How Can I Find Warrants? I receive many requests to find arrest warrants. Unfortunately arrest warrant information for most states are not public record to non-law enforcement. However, there are a few exceptions and there are now dozens of counties around the United States that have recent arrest warrant information online. For example, this link of a county in Indiana - Allen County Active Warrants, is a prime example. The warrant description of each subject has a photo, list of offense(s) committed, description and even a date of birth listed. Here is a web page of links to most of the sites that have active arrest warrants listed by name - Active Warrants by State. Another way to check for warrants is to run a criminal index for the individual. If there is a pending criminal case, contact the court to see if there is a "Failure to Appear." Most likely if there is an FTA, then there is a warrant. Also, run the individuals driving record. FTA's show up for traffic violations if the Subject does not show for his traffic court case. Law enforcement will only pick up that person if they are stopped for a traffic violation. Finally, check the County's most wanted list. Granted not everyone will be on that list, but some small counties will list everyone with a warrant. Try this link - Most Wanted Persons by State J R Cali-PI.com |
