Who polices Hampton
Hampton has no municipal police department. Coverage comes from Connecticut State Police Troop D, so an arrest anywhere in town is a state police arrest.
Booking runs through the state police, the paperwork comes from the troop, and the troop is who a family calls about someone still being held. There is no local station to try first.
Where your case goes
Hampton cases are prosecuted at Danielson Superior Court, GA 11, east at 120 School Street. The court page covers parking and what the first appearance involves.
If troopers released you, the date is on the paperwork. If you were held, court comes the next business day.
After the arrest
Booking ends one of two ways: released on a written promise to appear or on a bond, or held for court the next business day where the amount is reviewed. The arrest page and the bond and bail page cover both.
A family violence arrest is heard the next business day however you were released, and a protective order issues at that appearance, standing for the length of the case.
Before any of it, stop discussing what happened, and assume a call from custody is being taped, because it is. The arraignment page covers the first court date and the what to expect page covers where it leads.
Common charges in Hampton
The Hampton docket at GA 11 is among the smallest in the court: DUI, drug possession, assault, domestic violence and family violence, and larceny and shoplifting. A first offense frequently qualifies for a diversionary program ending in dismissal.
