Which Agency Holds a Report from Lenexa
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 Lenexa that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Lenexa Police Department); outside it, the Johnson County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's agency list also places three other agencies and one campus police department in Johnson County, each with a records office of its own.
