample Colorado bond schedule is another way to estimate typical amounts, although each judicial district sets its own. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond, or can release the offender on personal recognizance.

The Denver County Jail is licensed for 2000 inmates, but it often has to take in many more offenders, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in Colorado, at least 35-40% of inmates turn over each month, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months, while around 8-9% stay six to twelve months. Those held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain at one of the Denver County facilities much longer.

Approximately 83,700 offenders are arrested and detained annually by Denver County law enforcement agencies.

How to post bail for someone arrested in Denver County

When an individual is arrested and booked at Denver County Jail in Denver, the outcomes include:

1. Release without bail, under the condition they appear for their court date.
2. Remain in custody until the court appearance.
3. Post a bail or bond for release. Contact 720-913-3600 for specific bail amounts.

Bail payments can be made in different ways.

• Cash bonds must be paid in full, either at the jail's bonding window or with the clerk of court, and are accepted as cash, cashier's check or money order; many jails also process cards through a lobby kiosk or online vendor for a fee, so bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and phone the jail at 720-913-3600 if needed.
• You can work with a licensed bail bondsman in Denver County.
• Many courts allow a property bond, letting an owner put up land or a home after proving clear title and equity of at least the bond (often double) through a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, with approval from the court that set bail.
