Sandy, Oregon, in Clackamas County, has about 13,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate).

The Oregon Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Oregon is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: an Open Record Request returns anyone's Oregon conviction record by name, and the subject is told who asked, for $10 a search, through the Oregon State Police. 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 Oregon State Police site.
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Sandy
The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Sandy (filed by the FBI as Sandy Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Sandy: 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 Clackamas County: the Clackamas County Liquor Commission (state agency); the Clackamas County State Police (state police); each keeps the records of its own arrests.
The Tualatin Police Department and the Portland Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Clackamas County, so their arrests are not broken out for Clackamas County here.
Together, the eight agencies in Clackamas County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 10,537 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 Sandy arrest records.
The Crimes Behind the Records: Sandy in 2025
The agency that reports for Sandy had 15 violent and 165 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 District Attorney for Clackamas County
Charges in Clackamas County are filed by the District Attorney, which reviews the arrests of every agency in the county and brings the cases in the Clackamas County Circuit Court.
The office's page SearchSystems verified is at clackamas.us/da (page title: Clackamas County District Attorney's Office | Clackamas County), phone 503-655-8431, 1000 Courthouse Road, Oregon City, OR 97045, Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 30, 2026.
The Sex Offender Registry for Sandy
Registered sex offenders living in Sandy are listed on the Oregon Sex Offender Registry, run by the Oregon State Police. Only Level 3 and some Level 2 registrants are listed online.
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 Clackamas 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 Oregon Public Records Law a county office must answer a request within 15 business days where practicable, after acknowledging the request within 5, and it may charge the actual cost of making the record available. The county records request page SearchSystems verified is at clackamas.us/rm/policy.html (page title: Requesting Public Records | Clackamas County).
