Database For Florida Criminal Records

By Claire Dowell


The Florida Department of Corrections is where you should head if you want to get your hands on Florida Arrests Records. Citizens are allowed access to the files because they are considered as part of the public domain. If you want to conduct a search, head to the department and get the appropriate request form. You may also download it from their official webpage. Provide the required pieces of information and make sure that they are accurate because that will increase your odds of locating the exact file. Certain fees apply for every transaction, all of which are payable by money order or a certified check. There is a no refund policy once fees are paid, regardless of the outcome of the search.

Arrests are recorded even if they do not result to imprisonment. The name of the arrested person, nature of the crime, when and where the arrest was done, and the name of the arresting officer are just some of the information that you can find on an arrest record. If a person is proven not guilty of the crime charged against him or her, the records will not become available for public access.

You may request your own file especially if you want to check its details. If you identify anything that is inaccurate or not updated, you can notify the Department of Corrections about it so that the proper correction process can be done once they go over the documents.

On the other hand, requesting the records of other people is not that simple. You need to have authorization from the court to get them and there are only a handful of people who are given such. Law enforcers and lawyers are allowed to access them if they need it for a current investigation. Employers and landlords are given access so they can screen job applicants and possible tenants, respectively. Those who are about to marry are also given access so they check the criminal history of their potential lifetime partner. The amount of information that is revealed to those who has access depends on the circumstance or the reason of obtaining the records.

Another way of obtaining arrest files is through online search tools that maintain and offer such files. Online search tools are categorized into two kinds: those that render fees and those that offer the files for free. When you search for these search tools, it is most likely that almost, if not, all of them will claim that they are legit. Unfortunately, not of all them are. Before deciding which one to obtain the files from, conduct a brief background check on them first and find out as much information as you can about them. Refer to the reviews of previous clients and see if they are contented with the files that they got.

It is also possible to get your hands on Free Public Criminal Records. Ask around if they are available in your area. Maybe there is an agency that keeps an archive for such documents. If you cannot find any, you can always turn to conducting an online search. However, do not expect to be given an information-rich version of the documents because, after all, you are getting it for free.
