This Is Not a Government Office. This privately operated reference site cannot retrieve an official record, conduct an official check, change a criminal history, or accept a petition to vacate a conviction. Those services must come from the responsible public office.
Need an Official Record?
Use the record type to choose the right Jefferson County or Washington custodian:
- Police reports: contact the Jefferson County Sheriff or Port Townsend Police Department, whichever wrote the report
- Court case files: review the criminal court case records routes, then contact Superior Court Clerk or District Court
- Arrest, booking, and jail records: use the Jefferson County Jail roster or Sheriff Administrative Services
- State criminal histories: order the appropriate WATCH or fingerprint product from the Washington State Patrol
- Vacating or sealing a record: file with the Jefferson County court that entered the judgment
- Registry records: use Jefferson OffenderWatch or call the Sheriff for registration-process questions
