Summit County Detention Facility Inmate Search

Want to find out whether you have a warrant in Summit County or anywhere in Colorado? Begin with Crimewatch. For information on a court case involving you or someone you know, use the official Colorado source. Crimewatch only lists warrants from agencies that post there, so it isn’t a complete record of every active warrant.

Defendants charged with non-capital offenses in Summit County and throughout Colorado are generally eligible for reasonable bail, while those charged with petty or traffic offenses usually have no monetary bail requirement. Colorado statutes list several factors judges consider:

• The defendant’s finances and job.
• Family ties and length of time living in the area.
• The nature and severity of the offense.
• Prior criminal record.

For an inmate’s exact bail amount, call the Summit County Detention Facility at 970-453-2232. Bond schedules vary by judicial district in Colorado, but this sample bond schedule gives a sense of typical amounts. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond, or may release an offender on personal recognizance.

While licensed for 93 inmates, the Summit County Detention Facility often exceeds that number, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails in Colorado turn over at least 35-40% of their inmates each month, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months. Approximately 8-9% remain incarcerated for six to twelve months. Those held longer than a year are typically facing serious charges such as rape or murder, which take longer to prepare for trial, so offenders arrested in this county on those charges stay in one of the Summit County facilities much longer.

Law enforcement agencies in Summit County arrest and detain approximately 1,860 offenders every year.

Steps to pay bail in Summit County

After an arrest, individuals are brought to Summit County Detention Facility in Breckenridge for processing. Following this, three possible outcomes exist:

1. The individual may be released without posting bail, with a promise to appear in court.
2. The individual could be held in jail until their court date.
3. Bail or bond can be posted for release; for more information, contact 970-453-2232.

Bail payment can be handled through various means.

• Pay a cash bond in full at the bonding window inside the jail or at the clerk of court, by cash, cashier's check or money order; a lobby kiosk or online bond vendor often takes debit and credit cards for an extra fee, and you should bring the inmate's full name and booking number (the jail can be reached at 970-453-2232).
• Licensed bail bond agents in Summit County are available for assistance.
• Land or a home can often serve as bond collateral: the owner provides a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value showing clear title and equity of at least the bond amount, commonly double, and the court that set bail approves the pledge.
