Kentucky Busted Mugshots is privately run and is not affiliated with a government agency, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners provide services for any purpose covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), including credit, employment, insurance, or tenancy decisions. The site points readers toward public arrest-record and booking-photo resources across Kentucky; it is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
What This Service Provides
This is a private information service, not a government record system. It does not store official arrest, jail, DOC, or court records. It cannot confirm current custody, release a person, or file a document with an agency or court.
The site describes public-record sources throughout Kentucky, points to the county site that may cover a local booking, and links to state or outside search tools. Under the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 to 61.884, a request for a public record must go to the public agency that holds it. That law does not turn this private reference site into a records custodian.
Rules for Using the Site
Use the service in a lawful, respectful way. You agree not to:
- Use the site to break a law or violate another person's rights.
- Use information to stalk, harass, threaten, or intimidate anyone.
- Use any part of the service for an FCRA-covered purpose, as barred below.
- Try to gain access to a system, account, or data without permission.
- Run bots, scrapers, or other automated tools to collect or copy site material.
- Interfere with the service, its security, or other visitors' access.
No FCRA Use
Kentucky Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. The site and its ad partners do not provide consumer reports or services for FCRA-covered purposes. You agree not to use any information or tool reached through this site for a purpose regulated by the FCRA, including:
- Making a decision for any purpose covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
- Deciding whether to rent or lease a home or other dwelling.
- Making a credit or insurance decision.
- Considering a license, permit, or eligibility for a government benefit.
- Any other decision for which the FCRA requires a consumer report.
Links to Other Services
Links may lead to Kentucky sheriff and jail rosters, DOC or court portals, county sites, federal locators, legal resources, or independent search providers. These services have their own rules, privacy terms, content, and availability. Kentucky Busted Mugshots does not manage them or guarantee that a link will remain active. Read the outside provider's terms before using its service.
Information Provided As Is
Site material and linked tools are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, no promise is made that they will be:
- Accurate, complete, or current.
- Available without interruption.
- Free from errors, bugs, or security issues.
- Complete in the results returned by a search partner.
Kentucky custody status and government records can change at any time. Nothing on the site is an official statement from a sheriff, jail, clerk, DOC, or other public agency. Confirm important details with the office that keeps the record.
Limits on Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Kentucky Busted Mugshots and its operators will not be liable for loss or damage arising from access to, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an outside service linked from it.
Your Responsibility for Claims
You agree to protect and reimburse the site and its operators for claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs that result from your misuse of the service or your breach of these terms, to the extent the law allows.
Ownership and Reuse
Original text, graphics, logos, and code on this site belong to Kentucky Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, alter, publish, or distribute those materials without written permission, except where applicable law allows it.
Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised from time to time. A new version takes effect when it is posted here. Continuing to use the site after a revision means you accept the updated terms.
Access Limits
The operator may limit, suspend, or end access to the service at any time and for any reason, with or without notice.
Kentucky Law
Kentucky law governs these terms, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be brought in a court with jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Nothing in these terms waives rights that cannot be waived under applicable law, including protections under the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act, KRS 367.170, where it applies.
If One Term Cannot Apply
If a court finds one term invalid or unenforceable, it will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable. The remaining terms will continue to apply.
