California Arrest Records Online Retrieving

By Claire Dowell


A Monterey County Arrest Log can be obtained by visiting the Monterey County's Sheriff's Office or police department. Members of the general public can place a request at either of the two agencies because they have to abide to the Public Records Act of the State of California Code 6254 which states that all citizens have the right to view or access arrest files.

Every arrest that is carried out is properly documented regardless if it results to the arrested person getting put to prison or not. An arrest log is consists of important pieces of information that can empower people to better protect themselves from criminals. If an arrested is person is found guilty of the crime charged against him or her, the log that is made for his or her case becomes open for public access. If the said person is proven innocent, the created log will become unavailable for public access but will remain in the hands of authorities for future reference.

To begin a search, you must first secure the proper request form from the sheriff's office or at the local police department. You can also download from their respective websites. Complete the form with as much information that you know about the arrest log you want to obtain and also include your contact information. Make sure that all the information you provide are accurate because it will be important to the success or failure of your search. There are fees that you need to pay to get the logs, all of which are non-refundable, regardless of the outcome of the search.

Citizens are permitted to get their own arrest logs in Monterey County. If you acquired your own and you spot some mistakes in it, you can have it checked by the caretaker of the logs and request to make the appropriate corrections. If you want to acquire the logs of other individuals, expect that it will be less easy to get them. You will be asked to state your motives for wanting to acquire the logs. If the caretakers of the logs are not satisfied with your stated motive, you will be denied access to the logs.

Another way of getting arrest logs is through online service providers. There are service providers that are authorized to maintain and provide arrest logs to the public. You can find a lot of them on the Internet and you will find that they all claim that they are legit information providers. Unfortunately, there are only a few that can be considered as legit. Before you choose which one to use, create a short list of service providers and conduct a background check on each of them. Find out as much information as you can about them and do not forget to check out what other users are saying about their service.

If you intend to obtain CA Arrest Records, you can proceed to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, under their Identification Unit. To start a search, you only have to provide the full name of an inmate and the date of their birthday. Requests can be made by making a phone call to the department or sending them a fax.
