Go to google serch for yellow pages.com. when your there, type a radom name and state. then win you enter it, there is a link that takes you to this page that can search anyone with only thier state and first name. it can tell you there criminal backround, thier age, exact address. it kinda freaky to know your personal info on there but oh well. if that doesn't work then just go to google and type what you need. sorry i 4got the web address.

You can probably get the info through the DMV of dept. of public safety.  Check their websites.

the answers given so far are the best way. If you can not call person home, call the branch of law enforcement whom you think arrested this person. If that is not feasible either you can look to see if the county has a website and check there. My county does have one and they post every day who is arrested and what for. Also the police here have one too.

Try the Department of Justice web site.

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!

Go into the county recorder.  It's public information.

try the local newspaper archives of the time at the local library or see if police records are available.

Ahh, the Good Ole Boy system at it's finest.  Going on here where I live.  Did a big story about some small rural departments hiring guys will felony drug arrest, aggravated assaults.  Smaller departments like that somehow can sometimes get away without doing background checks, don't know how, some loop hole I guess. \n\nI agree with the previous post, you're going to need proof of it, and any information you have.  Try contacting your state Bureau of Investigation office. (If you lived in Kansas, it would be called KBI, here in Tennesse it's TBI, etc.)  Can also contact the agency that certifies the officers.  Some states it's called POST(Police Officer's Standards & Training) or CJST(Criminal Justice Standards and Training).  They're the one's that can yank a cop's certification.

Check the newspapers for those dates, and see if they list people who were arrested.  Some do.\n\nContact the county jail(s) and see if the names of people who were booked on those dates is public information.  It might be there for you, just for the asking.\n\nContact the local law enforcement agencies, and see if they will provide that information.\n\nContact the local prosecutor's office and ask them the same thing, though it's entirely possible they may not have that information in some cases.\n\nContact a private investigator and see what they can do for you, and what they will charge you for it.\n\nContact the State Department of Justice (or whatever it's called out there) and tell them what you want.  See if anyone can suggest a way for you to get that information (it's possible you just can't).  \n\nDon't take just one answer from one person.  Make a couple of phone calls to the same place at different times, if you're not certain you're getting good information.  If you're told you can't have the info, ask (politely) why you can't...ask for the law that prohibits that information from being released, and then read that law and see if you agree that's what it says.  If not, seek legal counsel.

The city or county probably has a web site listing arrests.  Its public record.
