Vicksburg, Mississippi, in Warren County, has about 20,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). In Mississippi the public criminal record is the court file, kept by the Circuit Clerk for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records; the statewide criminal history kept by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Criminal Information Center is released only to its subject and to the employers and agencies the law allows. This guide says where each record of a criminal case from Vicksburg is kept and how it is seen.
This guide covers the court file, the statewide record, local arrest records, the crimes behind the records, the prosecutor, sex offender registry, records requests, directory links and common questions.

The statewide criminal history kept by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Criminal Information Center is closed to the public in Mississippi: it is released to its subject and to authorized employers and licensing agencies, and a member of the public uses the court's own case index instead.
To see your own record, the route is a fingerprint-based request to the Criminal Information Center. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at dps.ms.gov/investigation/criminal-information-center/Release-Backgr....
