The Missouri Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Missouri is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the open record search on the MACHS site lets anyone check convictions by name, through the Missouri State Highway Patrol Criminal Justice Information Services Division. 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 Marshfield
The Webster County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Marshfield (filed by the FBI as Marshfield Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Marshfield: 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.
