How to Search for Warrant Records

What are warrants? Warrants, in legal dictionaries, are “a form of legal authority granted by a court to a person for the execution of some lawful act.” In common usage, however, warrant is used to refer to a warrant for arrest made by a law enforcement authority. Warrants may be issued when someone is suspected of committing a crime, or if there is reason to believe that person committed a crime while they were not at home.

Warrant records contain the name of the person accused of the crime, their address, and other information about the person. If a warrant is issued against a person, it does not mean they are in custody. A warrant only means that the person has been accused of an offense. Warrants can be renewed, withdrawn, or replaced. Warrant records in Walthall County are maintained by the Mississippi State Highway Patrol, and are available to law officials for the issuance of warrants, and for searching out someone who doesn’t have a warrant, or for investigative purposes. Per state law, anyone who looks up someone else’s record must tell the person they are looking up whether or not they had a warrant issued against them, or give them the signature of the officer who issued the warrant.

How are warrants searched for in Mississippi? When a person’s name is typed into a state police arrest record database, they can search that person’s records. Warrants can be searched through a fingerprint database. Some people worry that having their fingerprints scanned or their voice recorded will allow people to dig up dirt on them. The fact is, a person’s fingerprint is one of the most foolproof methods of having their information found. Even when a person’s voice is on a recording, the voice can easily be rerecorded.

Is it possible to be convicted of a crime and not have any records of it? Yes, it is. In cases where there is no evidence of a crime, but a person’s name is on a list of people accused of a crime, it can be easy to find out about a person’s past. If the person has committed a crime, but no warrant was issued against them, it may be easy to find out whether they were properly convicted. People can be legally convicted of crimes without actually serving time in jail. Warrant records in Walthall County are a great way to find out about a person’s background, if they have been legally convicted of a crime, or if they were arrested but the charges were later dropped.

Who is considered “known” to have criminal intentions? Anybody who is on probation, parole, or has been in and out of jail, is considered to have criminal intentions. A person who has multiple traffic violations, or has a prior criminal history of any kind can be considered to have criminal intentions as well. Anybody who is suspected of committing any type of crime involving a weapon, or who is on probation or parole should be reported to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

Searching for information about a person’s record in Walthall County using warrants is quick, easy, and free. Warrant records in Walthall County are easy to access online. Many of the state highway Patrol offices do not list the names of their personnel records online. However, the records that are listed online are comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date.
