Which Agency Holds a Report from Cuming County
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.
In Cuming County that is the Cuming County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.
The FBI's list also places the State Patrol in Cuming County in Cuming County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
