Streetsboro, Ohio, in Portage County, has about 18,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). In Ohio the public criminal record is the court file, kept by the Clerk of Courts; the statewide criminal history kept by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation 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 Streetsboro is kept and how it is seen.
This guide covers the court file, the statewide record, local arrest records, the crimes behind the records, sex offender registry, records requests and common questions.

The Ohio Criminal History and Your Own Copy
The statewide criminal history kept by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation is closed to the public in Ohio: 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.

Arrest Records Kept Locally in Streetsboro
The Portage County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Streetsboro (filed by the FBI as Streetsboro Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Streetsboro: 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.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Portage County: Kent State University (campus police); the University Hospitals Portage Medical Center (other agency); each keeps the records of its own arrests.
The Mogadore Police Department and the Tallmadge Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Portage County, so their arrests are not broken out for Portage County here.
Together, the six agencies in Portage County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 2,111 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.
The agencies and their counts, year by year, are in Streetsboro arrest records.
The Crimes Behind the Records: Streetsboro in 2025
The agency that reports for Streetsboro had 20 violent and 273 property crimes reported for 2025; each one is a report on file with it, and each arrest that follows is the start of a criminal record.
The Sex Offender Registry for Streetsboro
Registered sex offenders living in Streetsboro are listed on eSORN, run by the Ohio Attorney General at icrimewatch.net/index.php?AgencyID=55149. The registry is public and can be searched online; the county sheriff registers them.
Registration itself is done in person with the local agency where the registrant lives: the sheriff's office, or the city police in a city with its own department.
Asking an Agency in Portage County for a Record
An arrest report, a booking record or a local criminal history letter comes from the agency that holds it, not from the court.
Under the Ohio Public Records Act a county office must answer a request promptly, within a reasonable period of time, and it may charge the actual cost of copying.
