Go to the circuit clerk of the court website of your county or the county jail website of your county.
Example: Circuit clerk of the court Harbor county los angeles,ca
Do a search using the county that you're looking for
example: Harbor county arrest records or Harbor county police department.
You can find public records and court records online free if you look for them.

In all my years of law enforcement, I've never known any agency to place police reports themselves on the Internet. It's too time consuming, costly, and no need.
As long as reports are not actively under investigation, public records are available through the clerks office.
You have to remember, even though Incident/Offense Reports may be thought of as public records, victims also have a right to privacy...so expect some MAJOR censorship!

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNCRX
Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.
You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

No because it's a matter of FOIPA (Freedom of Information Privacy Act) laws that govern that. If you're looking for free public records you need to talk with the circuit clerk's office (most likely). If they are regarding YOU than you have a right to them, but must go through proper channels. if not, then you have no right, unless it is a matter of public record (in which case you still have to pay for them)

Confidential info like that isn't kept on-line. You have to go to the Courthouse.
