How to get details on arrests in Tucson?
You may have already reckoned that local law enforcement is not going to grant you access to the arrest log, much less the police blotter or anything along those lines. However, there are two other online sources of information that can come in handy.
- The KGUN website that posts arrest mug shots at https://www.kgun9.com/photo-galleries/crime/mugshots. The problem is that apart from a picture, the name of the person arrested and a brief note on the charges, you get nothing else, and that too is only available for some of the detainees.
- You can use the arrest app of the Pima County Sheriff’s Office at https://www.sheriff.pima.gov/inmate/. This is a simple tool that allows you access to the arrest reports if your search with the name of the arrested individuals.
Where should you go to request a warrant search in Tucson?
There are two ways in which you can access details on active warrants. The facility to conduct an online warrant check is offered by the local judicial office and the state judiciary. However, the information you get will be limited by the geographic jurisdiction of the office approached.
To find arrest warrants issued by the Tucson City Court, go to https://www.tucsonaz.gov/courts/court-defendant-search. This is basically a court records search tool that allows you to find case information by using the defendant’s name. Because the City Court only handles cases pertaining to traffic violation and minor offenses, the information you get will be restricted to such matters and to the City of Tucson.
The case lookup facility offered by the Arizona State Judiciary is also a similar name based case records search tool. However, with this app, you can initiate a warrant lookup through the judicial records database of the state. This tool is available at https://apps.supremecourt.az.gov/publicaccess/caselookup.aspx.
