Back to questions ↑What happens after a federal arrest in Teller County?
A federal case out of Teller County does not stay in the local court system. Hearings happen inside the U.S. courthouse in Colorado Springs, 212 North Wahsatch Avenue, Suite 300, Colorado Springs, CO 80903; its clerk is at 719-471-3387. A first hearing comes soon after booking, with a U.S. magistrate judge at a first appearance.
There is no fixed bail table. Rather, the magistrate judge runs a detention hearing to weigh whether the one held stays locked up until trial and what rules apply. Federal defendants often wait in a county jail paid by the Marshals. To learn which jail, call the Marshals at 719-633-2037. When prison time is ordered, the federal prison agency, the BOP, picks the prison; the BOP inmate locator shows which prison.
Back to questions ↑What if ICE puts a Teller County inmate on hold?
First: At booking, the fingerprints head to federal systems ICE has access to.
Next: If ICE wants the arrested person, it files an immigration detainer using Form I-247A with the jail.
Then: The detainer asks for up to 48 additional hours past release time. The 48 hours run hour by hour; Saturdays, Sundays and holidays still count.
But: Colorado's statute, C.R.S. 24-76.6-102, says jails cannot keep anyone longer merely because ICE sent a detainer. That means Teller County releases the person once the county case allows except if a court order says otherwise.
Finally: ICE agents can show up at the moment of release and pick the person up. When they don't show up, the detained person goes free.
Look up someone ICE holds through the ICE locator, entering the A-number and birth country.
A facility ICE lists is the Aurora detention center in Aurora, 3130 North Oakland Street, Aurora, CO 80010. ICE lists the detainee line as 303-361-6612, weekdays 8 to 4; detainees don't receive calls.
Reach ICE's Denver field office, 12445 East Caley Avenue, Centennial, CO 80111, at 720-873-2899; it covers Colorado and Wyoming.
Back to questions ↑Where does someone from Teller County go after a prison sentence?
Following a DOC sentence, transfer isn't instant; the arrested person often sits in the jail for a time. CDOC intake sets security level; it can take weeks.
Once classified, they're sent to a prison that fits that level. Use the CDOC offender search — for facility addresses, open our Colorado state prison page.
Back to questions ↑Does Teller County show mugshots online?
Look at the Teller County roster for the person. Each Teller record shows a booking photo (mugshot). News media looking for a jail photo that is not online can contact the Teller County sheriff's office on 719-687-7770.
Any ICE mugshot needs to be sought through ICE's records request page, and ICE then decides.
Federal booking photos stay out of reach of the general public and reporters. One exception exists: the Marshals Service, which takes photos at federal bookings, may release a photo when someone is an escapee, when it would help arrest them or warn individuals, or in case of an immediate danger to public safety.
