Neighbor arrested

[bigus_D]

I subscribe to a police report monitoring service that reads the daily incident reports off of the hamilton county sheriff's website and alerts me when anything happens within a specified range of my house. Over the weekend an arrest on a warrant took place right down the street.

Two questions:
1: can I get more detail someplace (if so where) on the arrest and/or warrant?
2: is it any of my business?

The problem is in today's society, everyone wants to know everyone else's business. I think that's because of the ease of getting the information. Unfortunately, if that were in my neighborhood, I'd want to know too but in all honesty, is not our/your business. There are many reasons for an arrest warrant.

It's public information and public business, you have a right to know.

The Police cannot legally tell you but the Court information is Public. There is a web site that for free will give you lots of info. Sorry, I do not use it and do not have the address

Thank You Carmel HP + 1

I decided to call the sheriff's office. No more information about the warrant or arrest is available as it is "not public information".

Thanks for the info all. I will track down a name and see if I can find court info on it.

1. It could be anything from a mundane bench warrant for failure to appear/pay a fine up to an arrest warrant pursuant to an indictment.

2. Not really.

Not sure of who was arrested... I live near Sheridan. Why do you ask, and what gve that away?

 

[CarmelHP]

... as it is "not public information".

Did you ask what kind of information it is if not public. What nonsense, there are about ten Indiana sheriffs who have searchable databases of this "non-public" information online.
