Yes you can you probably need to go to your state's supreme court web site. It is required to be open to the public. Oklahoma has one at oscn.net.

You can, but it is not going to be anywhere close to complete, unless you pay for it.
If Billy gets arrested and charged with a crime, and pleads guilty, in the local Courthouse (as 99.99999% of the cases do), the case is not going to be recorded on the Internet. If you Google, or do any other search, you are only going to find those published cases decided by the Courts of Appeals or (in a few jurisdictions) published cases from Trial Courts. Trial Courts only publish those cases that involve legal questions raised by the prosecution or defense, and which are worthy of publication.
In my County, 24000 people are arrested each year (which does not include those people who receive a summons or ticket). The number of published opinions coming from my County during the year is under 50.

Not all state Supreme Courts store information regarding everyday criminals. Florida allows you to purchase a state criminal history from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, but that will only have charges from Florida, and even then not all of them.

SOME STATES will have information available on line BUT
not all..ZABASEARCH will try and get you to pay for info that may or may not be relavent. Public Records are available online for many States and countys..there used to be sites available that provided links to various databases at no charge..but now most need some cash or advertising support. Good Luck
