Itasca Arrest Records: Who Makes Arrests, Where People Are Booked and How to Get the Report

Who Makes Arrests in Itasca

The FBI lists Itasca with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as Itasca Police Department. It reported 47 arrests for 2025. A city is listed separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.

Outside the city, the DuPage County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 279 arrests for 2025.

The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in DuPage County: DuPage County Forest Preserve and the Naperville Park District (other); the College of DuPage and Benedictine University at Lisle (campus police).

How Many Arrests Itasca Reports

The FBI publishes every agency's monthly arrest counts on the Crime Data Explorer. These are the full-year totals, all offenses, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026; a year with months missing or not reported is left out.

• Itasca: 47 for 2025, 67 for 2024, 89 for 2023, 0 for 2020 and 0 for 2019; 2021 and 2022 are missing months.

Itasca's 47 arrests in 2025 were down 30 percent from 67 in 2024.

Through August 2026, Itasca reported 10 arrests, against 40 in the same months of 2025.

Across DuPage County, the 27 agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 6,532 arrests between them.

Booking: Where People Arrested in Itasca Are Held

A person kept in custody after an arrest in Itasca is held at the county jail, whichever agency made the arrest, apart from the short stay some city departments' own holding cells allow; a person cited and released at the scene is not booked at all. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and the court file takes over from there.

On an average day in 2022 the jail held about 490 people, down from about 530 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2019, the last year with a capacity figure, was 963 beds, and it ran at 55 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.

How to Find Out About an Arrest in Itasca

Whether someone was arrested in Itasca, and what came of it, shows up in two places: the case index of the Circuit Court of DuPage County, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at dupagecircuitclerk.gov); the State's Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at dupagecounty.gov/elected_officials/state_s_attorney, phone 630-407-8000).

Illinois is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: conviction information is public under the Uniform Conviction Information Act, through the Illinois State Police. That record shows what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.

Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Itasca

The report of an arrest is released by the agency that made it; the jail and the court hold their own records of the same event, but not the report. Under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act the agency must answer within 5 business days, with one 5-day extension, and it may charge copying only after the first 50 pages.

• An arrest by the Itasca police: the police records page SearchSystems verified at itasca.com/FormCenter/FOIA-3/Itasca-Police-Department-Records-Reque...

Itasca, IL 60143, Monday - Friday, 8:00am to 4:00 pm, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 26, 2026.
• An arrest by the DuPage County Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit.
• A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the State's Attorney, 630-407-8000, handles discovery for pending cases.
• The court file of a case that was filed: the Circuit Court of DuPage County, through the court records page at dupagecircuitclerk.gov.
• Your own statewide record: a name-based or fingerprint-based request to the Illinois State Police.
