Terms & Conditions

These terms govern access to Stearns County Busted Mugshots. Using the site means that you accept them. If you do not agree with these terms, do not access or use the site.

Stearns County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and is not affiliated with a government body, the Sheriff's Office, a jail, or a corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. The site is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Service

This is an independent reference service. It does not store official Stearns County records and cannot verify custody, release someone, file a request, or act for an agency. Government data access is governed by the responsible authority and applicable law, including Minnesota Statutes section 13.03 for public-data access and copy costs.

The site identifies resources for Stearns County jail and booking records and may connect visitors to third-party research tools. An official roster, court file, jail, or agency remains the source for confirmation.

FCRA-Prohibited Uses

Third-Party Destinations

We do not control those websites, their content, data practices, availability, or terms, and you should review their terms before using them.


No Warranties

The site and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We make no warranty that the following will be available or accurate.

  • Complete, accurate, or current information.
  • Uninterrupted site access.
  • A service free from errors, defects, or security vulnerabilities.
  • Complete or suitable results from a partner tool.

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement from a Stearns County office or another government agency.
