Twin Falls County, Idaho, has about 97,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Twin Falls County depends on where the incident happened: the Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Idaho Public Records Act requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Twin Falls County

In Twin Falls County that is the Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.

What the Idaho Public Records Act Requires
Under the Idaho Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 3 working days, or 10 when more time is needed, and it may charge copying after the first 100 pages and labor after the first two hours. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the Prosecuting Attorney, 208-736-4020, handles discovery for pending cases.
