Arizona Criminal Records Free To Public

By Claire Dowell


Like the citizens from the other States in America, Arizona natives are also defended by the State constitution. This means that if someone harms you or violates your right to remain peaceful he or she will be punished according to the crime being done. As crime rates have gone up, authorities have asked for support from the public to be more vigilant whenever there are unusual occurrences in the neighborhood or in the community. The officials have done some things to divulge the Arizona criminal records to people as a reference whenever there is a need to refer to such type of information.

So, how can Arizonians help in upholding the law? It's simple; they just have to report whatever it is that the police should know about. In the past, only the authorities are commissioned to keep the criminals under their custody. But today, it has to change enormously as population has ballooned over time and it is no longer as easy to do the law enforcement job as it used to be back in the old days. So, since it too much to handle already for the authorities, they have found ways to get the public's involvement in exercising the law by serving justice to the victims of crimes.

So, in the process, the State has developed some resources which provide help in getting the people to be involved in maintaining the peace and order within Arizona. They have set-up a web-based records provider where people can simply sign-up, type in for names and find-out information regarding someone who is acting suspiciously. On this note, a lot of individuals are going to be doing the basic investigation on a suspected criminal. If a person finds out something very substantial against another person, he or she can immediately inform the police about it for the necessary action. That's how it works.

Speaking of criminal records, the State has formed the Department of Public Safety with a trusted workforce and later on created a dedicated Criminal History Records Section. It literally compiles all the criminal records received from the various law enforcement agencies, so anybody will find it just easy to retrieve such files when requested in the future. The said office has been in operation since 1969 up to these days. So, you can just imagine how huge the database on criminal records is by now. The State government in Arizona has continually done its part to educate and empower the people to do their part as well in the effort to maintain peace.

Unlike the other States, in Arizona you are only allowed to do a finger-print type of search, instead of doing the usual name-based search. This was the official directive from the higher ups so it must be done and observed by the people as it is. Also, note that there are strict guidelines in the act of requesting this sort of record. Therefore, the public must be aware of such and make sure that every detail of the guidelines will be performed by the requestors. The Department of Public Safety is the place to go to when you are to do the following; seek information about the employees, obtain clearance letters and request for finger-printing services.

The said department even divided the records to be more organized and to easily accommodate the applications to be done by the residents. The records include the public records offences, public safety department records and the Arizona criminal background checks. To get started with the search one has to complete the records request form which is technically called the record review packet. This packet consists of the following details including fingerprint card, contact information and the pre-addressed envelope. It normally follows all the formalities usually done in government offices, thus results can be released in days. However, residents now have the alternative to obtain free arrest records online in just a matter of minutes. The only requirement is a computer with Internet access to be able to proceed with the search.
