Davidson County Arrest Records
Davidson County arrest records are public under the North Carolina Public Records Act, meaning the public has the right to access them as soon as they are created. Arrest records are primarily maintained by the arresting agency and are separate from court records that are maintained by the Clerk of Court. The following details are usually found in a Davidson County arrest record:
- The full name of the person arrested and a basic description, including their gender, age, weight, and height
- Information about the arrest event, including the arrest date, location, and arresting agency
- The description of the offense committed
- Booking and detention details
However, while arrest records are generally public, not all information in a record is public. Some details that are exempt from public disclosure are sensitive information meant for law enforcement eyes alone, while other exempted information is usually the private details of the arrestee.
