Freestone County Arrests Search, TX

There are online and offline sources you can use to trace Texas criminal records and this article will tell you how and where to access them. A special emphasis will be given to Freestone County arrest records and warrants.

Carrying out an arrest search on a county and state level

To find out whether a person has ever been incarcerated in Freestone County, you need to contact the local jail at 903-389-3236. There is no official electronic jail roster available to the public, so your inquiry must be conducted offline.

Online sources for finding Texas arrest records

Looking for an inmate statewide is much easier since there are governmental online databases that will allow you to find the information from the comfort of your home.

The first source we recommend is the criminal history name search managed by the TxDPS. It presents all people incarcerated in the state for crimes more severe than Class B misdemeanor. All searchers must sign up for the service prior to accessing the data bank.

Furthermore, you can conduct a comprehensive Texas offender search on the TDCJ's website. An inmate can be traced by name or TDCJ / SID number.

Performing a Warrant Check

Freestone County warrants are kept by the sheriff office. For information, you have to visit them (103 S. Keechi, Fairfield, TX 75840) and ask whether the one you are checking is wanted by the police or has a criminal history. They are usually quite willing to help with this kind of basic information. In return, they hope the public will give them some tips that might speed up their investigations and help them apprehend fugitives.

Where to access court dockets

There are basically two official sources from which you can get copies of Freestone County court records. The County Clerk processes misdemeanor dockets which are presented online here. The District Clerk stores felony dockets. They do not display them online, so you will have file a FOIA request to view public information. The website of the Texas General Attorney elaborates on this procedure. For further details, you can contact the clerk's office at 903-389-2534.

Performing a sex offender search

To find out if a person has a history of sexual violence or if there are any former sex offenders living in your area, use the state's online registry. You can base your inquiry on name, address or academic institution.
