Who Holds Kamas Arrest and Booking Records
Kamas is a small town. Its 2,274 residents were counted in the 2020 local small-area table behind the city map. The municipal agency, the Kamas City Police Department, works out of City Hall. A report that starts there stays a city record. It documents the incident itself, not a jail stay or a booking photo.
Adults arrested in Kamas who enter county detention go through Summit County Jail. The county treats the jail as part of its corrections system. The Sheriff publishes the current-custody material. Keep in mind that a citation, a release, or a transfer can each produce a different outcome. The Summit County Jail page is the official place to begin.
Where Kamas Busted Mugshots Appear
Kamas itself posts no arrest roster. There is no daily bulletin on the city site, no booking feed, and no gallery of photos. Each official channel serves its own purpose instead. Ask the city when you need a Kamas incident record it created. For anyone currently held in the county jail, the Sheriff route works better. Keep one thing straight: the county list is a custody snapshot with a date on it. It is not a Kamas arrest log.
| Channel | Photo shown? | Official? | What it can answer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kamas City Police Department | No public photo list located | Yes | Police contacts, policy material, and the city path for an incident record |
| Summit County current inmate list | No | Yes | Current county custody at the report time, with name, booking number, current location, and time incarcerated |
| Summit County Jail information line | No | Yes | A direct official custody-status fallback when a dated list is not enough |
| KPCW reporting | Not a standing photo source | No | Occasional reporting on a Kamas public-safety event, not a custody record |
Note: A dated custody PDF can be useful, but it does not show charges, a court date, a release date, or a booking photograph.
Busted in Kamas: A Custody Lookup
Wondering if someone is locked up at Summit County Jail right now? Go to the county source first. Skip the news stories. Skip the city contact list for this one. The Sheriff posts dated PDFs titled “Current Inmate List, by Name.” There is no search portal with individual profiles. The PDFs show who was in custody on the day each one was printed. Someone released since then, moved to another facility, or entered a different system may simply not show up.
- Open the newest official Current Inmate List available from Summit County and use the PDF reader to search a name or booking number.
- Read the result as a snapshot. The list provides name, booking number, current location, and time incarcerated, but it does not provide a photo, charges, bond, court date, or disposition.
- If the current PDF does not answer the question, call the Summit County Jail information line at 435-615-3723. For a Kamas incident report, return to the Kamas police or city records path instead of treating the jail line as the report custodian.
- If a matter has moved beyond jail custody, use the appropriate court record channel for the case outcome. The county-wide guide explains the separate roster, records-request, and court paths in more detail.
Want the bigger picture on how that dated roster works? The difference between a booking, current custody, and a later court outcome matters. The Summit County booking-record guide breaks it all down. There is also a Sheriff app offered as an official public-safety channel. Neither its store listings nor county materials present it as a booking-photo source, though. It does not replace the current inmate list.
Kamas Police Records and GRAMA
Start with the city for a Kamas police report. Give the incident date, the location, and the report number if you have it. The supported route is the "GRAMA – Records Request" option on the city's Applications page. Filing there puts your request in front of city staff for review. It will not turn the police page into a searchable arrest log, though. What gets released still depends on the city's review under the public-record process.
Kim Peacock, City Recorder and records officer

Utah's records-officer directory names Kim Peacock as the city's records contact. Need the police directly? Call 435-783-4344. Non-emergency dispatch sits at 435-615-3607, the fax line at 435-783-6240, and 911 handles true emergencies. No dependable fee figure for police reports or booking photos showed up in the official material, so ask the city for a current number instead of guessing. One more thing matters here. If the record you want involves county jail custody rather than a city incident, route the request to the Summit County Sheriff records unit at 6300 Justice Center Road, Park City, UT 84098. That office answers at 435-615-3501, weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Note: Describe the record sought narrowly, because a Kamas incident report and a Summit County Jail booking record may be held by different custodians.
Why Kamas Has No Busted Log
One distinction matters for Kamas. The city's official police material includes policy documents. Body-camera rules are there, along with critical-incident rules. Yet nothing on that public page resembles an arrest roster, daily bulletin, or booking-photo list. That gap describes the page itself. It does not mean the Kamas City Police Department keeps no incident records. Match your request to the source that actually holds the answer. Skip any path promising a city booking ledger it cannot deliver. The official Kamas Police Department page works well for contacts and policy material, not for mugshots.
Use that page to file a city-record request. Keep a Kamas police report separate from the Sheriff's current-custody information. KPCW's story on the municipal service app points to city and police contacts, not a jail lookup. No Kamas-specific secondary service checked out, so none gets offered here as a stand-in. Keeping these paths straight prevents a mugshot search from being mistaken for a claim that a city booking list exists.
Kamas Busted Mugshots in Local News
Local news can tell you what happened on a Kamas street. It won't hand you a booking photo. Take KPCW's story about a chase that started in Kamas. That's real journalism from a station covering Summit County regularly. Yet it sits apart from any Kamas Police Department blotter or arrest roster. A news piece gives you the shape of an incident. It won't tell you who is behind bars right now.
The Park Record runs Sheriff's Report items too. These round up shift activity across Summit County and sometimes mention bookings. The coverage is spotty and unscheduled, and it never includes a mugshot gallery. Reporting and official records simply work differently. To see how each source in the county stacks up, read the Summit County crime news guide.
Note: News coverage describes a reported event, while the Sheriff and Utah Courts are the sources to confirm current custody and a later case outcome.
Kamas Booking Status After Release
A custody list answers one question, and only briefly. The PDFs Summit County publishes are dated reports, not a lasting Kamas arrest database, so anyone released from jail simply drops off the page. Someone transferred to Utah state custody lands in a different system entirely. A name missing from an old PDF proves nothing about a charge or a court outcome.
Need a live answer? Call the jail information line first. If you want a county record that's been retained, follow up with a focused Sheriff records request, and route city-created material through Kamas's GRAMA process. Just know the county posts no same-day, 24-hour, 48-hour, 72-hour, or weekly booking feed, so a dated roster can't stand in for a fresh just-booked search.
