Internet Sources Concerning North Carolina Police Records

By Rose Smith


As a state consisting of 100 counties, North Carolina ranks close among the highly populated states in the country. However, a large population usually entails a high crime rate. This is why the state has made North Carolina police records accessible to the general public; and rightfully so, since having access to such records has never been more essential, especially when it comes to the safety and security of the populace.

If you wish to get access to such records, there are a variety of things you must take into account before you can get a hold of the information you need. The procedures involved in acquiring such vital information will largely depend on your reason for requesting access. Whether you want to access your own records or your employees', the processes are a bit different but both are quite tedious nonetheless.

If you want a reliable source for these types of records, the North Carolina Court System is more than capable of providing information pertaining to arrests, charges and convictions made by the state. The court system can also provide criminal and police reports from all counties. But for doing background checks, the procedure is somewhat different, as all requests have to go through the State Bureau of Investigation for processing. Under the authority of the Department of Justice, the SBI is tasked with handling all matters involving background checks.

The Bureau has its own set of procedures that all requesters must follow before they will be granted access to North Carolina police records and other essential information they might need. Depending on the nature of your request, the SBI are tasked to handle all requirements for providing background check results and copies. In short, they won't just handout copies of police records without checking you, the requester, out first.

However, when the Internet became widely available, accessing vital records has become a lot easier for an average civilian. Not long after the beginning of the Internet-age, online record providers began emerging - all of which promise to provide reliable information. Some of them will even go as far as providing free service just to increase their online traffic. But for a wise Internet user, you know that these types of services that are offered free of charge are not at all reliable or safe even.

When it comes to police reports and other vital records necessary for your background check endeavors, it is better to stick with the professionals. With that said, there are commercial record providers that will provide you with unrestricted access to their comprehensive database in exchange for a one-time fee. The services that these professional record providers are offering are way more dependable and efficient than most free service providers can ever deliver. And that is how you add value to your money.
