Which Agency Holds a Report from Oceanport
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
Inside Oceanport that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Oceanport Police Department); outside it, the Monmouth County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Monmouth County State Police in Monmouth County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries Monmouth University and Brookdale Community College (campus police) and Prosecutor in Monmouth County (other agency), each with a records office of its own.
