Free Oklahoma Criminal Records

Although the Internet has certainly made it possible for us to conveniently access information, many public records researchers will agree that the amount of information that is publicly available to us is no more than 20 percent of what is out there. There State Government statutes that prevent the disclosure of certain types of public records. The State of Oklahoma for one does not allow free Oklahoma criminal records to be released to any unauthorized, private individual.
By statute, free Oklahoma criminal records such as juvenile records are considered confidential and are, therefore, unavailable to the public. Only criminal justice agents, judiciary or court officials, and a few authorized individuals, such as those from the social services have access to such documents, and even then, restrictions still apply.
The State of Oklahoma does not have an official central repository of free Oklahoma criminal records. However, some regional databases do exist, such as city databases, county databases, and databases kept by specific State Government offices. As a sort of replacement for its state central repository of free Oklahoma criminal records, the state has established the ODIS, or the Offender Data Information System. This is their way of providing information to public records researchers who may find a need to look into the list of offenders of the state in their search for free Oklahoma criminal records.
What is ODIS?
The ODIS is actually a management software tool for free Oklahoma criminal records. It keeps computerized versions of free Oklahoma criminal records, organizing and maintaining them for easy access and capture. The software design was based on DNA or Distributed interNetwork Architecture, a programming model developed by Microsoft.
The ODIS is basically comprised of three tiers. One serves as the database for storage of free Oklahoma criminal records. Another is a compiled application components used to handle the business logic and the presentation layer which serves as the display screen once the user accesses the free Oklahoma criminal records.
Alternatives to ODIS
Besides the ODIS, there are also several other sources of free Oklahoma criminal records that you can check out. The downside to ODIS is that the information it contains are related to free Oklahoma criminal records of convictions. For records of arrests, court filings, dispositions, and such, you can check out city databases and county databases.
Inmate information is usually kept by the Department of Corrections and made available online via their web portal. You can visit this site and use the search tool provided to look for free Oklahoma criminal records. You may also visit the Clerk of Courts Office which is responsible for keeping all court documents, with or without convictions.
