Which Agency Holds a Report from Duluth
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 Duluth that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Duluth Police Department); outside it, the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the State Patrol at Lawrenceville in Gwinnett County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries Gwinnett County Public Schools (other agency) and Georgia Gwinnett College and Gwinnett Technical College (campus police), each with a records office of its own.
The Auburn Police Department, the Doraville Police Department, the Loganville Police Department and one more are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Gwinnett County, so their arrests are not broken out for Gwinnett County here.
