NO FCRA USE. This is a privately operated website with no connection to a local, state, or federal government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners supplies a service for credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions, or any other use regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify criminal-record resources in Johnson County and Missouri. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This private reference site operates independently of government. It does not store official records, conduct official checks, retrieve a file, or submit a document for a visitor.
The content identifies Johnson County custodians and official Missouri resources, including the Sheriff, Circuit Clerk, Missouri State Highway Patrol Criminal Justice Information Services Division, and Missouri Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also display tools run by outside providers.
2. Rules for Using This Site
By using the site, you agree not to:
- Use the site in violation of federal, Missouri, or local law
- Threaten, stalk, or harass another person with information found here
- Use site content for an FCRA-regulated decision
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
- Send scrapers, bots, or other automated tools through the pages
- Disrupt performance or interfere with another visitor’s access
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Information obtained here or through a linked service must not be used to intimidate, threaten, harass, stalk, or discriminate. Missouri warns that using Missouri Sex Offender Registry information to facilitate a crime is illegal. Registry publication supports public safety awareness and never authorizes vigilante action or mistreatment of a listed person.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create credit reports, consumer reports, or official background checks. Site content and linked tools may not be used to:
- Make an employment decision
- Evaluate a tenant or housing application
- Set credit or insurance eligibility
- Decide eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit when consumer-report rules apply
- Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose
A legally permitted official check should be obtained through the Missouri State Highway Patrol Criminal Justice Information Services Division or a provider that complies with the law governing the intended purpose.
5. No Legal Advice
Content is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed Missouri attorney can assess how a warrant, charge, conviction, or expungement statute applies to specific facts.
6. No Warranties
All content and functions are provided “as is.” No promise is made that:
- Information will always be current, complete, or accurate
- The website will remain uninterrupted
- Every page will be free from defects or security risks
- An outside search provider’s results will be complete or correctly matched
Public files can change after charges, dismissals, corrections, closures, and expungement orders. Gaps or stale details may remain. Only the originating public office can make an official statement about its record.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links can lead to public agencies, courts, legal services, and outside search providers. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination controls its content, availability, price, and data practices. Review that service’s terms before using it.
8. Intellectual Property
Johnson County Criminal History or its content partners own the site’s text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required before copying, modifying, distributing, or creating a derivative work from that material.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for damages arising from the website, its content, or a linked service, including reliance on information found through either source.

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims or demands caused by your use of the site or breach of these terms, including related legal costs where the law allows.
11. Governing Law
Missouri law governs these terms. A dispute connected with use of the website must be brought in a court located in Missouri.

These terms may be revised. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be suspended or ended at any time, with or without prior notice.
14. Severability
