Arrest photos are an important part of arrest records and criminal records. These photos provide a visual representation of people who have been arrested, and they allow to view details about criminal records. In the past, arrest photos were only available in a physical format. Nowadays you can find mugshots online and discover information about the person that the photos belong to. How can you perform the search? here is the answer.
Why are mugshots available online?
Many people wonder if mugshots are public information, and the answer is both Yes and No. Generally speaking, arrest photos are a part of the public record database. So, you can get access to these records, and it will be completely legal. However, the general public does not have access to all the mugshot photos in the United States.
There are arrest photos that you cannot view: photos that are a part of juvenile records, photos from expunged records, and photos from sealed records. So, you can view mugshots of most people in the country, but not all.
Why is a mugshot search important?
The fact that people have a criminal record does not reflect on their present. However, there are cases where it is important to know if a person in your life has a criminal past, and why. For example, if you move to a new neighborhood or there are new neighbors near your current home, a mugshot search can be helpful. It can reveal if they are registered sex offenders, which is always important to know.
Also, if you speak to people online, a mugshot search can reveal if they have a criminal past or if they are lying about their identity.
You can also search your own arrest photos and make sure that your criminal record is accurate. Criminal records are official records that are collected by official agencies; this means that they are accurate, but there could be errors from time to time. Performing a mugshots search on yourself will reveal if there are inaccuracies in your public records. If you have records that should have been sealed or expunged, and arrest records search will let you know if that is indeed the case. If not, you can contact the proper authorities and ask for your records to be sealed/expunged.
How to perform an online mugshots search?
There are several methods to perform an arrest photos search. If you want a complete review of someone's criminal record, a public records search directory is the way to go. GoLookUp is a large and comprehensive public records search engine that provides access to records in the entire country.
You can find mugshots by simply typing in the name and the state of residence of a person that you have questions about.

If the name-based search does not give you results, you can use the phone/address/email search directories on GoLookUp. Each search is confidential and the reports are available for download within minutes.
