What to know About Criminal Records
A criminal record is a compiled fact about a particular individual who has been convicted of an offense. It is recorded, compiled and updated to give a detailed and reliable report.

A person is convicted if he is found guilty of a certain offense by the court. Criminal records include personal data, arrests and even pending cases with arrest being defined as “keeping the person in custody by authority of law”.

Criminal records research can be conducted through visiting local courthouses or by going online. It is a way or a chance for an individual to be aware and be more careful. We don’t know if a certain person has been convicted to any crime. Even when we are at the comfort of our home, we can still be prone to danger because of others.

In the past, bad records were seldom brought up. That’s why it’s so important to be aware of people’s criminal records. There could be no losses on your part and you really need to obtain protection for your own safety.

You can find criminal records at the local courthouses. Though documents can’t be taken out, you can photocopy it for your own reference. However, it can be a long process before you obtain what you need.

Try to save yourself some time by searching the web about criminal records. Though some information is still locked up, most are for the public. You can access for free or with a small fee. Most countries now have a website where data about criminal records are listed. So it’s now easy and convenient for us to use the internet rather than to personally visit a courthouse.
