Arrest Records are basically Public Records. That makes them accessible by the public as long as procedures are complied with. Public Arrest Records are obtainable from government agencies including Police Departments and even the FBI. This may be done by mail, telephone, in person, fax or online over the internet which is becoming a vastly popular method of retrieval. Public Arrest Records are also widely carried by commercial information providers.

We can learn a lot about people from their Public Arrest Records. At a basic level, they contain information about their personal particulars and description, the details of their arrest history such as the time and place of each arrest if there had been multiple arrests, type of offense, warrant, case number, and arresting agency. Related information from other record categories may also be produced.
