CBI Statewide Criminal History
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation keeps a statewide criminal history database. Every arrest in Loveland that includes fingerprinting gets reported to CBI. You can run a name-based search through the CBI Records Check website.
The online search costs $6.00 per name. Results come back fast, usually within minutes. The CBI system shows arrests from all 64 Colorado counties, so a search will show not just Loveland arrests but any other Colorado arrests tied to that person. Mail-in requests cost $13.00 and take longer to process. The CBI site also has forms for fingerprint-based checks, which are more thorough than name-based searches.
A CBI record shows arrest dates, charges, and dispositions when available. It does not mean the person was convicted. Some entries may show charges that were later dropped or cases where the person was found not guilty.
Court Records for Loveland Arrests
Loveland falls in the 8th Judicial District, which covers Larimer County. After an arrest leads to formal charges, the case enters the court system. You can search for these cases through the Colorado Courts Records Search tool.
