Minnesota Busted Mugshots is privately operated and has no connection to a government agency, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. It is a reference service for Minnesota arrest-record and booking-photo sources, not a government file room or private investigation firm. Neither the site nor its advertising partners are consumer reporting agencies or offer reports for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening decisions.
Nature of This Service
This private site is not affiliated with a government office and does not store official Minnesota arrest or court records. It cannot confirm custody, change a release status, or file a document for a visitor.
The pages describe record types and point to county, state, court, and federal sources. The Minnesota Government Data Practices Act governs public access to government data; it does not make this private site the custodian of those records. Search boxes may also connect to outside research providers.
Rules for Acceptable Use
- Follow the law while viewing or using site materials.
- Do not use information to stalk, threaten, or harass anyone.
- Do not use the material to make an FCRA-covered decision about another person.
- Do not try to access systems or data without authorization.
- Do not scrape, automate, or copy the site at scale.
- Do not interfere with another visitor's use of the service.
No FCRA Consumer Reports
Minnesota Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The site does not offer consumer reports or screening services, and its search partners do not provide FCRA-compliant reports through this service. Visitors agree not to use site information for any purpose covered by the FCRA, including:
- Hiring, promotion, or firing decisions
- Housing or tenant-screening decisions
- Credit or insurance decisions
- Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
- Any other use regulated by the FCRA
Links to Outside Services
The site links to Minnesota county jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, county sites, legal resources, and outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. Each outside provider controls its own content, privacy practices, pricing, and availability; visitors should read that provider's terms before use.
Information Comes As Is
All pages and tools are provided “as is” and “as available.” No promise is made that they will be:
- Accurate, complete, or current
- Available without interruption
- Free of errors, defects, or security problems
- Complete in the results supplied by a search partner
Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement from a Minnesota sheriff, jail, court, or government agency. Confirm important information with the office that holds the record.
