Which Agency Holds a Report from Calexico
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
Inside Calexico that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Calexico Police Department); outside it, the Imperial County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Highway Patrol's Winterhaven and El Centro Area Offices and the Highway Patrol at Calexico Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Facility in Imperial County; a report taken on a state highway by one of them comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries Union Pacific Railroad in Imperial County (other agency), with a records office of its own.
