How To Protect Yourself and Your Family by Running a Criminal Record Check

In today’s society, you can never be too careful. With the ever-increasing migration to the world of ‘tele-everything,’ where anything from dating and social activities to healthcare is done online, more and more people are looking for ways to know exactly who they’re dealing with behind the computer screen.

What most people don’t know is that a simple people search in an online database like unmask.com can find criminal records quickly and easily.

What Are Criminal Records?

A criminal record is a summary of a person’s history in the legal system. Criminal records generally contain a detailed account of any arrests, felonies, misdemeanors, warrants, convictions, court cases, and parole violations. Criminal records may also contain the following identifying information about a person:

  • Full name & aliases
  • Birthdate and age
  • Height and weight
  • Hair and eye color
  • Race or ethnicity
  • Mugshot photographs
  • Tattoos or other marks
  • Fingerprint records

Are Criminal Records Public Information?

Believe it or not, under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), most criminal records for people over the age of 18 are public information in the United States. While laws in some states may vary, most states allow open access to criminal records for anyone who wishes to conduct a criminal record search. However, depending on the court, some criminal record information may be restricted.

How Can I Access Criminal Records?

If you want to obtain a criminal record for yourself or someone else, criminal records can be accessed by contacting the state or county agency that maintains the record. Many government agencies allow in-person searches of the criminal record indexes. It is also possible to submit a criminal record request by mail.

For easier and quicker access, an online people search can also be conducted through unmask.com to obtain a criminal record for any person of interest.

What Are Some Reasons for Searching Criminal Records on Unmask.com?

There are numerous reasons why someone may want to consider doing a criminal record search through the people search on unmask.com. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • Knowing who your neighbors are

    Moving to a new neighborhood is stressful enough without having to wonder what kind of people live nearby. And with more and more home searches being conducted online, having a way to screen your future neighbors has become even more crucial. By using a quick people search through unmask.com, you can keep your family safe from any neighbors who may have a dangerous criminal record.

  • Finding the truth about someone's past

    People are frequently less than honest when it comes to their histories, especially when their histories include criminal activity. Through a people search on unmask.com, you can find out whether the people in your life can be truly trusted.

  • Meeting people online

    Whether it’s for dating, networking, or socializing, meeting people online has become increasingly common. However, it’s not always easy to know the true intentions or nature of the people you meet. By conducting a criminal record check through unmask.com, you can protect yourself from coming into contact with people who may wish to cause you harm.

  • Learning about the legal outcomes of a court case

    Do you have someone in your life who has been in trouble with the law? Have you ever wondered what the outcome of their court case was? Do you question whether they served time in jail for the crime they committed? Through an online people search with unmask.com, you can obtain criminal records that will give you all of the details you have been seeking.

  • Relocating abroad

    There are a variety of situations, including school attendance and employment, where a United States citizen may be asked to present proof to a foreign entity that they do not have a criminal history. If you are planning to work or attend school in a country that requires you to furnish proof that you do not have a criminal history, you can use the people search on unmask.com to show that there is no criminal record under your name in the system.

  • Performing a self-check

    If you have a criminal record that should not be available to the public, you may want to consider doing a criminal record search on yourself. By plugging your name and location into the unmask.com people search, you will be able to confirm that your criminal record has been removed from the system and that your records don’t contain any details that should not be disclosed to others.
