The Oklahoma Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Oklahoma is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can order a name-based criminal history search online, for $15 a search, through the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it. The search is on the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation site.
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Oklahoma County
The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Oklahoma City, Edmond, Midwest City, Del City, Bethany, Choctaw and 11 more cities keep the arrest records in Oklahoma County: 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 two other agencies, one state agency and five campus police departments in Oklahoma County (the arrest records guide names each one); each keeps the records of its own arrests.
Together, the 16 agencies in Oklahoma County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 21,767 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 Oklahoma County arrest records.
