Colorado has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.

The Colorado Criminal History and Your Own Copy

Colorado is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the state runs an online name-based criminal history check open to the public, through the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.

To see your own record, the route is a name-based or fingerprint-based request to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at cbi.colorado.gov/records-background-checks/internet-criminal-histor....

Arrest Records Kept Locally in Castle Pines

The Douglas County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Castle Rock, Parker and Lone Tree keep the arrest records in and around Castle Pines: the report and the booking record of each arrest stay with the agency that made it, separate from the court file and from the state repository.

The Aurora Police Department and the Littleton Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Douglas County, so their arrests are not broken out for Douglas County here.

Together, the four agencies in Douglas County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 5,515 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.

The agencies and their counts, year by year, are in Castle Pines arrest records.

The Sex Offender Registry for Castle Pines

Registered sex offenders living in Castle Pines are listed on the Colorado Sex Offender Registry, run by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation at apps.colorado.gov/apps/dps/sor. Only sexually violent predators, multiple offenders and adults convicted of felony sex offenses appear on the statewide site; local police and sheriffs hold the full list.

Registration itself is done in person with the local agency where the registrant lives: the sheriff's office, or the city police in a city with its own department.

Asking an Agency in Douglas County for a Record

An arrest report, a booking record or a local criminal history letter comes from the agency that holds it, not from the court.

Under the Colorado Open Records Act a county office must answer a request within 3 working days, extendable to 7 when there are extenuating circumstances, and it may charge research and retrieval time after the first hour, plus copying. The county records request page SearchSystems verified is at douglasco.gov/board-county-commissioners/transparency/open-records (page title: Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) | Douglas County).
