Terms & Conditions

These terms govern your use of DeWitt County Recent Arrests. By browsing or using its pages and linked tools, you agree to follow them. If you do not accept these conditions, do not use the site.

DeWitt County Recent Arrests is a privately operated reference site, not a government agency and not affiliated with a sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners provide consumer-reporting or screening services for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant purposes. We help readers find DeWitt County and Illinois inmate and jail-record resources; we are not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).


What the Site Provides

This is an independent guide, not a public office. It does not hold official records, confirm custody, release anyone, or file documents. DeWitt County's jail does not publish a searchable live roster; the county guide directs readers to call the jail for a current custody check. Arrest reports, court cases, and later prison or federal custody each belong to their own agency or locator.

Pages identify possible sources such as the DeWitt County Sheriff's Office, local police departments, Judici, Illinois corrections, and outside search providers. The Illinois Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140), with its exemptions, governs requests to Illinois public bodies for records they maintain. This site is not a public body, and a page here is not an official county record.


Permitted Use and Conduct

  • Use the site only in ways allowed by law.
  • Do not use information from it to stalk, harass, threaten, or intimidate anyone.
  • Do not use its content for a decision covered by the FCRA, as described below.
  • Do not try to access restricted systems, accounts, or data without authorization.
  • Do not run automated bots or scrapers against the site.
  • Do not interfere with other visitors' access or disrupt the service.

No Consumer Reports or FCRA Use

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not prepare background checks, credit reports, or other consumer reports. Search and advertising partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use information here or in a linked tool for any FCRA-covered purpose, including:

  • Employment decisions, including hiring or firing
  • Housing or tenant screening
  • Creditworthiness or insurance decisions and premiums
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other use regulated by the FCRA

Outside Links and Sponsored Results

Links and search boxes may connect to jail or booking sources, sheriff and corrections sites, government portals, legal-aid resources, and commercial search tools. Those services set their own terms and privacy practices and control their content and availability. A sponsored result or outbound link is not an endorsement by DeWitt County Recent Arrests. Review the destination's terms before you submit information or rely on a result.


Provided Without Warranties

Pages, links, and tools are supplied "as is" and "as available." We make no warranty or promise about:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or currency of information
  • Continuous or uninterrupted site access
  • Freedom from errors, defects, or security vulnerabilities
  • The coverage or quality of third-party search results

Custody status and public records change. Nothing on these pages is an official statement from a sheriff's office or another government agency. Confirm current information with the office that maintains it.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DeWitt County Recent Arrests and its operators are not liable for damages arising from your access to or use of the site, its content, linked services, or search results.


Your Responsibility for Claims

You agree to protect and hold harmless the site and its operators from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the site or your violation of these terms.


Ownership of Site Materials

Text, graphics, logos, and code on DeWitt County Recent Arrests belong to the site or its content partners. Do not copy, distribute, or modify protected materials without written permission from the owner, except where applicable law permits it.


Revisions to These Terms

We may change these terms at any time. A revised version takes effect when it is posted on this page, so check this page again when you return.


Access Restrictions

We may limit or end access to the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.


Illinois Law Applies

Illinois law governs these terms and your use of the site, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be filed in a court located within Illinois.


If a Term Cannot Be Enforced

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected provision will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable, if the law allows.
