Private-site disclosure. Fulton County Recent Arrests is privately owned and has no affiliation with Fulton County, a sheriff, jail, corrections department, or any other government body. It helps visitors locate jail and custody-record resources in Fulton County and Illinois, but it is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency. Neither this website nor its advertising partners offers services governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening services.
The Site’s Limited Role
This is an independent reference website, not a government office. It does not create, own, or store official arrest, booking, court, jail, or correctional records. Staff cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, authorize a release, change an agency record, or file a request or court document for a visitor.
Pages point toward Fulton County and Illinois custody resources and may connect visitors with outside research tools. A link is a route to another service, not a statement that the destination is complete, current, or endorsed.
Conditions for Acceptable Use
You may use the site only in a lawful manner that respects other people and the operation of the service. You agree that you will not:
- Violate any applicable law while accessing or using the website
- Use information to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person
- Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content
- Attempt to enter systems, accounts, or data without authorization
- Deploy bots, crawlers, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
- Interfere with access, performance, security, or use by another visitor
No Consumer Reports or FCRA Use
Fulton County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not furnish background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening products. Its advertising partners likewise do not provide screening services through this site. By using the site, you agree not to apply its information to:
- A decision to hire, retain, promote, discipline, or dismiss a worker
- A tenant, lease, rental, or other housing decision
- Creditworthiness, lending terms, or an insurance rate or decision
- Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government benefit or program
- Any other purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act
Third-Party Links and Services
The site may link to jail rosters, booking feeds, sheriff or corrections pages, court and government portals, legal-aid resources, news pages, and outside search services. We do not control and are not responsible for another site’s content, accuracy, availability, security, or data practices. An outbound link does not amount to endorsement. Review the destination’s own terms and privacy notice before using it.
Service Provided Without Warranties
The website and all information, links, and features are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no promise that:
- Information will be accurate, complete, or current
- The website will operate continuously without interruption
- Pages or systems will be free of mistakes, defects, or security weaknesses
- A partner search will return every relevant or correct result
Custody status, court files, and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Fulton County Sheriff, a court, a correctional agency, or another government body. Confirm important facts with the office that created the record.
Limits of Responsibility
To the greatest extent allowed by applicable law, Fulton County Recent Arrests and its owners, operators, contributors, and partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from access to, inability to access, reliance on, or use of the website or an external resource.
Your Duty to Indemnify
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Fulton County Recent Arrests, along with its owners, operators, contributors, and partners, from claims, losses, obligations, damages, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, resulting from your use of the website or your violation of these terms.

Unless a page states otherwise, the text, original graphics, logos, design elements, and code used by Fulton County Recent Arrests belong to the site or its content partners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. You may not copy, republish, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from those materials without prior written permission.
Revisions to These Terms
We may revise these terms at any time. A new version takes effect when it is posted on this page. Continued use after a revision means that the version then published governs your access.
Suspension or Termination of Access
We may restrict, suspend, or end access to some or all of the website at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This authority includes action taken to protect the site, its users, or another person.
Illinois Law Controls
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Illinois.
If One Provision Cannot Be Enforced
