Monterey County Arrest Log Can Be Obtained Online

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.

You may acquire your own arrest log in the Monterey County. Once you go over the log and you feel that some of the details include in it are inaccurate, you can call the attention of the agency where you got the log and request them to have it evaluated and have the appropriate corrections done. You can also get access to other people's logs but the process will be stricter compared to getting your own log. Stating your reason for wanting to get the log is required. If the sheriff's office or the police department does not find your reason to be valid, they have the right to deny your request.

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 are looking to obtain CA Arrest Records, you can inquire at the Identification Unit of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. They accept requests through either a phone call or via fax. All you need to provide to start a search is a full name and birthday of an inmate.
