Awesome Literally anyone over 18 that has even gotten a speeding is able to look up.
Your system is combing me and my dad because I am a Jr. Also there should be a middle initial option.
Some things I know for sure are wrong but if it's not reported to you I guess you have no way of knowing. I see you have my X husband listed as dead. I can only hope you're right.

Dear Carol,
At Public Information Services we receive our data from thousands of unique sources, each state retrieves information differently from their counties and various departments. For some records, we know exactly what crimes were committed with an accurate disposition and all related information. For others, we don't know what exact crime was committed and don't have an exact report. In addition, we have found that states have different definitions of what can be digitally archived so it is always best to call your local county court, public defender's office, or police department if you have a question about the specific classification of a criminal history. We choose to show our members all of the data that we are given even if some of it is incomplete so that our members have more information rather than less.
One of the key features of our membership is your ability to run unlimited background searches and create reports on as many people as you like. We recommend everyone does a check on themselves and their loved ones so that you know what information is publicly available, you could be surprised and some of the information might not be correct. In addition, you can have us monitor up to four people at a time so if any of their information changes in our database, you will get an email alert updating you of that change.
If you have any additional questions please reply to this email or contact us at 1-800-617-3169 from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. PST 7 days a week and any of our helpful team members will be happy to assist you further. If for some reason one of our team members is not available, simply leave us a detailed message and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
We look forward to helping you protect your family with our service and our benefits.
