About The Position
The Pretrial Intake Officer position is a full-time role based in Castle Rock, CO, primarily responsible for interviewing felony and misdemeanor defendants at the Douglas County Detention Center. The main objective of this role is to establish and verify the defendants' residence, employment, and past criminal history, which assists the District and County courts in determining appropriate bail bonds. The position requires a thorough review of arresting documents to identify individuals needing a bond report, followed by conducting brief interviews with those defendants. The officer will also enter the gathered information into the Division's computer database system to create new bond reports and input data into various criminal history databases to assess the defendants' backgrounds. In addition to the primary responsibilities, the officer will analyze case events related to the defendants' criminal history to accurately score a risk assessment tool, which will be submitted to the court as part of the official bond report. The role also involves responding to GPS issues and violations after hours, which requires effective problem-solving and communication with judges, district attorneys, and law enforcement. The officer will be responsible for installing GPS monitoring devices on defendants prior to their release and ensuring all necessary documentation is completed. Administrative tasks such as filing, updating records, and processing paperwork are also part of the job. This position does not involve direct supervision of others but may include assisting with the training and orientation of new staff. The work environment is primarily office-based, requiring close contact with coworkers, law enforcement, judicial staff, defendants, and the public. The role demands a considerable amount of independent judgment and analysis to determine appropriate actions within standard practices.
