Gunnison County Jail Roster

Gunnison County publishes current jail custody through the Sheriff's Office Detention Services page and the county Inmate Daily Roster archive. The current roster opens as a PDF "Inmate Status Report." It is generated for the Gunnison County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Adam Murdie, and carries an Omnigo Software footer. It is not a name-search web app, and it does not create a clickable inmate profile.

The roster is best read as a point-in-time snapshot. The inspected current report showed a print date and time on the footer, then grouped rows for each person in custody. Released people may drop from the current roster when a later PDF replaces it, and the county did not publish a rule stating how long released inmates stay listed. If a name is missing, call detention staff before treating the absence as proof of release.

The county roster covers people held in the Gunnison County Detention Center. It does not cover a person already transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections, a federal prisoner in Bureau of Prisons custody, a federal pretrial defendant held under U.S. Marshals authority, or an immigration detainee searched through ICE ODLS.

The county's Detention Services page is the official starting point for roster access. It also shows the jail's linked money, bail, and visit vendor, which helps confirm that the roster is part of the county detention workflow.

Gunnison County Detention Services is shown in the official county screenshot below.

The screenshot matches the roster pathway used for current Gunnison County inmate records and also shows why money, bail, and video visits should be checked through county-linked channels.

Use Gunnison County Inmate Records

The Gunnison County inmate records workflow is simple, but it is not the same as typing a name into a search form. Open the county detention page, use the roster PDF link, then use the PDF viewer's find command if the report is more than one page. A person with several charges may have several rows, so read all rows under the same name before relying on the bond or court information.

1. Open the official Detention Services page.
2. Find the Inmate Daily Roster section and open the current PDF link.
3. Check the roster print date and time, because the report is static.
4. Use browser or PDF find for a last name, first name, charge, or inmate number.
5. Read all charge rows tied to the same person, including bond type and disposition.
6. Call the jail at (970) 641-1108 if the roster is stale, unclear, or missing the person.

A roster charge can differ from the final court charge. For filed case documents after a booking, use the Colorado Judicial Branch docket and records process rather than the jail roster alone.

Gunnison County Roster Fields

The Gunnison County jail roster has no live search fields. That is a key limit. The practical "search" is the viewer's find tool within the PDF. The county does not provide last-name fields, booking-number fields, filters, pagination controls, advanced search, reset buttons, or a profile screen.

Note: A PDF search can miss a person if a name is misspelled, abbreviated, or listed with a middle-name variant.

Gunnison County Inmate Record Details

A public Gunnison County inmate record is a roster row group, not a full booking file. It gives enough data to identify current custody, scheduled court activity, bond information, and status. It does not show a photo, full demographics, home address, date of birth, housing unit, arrest narrative, arresting agency field, or every statute number. When a court or report file is needed, use the correct custodian.

Gunnison County Custody Channels

Different custody systems answer different questions. The county roster is for the Gunnison County Detention Center. The CDOC Offender Search is for sentenced Colorado state-prison custody after transfer. The BOP inmate locator is for federal custody from 1982 forward. ICE ODLS is for immigration detainees, while VINELink Colorado is a notification support tool rather than the record custodian.

No official Gunnison County Sheriff mobile app was found in the research sweep. Use the roster PDF, detention phone line, in-person sheriff counter, county records request process, and the state or federal locators instead of looking for an app-only jail roster.

Gunnison County Jail Facility

The only detention facility identified in the official Gunnison County facility map is the Gunnison County Detention Center, operated by the Gunnison County Sheriff's Office. No official source located a separate city jail, regional jail, state prison, BOP facility, ICE detention facility, or U.S. Marshals contract detention center inside the county. Local arrests usually route to the county detention center for jail custody.

For records not shown in the roster, Gunnison County routes Sheriff's Office report copies through the County Attorney/open-records process. Requests may be submitted online, by email at records@gunnisoncounty.org, by fax at (970) 641-7696, by mail to 200 E. Virginia Avenue, Gunnison, CO 81230, Attention County Attorney, or in person at the County Attorney's office. Local records checks are separate and must be obtained in person at the Sheriff's Office.

Gunnison County Booking Process

Booking starts after arrest or court commitment and transport to the Gunnison County Detention Center. Jail staff receive the person under the sheriff's custody authority, complete intake, control property under jail rules, and assess the county's booking fee. The handbook states that a person cannot bond until intake is complete.

Classification, housing, and privileges are initially determined by a deputy, usually within 72 hours of arrival. The person moves to housing as space allows. The public roster may show the person after the next PDF is generated, so a new booking may not appear at the exact moment intake begins. Bond, holds, sentence dates, court orders, or alcohol-test requirements can affect release timing.

Pretrial

Case is pending before conviction or sentence.

Hold

Another legal reason or jurisdiction may prevent release.

PR bond

Personal recognizance release, usually based on a court promise and conditions rather than full cash payment.

Gunnison County Visitation Records

Visitation facts matter when using inmate records because a current custody result does not mean in-person visits are open. The county Detention Services page states that there is no in-person visitation until further notice and directs users to InmateCanteen. The inmate handbook also lists video visit windows and professional access rules.

Visits are a privilege. They may be canceled or denied for dress, safety, security, emergencies, rule issues, or staff discretion.

Contact Gunnison County Inmates

Personal mail should use the jail's inmate-mail format: Gunnison County Detention Center, INMATE MAIL, 510 W. Bidwell Ave., Gunnison, CO 81230. Personal incoming mail is opened, inspected, and photocopied, with originals placed in property. Legal mail is opened and inspected in front of the inmate. Inmate-to-inmate or correctional-facility mail is not allowed.

Pod phones require funds on the inmate account. The handbook says there are no collect calls, personal calls are monitored and recorded, verified attorney calls are not monitored, and calls are limited to 15 minutes. Phones may be unavailable during meals, cleanup, lights-out, or security needs.

Gunnison County Commissary Funds

Gunnison County links InmateCanteen for video visitation, inmate money, commissary, and bail deposits. The handbook references commissary items such as stamps, envelopes, and paper, and it lists a commissary spending limit. The public capture did not show a vendor fee table, so confirm current costs in the vendor portal before sending funds.

InmateCanteen is the county-linked vendor portal shown for inmate money, commissary, video visitation, and bail deposits.

The vendor screenshot supports the county access chain, but custody status should still be confirmed through the roster or jail before money, bail, or visit steps are started.
