How to Search for Young County Arrest Records

Finding Young County arrest records should not be too difficult as there are enough sources that provide criminal background information to the public. The following article will present these sources.

Running an arrest inquiry

Searchers are advised to visit the webpage of the county jail. There, you will find a link to a list that displays current inmates.

Those looking for information that goes beyond the county, should refer to databases run by the state's authorities. Texas arrest records can be found on the online Criminal History Name Search operated by the TxDPS. This data bank displays people's incarceration histories all over the state. Only arrests for crimes more severe thanClass B misdemeanor will be shown.

Users must open an account to access the records. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice manages an electronic offender search where you can look for inmates in the state's correctional facilities. You will need to type the subject's name or TJDC / SID number.

Performing a warrant lookup

Young county warrants should be searched with the help of the sheriff. Since there is no electronic inquiry tool offered by the county, searchers will have to arrive at the sheriff office in person (315 N Cliff Dr, Graham, TX 76450, phone number: 940-549-1555) and go over their databases and list of wanted persons.

How can you get access to Young County court records?

Dockets issued by the court are accessible in two offices:

• The County Clerk stores records on misdemeanor offenses.
• The District Clerk handles felony records.

You will have to approach these offices and file a FOIA request in order to view governmental documents (Four further guidelines, consult the website of the Texas Attorney General). They are both located at 516 Fourth Street Graham, Texas, 76450. The county also puts at your disposal a computerized case search where you can find civil and criminal records.

For your information, court records will tell you whether the person you are checking has a history of convictions in court, and therefore, every background check will be incomplete without them.

Tracing sex offenders

To check whether there are sex offenders living close to your home, work or children's school, use the state's registry. It enables you to locate an offender based on name, address or academic institution.
