Locating Georgia Criminal Records
The Georgia Crime Information Center (GCIC) operates an online database of criminal records, but they do not dispense the information manually to the public. Instead, individuals can also go online to the GCIC’s “felon search” site to pay $15 with a credit card to look up criminal records. Alternatively, the GCIC also suggests that individuals visit a local law enforcement agency to obtain a copy of their criminal record for not more than $20.
Who Can Obtain Georgia Criminal Records?
Anyone may request a Georgia criminal record or background check, and if you are requesting a criminal record for another person, you will receive all conviction information that is of public record.
