Terms of Service

Nature of the Website

This website is a private reference source. It does not store official jail rosters, booking records, mugshots, court files, warrants, or correctional records, and it cannot confirm custody status, release anyone, or file a request with a public office.

The site points readers toward Shelby County jail record routes, Missouri Case.net, MODOC offender search, VINELink, federal and immigration locators, and outside research tools. Missouri public-record requests are governed by the Sunshine Law in Chapter 610, including RSMo 610.023 for custodian procedures and RSMo 610.100 for law-enforcement arrest and incident records.

• Do not use the site in a way that violates any law or court order.
• Do not use information from the site to stalk, threaten, harass, or intimidate anyone.
• Do not make employment, housing, lending, insurance, or similar eligibility decisions from site content.
• Do not attempt to access systems, accounts, files, or code without permission.
• Do not use bots, scrapers, or automated tools against the site.
• Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's use of it.

No Consumer Reporting Use

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide credit reports, background checks, employment screening, tenant reports, insurance screening, or other consumer reports. You agree not to use information from this site, or from linked partner tools, for:

• Hiring, firing, promotion, or workplace decisions.

Outside Websites

Links may lead to sheriff, court, corrections, legal-resource, public-record, advertising, or search-provider websites. Those outside sites control their own content, privacy practices, access limits, fees, availability, and terms.

No Warranties

The website is provided as is. No promise is made that:

• Information is complete, accurate, or current.
• The site will be available without interruption.
• The site or partner tools will be free of errors, bugs, or security issues.
• Partner search results will be complete or useful for a particular purpose.

Custody records, court dockets, bond information, and public-record access can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement from the Shelby County Sheriff's Office, a court, MODOC, or another public agency.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, this site and its operators are not liable for damages, losses, costs, or claims arising from use of the site, reliance on information here, unavailable pages, linked websites, or partner tools.
