Oklahoma Public Criminal Records

By Ben Kingsley


In Oklahoma, the public is given the right to access public records, including Oklahoma Criminal Records, per the Oklahoma Open Records Act. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is the office-in-charge of the state's criminal records. The records that are kept by the bureau are the ones that local police departments and sheriff's offices submit to them.

There are two types of search method you can choose from at the bureau: you can do a name-based search for $15, or a fingerprint-based search for $19. Payment for the fees should be done only by money order or a check. The bureau determines what requirements should be included in submitting requests. If the requirements are not provided accordingly, a request will be rejected. In addition, there is no money-back policy even if the requested files are not located.

There are several files that complete a criminal file. Files of sex offenders, driving history, arrests, police reports, and many more are all part of criminal files. The name of a violator, title of offense, date and place an offense transpired, physical qualities and other essential details can be found from these various files. You may use them as reference but never in such a way that will cause a negative impact on another person's life, unless if the situation calls for it, like in a court hearing. To defame, make a fool of, or cause damage to someone's name is not allowed. Anyone who fails to observe this will be punished appropriately by the court.

Teenagers are always up for exploring new things and at times they get themselves in trouble. Parents can use criminal records to find out about the background of the people that their children are associated with. They may not like it if you investigate on their friends but it is better safe than sorry.

Conducting background checks is becoming a regular thing especially with employers and landlords. Employers check the criminal background of job applicants so they can avoid having any troubles with the law in the future. Landlords use the information from the records to determine if it is safe to accept an applying tenant to their premises. A person may access his or her own records to check if there are inaccuracies. It is harder to get a job or find a place to stay for a person that has a criminal record under his or her name. Luckily, a person may request to expunge the records but that will depend on the gravity of the offenses committed.

To start a search, one must know at least the full name of the offender. Providing additional details is also helpful especially if the name of the offender is too common. Also, make sure that the details you are providing are accurate so that you will be given the correct records. There are various service providers that provide Free Public Criminal Records. With just computer and an Internet connection, results of your search will be displayed on your computer screen in just a matter of seconds.
