Official Suffolk records come from the government office that maintains each file. The contacts below route police reports, court documents, booking information, and Virginia repository histories to their correct custodians. Suffolk Criminal History is a private reference resource and cannot act on a government office's behalf.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private resource cannot retrieve, change, certify, or remove a criminal record, conduct an official background check, or accept a court filing.
