Bradley County, TN Arrests & Jail Records

How To Search Bradley County Arrest Records?

According to the Tennessee Incident-Based Reporting System (TIBRS), Tennessee reports around 256,000 arrests per year, of which Bradley County makes about 4,600 of those arrests. Many records, including arrest records, are public pursuant to the Tennessee Public Records Act. Some records, however, fall under the non-disclosure provision due to the sensitive information contained on those records. These records include open investigation, mental health, juvenile, adoption, and medical records.

However, certain entities are given access to non-public (redacted and sealed) records, including the subjects of the records, their legal representatives, the District Attorney, and law enforcement officers. Searching an arrest record will usually warrant a fee. Therefore, parties interested in finding criminal records may be required to pay a certain amount to access them.
