Steps for paying a bond are on our Eagle bond guide.

A judge usually first sees people kept in custody at a first appearance hearing — video is common. State charges go to the Eagle County Justice Center, 885 Chambers Avenue, Eagle, CO 81631. Phone the clerk at 970-328-6373 with case questions.

Yes, if a judge decides the inmate cannot afford one. Call the public defender office at 970-468-9363.

Visits are booked ahead of time. Hours and rules can change, so phone 970-328-8564 before you go. Read visiting rules and remote visits.

Calls go out from the jail only. Prepaid accounts pay for calls and messages. Guides: calls, messages, tablets.

The jail store offers snacks, soap and writing supplies. Deposit options vary; see money deposits and the commissary guide.

Mark the envelope with their full name and inmate number. Skip anything taped on. Check the mail rules first.

A youth under 18 is handled by juvenile court, not adult court. The state's youth center that covers the area is the Betty K. Marler Youth Services Center 303-987-4525). Staff at the sheriff's office will inform a guardian where the teen is held; call 970-328-8500.

For daily medicine, call 970-328-8564 so medical staff hears about it. The pharmacy name helps medical staff check.

A federal charge out of Eagle County doesn't go through the local court system. Hearings are booked into the Alfred A. Arraj U.S. Courthouse in Denver, 901 19th Street, Denver, CO 80294 — the court clerk can be reached at 303-844-3433. Shortly after the arrest, the accused faces a U.S. magistrate judge for a first hearing.

Federal judges skip the bail chart. Rather, the judge calls a short detention hearing and decides if the person walks out while waiting for trial and what the terms are. Meanwhile, lots of federal defendants stay in a local jail under contract to the U.S. Marshals. To find which jail has them, call the Marshals on 303-728-7800. After a federal judge orders prison, the Bureau of Prisons, or BOP, steps in; its BOP inmate locator names which prison.

Step one: When someone is booked, prints are checked in federal databases shared with ICE.

Step two: Once ICE shows interest, it files a hold request using Form I-247A.

Step three: The form asks for 48 extra hours at most beyond the normal release time. That time counts without a break, including holidays and weekends.

Step four: Colorado's statute, C.R.S. 24-76.6-102, makes it clear that jails can't hold a person longer only because ICE asked. So Eagle County lets the detained person go on schedule unless a court order is in place.

Step five: ICE agents may show up as the person leaves and take custody. If that doesn't happen, your loved one is released.

Finding them: search the ICE online locator using the A-number plus birth country; or try full name, birth country and birth date.

A detention center ICE uses is the Denver Contract Detention Facility, 3130 North Oakland Street, Aurora, CO 80010. Info: 303-361-6612, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.; detainees can't receive calls.

The Denver field office sits at 12445 East Caley Avenue, Centennial, CO 80111; phone 720-873-2899.

After a DOC sentence, they stay at the jail until CDOC moves them. At CDOC reception, people are tested and given a custody level.

With a rating set, that person is sent to a facility suited to that level. Use Colorado's offender search; the prison directory gives each prison's address.

The Eagle jail search is the place to check. Eagle records there show booking photos (mugshots). Journalists seeking a booking photo that isn't online can get in touch with the Eagle County sheriff's office on 970-328-8500.

Any ICE mugshot can only be requested on the ICE records form, and ICE must give its approval.

Federal jail photos stay private from the public and reporters. One exception applies: the U.S. Marshals Service, which takes federal jail photos, may put out one about a wanted fugitive to help arrest them or alert people; it might also do so whenever there is an immediate threat to the safety of the public.
