Reviewed and updated October 9, 2026 by the SearchSystems.net editorial team. The arrest counts are the ones each agency reported to the FBI, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026.

Curry County, Oregon, has about 23,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Curry County depends on where the incident happened: the Curry 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 Oregon Public Records Law requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Curry 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 Curry County that is the Curry 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 places the Curry County State Police in Curry County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries the Curry County Liquor Commission (state agency), with a records office of its own.
Reports from the Curry County Sheriff's Office
The Curry County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it reported 159 arrests for 2021.
Its reports come from its records unit, reached through the office at (541) 247-3242. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its jail page, at currycountyor.gov/government/county_sheriff (page title: Welcome To Curry County, OR), phone (541) 247-3242, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 28, 2026.

The three cities the FBI lists in Curry County with a reporting agency of their own:
- Brookings: 214 arrests reported for 2025.

A city on that list is reported separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.
What the Oregon Public Records Law Requires
Under the Oregon Public Records Law the agency 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 request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at currycountyor.gov/government/county_sheriff/records_request_case_re... (page title: Welcome To Curry County, OR).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, (541) 247.3298, handles discovery for pending cases.
