A record of arrests processed at the Colville Tribes’ correctional facility, documenting individuals detained, charges filed, and processing details, serves as a crucial operational document. This detailed chronological record typically includes information such as the detainee’s name, date and time of booking, arresting officer, alleged offenses, bail amount (if any), and scheduled court dates. It functions similarly to booking records maintained by other law enforcement agencies.
Maintaining accurate and accessible detention records is essential for transparency and accountability within the tribal justice system. These records can be crucial for legal proceedings, internal reviews, statistical analysis of crime trends, and ensuring the rights of individuals in custody are protected. Historically, such documentation may have taken various forms, evolving from handwritten ledgers to electronic databases, reflecting advancements in record-keeping practices. Access to this information is often subject to specific regulations and procedures established by the Colville Tribes.
