Terms of Use

Nature of the Website

This site is a private reference resource. It does not hold Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department records, and no government office controls its content. We cannot verify whether someone remains in custody, change a release decision, file a request or court paper for a visitor, or issue an official record.

The site points readers toward Los Angeles County inmate, booking, jail, court, and public-record resources. Some features also connect visitors to independent research tools operated by third parties.

Acceptable Use Rules

• Do not use the site in violation of any applicable law.
• Do not use information to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone.
• Do not make credit, employment, housing, lending, insurance, or other regulated eligibility decisions from site content.
• Do not attempt to enter accounts, servers, or systems without authorization.
• Do not operate automated bots, crawlers, or scrapers against the site.
• Do not interfere with site access or service for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports or Screening

Los Angeles County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and does not supply background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports. Its advertising and search partners do not provide screening services through this site. By using the site, you agree that its content and linked results will not be used for:

• Hiring, firing, promotion, or another employment decision.
• Tenant selection, leasing, or any housing decision.
• Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing.
• Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government benefit.
• Any other decision regulated by the FCRA.

External Sites and Services

Links may lead to jail rosters, booking feeds, sheriff and corrections sites, court or agency portals, legal-aid resources, and independent search services. A link is provided for convenience and is not an endorsement. We do not control an outside site’s content, privacy practices, data handling, availability, or security. Visitors should read the destination’s terms before using it.

Service Provided As Is

The site and all information available through it are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, we make no warranty concerning:

• The accuracy, completeness, or current status of information.
• Continuous or uninterrupted availability.
• The absence of errors, bugs, or security flaws.
• The scope or completeness of a partner’s search results.

Custody entries and public records can change quickly. Nothing displayed here is an official statement from LASD, a police department, a court, CDCR, or another government agency. Confirm the information with the office that created it.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Los Angeles County Busted Mugshots and its owners, operators, and content partners will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from access to, use of, or inability to use the site or a linked service.

Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the site, its owners, operators, and partners from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the site or your violation of these terms.

Ownership of Site Materials

Unless stated otherwise, the site’s original text, graphics, logos, design elements, and code belong to Los Angeles County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, republished, distributed, altered, or used to create another work without prior written permission.

Revisions to These Terms

We may change these terms at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means the visitor accepts the updated terms.

Suspension or Loss of Access

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to any part of the site at any time, for any reason, and without prior notice.

California Law Controls

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to rules that would apply another jurisdiction’s law. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in California.

If One Term Is Invalid

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable under California law, that provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed. Every other provision remains in effect.
