Englewood Quick Facts
Arapahoe County Handles Englewood Bookings
All Englewood arrests get processed at the Arapahoe County Detention Facility. The jail is at 7375 S Potomac St in Centennial, CO 80112. Englewood Police make arrests in the city. But the police do not operate a jail. Once someone is taken into custody, they get transported to the Arapahoe County jail for booking. The sheriff's office takes over from there. Phone for the jail is (720) 874-3500.
The Arapahoe County Detention Facility is a large operation. It opened in 1987 and holds about 1,400 inmates. The facility is ACA accredited since 1991 and receives an average of 17,000 inmates each year from all parts of Arapahoe County. Englewood makes up a portion of those bookings. During intake, staff record the person's name, charges, date of birth, and address. A mugshot is taken. Fingerprints go to state and federal databases. A bond amount is set based on the charges. All of this data becomes part of the public record under Colorado law, so Englewood busted mugshots are accessible through the county system.
Note: Englewood Police arrest, but Arapahoe County Sheriff handles all booking and jail records in Centennial.
Search Englewood Mugshots
The Arapahoe County Sheriff provides online access to inmate information and booking records. The inmate information page lets you search for inmates, view charges, and check bond amounts. This covers everyone at the Arapahoe County jail, including people booked from Englewood arrests. The tool is free to use and does not need an account.
Use this portal to look up anyone currently held at the Arapahoe County detention facility after an Englewood arrest.
Arapahoe County also runs a separate records request portal for formal requests. You can submit requests online and pay with a credit card, debit card, or electronic check. This is the way to go if you need copies of older Englewood booking records or mugshots that are not in the current inmate database. The online portal speeds up the process compared to mailing in a written request.
If someone does not show up in the current inmate search, they have likely been released or bonded out. The live search only covers people in custody right now. For past Englewood busted mugshots and booking data, you need to file a records request through the portal or contact the sheriff's office directly.
Englewood Police Department
The Englewood Police Department is the primary law enforcement agency for the city. EPD patrols, investigates, and makes arrests within Englewood city limits. When an officer makes an arrest, they write a report. That report stays with the Englewood Police. The booking record goes to Arapahoe County. Two different agencies hold two different parts of the same case.
If you need the police report for an Englewood arrest, contact the Englewood Police Department directly. The incident report covers what happened and why the arrest was made. If you need the booking photo and jail record, go to the Arapahoe County Sheriff. Between the two agencies, you can put together a complete file on any Englewood arrest. For most people looking up Englewood busted mugshots, the county sheriff is the right starting point since that is where the booking photos and charges are held.
Englewood Arrest Records Access
Colorado's public records laws apply to all Englewood arrest data. The CCJRA says records of official action must be open. That covers arrests, charges, and case outcomes. You do not need to give a reason for your request. The Arapahoe County Sheriff has three business days to respond. Put your request in writing with the person's full name and any dates you know.
The first hour of staff research time is free under Colorado law. After that, fees kick in at up to $41.37 per hour. Copies cost $0.25 per page. The CBI page on the CCJRA and CORA explains both laws that govern access to criminal justice records in Colorado. The CCJRA covers booking data and mugshots. CORA covers other government records. Both laws push toward public access rather than secrecy. Most Englewood booking record requests are handled quickly, especially when you provide enough detail for staff to locate the right file.
Statewide Checks for Englewood
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation runs statewide criminal history checks for $6 at cbirecordscheck.com. Results cover all 64 counties. An Englewood arrest processed through Arapahoe County will show up. CBI checks are useful when you need data from more than one county or want to see a full criminal history for someone who may have records in multiple parts of the state.
CBI checks will not include sealed records. Processing takes a few business days. Fingerprint-based checks are also available but cost more and take longer. For a quick look at whether someone is currently in jail from an Englewood arrest, the Arapahoe County inmate search is faster. For a complete history, CBI is the better tool.
VINE is another option for tracking. Register at vinelink.com and set up alerts for anyone in the Arapahoe County jail. The service sends notifications by phone, email, or text when custody status changes. VINE is free and runs around the clock.
Sealing Englewood Arrest Records
Colorado law allows record sealing for certain Englewood arrests. Under C.R.S. 24-72-703, you petition the court to seal your record. The filing fee is $224. Fee waivers exist for people who qualify. Once sealed, an Englewood busted mugshot will not appear in public searches. The Arapahoe County inmate database will not show it. CBI will skip it in background checks. Law enforcement keeps access, but the general public does not.
Automatic sealing applies in some situations. If charges were never filed after an Englewood arrest, CBI may seal the record after one year for arrests made on or after January 1, 2022. Drug convictions have their own path under C.R.S. 24-72-704. Wait times vary by offense type. Not all records qualify. Violent felonies and some other charges cannot be sealed. The Colorado Judicial Branch has details on the petition process. Legal aid organizations serving the south Denver metro area can also help with sealing petitions if you cannot afford a private lawyer.
Englewood Mugshot Resources
Beyond the Arapahoe County tools, several other resources can help with Englewood arrest records. The Colorado Department of Corrections runs an offender search tool for anyone serving time in state prison. If an Englewood arrest led to a prison sentence, that person will appear in the DOC system with their photo and current facility. This tool only covers state inmates, not people in the county jail awaiting trial.
Court records for Englewood cases go through the 18th Judicial District, which covers Arapahoe County. Court records are separate from booking records. They include charges filed, hearing dates, plea deals, and sentencing details. The Colorado Judicial Branch provides access to court case data. Between the sheriff's booking records, the CBI statewide check, and the court system, you can piece together the full picture on any Englewood arrest.
