Alamosa County Inmate Search
The official Alamosa County jail page states that the Sheriff's Department operates the county jail and that, to see if someone is in the county jail, a person may call 719-589-6608. No official online Alamosa County jail roster or inmate profile search was located in the captured official sources. That means the local inmate lookup path is phone confirmation through the jail, followed by court docket search or records request if the person needs filed charges, hearings, or documents.
The Alamosa County Sheriff's Office and jail are at 1315 17th Street, Alamosa, CO 81101. Sheriff Robert Jackson is listed as County Sheriff. The sheriff's office main phone is 719-589-6608, emergency is 911, and non-emergency dispatch is 719-589-5807. Front-office hours changed to Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., while the county notice said bonding office hours and lobby visitation kiosk hours remained unchanged.
Local custody is only one possibility. Sentenced prisoners may be in Colorado Department of Corrections custody, and federal prisoners are searched through the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Those systems do not replace a county jail call for recent arrests, pretrial detainees, local bond questions, or short-term holds.
Confirm Alamosa County Custody
Because no official online roster was found, the best local search is a prepared phone call to the jail. Have enough detail to help staff distinguish the person from others. If the jail does not have the person, use the court docket for case activity, Colorado DOC for sentenced prison custody, and BOP for federal custody.
- Call Alamosa County Jail at 719-589-6608 and ask for current county custody confirmation.
- Provide full name, date of birth if known, and any booking, arrest, or case context that can help staff identify the person.
- If the person is not in county custody, search the Colorado Judicial docket for filed charges or hearings.
- Use Colorado DOC offender search for sentenced state-prison custody.
- Use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator for federal custody from 1982 to present.
- Use an Alamosa County CORA/CCJRA request for sheriff or jail records that are not available by phone and can be released by law.
The Alamosa County jail visitation page is shown below as an official jail operations source.
The visitation source confirms local jail rules and schedules, but it does not provide a searchable inmate roster.
Alamosa Inmate Lookup Fields
The official local search field is not a website form. It is the information needed for a jail phone lookup. The research file also identifies state and federal web tools for people who may be outside the county jail. Treat these systems as separate custody levels, not one combined roster.
| Lookup channel | Field or method | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alamosa County Jail | Phone call to 719-589-6608 | Yes for local custody | Provide full name, DOB if known, and booking or arrest context. |
| Colorado Judicial docket | Name, case number, attorney, county, date | At least one filter plus date | Shows hearings and case events, not jail custody. |
| Colorado DOC | Name or DOC offender criteria | Optional for sentenced prisoners | Used after a person is transferred to state custody. |
| BOP inmate locator | BOP number or name, race, sex, age | Optional for federal prisoners | Covers federal inmates incarcerated from 1982 to present. |
| CORA/CCJRA request | Requestor and record-description fields | Needed for records request | Release may be limited by criminal justice exemptions and redaction. |
Alamosa Inmate Record Fields
No official Alamosa County online inmate profile was available to inspect. Do not assume mugshots, booking numbers, bond amounts, housing units, release dates, or charge tables are posted online by the county. Those details may exist in jail records, court records, or sheriff records, but public access depends on the source and release rules.
| Field | How to verify it |
|---|---|
| Current custody | Call Alamosa County Jail at 719-589-6608. |
| Booking date | Ask the jail or request releasable jail records under CORA/CCJRA. |
| Filed charges | Search Colorado Judicial dockets or request Complaint/Information or Ticket from the court. |
| Bond information | Confirm through jail or court, depending on who set the bond. |
| Next hearing | Use Colorado Judicial docket search or call Alamosa Combined Court at 719-589-4996. |
| Sentence or disposition | Request the Disposition/Sentence Order or ROA from the court. |
| State prison status | Use Colorado DOC offender search after transfer to DOC custody. |
For court charges after an arrest, the docket and court document request process are often more useful than the jail call. The jail confirms custody; the court confirms filed charges and outcomes.
Alamosa County Jail Facility
The official county sources identify one county jail operated by the Sheriff's Department. No capacity figure was located in the captured official material, so no capacity is listed here.

County Jail vs DOC vs BOP
Alamosa County inmate search should distinguish local, state, and federal custody. The county jail is for local custody, recent arrests, pretrial detainees, short-term holds, and people awaiting court. Colorado DOC search is for people sentenced to state prison. BOP search is for federal inmates. A person may move from one system to another as the case progresses.
| System | Use it for | Official source |
|---|---|---|
| Alamosa County Jail | Current local custody, recent arrests, local bond, visitation. | Call 719-589-6608. |
| Colorado DOC | Sentenced state prisoners after transfer from county custody. | Colorado DOC offender search |
| Colorado inmate locator service | State service page that links users to the DOC inmate locator. | Colorado locate an inmate service |
| Federal BOP | Federal inmates incarcerated from 1982 to present. | BOP inmate locator |
The Colorado Department of Corrections offender search is shown below.
DOC search should be used only for state-prison custody, not for a new Alamosa County jail booking.
The state service page at Colorado locate an inmate also directs users to the DOC inmate locator.
The state service page is a gateway. It does not create a county jail roster for Alamosa County.
Booking Bond and Court Dates
After an arrest, the jail side and the court side move on linked tracks. The jail may have custody, booking, visitor, bond, and commissary information. The court record may show charges, advisement, appearance on bond, arraignment, pretrial conference, disposition, and sentencing. If charges have been filed, Colorado Judicial docket search can show hearing dates for Alamosa County cases, and the court record/document request form can be used for Complaint/Information, Ticket, Disposition/Sentence Order, Protection Order, and ROA records.
The official jail page includes a specific bond-fee notice. Bond fees, booking fees, and other fees or debts do not need to be paid to secure release on a money bond. A payor needs to pay only the bond amount. If a payor chooses not to pay fees at bonding, a $10 bond fee and maximum 3.5% credit card fee may later be charged as a debt to the defendant. The current jail or court should be contacted before payment because release conditions can vary by case.
Alamosa Jail Visitation Schedule
The jail visitation page states that all visits are 20 minutes, first-come first-served, and recorded and monitored by detention center staff. People housed on suicide watch are not allowed visits without express consent of the mental health unit. Visitors who appear under the influence of drugs or alcohol will not be approved, and visits can be ended at staff discretion.
| Day | Lobby visit hours | Web visit notes |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web schedule partly uncaptured in research, verify with jail. |
| Tuesday | 3:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits through Inmate Canteen, verify current times. |
| Wednesday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits through Inmate Canteen, verify current times. |
| Thursday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits through Inmate Canteen, verify current times. |
| Friday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits through Inmate Canteen, verify current times. |
| Saturday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits only listed as 7:00 a.m.-11:00 p.m. |
| Sunday | 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. | Web visits only listed as 8:00 a.m.-11:00 p.m. |
Visitors must have picture ID and be cleared for warrants through the detention deputy on duty. Clothing must be appropriate and not unduly provocative, suggestive, or revealing. Minor children must be supervised by a responsible adult. Communication with inmates by placards or hand signals outside the facility can cancel the visit and the next visit.
Alamosa Inmate Canteen
The official jail page links Inmate Canteen for depositing money into an inmate commissary account. The captured research did not provide a local fee table, deposit limit, kiosk rule, phone deposit rule, or retailer list, so those details should be checked with the vendor and jail before payment. Do not assume a deposit posts instantly or that every payment method is accepted.
The jail rules also limit what can be brought for inmates. The official jail page states that inmates are allowed only white clothing, underwear, t-shirts, and similar items, and other color clothing will not be accepted. The visitation research also notes that prohibited lobby booth items were only partly captured, so current rules should be verified with the official jail page or by phone before visiting.
Federal Inmate Search
Federal custody is separate from Alamosa County jail custody. The BOP inmate locator searches federal inmates incarcerated from 1982 to present, using either a number search or name-based details such as first, middle, and last name, race, sex, and age. A federal prisoner may have a Colorado connection without being held in Alamosa County.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator source is shown below.
Use BOP for federal custody only. County jail staff cannot update a federal locator record.
The manifest also captured the BOP FCI Englewood facility page, a Colorado federal facility outside Alamosa County.
That facility source helps distinguish federal custody in Colorado from local detention in Alamosa County.
Alamosa Jail Records Requests
If a phone call confirms custody but a person needs a releasable record, the request may fall under Alamosa County's CORA/CCJRA process. The county request form asks for requestor name, company if any, address, city, state, zip, phone, fax or cellphone if used, document name, and a specific record description. Include date of incident, location, booking context, case number, and the agency involved when known.
Criminal justice records are not always released in full. Active investigations, victim information, personal identifiers, juvenile records, medical or mental-health details, officer-safety information, and sealed court matters may be withheld or redacted. For filed charges, hearing dates, and court outcomes, the Colorado Judicial docket and court record/document request form are the right channels. For custody, visitation, and commissary, call the jail.
