I don't know if there is a free criminal background check.  Normally you get a criminal background check at your local police station.

That would depend upon the reason you need to find out. If it is in order to hire a person (especially for jobs which involve sensitive information or contact with certain groups, such as children) then your local police department will be able to run a background check on the person.\nIf it is someone in prison, and you have a legitimate reason to find out the reason the person has been incarcerated, the correctional facility itself will be able to give you that.\nIf you are just wondering/nosey you may be able to find out by getting a background check through a private firm such as: \nhttp://www.internet-detective.be/\nor\nhttp://www.crimcheck.com/\n\nThere any privacy laws that protect the individual's personal information, which can make it difficult to find out such info.

go to your local police station and ask them for a background check on yourself.\n\nthere's a form you have to fill out.\n\ni think that if it's not work-related there may be a charge involved.\n\ni've had background checks done on my past before due to work reasons and volunteering my time (i work with children so it's obligatory that you get a background check) but i've never had to pay a fee because i've never been the one who requested it. i'm just thinking that if you're doing it just for the sake of doing it, they may just charge you a fee for their time.\n\nit takes about 10 or 15 minutes max.

The best way is through a bail bondman. They may not alert suspicion of the search. Criminal background checks are usually gotten from the cities, the people are from, and the local government will charge for the report.

There are NO FREE government background checks. \n\nYou can pay anywhere between $25 - $350 for a background check.\n\nIf you really want to know whats in your background, go to your local police or FBI office and ask them to run a check on you --- free to you, but paid for by my tax dollars!

There's no such thing.  You have to pay for background check services.

There are public records available from the courts, and sherriffs office and jails where the records are held. These days a lot of that info is on the web, it is just that you have to find the website of the court, find the website for the sherrifs ofice and so on. The people who charge for background checks are charging because this is what they do. They go through all sorts of different databases and complie the info. Its work. So if you want free do the leg work yourself. Start by listing all the towns this person is know to have lived in. Then find the names of the courts in that jurisdiction, and the names of the police dept or sherrif ofice, and try to find their website. Most have websites these days, but if not call them on  the phone and ask for the procedure for viewing public records.

WWW.crimetime.com     has a section for  free  public records searches  by state. also has  other  very interesting   free portions. its  kinda scary how much you  can find out  about  a person  on here/

There is no place to get a FREE criminal record online. \n\nIf you want a free criminal record check, hike to your nearest police department, show them your identification card or license, and they can conduct a check while-you-wait.

That's a difficult task as it depends on each State's laws.  A lot of sites ask you pay but the information is not always accurate because of too many name matches and they will use free sites to access information.  I found this site once and thought it to be pretty general and had a list for many States\n\nhttp://www.crimcheck.com/freerecords.htm
