Texas Arrest Records

Searching for names of those who got arrested and convicted as criminals can be accomplished through the Texas Department of Public Safety which directly supervises the Crime Records Service section and the Computerized Criminal History System. The Computer History System enables searches on the following subjects including arrests, prosecutions and class B misdemeanor cases. More so, the Department of Public Safety collaborates records with the Department of Criminal Justice and the other state and local law enforcement agencies in Texas.

Thus, if you are doing a background check on an individual, the Computer History System can be leveraged by registering an account with it for free. Payments will only be made when you are to begin searching for names of which you can pay through checks or credit cards. The process is quite simply, you just have to type in the complete name and the birthdate of the subject in order to pull-up the desired information. Doing a background check is definitely legal in Texas so long as your intention is valid and justifiable in all aspects.

On the other hand, Texas inmates can be checked via the Offender Information Search portal which was initiated by the Criminal Justice Department. If doing the request online is not possible, then you have two options whether you go by email or by phone. If you opt to perform the search electronically, you will have to provide the following necessary details about the subject including inmate ID number, full name, race and sex. If you are to go by email then as policy you will have to supply information on the present custody data, exact address of the offender or any imprisonment history. If you call by phone, you only need to say the ID number of the subject or his name along with his date of birth.

The other work around to get copies of Texas arrest records would be through the Criminal Records Service which does both public and private methods in providing the said reports online. This is done by doing a name-based search costing $5.75 per search for using credit cards. On another note, those who would like to access their personal records should be fingerprinted and is required to fill out a copy of the request form which can be procured from the Records Service office. Mailed applications are also taken care of costing $15.00. If you will have to take fingerprints online the fee would be $9.95.

Also, the state has created an online portal for the Public Sex Offender Registry. It is very easy to use such online database; you only have to input the following details such as the registrant name, address, ZIP code, County and Institute of Higher Education. Nowadays, searches are carried out in an even more convenient way to the extent that you no longer have to leave home just to do the request. It becomes an effortless job with the aid of an online records service which only requires a reasonable fee in return for the quick download of results.
