About Moore County Criminal History

Criminal records in Moore County are divided among the sheriff, court clerks, city police departments, the Texas Department of Public Safety, the state correctional system, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. The correct source depends on whether someone needs a booking entry, a court judgment, a public repository result, or a personal fingerprint review. This privately operated resource brings those official routes into one clear Moore County reference so readers can identify the right office and verify information at its source.

Why We Built This Site

Moore County has no one-stop criminal history database. Felony case files belong to the District Clerk, while the County Clerk handles Class A and B misdemeanor files in the County Court at Law. The Moore County Sheriff's Office keeps sheriff arrest, booking, jail, and incident records. Dumas, Cactus, and Sunray each retain records created by their own police department and municipal court. Texas DPS maintains the statewide Computerized Criminal History system and its public conviction name search.

That split can send a records request to the wrong desk. The goal is to map each record type to its real custodian and provide the official portal, address, phone number, request method, and access limit documented for Moore County. Statewide resources such as re:SearchTX, the TDCJ inmate-information channel map, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry are included where they add a separate record layer.

What We Cannot Do

This is a privately run reference site, not part of Moore County or the State of Texas. It has no authority to access protected systems or act for an official records custodian.

  • We cannot retrieve an official criminal history or run a government background check
  • We cannot issue certified court records, booking files, or DPS records
  • We cannot file a Texas Public Information Act request, expunction petition, or nondisclosure application for a reader
  • We cannot correct a court, sheriff, or DPS record
  • We cannot give legal advice about a charge, warrant, expunction, or registration duty

An official copy must come from the Moore County office or Texas agency that created and maintains the record.

Search Partners

Some search boxes are supplied by third-party providers. A provider controls its own service, prices, results, and privacy practices. If a tool leads to a paid service, this site may receive a referral fee that supports public access to the reference material. Those partner results are not certified Moore County or Texas government records, and the partner tools must not be used for a purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
