Pennsylvania criminal records are available through many state and county courts as well as law enforcement agencies.  These types of public records usually originate at the law enforcement level through police reports, arrests and other events.  These events are then documented and compiled into criminal records databases.  Many of these databases are then made available to the public. Below you will find several links to resources that can aid you in your public records search.
