NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no government affiliation. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for employment, credit, tenant, or insurance screening, or another purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). It identifies public criminal-record sources in Adams County, Washington. It is neither a private-investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is an independent private reference site. It does not store official records, retrieve them for a visitor, conduct an official background check, or submit documents on anyone's behalf.
The site directs readers to custodians of Adams County records, including the Sheriff, criminal courts, Washington State Patrol, and the Washington Sex Offender Public Registry. It may also provide access to third-party research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Use of the site is conditioned on an agreement not to:
- Interfere with access or degrade site performance
- Use automated bots or scraping tools on site pages
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system
- Use content to stalk, threaten, or harass a person
- Apply site information to hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions
- Violate a federal, Washington, or local law
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No information obtained here or through a linked tool may be used to threaten, stalk, intimidate, harass, or discriminate against anyone. Misuse may violate the law. Washington registry data is supplied for public-safety awareness, and RCW 4.24.550 does not authorize vigilantism or retaliation against a person listed in the Washington Sex Offender Public Registry.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

- Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose
A lawful regulated check must be obtained through an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider or the required official Washington State Patrol channel.
5. No Legal Advice
Site material is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed Washington attorney can advise how a warrant, charge, conviction, vacation rule, or sealing standard applies to a particular matter.
6. No Warranties
All material and services are provided "as is." No promise is made that:
- A partner's search result will be complete or correct
- The site will operate without interruption
- Every page will remain free of defects or security flaws
- Information will always be current, accurate, or complete
Criminal records change as charges are filed, resolved, vacated, or sealed. Gaps and delays are possible. Nothing published here is an official statement from a court, the Sheriff, WSP, or another government office.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
External links lead to resources outside our control, including court portals, Sheriff and state-agency sites, legal services, and search providers. We are not responsible for an outside site's availability, content, pricing, or handling of data. Review its terms before use.
8. Intellectual Property
