Which Agency Holds a Report from Port Hueneme
A crime, incident or collision report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, and that agency releases it, not the court, the jail or the prosecutor.
Inside Port Hueneme that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Port Hueneme Police Department); outside it, the Ventura County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Highway Patrol at Coastal Investigative Services Unit, Ventura, the Highway Patrol's Ventura and Moorpark Area Offices and the Highway Patrol at Conejo Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Facility in Ventura County; a report taken on a state highway by one of them comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's agency list also places three state agencies, one other agency and two campus police departments in Ventura County, each with a records office of its own.
