About Bent County Released Inmates

Finding a released Bent County inmate can mean checking more than one system. A person may leave the sheriff's jail roster, appear in a court docket, show a custody change in Colorado VINE, or move into the Colorado Department of Corrections record system after a state-prison transfer. This private reference site organizes those release paths for Bent County, Colorado.

What This Site Covers

Bent County has a local jail and a separate state-prison facility with a similar county name. The Bent County Jail is operated by the Bent County Sheriff's Office, while Bent County Correctional Facility is operated by CoreCivic under contract with CDOC. Fort Lyon is included for correctional-history context because it was formerly used as a correctional facility, but it is not a current jail or prison lookup source. This site keeps those paths separate so readers do not use the wrong office for a release question.

What You Can Find Here

The pages focus on official and practical routes for checking release status or requesting records.

  • The home page explains the main Bent County release-record search path, including jail records, court records, Colorado VINE, and CDOC offender search.
  • Separate guides cover projected release dates, VINELink checks, and parole and probation.
  • Facility pages identify Bent County Jail, Bent County Correctional Facility, and the Fort Lyon former correctional facility.
  • Records guidance explains when to call the jail at 719-456-1363, when to use the Bent Combined Court, and when a state-prison question belongs with CDOC.

What This Site Cannot Do

This is a privately run reference site. It is not part of the Bent County Sheriff's Office, Bent County Jail, CDOC, CoreCivic, the Colorado Judicial Branch, Colorado VINE, CBI, or any other government agency.

  • It cannot release, hold, transfer, or locate a person in custody in real time.
  • It cannot post bond, schedule visitation, send money, or retrieve official booking records for you.
  • It cannot provide legal advice or interpret a court order for your situation.
  • It cannot guarantee that a phone number, address, fee, status, or agency page is current.

Use the originating office for confirmation. For a Bent County Jail release, start with the jail or sheriff records process. For a state-prison release from Bent County Correctional Facility, use CDOC and the appropriate parole or records channel.
