Monterey County Arrest Records Online Searching

By Claire Dowell


If you want to get access to Monterey County Arrest Log, go to the county Sheriff's Office or its local police department. Both agencies keep a daily log of their activities which they post on their respective websites. Citizens are given the right to view or request arrest logs as stated in the Public Records Act of the State of California Government Code 6254.

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 method requestors can use to obtain arrest logs is by performing an online search. There are websites that are in the business of maintaining and providing the logs to the general public. There are several of such websites, but, although they claim to be, not all of them are capable of putting together high-quality copies of arrest logs. Before you actually use any of the websites, list a few of them that you consider using. Next, perform a history check on them and find out everything you can about them. Check out what kind of feedbacks their past clients have on them.

If you want to get CA Arrest Records, you can access them at the state's Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, under their Identification Unit. You can either call or fax a request at the office. To place a request, simply provide the full name and the date of birth of the inmate.
