Washington County Probation

Washington County Probation Office is a supervision office, not a jail. It becomes relevant after release when the sentencing court orders probation, a deferred judgment, presentence services, or post-sentence monitoring through the Colorado Judicial Branch's 13th Judicial District. To verify that a released person was placed on probation, start with Washington Combined Court and then use the probation office only for permitted process and public-access questions.

Probation After Jail Release

A person released from Washington County Jail may be ordered to report to probation, but probation is not the same thing as parole and is not a current-custody roster. Probation is court-ordered supervision, often instead of a prison sentence or after a county jail sentence. Parole follows a Colorado Department of Corrections prison sentence and is tied to CDOC and the Colorado State Board of Parole.

The probation path belongs to court records first. A docket may show that probation was ordered, modified, revoked, terminated, or connected to a deferred judgment. If the person was sentenced to DOC instead, use CDOC Offender Search rather than this local probation office.

How to Confirm Probation

  1. Search the Colorado Judicial Branch docket for Washington County or Washington Combined Court.
  2. Look for sentencing, deferred judgment, probation, revocation, warrant, or termination entries.
  3. Use the probation office for allowed public/process questions, not as a general people-finder.
  4. If the issue is parole, use CDOC and the parole-board path instead.
  5. If custody status is still uncertain, check Colorado VINE and call Washington County Jail.

Public access to active supervision details can be limited. The docket is the public starting point for whether probation was ordered; the probation office can explain its current request and contact rules.

Probation Office Contact

Colorado Judicial Branch sources list Washington County Probation Office at 26861 Highway 34, P.O. Box 455, Akron, CO 80720. The location result gives phone 970-345-6847, fax 970-514-9763, and weekday hours of 8:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The 13th Judicial District page lists Chief Probation Officer Eric Ross at 970-526-3999 and eric.ross@judicial.state.co.us.

The district describes services including pre- and post-sentence assessment and evaluation, supervision, monitoring, pre-sentence investigations and reports, specialized supervision, adult regular supervision, juvenile supervision, Alcohol & Drug Driving Safety, and victim assistance coordination.

13th Judicial District Context

Washington County is part of Colorado's 13th Judicial District. The Judicial Branch page says the district provides services for seven counties and has full-time staff in Morgan, Logan, Yuma, Washington, and Kit Carson Counties, with part-time staff in Phillips and Sedgwick. That makes the local post-release path more probation-centered for many county releases than a jail-roster search would suggest.

If a person is believed to have violated probation, use the court docket for warrants or revocation cases and contact the office only through proper public channels. No Washington County-specific public absconder list was found in the research.
