Only a decade or so ago it was pretty much impossible to run checks on the US public without finding a private detective and it being prohibitively expensive. Now that there is the web 2.0 and easily available databases, it is now a whole lot simpler. 

It’s now possible, if you go to the right website, to fire off a large number of serperate searches on zero cost government websites to gather criminal records held against US citizens. The main disadvantage of this way of doing thing is that you need to search on lots of different web pages and online databases to retrieve the criminal records that you are looking for. The records is frequently held differently for different states making record retrieval a laborious process. What’s great is that th ere is now a much faster alternative at a much reduced cost. A hand full of large central databases have been developed by private companies that allow you to search all records on a single website. This means it is very easy to use and much quicker to find the criminal records that you are looking for. For a very small annual fee of $40 you are able to find criminal records for every single state in the country. All the records are retrieval using a single website which makes the whole process much easier. 

What’s even better is that there’s more good news. This same low annual charge also grants you access to loads of different kinds of record that are saved on the numerous government databases. These include: criminal records, marriage / divorce registers, missing persons files, assault files, court data and proceedings, sex offenders searches, birth and death searches, personal bankruptcy registers, inmate lists, most wanted criminal records, parole files, jail registers, DWI data, arrest records and loads more

It’s worth noting that someone does not have to have been locked up to have searchable criminal data held against him. 

The best websites we have come across is http://gov-criminal-records.com  This web page presents a very rapid search functionality and the access to sift through millions of government records all in a single website.

So what could we use all these records for and can it be useful for you? There are endless reasons why a yearly subscription for these records is priceless. If you employ someone to help around your house, walk your pet, or help with care of your dependants, you are able to fire off a search on the person’s name and check if they have a criminal record. You could be an employer and wish to execute background checks on potential employees. Again an easy search will come back with all the proof you want to make certain that you only hire the right people. If a person is over the age of 18 and have previously been involved in criminal activity, they have criminal records against them which it will now be able to search for and save. 

Yet another potential use for this data is if you find yourself on a date and want to run a check on the date you have met up with. It’s far better to find out now than a few years ahead in time when it’s all too late.  Have fun checking!
