Records Unit

The Weld County Sheriff’s Office Records Unit is a 14-member team responsible for managing a variety of law enforcement records for the agency. Like the Evidence Unit, the Records Unit was formally established on Jan. 1, 2021, after more than 30 years of sharing records management duties with the Greeley Police Department.

Records technicians are responsible for processing information received by the FBI, CBI and other law enforcement agencies nationwide from the National Crime Information Center and the Colorado Crime Information Center. Records technicians process and manage police reports, arrest records, citations, warrants and information related to motor vehicle accidents.

Records technicians also serve as the custodian of various public records and facilitate the release of those records to the public in compliance with the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act. Interior of WCSO Records Unit
