Why We Built This Site
Alabama records do not sit in one public database. The Tallapoosa County Sheriff's Department creates local reports and booking data. Circuit Clerk Patrick Craddock keeps District and Circuit Court case files, dispositions, and certified copies at the Dadeville courthouse. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Criminal Justice Information Services Division maintains fingerprint-linked criminal history, while the Alabama Department of Corrections and Alabama Sex Offender Registry answer separate custody and registration questions. This site gathers official contacts, search portals, published charges, and request steps so a reader can begin with the office that holds the needed record.
What You Will Find Here
- Agency contacts: the Tallapoosa County sheriff, Circuit Clerk, courts, and state offices that maintain local records

- Expungement routes: where Alabama petitions are filed and which official sources explain the process
What We Cannot Do
This is a privately run reference site. We have no connection to an Alabama court, sheriff's office, police department, or state agency. There are real limits to what we can help with:
- We cannot run an official background check or pull a criminal record for anyone
- We cannot file expungement petitions, records requests, or any other paperwork on your behalf
- We cannot issue certified copies of any criminal record, court document, or rap sheet
- We cannot give legal advice or explain how a specific charge or case applies to you
- We cannot promise that every published phone number, fee, address, or office hour remains current
Only the issuing office, such as the Tallapoosa County sheriff, Circuit Clerk, or Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, can provide an official criminal record. This resource can identify the proper channel, but it cannot issue the document.
Search Partners
Third-party providers power search boxes that appear on some pages. Each provider controls its own service, prices, terms, and result set. A paid registration reached through one of those tools may generate a referral fee that helps support the site. Tallapoosa County Criminal History does not set partner charges and cannot control, certify, or correct partner results.
