Are Criminal & Arrest Records Publicly Available in Wisconsin?
Statute 19.35 within the Wisconsin State Legislature states that criminal records are publicly accessible, and anyone has the right to inspect, copy, and receive copies of records.
The steps for finding free Wisconsin state records offer detailed information on obtaining various types of public records, while the information below is geared towards arrest and criminal record information.
No matter what’s what’s being searched for, it’s important to keep in mind that under the Wisconsin Department of Justice Statute Chapter 165.82, there will be a criminal history search fee for most type of record checks.
There are a few exceptions to this rule. As outlined under Wisconsin Statute 938.396, juvenile records must be kept separate from adult records and will not be accessible to the public.1 Additionally, other records that have been sealed or expunged will not be publicly accessible.
Other statutes and agencies like the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) limit the reporting of criminal background checks, both of which will be covered in depth below.
Arrest Records vs Criminal Records Searches: Explained
Even though criminal and arrest records may be similar, they have apparent differences that are important to be aware of.
Wisconsin arrest records will show details, including whether an individual was arrested, taken into custody, held for investigation, and whether or not they were indicted for any offense.2 These results will be more limited and, in some cases, will only show suspicion that a crime was committed without proof of guilt.
On the other hand, a criminal record will always provide significantly more information, including arrest details which will find out someone’s charges in jail, the case outcome, information on sentencing and jail admissions, and information on probation or parolee databases.
To go even further, these records will also show historical data making them a useful tool to check if someone has a criminal record from years ago.
Simply put, criminal records provide much more information after the arrest occurred, and arrest records simply find out if someone is in custody, and helps individuals find out what someone was arrested for.
How To Run a Free Wisconsin Arrest Records Search To See Who’s in Jail, Mugshots & the Reason for Detainment
There are different ways to find out if someone was arrested in Wisconsin, from searching WI county jail inmate records to directly contacting the county sheriff’s office by phone. The first step to determine who’s in jail is to find out where the arrest occurred.
Then check county jails and the sheriff’s office’s inmate search tools, when applicable, as these often show daily arrest reports for free.
To find out if someone is in jail, it’s of utmost importance to consider where they were arrested and to have their legal first and last name.
Look Up Arrests in Wisconsin Through County Jails’ Online Inmate Rosters & the County Sheriff’s Offices
When the county where the arrest occurred is known, an effective way to look up Wisconsin arrest records is by using the county jail inmate search tool, if applicable, or by contacting that county’s sheriff’s office.
The table below lists every Wisconsin’s County sheriff’s office inmate search tools if they have one, their contact information, the jail’s contact if it’s any different, and an X or ✓ to indicate whether or not they display mugshots:
While the most effective first step when wanting to find daily arrests is utilizing the county jail search features, looking into city jails can also be helpful. City jails may hold individuals for up to 24 hours before transferring them to a county jail.
Wisconsin has no city jails; instead, 36 facilities are run by the state. The most updated National Institute of Corrections census states there are 76 jails in 72 counties.3
If all else fails, employ the services of a bail bondsman to help find out who’s in jail.
How To Bail Someone Out of Jail & Get Ahold of an Arrestee in Wisconsin
Due to the fact that each jail has slightly different processes and rules when it comes to visiting inmates, it’s best to contact the facility directly or access visitation information on their websites which are listed in the table above. By doing this, it can be assured that the most up-to-date information is obtained.
From the sheriff’s website, navigate to the county jail section to view updated information on their visitation policies. Another option would be to call the sheriff’s office or county jail for guidance. Again, these phone numbers can also be found above.
Like the differing policies for visitation, some jails may have slightly different policies for bail. Because of this, it is also recommended to check out the county jail or sheriff’s office website for information on how to bail someone out.
To simplify things, it’s always possible to hire a bail bondsman to help navigate the process of posting bail.
How To Retrieve Wisconsin Criminal Records (WI Criminal History Search Options)
Wisconsin criminal records are stored at the local county courthouse, so contacting the county Clerk of Court would be an effective way to obtain these records.
Wisconsin also has a statewide search feature through the Wisconsin Circuit Court Access. This search is free and provides a lot of valuable information on a case and individual.
Finally, someone can request a background check through the Wisconsin Department of Justice Online Record Check System. Background checks in Wisconsin are covered in detail later below.
Find Criminal Records Through the Counties’ Clerk of Courts (Wisconsin)
Contacting the county’s Clerk of Court is an effective first step for obtaining older criminal records.
While most counties within Wisconsin do not have a criminal history record search database, each county provides instructions on requesting records in person at the courthouse.
The table below depicts a complete list of the 72 different county Clerk’s Offices, including both the physical address and the county website:

Run a Statewide Criminal Record Search via Wisconsin’s Circuit Court Access (WCCA) System
There is a statewide online directory through the Wisconsin Circuit Court Access (WCCA) that is used to search all counties at one time easily.
This online database was established in 1999 to provide greater public access to government records per Wisconsin’s Open Records Law and as part of the Consolidated Court Automation Programs (CCAP).
The advanced case search would be most beneficial when looking for Wisconsin criminal records because someone can filter the results by case type compared to the simple search that does not allow this filter.
The last name is the only required input to get results. Remembering that common last names may populate too many results is important. Therefore a first name would be required to narrow the search.
Someone can filter by county or search the entire state. If the case is closed, information relating to the outcome of the case will populate, including the charges, specifics of the court records, any notes taken, and more.
If the case is open, the search will explicitly state that the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty, but more information will come up after clicking “view case details.”
If there are any issues or hiccups while using the tool, the frequently asked question page has additional insight
How To Obtain Copies of Your Own Criminal Record in Wisconsin
Individuals requesting criminal records can do so directly through the Wisconsin State Patrol Open Records. There are nine designated records custodians based on the region for the Wisconsin State Patrol. Navigate to the above website to find the record coordinator in the desired area.
For additional ways to obtain criminal records in Wisconsin, contact the Clerk of Court or the county’s sheriff’s department. To do this, contact the specific county using the court and sheriff’s office phone numbers in the table above for more information.
How To See If Someone Is on Probation or Parole in Wisconsin
Parole and probation search information can be obtained through the Wisconsin Department of Correction for those who served time in state prison.
Those serving time through parole or probation will be listed as “Active Community Supervision” and have a list of specific rules of supervision they must follow.4
To illustrate just how many people are on probation and parole, the following image shows the combined total of probationers and parolees in Wisconsin, along with their ethnicities.
Furthermore, these totals are also compared to the number of individuals on community supervision (including probation and parole) in other states across the United States.
It’s valuable to keep in mind that there are some notable differences between parole and probation. Parole usually means released from prison and is assigned to those who committed major offenses. On the other hand, probation is set for someone who has served little to no time in jail and was convicted of a minor offense or misdemeanor.
Another way to determine if someone is on parole in Wisconsin or to see who’s serving probation in WI would be to contact the assigned Probation & Parole Agent.
This information can be found by contacting the local Division of Community Corrections Office or the Department of Corrections Records Office at 608-240-3750. Navigate to the full list of adult probation or parole offices to find which office is in the county nearest to you.
It may be worth checking the Federal Bureau of Prisons if looking for a federally charged inmate.
This search platform may be helpful because this database shows historical information for anyone who went to a federal prison. Always remember that this website does not clearly state that the inmate is on parole but shows when they were released, which may indicate they are on parole, but there is no guarantee.
VINELink can be utilized as a last resort as it may show probation information, but it is always advised to check the above resources first.
How To Seal or Expunge a Criminal Record in Wisconsin: Process To ‘Erase’ Records
Wisconsin arrest records becomes a criminal and for certain cases, they can be removed from a criminal record if all criteria are met.5
Wisconsin law allows the removal of an arrest fingerprint card if:
- Someone was arrested and found not to be guilty,
- The court or prosecutor dismissed the charges, or
- The prosecutor filed no charges.
If convicted of the crime, the individual would not be eligible to have the Wisconsin criminal records expunged.
It is important to know that there are 2 cases where a convicted case may be expunged:
- Misdemeanors or some felonies committed by someone under the age of 25 at the time of sentencing and after completing the sentencing.
- Juvenile delinquency adjudications upon request once the individual reaches age 17.
To request a record removed, form DJ-LE-250B must be completed. The completed form must be sent to:
Crime Information Bureau
Criminal History Unit
P.O. Box 2718
Madison, WI 53701
There is no fee associated with this request.
Wisconsin has no auto-expunge or auto-seal policy, and applying for the records to be sealed is always required.
Wisconsin Statute 801.21 covers the protocol for requesting a record to be sealed. While some court record information is private such as social security and driver’s license numbers all other records desired to be sealed, such as antitrust actions, confidential informants, restraining orders, trade secret litigation, medical and psychological records, and crime victim and witness statements, are done by filing a motion to seal.
The decision for which records are sealed is made by the court and in order to request a record to be sealed Forms GF-245-247 must be completed.
To help simplify the process, obtaining legal counsel from an attorney or lawyer is advised.
How To Check Prisoner Records in Wisconsin: WI State & Federal Prisons
The State of Wisconsin Department of Corrections has a Free Inmate Locator which provides information on convicted offenders currently incarcerated in a state prison or under community supervision. This search does not show information about offenders in a county jail or juvenile offenders.
The search can be done with the inmate’s first or last name, demographics including their race, gender, age, their address, or the DOC number. Filtering results only to show those currently in jail or under community supervision is also possible. If the search generates more than 2000 results, the system will require additional criteria to be entered to narrow the results.
The results from the search will show the inmate’s first and last name, zip code, county, race, birth year, and current status. After clicking on an inmate’s name, significantly more information will populate, including a mugshot database, details of their status, and a direct link to the Wisconsin Circuit Court Access providing details of their case.
There are 19 adult institutions, 14 facilities under the Wisconsin Correctional Center System, 3 Wisconsin Women’s Correctional System facilities, and five juvenile facilities and regional offices.
Finally, if someone is curious to find historical information on a federally charged inmate, search the Federal Bureau of Prison (BOP). Both the first and last names are required, or the search can be done with the inmate number. The federal prison is located in Oxford, Wisconsin, and is the FCI Oxford prison.
How To Know if You or Someone Else Has a Warrant in Wisconsin
While Wisconsin does not have a statewide search for warrants, contacting the specific county would be the best way to see if someone has a warrant out for their arrest. For example, Portage County has an active warrant list on its website that is updated every two weeks.
To find warrant information on any individual in Wisconsin, search “[Name of county] Wisconsin warrant search” to get county-specific information. I.e. “Milwaukee County Wisconsin warrant search”.
If applicable, there will be a warrant search through the sheriff’s county website. Otherwise, use the sheriff’s office phone number and website in the county jail table above to contact the office directly to obtain this information.
Moreover, individual can also consider checking the Wisconsin Circuit Court Access (WCCA). This website allows Wisconsin citizens access certain public records including warrant information. Alternatively, they can contact the local law enforcement agency or county clerk of court where the person resides or where the alleged offense occurred.
Furthermore, the Wisconsin Department of Corrections will list individuals as “Absconded” if they have not checked in with their parole or probation officer.
While this is no guarantee this individual currently has a warrant out for their arrest, in Wisconsin, under the Community Corrections guidelines, if someone stops reporting to their agent or the agent cannot locate the individual, an warrant will be issued and if the person is detained, they’ll have another Wisconsin arrest record on their rap sheet.6
Federal warrants are issued by the U.S. Marshals and housed under the Warrant Information System (WIN) but can not be accessed by the public. The Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) may also be utilized for a nationwide search, however, this option requires fee to search for records.
Background Checks in Wisconsin: An Overview
Background checks are used for personal and professional reasons. Employment, firearm purchases, adoption applications, security clearance checks, and sometimes residency are all potential reasons why a background check would be utilized.
Professional background checks must abide by all federal and state laws and require consent from the person being investigated. These verify personal information for various reasons, from employment, residency, and adoptions. These searches are all-encompassing and will search criminal records, including arrest reports, education, credit histories, and on occasion, social media.
It’s important to remember that all professional background checks must abide by federal and state laws. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) oversees background checks. It ensures no discrimination, and everyone is given the same opportunity regardless of race, gender, national origin, religion, etc.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) further protects individuals as it states that background check reports cannot be provided to anyone that doesn’t have a purpose.
To further understand background checks in Wisconsin, keep in mind there are two types of background checks: Level 1 and Level 2.
- Level 1 checks are searched by name or name and social security number. These will only look at local records, such as those in the state or county.
- These are requested at the state level with the state police of the Bureau of Investigation or the county level.
- Level 2 background checks are searched by fingerprints. These checks are more intensive and all-inclusive, looking at national records and providing historical information.
- Always are requested by sending fingerprints to the FBI.
- Are used for employment involving at-risk populations such as those with older people or children, healthcare professionals, and some C-level positions such as chief executive officers and chief operating officers.
Most often, level 2 background checks are more accurate because they are searched by fingerprints and are executed by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI).
Additionally, these checks provide more information, including previous addresses, employers, marital status, credit history, educational and professional certifications, misdemeanors, felony registry cases, pending criminal cases, civil judgments, current arrests, sex crimes, and prison or jail records.
When obtaining a background check for personal reasons, anyone can investigate background information on anyone without prior consent from the individual.
Through these searches, someone can find various information such as criminal records, personal information, employment history, addresses, etc. The information found through personal background checks can not be used for harassment, stalking, hate crimes, etc.
Additionally, personal background checks often entail public record searches through court criminal record searches, state police searches, and third-party people finder services can also be utilized to search many different counties, cities, and states at once.
Background checks can be requested directly through the Department of Justice Wisconsin Online Record Check System. Someone can request a background check and retrieve results online through this website.
A free account can be created to update and view records through the record check site easily. Still, to submit a background check without registering, it’s important to write down the order reference number to retrieve the results at another time. There is a $7 fee for obtaining online background check records.
How To Navigate the Wisconsin Sex Offender Registry
The state has a statewide sex offender public records repository under the Wisconsin Department of Corrections Sex Offender Registry.
This registry can be searched by name or geographically using an address or zip code.
It’s also possible for someone to register for community notifications which means receiving updates via email when a sex offender registers a home address near an address of interest.
The results will include a photo of the individual, vehicle information, DOC number, aliases, and offenses. An individual still incarcerated will also show up on this result list.
There is the option to search the national sex offender registry through the United States Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website for a large overview of the entire country.
An Explanation of Your Rights & Laws Pertaining To Criminal & Arrest Records in Wisconsin
Wisconsin Statutes 19.31 to 19.39 state that criminal records are publicly accessible, instead in certain circumstances such as expunged or juvenile records.7

Personal background checks and criminal record searches can be done without someone’s consent. However, professional background checks and searches, such as those for property management, licensing, or jobs, must abide by all state, local, and federal laws, such as FCRA, and all guidelines implemented by the EEOC.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) protects individuals from discrimination.9 It ensures everyone is given the same opportunity and held to the same standards regardless of race, age, disabilities, etc.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) further protects individuals by requiring written permission for the background check to be run and requiring the employer to disclose what information was used to decide on the employment.10 It states that the applicant can be given a copy of the consumer report if desired.
