This privately owned site is not affiliated with any government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. It and its advertising partners do not offer services for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another purpose covered by the FCRA. The site helps visitors locate Shelby County and Kentucky custody-record resources. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
Nature of the Service
This is an independent reference service with no government authority. It does not store official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, submit a request, or file a court document.
The pages identify the Shelby County Detention Center, its JailTracker roster, the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office led by Sheriff Timothy “Mark” Moore, Kentucky court systems, the Kentucky Department of Corrections KOOL search, and optional federal or ICE locators. Each linked office remains responsible for its own records and decisions.
Acceptable Use Rules
Use the resource lawfully and in a way that does not put another person or the service at risk. The following conduct is prohibited:
- Breaking the law through use of the site.
- Stalking, harassing, intimidating, or threatening another person.
- Using information for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions.
- Trying to access systems or data without permission.
- Running bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
- Disrupting access for other visitors.
No Consumer Reports
This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide a background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service, and its advertising partners do not provide one through this resource. You agree not to apply information from the site or a linked tool to an FCRA-covered purpose, including:
- Hiring, firing, or another employment decision.
- Tenant or housing screening.
- Creditworthiness or insurance pricing.
- Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government benefit.
- Any other decision regulated by the FCRA.
Third-Party Destinations
Outbound links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, legal resources, news outlets, or outside search services. A link is provided for reference only and does not endorse the operator. This site is not responsible for another destination’s content, data practices, terms, prices, or availability.
No Warranties
All content and access are supplied “as is” and “as available.” No express or implied warranty is made about:
- Accuracy, completeness, or current status.
- Continuous or uninterrupted access.
- Freedom from errors, defects, or security flaws.
- The scope, quality, or availability of a partner’s search result.
Custody and court information can change without notice. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office, detention center, court, or another government agency.
Liability Limits
To the fullest extent allowed by Kentucky law, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or other damages arising from access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on the service.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the service or your breach of these terms.
Ownership of Site Materials
Text, graphics, logos, and code on the site belong to Shelby County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. Except where the law allows it, those materials may not be copied, distributed, changed, or republished without written permission.
Revisions to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A change becomes effective when the updated wording is posted on this page, so continued use means acceptance of the revised terms.
Suspension of Access
Access may be limited, suspended, or revoked at any time, for any reason, and with or without advance notice.
Kentucky Law Governs
Kentucky law governs these terms. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Kentucky.
Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective. The affected language will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
Terms Questions
Questions about these terms may be sent through the Contact Us page, which is a private contact route rather than a government records office.
