Crime map
The criminal-record jurisdictions searched in every US state — county jail rosters, statewide prison systems, courts and warrant systems. Open any state to see what it publishes, or search all 1,104 of them in a single call.
Criminal-record jurisdictions, by state
Darker means more jurisdictions searched in that state. Select any state to see its jail, prison, court and warrant sources.
Why one call beats fifty tabs
Depth follows county structure
Kentucky leads with 66 answering jurisdictions. States that run criminal justice at county level publish more separate sources — which is exactly what makes searching them by hand impractical.
3 states publish all four statewide layers
Prison, court, warrant and registry together. Where a state publishes the full stack you can follow a person from charge to disposition without leaving one call.
Federal sits alongside every state
Federal custody, courts and warrants are a separate system holding offences no state search will surface — searched in the same call. See federal search.
Four different questions
Every result states which kind of record it is, because they make different claims about a person.
County jail bookings
Who was taken into custody, when, and on what charges at booking. An arrest-stage record — it does not say how the case ended.
Prison custody
Statewide systems holding people after conviction, with facility and admission date.
Court dispositions
The authoritative statement of how a case actually ended — the record that separates a charge from a conviction.
Warrants
People sought rather than held. Outstanding by definition, and absent from every custody search.

Crime map questions
Is this an interactive crime map?
Yes. Every state is shaded by how many criminal-record jurisdictions are searched there — county jails, statewide prison systems, courts and warrant systems — and every state opens in full, listing what it publishes and linking to a search across it.
Does the map show where crimes happened?
It maps records about people rather than incidents on streets. An incident map plots reported offences by location; this maps the jail bookings, prison custody, court cases and warrants that counties and states publish, which is what tells you about a specific person rather than a specific block. If you are checking a person, this is the map you want.
How many jurisdictions can I search at once?
1,108 are answering today across 52 states, out of 1,491 in the roster. One unscoped call reaches all of the live ones instead of making you open one county site after another, and every response reports which jurisdictions answered.
Which state has the deepest coverage?
Kentucky, with 66 jurisdictions answering. Depth follows county structure more than population — states that run criminal justice at county level publish more separate sources, which is exactly why searching them one at a time is impractical and why one call across all of them is worth having.
Does a record on the map mean a conviction?
Read the record kind, which every result states. A jail booking is an arrest-stage record and says nothing about the outcome. Custody in a prison system implies a sentence. A court disposition is the authoritative statement of how a case ended. A warrant means someone is sought and nothing has been tested. These are different claims and we label which one you are looking at.
Can I use this for screening?
Offendersearch is not a consumer reporting agency and results are not a consumer report. FCRA-covered decisions — employment, tenancy, credit — need appropriate process on your side regardless of the data source. See the employee and tenant guides for how teams structure that.
