A judge first meets people held behind bars at an advisement hearing — video is common. Most charges here are heard at the Grand County Combined Court, 307 Moffat Avenue, Hot Sulphur Springs, CO 80451. The clerk answers at 970-725-3357.

A judge may assign the Colorado State Public Defender if someone has no money for counsel. The local defender office is at 970-879-0645.

The jail store sells snacks, hygiene items and writing supplies. Pick whatever way the lockup accepts. Steps: sending money and commissary.

Any federal arrest that starts in Grand County doesn't remain in the state courts. Its hearings are kept at the Alfred A. Arraj U.S. Courthouse in Denver, 901 19th Street, Denver, CO 80294; its clerk is at 303-844-3433. Not long after being arrested, the charged person meets a U.S. magistrate judge at a first appearance.

You won't find a bail chart here. In place of that, the court sets a detention review hearing to see if the one held goes home before trial and under what rules. Until then, most federal prisoners are kept in one of the county jails by agreement with the Marshals Service. To ask their location, phone the Marshals at 303-728-7800. When there is a sentence to prison, the federal BOP system becomes the custodian, and the BOP inmate locator names the spot.

1. During booking, fingerprints are checked in federal systems that ICE can search.

2. If ICE decides to act, it submits a hold using Form I-247A.

3. With Form I-247A, ICE asks the Grand jail for up to 48 more hours. The 48 hours run around the clock, with holidays and weekends counted.

4. State law in Colorado, C.R.S. 24-76.6-102, states a jail cannot hold anyone longer just because ICE asked. So Grand County releases the person when the local case allows except when another legal reason calls for more time.

5. ICE agents may show up at the moment of release to pick the defendant up. If that doesn't happen, the detained person simply leaves.

No A-number? The online locator takes a name, the country of birth and the birth date.

ICE shows the Aurora contract facility at 3130 North Oakland Street, Aurora, CO 80010, phone 303-361-6612.

Once a prison term is ordered, your loved one stays in the county jail until CDOC transfers them. In CDOC reception, people are screened and classified.

After classification, they're sent to a prison that matches that level. Try Colorado's offender search; our Colorado prisons page lists each prison's address.

No. Grand posts no inmate list online, so no Grand mugshots are posted. VINELink (Grand County) tells you custody status only. Journalists asking for a mugshot kept off the roster can reach out to the Grand County sheriff's office (using the jail phone) at 970-725-3343.

An ICE booking photo must be requested through ICE's online FOIA form, following which ICE has to approve the request.

Federal jail photos are never released to ordinary people and reporters. Only one exception exists: the Marshals Service, which takes federal jail photos, can put out such a photo for a fugitive, if it helps arrest them or warn people, or whenever there is an immediate public safety threat.
