Yes, but wouldn’t they have had to know what court this guy was adjudicated in? And if they got ahold of a copy, I think it almost would *have* to have been in the system for the clerk to even locate the copy, as they are filed by case number, not name.

" wouldn’t they have had to know what court this guy was adjudicated in?"

I suppose they just made FOI requests in the Co. the schools in and maybe even fished in other Cos. and States. One could start with the arresting PD to pick up a trail. You could probably do a check online for some cash and discover this info.

"as they are filed by case number, not name."

Case number's can be obtained with a name. BD and SSN can allow for less irrelevant hits.

Some states, like Missouri, use a central data base for Missouri and neighboring states. All you have to do is run a background check and if it wasn’t entered in the data base, then you get bupkis. You can pretty much pull that up with a decent background check service on the Internet. In our practice, we use a pretty good service to track down heirs, deadbeat parents, and the like. It can pull it up from any state.
