About Grand County Criminal History

Records from Grand County, Utah are divided among the sheriff, the courts in Moab, the Utah Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Identification, corrections, and the state offender registry. This privately run resource organizes those official paths so a reader can identify the right custodian, find a verified government portal, and understand what each type of record can show.

Why We Built This Site

Grand County records are close together in Moab but remain legally separate. The Grand County Sheriff keeps agency reports and jail records. District and Justice Court clerks hold the filed case and its outcome. BCI maintains Utah's fingerprint-linked criminal-history file, while Utah Department of Corrections handles state custody and supervision information. The Utah Sex, Kidnap, and Child Abuse Offender Registry/Notification website serves a distinct public-notice role. Bringing verified contacts, request routes, fees, and search steps into one reference makes that split easier to navigate.

What You Will Find Here

  • Official access routes: links and contact details for county, court, and Utah record custodians
  • Record explanations: plain distinctions among agency reports, bookings, court dockets, BCI records, and registry profiles
  • Search help: practical ways to use Utah Courts Xchange and other official public tools
  • Self-review information: the BCI Right of Access process and Utah expungement sources

What We Cannot Do

Grand County Criminal History is not connected to Grand County, the City of Moab, Utah Courts, BCI, or any law-enforcement agency. Its role has firm limits:

  • It cannot retrieve an official criminal record or perform an agency background check
  • It cannot submit a GRAMA request, challenge, or expungement filing for a visitor
  • It cannot issue certified dockets, reports, registry records, or rap sheets
  • It cannot interpret a charge or provide advice about a specific legal matter
  • It cannot promise that a fee, office hour, address, or phone number has not changed

An official copy must come from the office that created or maintains the record, such as the sheriff, the court clerk, or BCI.

Search Partners

Some search boxes connect to services run by outside providers. Those providers control their databases, result terms, and prices. A paid signup reached through a tool may produce a referral fee that supports site operations. Grand County Criminal History neither sets those charges nor controls the results returned by a partner.
