This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, obtain official booking records, arrange a release, or post bond. Direct those needs to the government office that created or maintains the record.
Official Cottle Record Contacts
Start with the agency that made the arrest or maintains the record. A Cottle event may involve the Sheriff’s Office, Paducah Police Department, a confirmed holding jail, or the county clerk. The available county research did not find a public Cottle jail roster, public booking-photo portal, or public recent-bookings feed.
Cottle County Sheriff’s Office
The official Sheriff page lists Sheriff Mark Box and the office at Cottle County Courthouse, 815 9th Street, Paducah, TX 79248. Mail may be sent to PO Box 887, Paducah, TX 79248. The non-emergency number is 806-492-3131, and the published public-correspondence address is cottlesopubliccorrespondence@gmail.com.
No separately published records unit, records hours, booking-photo fee, or request form was located on that official page. For a Texas Public Information Act request, ask for existing records by name and date range, state your preferred electronic format, and request a cost estimate before charges are incurred. The office can confirm routing when a sheriff-held record is uncertain.
Childress County Jail and Sheriff
Childress County Sheriff’s official page identifies the open-records route as 1005 Avenue F NW, Childress, TX 79201, or sheriff@childresstx.us. The non-emergency number is (940) 937-2535, with listed office hours of Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Childress is a documented housing partner for Cottle inmates, but the located contract ended September 30, 2025 and no later renewal was found. Confirm present placement with Cottle before treating Childress as the holding jail for a current Cottle arrest. The official page does not establish a public Cottle-filtered roster or guarantee a public booking photograph.
Paducah and Court Records
For an arrest handled by Paducah Police Department, the City of Paducah directory listing gives PO Box 759, Paducah, TX 79248-0759 and 806-492-3713. No police-records email, fee schedule, office hours, public log, or photo policy was found. Ask the city to route a written request to the police-records custodian.
For a case outcome or local file direction, use the Cottle County Clerk’s official page. The clerk is listed at 815 9th Street, with PO Box 717, Paducah, TX 79248-0717, and 806-492-3823. Court records may explain the disposition after an arrest, but they do not replace a jail’s current-custody response.
Other Custody Systems
For a person sentenced to state custody, use the Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate-information page or its official offender search. TDCJ covers state custody, not every Cottle booking. Federal-custody questions belong with the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator; immigration-detention questions belong with the ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
For a search path rather than an office contact, the Cottle County records guide explains the county, jail, court, and state channels. The Most Wanted Fugitives page discusses warrant-checking through official sources.
