Getting hold of copies of Illinois arrest records is very easy to do and anyone who wants to has the right to be able to get access to them. In many cases when you are looking for this information the internet is a great place to start your search and often you can get the information for nothing. However, there are some companies who are willing to carry out these searches for you but will charge a fee in order to do so.
The Illinois State Police hold criminal history information on particular individuals and if you would like to see sight of this you will need to pay a fee of $16.00 in order to do so. Whereas the Circuit Court in Jackson County will allow you access to their database and this will cost you $12.95 for each search that you carry out.
In general most of the law enforcement agencies are the ones who are required to maintain the databases that these records are held on. They will then share this information with the courts and in some cases with certain individuals who have requested a person?s public arrest records.
Generally the information that is held in these databases will be updated on either a daily, monthly or quarterly basis. So just how good the records are for a particular county within the State of Illinois will depend on how well the database is updated and maintained.
The figures that have been kept for Criminal Records Illinois have shown that there has been a decrease in the number of arrests made and yet still theirs are above the national rate. This is somewhat strange as the state has actually seen a steady decrease in the number of arrests being made. During a 12 year period from 1990 to 2002 the State of Illinois saw a decrease of 28% in the number of arrests being made. Originally in 1990 of 100,000 of the population 1,237 people were arrested and this figure then drops to only 894 in 2002.
Yet even though for the whole of the State of Illinois the arrest figures have been reduced between 1990 and 2002 there were some counties where they had substantial increases. Of the 102 counties which make up this state 43 of them were shown to have a large increase in their arrest rate records. Whilst of the rest of the counties 42 saw no differences and 17 of them had a notable reduction in the number of arrests that were made.
Certainly when you look more closely at the Criminal Records Illinois during the period between 1995 and 2002 only 8 of the original 43 stated above showed any increases. Plus when they were further looked at it was found that of these 8 counties the majority of the arrest increases 7 in total occurred in rural ones.
