Florida Arrest Records

By Ben Kingsley


Different government agencies of Florida can issue an arrest warrant to individuals who are reported to have disobeyed the laws set by the state and the nation. FL arrest records are open documents which mean that the local residents of Florida have the freedom to access it whenever they need to.

A public arrest record would have the personal details of the involved individual. This includes the real name of the reported individual as well as other names he/she is known for. Details of the person's birth and residency are also included on the file. A detailed description of the individual can also be found on the record which includes the mug shot of the individual and one would know if the person has any significant markings that can be found on his body. The reason for the arrest of the individual is detailed on the document along with other crimes and offenses he has committed before. Whether the person was charged for his crimes and was given sentence, details about it are also indicated on the document.

Arrest records are primarily used to conduct a background check. Employers also look into the criminal history of their people to make sure that the ones who work for them have clean history. Local residents of Florida would look into to records of their neighbors, caretakers and those in their neighborhood to make sure that they are surrounded with good people. Investigators also use this type of document when they are conducting a case investigation.

Making the arrest records open to the public has given the involved individuals problems especially when they are looking for a job. Because owners of businesses prefer to hire people with clean records, those who had been arrested before are the least priority during job application. Most of the time, these people would feel treated unjustly in the workplace because of their history. However, by expunging the arrest record, such unequal treatment can be avoided.

Although, the document is made open to the public, this doesn't mean that anybody can view the records of other individuals. Because of the sensitive information that can be obtained from it, access to such documents is only given to the individual whose name is on the file. An application form has to be filled out with the necessary information needed. It is also important that the one who requested for the record indicate their contact details in order to track the access to the file. Arrest records in Florida can be obtained at the state's Department of Law Enforcement. Only arrest that took place since 1950 can be obtained in Florida. A fee of $24 has to be paid in order to proceed with the search. The search can also be done by sending a mail request but this can take longer.

The development of the Internet has changed the way we share information and this is evident with the retrieval of arrest records online. Instead of waiting for days, one simply needs to wait for a few seconds and the results are displayed on the computer screen. A free criminal records search can also be done online.
