About Us
The law requires documentation through paper and
electronic records of every step of a criminal
arrest but that doesnt mean arrests always
look like the ones you see on television. Police
work is more mundane and paperwork-intensive than
30 minute dramas would lead you to believe.
Theres a lot more to daily police work than
speed traps and getting cats out of trees. Police
at the front line of community response are
continually tasked with additional duties,
whether or not technology and support services
are in place. For instance, a community may have
an issue with cars ignoring flashing lights on
school buses, putting children at risk. Due to
the immediacy of the threat, police would be told
to find a solution despite police officers having
a full slate of tasks from writing incident
reports to investigating crimes and serving
warrants. Likewise, fugitives may slip through
their hands because record keeping is not up to
date at a court house or because warrants are not
entered into a database that officers on the
street have access to.

Arrest Records History
Policing in America has continually morphed and
expanded since 1800 when our agrarian forefathers
found better-paying jobs in industry, moved into
growing cities and started spending discretionary
earnings in taverns and brothels.

Steps in the arrest process
Justification for arresting a person is
established in one of many ways, such as by
witnessing a crime (e.g. police catching a man
running out of a bank with a bag of money in his
hand), the testimony of witnesses (e.g. people
who were in the bank during the robbery and
identified the robber), or by establishing
probable cause (e.g. finding an empty bank bag in
a car owned by a person who fits the robbers
physical description).

Booking process
Fingerprinting When arrested, an individuals
fingertips are rolled through ink and pressed
onto paper creating an indelible record of the
event. The unique characteristics of fingerprints
were recognized as personal seals or
affirmations, like a signature, as far back as
ancient Babylonia and China, where fingerprints
were pressed into clay tablets as part of
business agreements. The first known use of
fingerprints for identifying a criminal suspect
was in Argentina in 1891, but their study and use
in the United States didnt begin until decades
later. By the 1940s, suspected criminals and all
U.S. military personnel were fingerprinted,
creating a manual databank of more than 100
million prints at the federal government level.

Bail or pretrial hearing Once an arrest takes
place, a judge is the only one who can set you
free. Generally, hearings before a judge take
place the morning after an arrest, when the local
judge will evaluate all of the information
available about you, the circumstances of your
arrest, the severity of the crime, and your
likelihood to re-offend. This gives the judge a
lot of leeway to decide whether you can be set
free on your Own Recognizance (promising to come
back to court on an appointed date) or if you
must be bailed out (posting a sum of money as a
promise to come back to court on an appointed
date).
