What Archer County Booking Records Contain
When someone is arrested and booked into the Archer County Jail, a booking record is created. That record is public under the Texas Public Information Act. Booking releases from Archer County typically include the person's full name, date of birth, physical description, charges, bond amount, arresting agency, and the date and time of intake. Release information is added once the person leaves custody.
Some records are exempt. These include records tied to active criminal investigations, juvenile offender records, medical records, and child abuse investigation files. If a request involves one of those categories, the Sheriff's Office may withhold the information or seek an Attorney General ruling.
An arrest record does not indicate guilt. Per Texas law, a booking record is created when a peace officer places someone under restraint or takes them into custody. Archer County booking releases do not reflect the outcome of any criminal case.
