If someone is incarcerated, where can I find information about his or her charges?

If you know where he is it will help, but even if you don't, if you are a wife, (common-law or otherwise) or a relative you can talk to your local police office, explain your concerns, and ask them to do a criminal check on him. This will tell you what the charges are. In my part of the world, a woman can ask police to run a criminal check on her boyfriend or significant other before introducing him to her family (or even afterwards if concerns arise). Smart women are following through on this more and more often, these days.

If he is a federal inmate then you can go to the Bureau of Prisons and use their inmate locate to see the most recent information about them, including their release date.  If it is a local or state inmate you would either need to call the facility they are at or find the facilities website on the Internet.

If you know the County in which this person may be held, search yahoo or google for the Clerk of Court website for that county.  Once in the site, follow the links to either court or arrest information.  You should be able to find out this way.

If he is in prison already then it wont matter if he tells you what he is in for. They already know, they put him in there. The only way that will make a difference is if there is more to the story than he wants them to know. You can find out why hes in there according to the court records by searching the california court district court records which are public knowledge and free to browse. One surefire way is to go to the local courthouse in that area and ask to see the court records for that county/area and give his name. They will charge you for copies in the pennies. Also you may be able to do a search to find the official california district court records site. There will be some that will try to charge you. Dont pay there is a free one out there somewhere. It might be hard to find though. In Oklahoma the site is odcr.com "oklahoma distric court records.com" I dont live there anymore but thats what it is and I know that every state has one. You will find a link similar to offender lookup or violator info and click on it to type in and search names.

While I don't know about your particular state, I am aware that in Georgia, you can do a search of current and past prison inmates.  Perhaps if you try to do a search for "[YOUR STATE NAME HERE] Department of Corrections" at Google.com, then you might have some luck.\n\nOtherwise, I do believe that criminal records are not necessarily public information.  You usually have to obtain that information from an NCIC report which is usually only obtainable by law enforcement officials.\n\nGood luck!

Many states have web site for their Department of Corrections.  It will usually have a search option to look up current and past inmates.\n\nMost county jails are not going to have this information on their website.  It is too labor intensive to keep it current.  They will have automated phone system for you to access inmate information if you have the booking number for the inmate.

That would depend upon the reason you need to find out. If it is in order to hire a person (especially for jobs which involve sensitive information or contact with certain groups, such as children) then your local police department will be able to run a background check on the person.\nIf it is someone in prison, and you have a legitimate reason to find out the reason the person has been incarcerated, the correctional facility itself will be able to give you that.\nIf you are just wondering/nosey you may be able to find out by getting a background check through a private firm such as: \nhttp://www.internet-detective.be/\nor\nhttp://www.crimcheck.com/\n\nThere any privacy laws that protect the individual's personal information, which can make it difficult to find out such info.

Depending on the state you are in you can go to their Dept of Corrections Website. If he is in a Fed Pen you can go to the US Dept of Justice website for more information.

If the correctional facility where the inmate is being housed has a website featuring information about it's population, there is a good chance you could find out a release date that way.  You might also contact the actual facility to ask the warden or someone in the higher penal administrative offices as well as the board of pardons and paroles for that particular area about a release date for a specific individual.  This information is public record, as well as information relating to the facts of the crime, and sentencing information.  I hope this helps you.

Anything on the web would be county/public records, IMHO. But, newspapers aways have a police blotter column. However, it has to be public record before they would publish. The courts will have set charge first before it is public records. You can only call the County Sherif and ask if she's in jail.
