NO FCRA USE. This privately owned website is not affiliated with a local, West Virginia, or federal government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act screening. It is a Marion County records reference, not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site with no government connection. It neither stores official criminal records nor retrieves files, conducts official checks, or submits documents for a visitor.
Its role is to identify the Marion County Sheriff's Records Clerk, Circuit and Magistrate courts, West Virginia State Police Central State Repository, West Virginia Sex Offender Registry, and other official channels, along with outside tools that may aid lawful personal research.
2. Rules for Using This Site
By using the site, you agree not to:
- Use bots, scrapers, or another automated collection tool against these pages
- Threaten, stalk, or harass a person with information found here
- Violate any local, West Virginia, or federal law
- Use site content for hiring, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
- Attempt unauthorized entry into any system or account
- Disrupt access, slow the service, or interfere with another visitor
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No one may use this site or a linked tool to harass, stalk, threaten, intimidate, or discriminate against another person. That restriction is especially important for the West Virginia Sex Offender Registry. Its official disclaimer warns against threats and harassment, and misuse may prompt a criminal investigation. Registry disclosure serves public safety awareness, never vigilante action or unlawful discrimination.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and produce no credit report, consumer report, or official background check. Our partners' tools are not offered here for job, rental, insurance, or credit screening. You agree not to use site or linked data to:
- Evaluate credit or determine an insurance rate
- Make an employment or termination decision
- Screen a renter or housing applicant
- Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or public program
- Carry out any other FCRA-regulated decision
A legally authorized check should be obtained through the West Virginia State Police and its approved fingerprint process, or through a compliant consumer reporting provider suitable for that purpose.
5. No Legal Advice
Site content is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Marion County charge, conviction, warrant, or West Virginia expungement statute applies to a particular person. Consult a licensed West Virginia attorney for advice.
6. No Warranties
All content is supplied "as is." We make no promise that:
- A partner's search result will be complete or correctly matched
- Every detail will always be accurate, complete, and current
- The website will operate without interruption
- Pages will contain no error, defect, or security weakness
Charges, dispositions, custody status, sealing, and expungement can change what an official record shows. Gaps and delays are possible. Only the Marion County or West Virginia office that holds a record can make an official statement about it.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links lead to Marion County offices, court portals, West Virginia agencies, legal resources, and outside search services. We do not control those destinations and are not responsible for their content, prices, availability, or handling of visitor data. Review each destination's terms before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Marion County Criminal History or its content partners. Copying, modifying, distributing, or creating derivative material requires prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for damages arising from use of this website or reliance on information supplied here or by a linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, demands, or proceedings caused by your use of the site or violation of these terms, including related legal costs.
11. Governing Law
West Virginia law governs these terms. Any dispute arising from use of the site must be brought in a court located in West Virginia. Public-record access remains subject to the West Virginia Freedom of Information Act, W. Va. Code Chapter 29B, while state criminal-history dissemination is governed in part by W. Va. Code §15-2-24.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these terms. A revised version takes effect when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.
14. Severability
If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in force. The affected language will be narrowed only as needed to make it enforceable.
