Alpine Arrest Records: Who Makes Arrests, Where People Are Booked and How to Get the Report

Who Makes Arrests in Alpine

The FBI lists no arrest reporting agency under the name of Alpine. In Utah County the county agency that reports arrests is the Utah County Sheriff's Office.

The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Utah County: Brigham Young University and Utah Valley University (campus police); Utah County Major Crimes Task Force and Utah County Attorney, Investigations Division (other).

Booking: Where People Arrested in Alpine Are Held

The county jail is where a person arrested in Alpine and kept in custody ends up, whichever agency made the arrest, though a city department may hold someone in its own cells first and a person cited and released at the scene is never booked. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and once the person is released or sentenced the record continues in the court file.

On an average day in 2023 the jail held about 490 people, down from about 600 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2023 was 1,172 beds, and it ran at 42 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.

SearchSystems opened and checked the custody page of the Utah County Sheriff's Office at sheriff.utahcounty.gov/corrections/inmateSearch (page title: Utah County Sheriff's Office Inmate Search), phone 801-851-4000, 3075 North Main Spanish Fork, UT 84660, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026.

That page is the place to look for someone who was booked recently; a person cited and released at the scene, or held only a few hours by a city department, will not be on it.

A sentence of more than a year is served in state prison; the Utah Department of Corrections lists its inmates at corrections.utah.gov/inmate-services/offender-search.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in Alpine

Whether someone was arrested in Alpine, and what came of it, shows up in three places: the custody page of the Utah County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the District Court for Utah County, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at utcourts.gov/en/court-records-publications/records/xchange.html); the County Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at atty.utahcounty.gov).

Statewide, MyCase and Xchange is free case lookup for parties through MyCase; the public Xchange search is by subscription.

Utah does not let the public search another person's statewide criminal history. The record kept by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification goes to the person it belongs to and to employers and agencies the law authorizes; for everyone else the court's own case index is the public record of an arrest that led to a charge.

Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Alpine

The report of an arrest is released by the agency that made it; the jail and the court hold their own records of the same event, but not the report. Under the Government Records Access and Management Act the agency must answer within 10 business days, or 5 when the request is expedited, and it may charge copying and staff time after the first quarter hour.
