Cody, Wyoming, in Park County, has about 10,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). In Wyoming the public criminal record is the court file, kept by the Clerk of District Court; the statewide criminal history kept by the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation is released only to its subject and to the employers and agencies the law allows. This guide says where each record of a criminal case from Cody is kept and how it is seen.
This guide covers the court file, the statewide record, local arrest records, the crimes behind the records, the prosecutor, sex offender registry, records requests and common questions.

Arrest Records Kept Locally in Cody
