Which Agency Holds a Report from Gladewater
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.
Inside Gladewater that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Gladewater Police Department); outside it, the Gregg County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's agency list also places four other agencies and one campus police department in Gregg County, each with a records office of its own.
