The Kansas Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Kansas is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can order a name-based criminal history record check online, through the Kansas Bureau of Investigation. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Basehor
The Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Basehor (filed by the FBI as Basehor Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Basehor: the report and the booking record of each arrest stay with the agency that made it, separate from the court file and from the state repository.
The Bonner Springs Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Leavenworth County, so its arrests are not broken out for Leavenworth County here.
Together, the four agencies in Leavenworth County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 953 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.
The agencies and their counts, year by year, are in Basehor arrest records.
