Which Agency Holds a Report from Greenville

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 Greenville that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Greenville Police Department); outside it, the Bond County Sheriff's Office.

The Donnellson Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Bond County, so its arrests are not broken out for Bond County here.
