Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern use of Tazewell County Busted Mugshots. By browsing the guide or using one of its search links, you agree to these rules. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

This is a privately owned reference site. It is not affiliated with Tazewell County, the sheriff, the Tazewell County Justice Center, Illinois DOC, BOP, ICE, or any other government body. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or another FCRA-covered service. The guide points to inmate and jail-record resources in Tazewell County and Illinois; it is not a private-investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.


A Private Records Guide

The site stores no official custody, arrest, court, IDOC, BOP, or ICE records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a document. Instead, it explains the difference between the Tazewell sheriff's custody table, the active-warrant table, the Justice Center's jail information, municipal FOIA routes, and later court records.

Links may lead to the official sheriff, Circuit Clerk, and Illinois agency pages, as well as outside research tools. Illinois FOIA requests are governed by rules including 5 ILCS 140/3 and 5 ILCS 140/6. Those laws apply to the public body holding an existing record, not to this private guide.


Rules for Using the Guide

  • Use the site only in ways allowed by law.
  • Do not use information to stalk, harass, threaten, or intimidate another person.
  • Do not base hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or similar decisions on this site.
  • Do not try to enter systems, accounts, or data without authorization.
  • Do not run bots, scrapers, or automated requests against the site or its partners.
  • Do not interfere with the site's availability or another visitor's use.

No FCRA Screening

Tazewell County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not prepare background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither the site nor its ad partners provides screening services. You agree not to use information from this site or a linked tool for an FCRA-covered purpose, including:

  • Hiring, promotion, retention, or termination decisions.
  • Tenant, housing, or residential screening.
  • Creditworthiness, credit terms, or insurance premiums.
  • Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government program.
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA.

Illinois consumer-protection law, including 815 ILCS 505/2QQQ, concerns criminal-record information and publisher practices. It does not turn this site into a consumer reporting agency.


Outside Sources and Links

The guide links to the Tazewell custody and warrant tables, booking and jail pages, municipal police records offices, the Circuit Clerk, Illinois DOC, federal locators, legal resources, and outside search providers. Those organizations control their own content, privacy practices, fees, terms, and uptime. A link is provided for access, not as an endorsement or guarantee. Read the destination's terms before using it.


Information Provided As Is

The site and its links are offered "as is" and "as available." No warranty is made about:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or current status of any page.
  • Continuous access or uninterrupted operation.
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, vulnerabilities, or security problems.
  • The completeness or usefulness of a partner's search results.

Tazewell custody rows, warrants, court files, and agency policies change. Nothing here is an official statement from a sheriff, jail, corrections department, court, or other government agency. A booking charge is an accusation, not a finding of guilt. Verify the originating record before acting.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Tazewell County Busted Mugshots and the people who operate it are not liable for losses or damages arising from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the site, its content, its search tools, or a linked source.


Your Responsibility

You agree to protect and hold harmless the site and its operators from claims, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, that result from your use of the site, your misuse of information, or your violation of these terms.


Ownership of Site Material

The site's writing, graphics, logos, layout, and code belong to Tazewell County Busted Mugshots or the content partners that supplied them. Do not copy, distribute, modify, frame, or republish that material without written permission, except where applicable law allows it.


Updates to These Terms

These terms may be changed at any time. A revision becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means you accept the revised terms.


Access May End

Access to all or part of the site may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time and for any reason, with or without notice. This includes access restricted to protect the site, its visitors, or its sources.


Illinois Governs

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois. Any dispute must be filed in a court located in Illinois, unless applicable law requires another forum.


If a Term Is Invalid

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. The affected language will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as necessary to make it enforceable.


Questions About Use

Questions about these terms may be sent through the Get in Touch page. Questions about a custody entry, booking record, release, or court outcome must go to the Tazewell County office that holds the record.
