About this guide

Mayes County, Oklahoma, has about 40,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Mayes County depends on where the incident happened: the Mayes County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Oklahoma Open Records Act requires of it.

This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Mayes County

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.

In Mayes County that is the Mayes 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 carries the Grand River Dam Authority Lake Patrol (state agency), with a records office of its own.

The Mayes County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 51 violent and 235 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 156 arrests for 2025.

What the Oklahoma Open Records Act Requires

Under the Oklahoma Open Records Act the agency must answer a request promptly; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge copying at no more than 25 cents a page. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.

A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 918.825.2171, handles discovery for pending cases.
